Paradise

I need cry sometimes
nourishing my mind’s blossoms
rivaling the rain

Laughter permeates
Room for levity remains
tending my garden

The Idealist That I Am

I’ve been deceived by the best
and put to the tests of time
twiddling my thumbs, scheming in stages
When Mr Moon is full
and there’s a chill in the air
I haven’t a care in the world

Here, the summer season is long
and I’m not feeling all that strong
hibernating where it’s cooler inside
spinning a yarn of mammoth proportions
contemplating the power of words
daydreaming we could change our world

Silent Alarmist

Do me a favor & I’ll go you one better…
I’ve dedicated my life to the pursuit of happiness
priming the pump time & again
with laughter & levity of number-one importance
and an underlying layer of mythic probability
bearing the brunt of methodical progress

To Be…

For want of anything better to do
– happily I exist –

Infinity

The past
begging for remembrance
approaches

Half-heartedly hoping
I choose the future
on which to dwell
… all in due time…
yes
… there may come a time …

Fragment… 04 June 2017

I’m easy to please
I don’t ask for much
… but nothing less than your personal best …

What I mean to say…

A tad out of touch with modern devices
& technicalities of so-called advances in comedy…
What passes for humor is laughably amiss
picture-perfect perversion
in a land largely composed of young brats
to be weaned…

I’m quite fond of a blend of truth & conjecture
sweet-n-sour for the mind
my life choice
yet-twisted wit & perception of cause for laughter…

I’ve easily read more school texts than novels
preferring non-fiction
biography – philosophy – psychology
as well as
spirituality & poetry
