Lovely eyes
do please give away
those lovely eyes
your eyes are a beauty
so lovely
the gift I want from you only
as you look into my eyes
a wave of emotion does in me arise

God is Not Evil

I wrote a letter to God
On a lonely Tuesday evening
My heart I signed on it
With faith and smoke it flew.

I got a dove and laughter
After a smote from the rich grey beard
The sky eyes turns red as if to fight
And the rain drenched me.

He has eagle eyes and long hands
Like a shepherd to his sheep’s
Even if we experience open sore of faith
God is not evil.

Sincerity Bathtub

He cried enough
To fill a bathtub
With his tears

And then lay there
Soaking
His heart & limbs
In salt and sadness

Some called it
Wallowing

But he wondered
If some people
Had ever even met

Their own
Broken heart

Josef K.'s Dream

Compelled to wander the oceans of night
lifted merely by the clapping of wings
a terror from above in spheres of light
the mousefolk tremble, the maiden sings
a symphony in motion intending death
no comfort of Love in the Judgement breath

No shackle nor link of silver or gold
the promise of freedom beneath
no statement of truth nor truth to behold
the statue walks humble in shadow & wreath
the ledger by slate in circles of fire
the volcanic kingdom of unjust desire

Who will survive? [Tanka]

fittest will survive
if believed to be doctrine
will man or nature?

it's a writing on the wall
some choose to turn a blind eye

DEVORCE

yes I have a lesson for my little brother
when you are my age your father is not gonna be with you mother,
and you need to know that this is not on you
its okay buddy that is how I felt too.

Copycat

im a self describing a self
a face on a liquid surface
a plasticity
a brain
a three pound infinity
always remodeling itself
and making new copies

a copy
of
a copy
of
a copy

a massive accumulation of copies
each a slight distortion
from it's original eminence
a history of minute alterations
all subtle deceptions

Life is just a Mirage

Beautiful oasis you share with all
life is one such a fantasy too
we all know that today we are
tomorrow we may not be
'twill be an imagination
a real illusion may call it thee

but life transforms
from diamond to steel
and
in the cauldrons of times heat
we all melt too
what of a superficial mirage say you

We are as naught
all hope you knew
as we approach it
the further it moves

life so does evaporate too
a hallucination is what we all are

Me, we, he, she and you

Beauty

They tell me i'm beautiful
Thats how how i'm recognised by the society
Nobody seems to know me, rather than my beauty
I'm confused with beauty but thats not me
I'm a woman , i'm strong and i have good inside traits
Call me by my name
Call me the woman, not beauty
Beauty fades but i dont
Dont mistake me with beauty

Fledgling flight.

When her flight clicks to a shut
Worm clutched
The chorus begins, that pronounces:
“Bring it in, in bring in!”
I am the more worthy,
I am the greater to sing
Out of this cacophony of chirrups
To me, to ME, you bring!

Survival is by numbers,
And those that sing their loudest worth;
Gain the fatter worms
Drawn out of the earth,
Arched across the sky in
A perpetual evolutionary flight,
By those who will soon outlive
Their wings.
