He was famished hunger embodied
To many solely an idea, unempirical concept,
To him a physically painful reality as the groans

Fluttering eyes twitching … CONTINUE READING »
The Accident
Her smile used to be contagious
She ignored how to display sadness
She had been taught not to disturb

Grateful meadow
Each time I cut her peculiar scents
She releases inebriate my being.
Vulnerable and exposed her torn skin

Strength and Responsibility
With strength human beings survive
Enduring myriad hostilities roaming
On a land receiving our existence.
With strength survivors evolve, adapt
To their surroundings ingeniously moulding
Utensils apt to assist our settling, build
A home.
With strength rules are written defiance… CONTINUE READING »
Lost in Greenwich
The times I lost my way I reminisce
Ensnared in meanders crossing bridges
Between realities and dreams.
The night I met you an oneiric echo
Of what might have been as I struggle
To recompose the pieces of what never … CONTINUE READING »
