Bathing in a golden drought as far as eyes can see

Dying in a cold dead wind

I hold a book

And the book is against

 You

It holds imagination and life

With buckets full of empathy

Pouring out of every page 

Nothing to do with you …

-You rollout empty words

Slogans

A tyrannical book cover

I hold this book

And it hates you

Confrontation, with no understanding

arguments, with no solution

silence, that is deafening 

the beginning predicted our end because we chose the easy route

instead of talks of our lives we chose to silence each other with our lips.

instead of listening and understanding, an intimate touch took away our problems.

For at time.

I went down to town on a whim for a show

And although I know what to expect

I can never guess what exactly I’ll find

I go into it blind, or relatively so

And although I don’t often think of you

It’s true that I do whenever I’m here

Whether you’re far or near, I’ve got no idea

But it’s clear to me that I anticipate

Tumbling into you in whatever state

I find you or myself ...

Sweet Vine, how sour you are

The stars shine brighter to sky’s delight

And to my surprise, I feel better

I feel unleashed, untethered

And whether or not I fold

To the hold Sweet Vine has

Is beyond my control

I understand the soul needs relief and

I understand it needs some deep unseated

Sense of power and control over the mind

It’s hard to find a natural source

Old Father Time, can I go now?

I don’t know how the day drags its heels

And feels its way down the halls

Of shopping malls blindly

To find all is empty and dry

And doesn’t try to hurry itself when needed.

Old Father Time, won’t you slow down now?

My furrowed brow aches and throbs

Odd jobs linger and hang around

While you run abound without me

I see you pick the p...

i love the rain

i love the pouring sound of tears from the skies

i love the sound of thunder shouting

“here you go”

i love the cold wind that clears the air

but there is a vendor down the street

who cannot sell today

there are homeless souls

sleeping outside under the rain tonight

there are homes collapsing

in the towering hills

I walked toward home,
yet with every step I took,
the distance between home and me grew.

I had only recently understood
the meaning of the word fitoor,
so let me begin again

For me, fitoor and home were the same.

I searched for my fitoor
in the hope of finding them
the gaze, the laughter,
my comfort, my reassurance.

I walked toward it,
ran toward it,
even crawled.

But with ...

Cowering in a corner

You've never felt smaller

Like a yellow tiger cub

You'll never get the rub

A rejuvenating 38 degrees it used to be

Now it's hotter than hell, too hot to see

It's the culture you see

No longer here is it for me

Like a cow queuing for the electro end

Like a Chicken at the dawn of its last morning

Like a bird failing at its first calling

Eyes open to see but for what?

Four blank walls and weighted lids and

The same old places as when we were kids

Only the weather changes their faces

From grey to green and the footpath traces

The same familiar routes

The mud that covers my boots

Is dry but not scrubbed away

They’ll just get dirty again anyway

It is no sight at all.

Hands reach out to touch but for...

The merchant rises before the dawn

And sees the darkness fading

For another day of trading

An existence so degrading

In its repetitious gloom

And soon it will be time to start

The grinding shift, its end so far

Away from where the two arms stand

Into the strand and down the hall

Up the escalator to the end of the mall

And the sliding doors, they open wide

The seams split from the land to the sea

And dreams of still waters die

The lie of open arms disintegrates

In the slither of the lullaby 

Of reasons and rhymes set to rock us to sleep

But sheep are aimless in a boundless heath

And see no route so dreaded fate ensues 

As the ocean follows the moon

And soon we’ll all be keeping score
