as i speak
to the phantom woman
i have a prediction:
first song will be Bon Jovi
Living on a Prayer
that will be good
but no
even better
a guitar intro fills the air
as energetically ecstatic
as Manzarek's keyboard
on Light My Fire
spiritual rocket fuel
a childhood portal
into the vastness
of the glittering night sky
twenty years later
I could still fly
Sweet Child O' Mine
jolted me
enlivened me
to something
everything
beyond the mundane
cosmic...

Crystalin Water
An old Friend's Poem," one of her best " 2017."
Crystaline water
cleanse my cluttered mind
weaving your coarse
leave the chaos behind
Riparian retreat
where willows embrace
finger leaf trails
shows a rippling trace
In mirrored depths
your secrets abide
the predators hunt
the hunted, hide
Amorphous shadows
neath diaphonous stream
caught for a moment
by incandescent sunbeam
Prowling...

A Poet's Delight
A Poet's Delight
My delight is right
It is a poetry to write
Something very light
A bird's flight
A pure wide landscape
A blinding mirror of snows white
What the delight
In a pretty sight
A winged kite swimming
Within ethereal flight
What a delight,!!!
In the long Summer's...

Day Star
Not too cloudy
and the snow wasn't crowding the sky.
Not rushing,
as if it was concert goers
to an average band,
with not many couples.
Mostly the bored, or the lonely
Meandering, towards music
because it blanketed their thoughts
and today was a good day
for a little more warmth.
The snow came down to melt itself
against the earth.
It doesn't die. It turns green
and comes back up, through the dirt.
Your bright green kite (plastic?)
Cutting an angled rectangle
through the perforated snowflakes ...

The Worth Of Life We Are Given
The Worth Of Life We Are Given
Sometimes, we need to stay away, we need to find a place,a moment of peace,
We need to consider things from another point of view. judge the yeses and noes, of our own decisions.Have we learnt the lessons from former actions, or from a set of inborn thoughts..Have we done the best thing, opted for the best choice....reacted at the very right time against actions.That tested our self defence, our self esteem and self control.The time runs like electricity in the wire, it consumes our strengh, our energy, and ignites our vocational bulbes,
Sets...

Apologia
For Christmas this year my father gave me a collection of sentimental tems I hadn't seen in years. They were in a box with a photo of my Grandpa Pete and my Dad on the back porch of the house I grew up in on the front of it. The box included family photos, a framed serenity prayer with pressed flowers behind its glass, my beloved Grandmas rhinestone jewelry, and the bible I used on the rare occasions we went to church. I was completely overwhelmed by what the box contained, and that my Father was the one to present it to me completely broke me. I have the small leather bible in front of me...

We can go through cancer, my dear!
Don't give up, my dear sunshine;
your pain is like a knife to me,
your weary face expecting times,
when healthy you will be.
You are a hero on a quest
to regain your cozy smile,
and may your eyes find rest
but because they are alive;
beyond the lengthy struggle,
when each second is eternal,
hopeful trouble; gently huggle
me, in my love maternal.
Love that won't give up;
for we will find the root...
when the horror stops
you'll win a fresh route... ...

In My Teleplay
Deep in the zone
In my Teleplay
My rules
My game
It's a fair play..
Gog's and Magog's
My mob
My goons
I don't need me a place..
Don't mind if what I will say's a taboo
Play by play..
Dozing inside the pouch of a kangaroo
Day by day..
I'd rather not stay in Waterloo
I said I don't need me a place
While the Sunshine's I failed to make my hay
Simply no room putting on any blame
In this game we got no fair play
All one...

All because of you
You are my favorite song played in the morning
My heartfelt prayers heard by God at night
The index finger that softly dries away my misguided tears
You are the ceilings that talks me calmly through my harrowing fears
The mirror that looks back at me to tell me how much I slay
Even when my mind plays vicious tricks on me, telling me I do not
You are the detox that rids my body of all things that are not good for me
You are important to me like the strings of a guitar
For without those strings
I will cease to hear the beautiful masterpiece...

Trap Queen
A little girl young and fragile. Weak to the bones, Light as a feather.
Taken away from her family at 4.
Filled to the core with hurt and anger she grew,
Standing by her she has a crowd of “fans”,
The flow of daily compliments come flowing in message after message,
The little girl who was never noticed, who was so innocent,
The flow of history has corrupted her,
The daughter of crip born into the danger of the hood,
The ghetto is woven into her DNA
Overcoming the danger, moving into a better neighborhood,
Leaving her childhood behind growing...

The flow of history has corrupted her,
The daughter of crip born into the danger of the hood,
The ghetto is woven into her DNA
Overcoming the danger, moving into a better neighborhood,
Leaving her childhood behind growing...

you got that
kaleidoscopic sex appeal
draped in a
phunkified diva-esque demeanor

your aroma leaves 'em mystified
like a misty knight
your beauty is unprecedented for sho

not just for show
simply outstanding
standing out among a crowd
of homogenized hens
all readin from the same script
quotin the same books
you wrote your own book
crafted your own look ...
