Soft And Sweet...
Sweeter Than Honey
A poetess makes love
with her alluring words
and lays them down
upon a dreamscape
silken bed as a covering
for fixated eyes
to slide under them
and softy enjoy
the honeyed enticements
The color of my faith
The color of my faith
Seen in the Heaven of blue
Unlocking
The true potential of my soul
In the stratosphere
In the stratosphere
High above the moon
I hear your spiritual teaching ...

WAS THAT FAIR?
WAS THAT FAIR?
A little bird looked at a hawk
whose high respect filled all the sky.
She liked the power that he showed
and hoped to have the force he owned.
The hawk could do all what he liked.
He killed small birds and had good time.
He had sex far from his own nest
where by his wife he'd not be chased.
The little bird stayed near her house.
She saw a male bird near to her.
She had an intercourse with him
not for enjoyment but morale.
Her male saw her and got enraged,
and he at once divorced his wife. ...

Powerless
How did people write?
By candlelight
Got four candles
Or fork handles
On the go
It's so dark
I don't really know
That emit
A very pleasant glow
But not enough
To easily see
Without elec tricity
Got some classical
On Radio Three
On my wind-up radio
With no battery
Arms ache
For goodness sake!

I Confessed
Auditors have power
A bit like critics
Everyone’s scared of them
And pretend more than usual
A bit like critics
Everyone’s scared of them
And pretend more than usual

Waking Up in the Midst of Drowning
Deep in the gulf, it simmers with discomposure—
This idea that all of these moving parts
should move as one—
A stately perfection.
Wading through shallow seas, replete with
your whispers about failure; feeling with numb hands
for things that scrape and pierce, allowing
the crux to seep out just a little.
How blind were your eyes, sunken in,
brazenly wild for some kind of color or maybe
just some junction to make it all fit.
Too much stepped in, taking the reigns

The 1st Amendment
I love the fact that he was
so powerless, yet, held
the highest office in
the country
it showed the power of
perception/deception
you could feed them lies and
they’d go about their days
thinking they were
geniuses
the mainstream
“revolution”
this is how dumbasses
found meaning in their
stupid lives
“Hate speech” was the
best speech because
it exposed everybody’s
lies
tv show versus
real life
you tell me

The War of Molecules
The whirling world is war.
In the darkness the star -
Fights against strenuous gravity
To hold itself together
and not fall into event horizons
that loom - across spaces like black lights of doom.
Even within the star -
there is war -
as molecules move about in frenzies
and furore -
shifting into themselves and transforming
into new forms with new functions...
And still at war -
bursting forth – in nameless anonymities
criss crossing and drawing strange symbols
seen only by...
In the darkness the star -
