poetry of consciousness

Beneath the arcade

It only happens on stormy days,
do not ask of me why, I do not know.
Unknown neighbours have matter to throw
out where it does not belong.
The garbage bins are three hundred
metres away, yet paraphernalia is ridded… CONTINUE READING »

Unfollowing

Following the unfollowed
to follow fellow folks, felons
as I, guilty for spending life
hunting followers who may scent
flourishing fables made of fabric
filled with formidable potential.
Zestfully fleeing mafficking faces
futzing in mass lobotomy, quaffing
media fraudulent sloppiness,… CONTINUE READING »

Globalisation epilogue

Humankind, roaming tribes,
in search of food and natural
resources to live, procreate,
ensure survival of the species.
As it encounters strangers
to its likes, it fancies the unknown,
mingling, giving birth to new heirs,
original unparalleled half-castes.

Polished shoes

The bold cupola at his summit reflects
neon lights from bulbs above, crowned
by precious thin silver hair, barely cascading
over a wide and wrinkled forehead.
Two dense detached bushy arches linger
to their original dark brown tone, only a … CONTINUE READING »

Pains

Pains to remind
privileges of heath.
Hard, calcified teeth
in jaws to bite off
what you can chew
to fuel the body until
shooting throbs carried
by nerves to the brain
make you plead
for tears to conquer relief.
Skeletons … CONTINUE READING »

Summer garden

Fences enclose sweaty trees
of palms, apricots and figs,
while dried-up roses suffer
heat, next to stubborn hortensia
striving, to blossom despite
anomalous murderous drought.
An infant baobab travelled
all the way from Dakar to be
planted in a pot … CONTINUE READING »

The show

Dynamically unveiling an expanding carpet
Of hydrogen particles coalescing to spring
Stars to grow, spin and sparkle, explode
In blinding invisible light, thrusting golden
Debris forming rocky spheres, aligning
To revolve finding balance finely tuning
And allow life to burst … CONTINUE READING »

Heat

When hypnotised eyes only
search for signs in depths of dilated
pupils of he who would be able
to drive you blind;
When courage overtakes you
unafraid and tempted enveloped
by veils of overwhelming heat
craving for inebriated contact;
When … CONTINUE READING »

Equal measure

As humankind evolves in time
What used to be primitive tribes
Guarding territory, people, progeny
And food, have mutated into
Governments flaunting flags and political
Agendas to fulfil, within four years,
Drafted on greed, implemented
By concocting fear.
Rulers hence … CONTINUE READING »

Robot Genesis 126

If only I had a brain I would wander
The lands, discover my surroundings,
Emulate nature to my benefit, replicate
The mastery of lightning, sparkle
Fires to keep warm.
Draw in caves to communicate, invent
Words and a language, grasp … CONTINUE READING »
