Gypsy Cabin Blues
Holding tight to her green and arid sierra shawls,
she peers over a fresco valley set in leprechaun gold.
Like a megalithic Buddha she rests on a boulder's shoulder
beneath a thulian sky lit by a gingerline disco sun.
Trading A Soul
Home is in your arms.
And warmth is in your laughs
Right where peace lost its charms.
And logic laid down its arms.
Mirrored Tones
Taste is a matter of trust in one's

where catch is a lease
that makes you please
and release is a pain that takes away peace.

Sound of Silence
Catastrophe is my duration
disseminating destruction.
Confusion is my interval
factoring mistakes’ integral.

Lake Above an Ocean
