From my thoughts to my lips and in my veins,
I am sickly besotted with you. Without you
I’m in pain. I crave for you from dawn to dusk,
Finding relief only in my slumbers, when I dream
Of others, … CONTINUE READING »
Babel Thoughts
Anthropology suggests there was a time
When no communication was spoken by men,
Merely embryonic sounds to express
Primitive thoughts, until development called
For evolution to inspire, words holding meaning.
Religion narrates archaic stories of Babel,
Of a common tongue … CONTINUE READING »
The Dealer
The place was the unexpected carefree host
Of several tipsy nights wetted
By friendly toasts and temporary infatuations,
Lasting the duration granted
By gulping red clepsydras measuring
Time with the flow of inebriating substances.
My passion alas soon drove to … CONTINUE READING »
Beguiling blessings
Come with me, I’ll show you where
The wonders sparkle beguiling blessings
Arousing perceptions of gratitude innate

‘Should have’ and ‘would have’, enemies
Of the Self.
Though many were the times
I should have, would have known

To becoming … CONTINUE READING »
Observation
Little difference between
Cherry blossom and birth,
Of tadpoles, lions and stars,

Everything in motion
Set to evolve,

As the Universe expands,
Creating distances
Amongst objects striving
To reunite,
As … CONTINUE READING »
The Magician
Traces of tiredness excavate deep into his skin,
Daily, as I enter with a volatile smile, weekly,
In search of my dose of earthly blood, pretending
I am blind to my perception, neglecting my intuition.
Assumptions lead to consider he’s … CONTINUE READING »
Tremors
Trembling he entered the bar with a cheerful smile,
In a dark green suit and a Panama hat.
Sun-dried wrinkles on his face and hands
Dotted with brown liver spots, passage of time.
Buttons of his white shirt open to … CONTINUE READING »
