A Note to Self: August 18th
Going by, day by day;each, inescapably, does end.I meet that bittersweet dismay,& shake despondency — my friend,For I’m a man of dust & clay.Of shattered dreams & hopes misspent.Of hoping, dreaming, must I pay,or of my limits stay contend,But choose I pave my frontiers way,& choose I break yet to transcend.For much as ache they…

The Glory of Icarus – I
Fly not too high, too close to sun;You know you are my only son.Remember that neither you are— nor shall you be,as near & far as Love can be;light years from sea,light years from sun.My Son, you are… my only one. But one you are — of bones & blood.My son, alone, you are no…

Beating to the End
Being upon my timely yore,Laid back, then, one lovely lore,Which if known would obscureEvery chance of ill & cure.But does deeply rest in clay,& in hearts through night & day. Held through the walls of wombTo the biding halls of tomb.& beating at the edge of craze;reaching, leaving, stops & ways.Beating at the shores of…

Upon Bangor Mountain
There is a voice that I can not deny,Coloured into the hues of a lullaby.Denying everything;All the joys and the nothings,all the symphonies of the passers-by. There is a voice that shall not die —Whispers into each goodbye,screaming hellosunto a starless sky of blues.Uttering breeze of a bashful muse.Then unto the doves of a budtime…

A Conversation Within
Have my way, transcending into me, A whimsy, must we stay dreadfully — obscure into an esoteric song, a prayer to a lonesome sea That pours out of a forlorn — forlorn shore, That pours out of a secret— secret door Into thine myriad spirit, thine dreary sea, Into thine forgetfulness, thine secret that I be. I…

Allegory
O’ I’d leave you at a standstill; Fatherless — orphaned at infanthood. I’d leave you — not at will; Severed, estranged, misunderstood, In a life, you won’t fulfill. & even if you would, they would do you no good. O’ my son if I could unbear you then I would, & leave you — ink…

The purpose of Life
To stay, while searching for home. To roam the streets of intricacies, & the alleys of intimacies, & never lose home, while losing way. To find, The ones within yourself. To embrace & to kiss each insurmountable distance, & to conjure subsistence out of void. To face the demons, you avoid. While pack all what…

The Happy Hour
Cease not to seize the happy hour passing by; Those, who drench all the marrow of today, own tomorrow. Sail deep, until Life’s own horizon turn nigh. Sigh every breath of death — each unending “Goodbye” & breathe the birth of each “Hello” — each new tomorrow. Cease not to seize the happy hour passing…

I shall meet you
Faraway, From those times I used to love; From the times I used to laugh, & those lonely nights where all the best of yesterdays laid in tomorrows. & where joy became a myth; an unspoken secret. There — Faraway, I shall meet you. Faraway, From the noises, From the noisy rhymes & noisy times…

Song of a Wanderer
Tell me the reasons why; my life is just a sigh within thy breath. Tell me the reasons why; I can no longer die If it’s thee I miss. I can no longer kiss the watchful moon goodbye. I can no longer hug The sleepy sun passing by. Tell me a reason why; I can…

Fatal
Life of my Life, Soul of my Soul, I am experiencing a self much more than me. I am becoming of one heart, of one mind… Yet of one heart, & of one mind have I been split into half, & into half, I’ve lived so far. So far have I not been through thee. So…

On the Nature of Light
And, if the soul is about to know itself, it must gaze into the soul. –Plato, Alcibiades. Have I ever seen you, Darkness, conscious within mine? Have I ever roamed those dim & dreary roads of thine? Have I been thou & thou—me? Have we become what we may need to be? I know…

Dance
Dance, & let all the stars envy the nights within you prance, Outgo the forces of distance & time & chance! Incise my skies, Chastise me but Despise despair, Unweave the eves of cleft beliefs, of hollow prayers… Still all the demons that may seal the moon within. Steal every place & space you’ll leave…

O’ Thou who look nature in the eye
O’ Thou who looks nature in the eye, & say: “Oh why thou sky thou sky” & say: “Oh wow thou hurt me—how! Erase me or embrace me Now! Lest I fall into sweet rupture, That bitter rapture… O’ Thou who looks nature in the eye, To see all that do you mystify, To see…

The Broken Locks
The broken locks that kept him from himself at bay. The frozen clocks; It told him that he went astray. Away from grace… A traceless trace To lead him down the dreary docks. Of what he can & can’t embrace. That man who’s made of mud, & clay, & fire & rain & peace & pain &…

Come, Gentle Night
Inspired by an amazing piece of music “Come, Gentle Night” by Abel Korzeniowski from the album “Romeo & Juliet” released in 2003. Come, gentle night, come, O’ night so silky, O’ so blushing. Let morning be gone once and for all & never re-arrive. Enjoy this “Now” for “Now” is only now so…

Let me speak
Let me speak to you, a profound talk, Let our souls just take a walk. Let us reach in words the sky. Let us share us, you and I. Never let the meanings die. Never let emotions sleep. Let me find no end to your spirit, No matter how I’ve got too deep. Let me…

Oblivion
Out of the sea the hymns of nostalgia were resonating as one Singing of a Love unto the garish skies. Out of the sea the hymns of nostalgia were resonating as one Thinking of all the wherefores and whys,
