Time
Time lies like a guardian angel,
lost in a past
that shall leave a trace,
safe within the pleats
of this life's fabric.
Look and remember
a white poppy's petal
that brushes gentle as night
across our peaceful faces
with silken care.

Scheherazade

the evil emir like a bleeding lion,
his twisting, vengeful face now full with
requieted lust; your wisdom shines
