You're a silver- tongued creature!
I heard
the war of echoes
in the stillness
of the night-
each of those evenings
i wept
together with the blanket
of longing,
i felt
the coldness
as
it absorbed me
like
any prejudiced waves
Rage, rage
in the dying of the night
you're a silver-
tongued creature
full
of might
I heard
the war of echoes
in the stillness
of the night-
harrowing
into that gentle
good night.
Loving my Dad!
Happy Birthday Pap!
I hope that someday,
you'll stumble
upon my blog so you'd know
how grateful I am as your child.
I Love You so Much!
You're the best Dad in the world.
P.S
i promise to pedal with you SOON!
i promise to pedal with you SOON!
Love,

What must not be mentioned: The Barbarity of certain Images*
(a renga written during Tim Lantz's 2nd birthday)**
I saw her with a curve on her lips-
the kind of anonymity of pleasure
i felt once again
and there was a dove
as it flapped its wings
and drew closer to her
but she was writing something,
she never noticed the grace of the bird
as it stooped
she was busy and still
adoring the silence of words
and the elegance of each script
i knew she was dancing
with the pain
of melancholy
i was distant-
a window glass and five couples
between us
i walked away,
as if i knew what
she had written-
veering away
i tried to catch
another trip.

You have the option of ignoring the truth until that moment when the dead begins inserting messages inside your dreams*
Say it softly, whisper it gently
the words you ought to say
a sweet serenade
before my deathbed
I will listen to you
like any forgotten cadaver-
like one
of your forsaken lovers
I know no accuracy
as I lived with
vagueness
and ambiguity,
but now,
you're standing before me
shedding beads of tears,
how do I know
that I'm not somebody's tomorrow
(I waited for so long)
like the paradise
I once wished we were into-
alive in a yesterday.
A person has a right to protest and complain and to yearn bitterly for release*
Where can I rest?
in a land of famine,
none at it's best:
not under the mourning sky,
devoid of sweet hopes-
of still moonshadow
not in the farmfields,
not in the scars of history
not in the battlefields
not under the whimpering
voice of democracy
Where can I rest?
not in your pride
away from your sight-
far from any emotional
dilemmas
Where can I rest,
when all I can see is dirt black
where there are shadows
running everywhere
where there is
no room of my own
where there is
only me
and my
solitude.
Verity
i was silent
for the past few days:
i recalled images, recoiling-
Picasso's Guernica,
Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray
and Piet
Mondrian's
Boogie-woogie
there were
scratches of lines,
silhouettes of faces
scattered on the canvas-
an incarceration from
the world of verity
i felt chaos screaming
inside my head
so, i sat like Auguste Rodin's
The Thinker
while some random images
squeezed me
I felt like I was a voyeur
figuring-out
abstractions
and ambiguity,
I pondered.
Hearing
the ticking of the clock
loudened-
it echoed,
and for a few seconds
a lady,
shrouded
by her own cravenness,
in silence,
would have wanted to
die another death.
