Expect me not to be there
when you need me the most.
Expect me not to empathise with you
when I can not appreciate your problems,
when you forget to be grateful
for the blessings bestowed upon you,
oblivious to … CONTINUE READING »
I AM DROWNING IN THIS CLOUD
Hazy minds of nights of pleasure, serendipitous encounter,
Shivers down my spine caress my body, from the inside,
My skin feels softer, light glows warmer, embraced am I in mist.
Deafened by the lustful hours nothing seems to exist

SHE DANCES THROUGH TIME
Four point five billion years ago the birth
of what would become our mother,
molded by violence, incessant shelling
of cosmic bodies drowning her in fire.
She abided, danced and swirled
gracefully embracing the elements attacking her,
reducing heat to … CONTINUE READING »
WHAT IS HOME, IF NOT THE LAND WE’VE KNOWN?
Our first breath—a scent, a touch, a mother,
A cradle, a shelter, a lair, a land, a home.

In minds that will worship this hearth in their ode.
The cubs we were we grow… CONTINUE READING »

She is delicate, impulsive, powerful and fragile,
The fertility of … CONTINUE READING »

Rivulets of salty droplets englobing violence
Witnessed by eyes that would wish to cleanse
Themselves from visions of misery, deplorable
Calvary of heinous conflicts, impuissant, words
Wit and wisdom are unable to … CONTINUE READING »
COME BACK TO ME
I search for you everywhere, expect
To find you in my bed when I awake, opening
Eyes to the glowing brightness of the day,
Stretching my arms, body contortions, yawning
Under the warmth of enveloping white sheets
Scented by the … CONTINUE READING »
LET THERE BE LIGHT
Mesmerised by blindness, I see it everywhere.
It does not like to be seen and chases me
Torments me and stabs me with silvery blades,
They glint as I bleed
Emerald sorrow for benighted living beings,
Blind to graceful blessings … CONTINUE READING »
JUST SOMEONE
Someone once was there, wandered,
Perhaps more than someone many,
Walked the woods purposely aimlessly
Seeking something without quite knowing what,
Yearning for a drop, of warmth, respite,
A connection, an encounter, a welcome,
A gentle invitation, into another’s realm.… CONTINUE READING »
