Maker O Mine!

People are ugly,
Glad you changed yours
it gave me sheer spiny gripes
I felt the electricity blow me up

my next poem will be worse,
verse for verse
now you don
an MA in English hat

my maker too was an Aussie
but unlike you
he picked me up across the Internet
when I was in USA
and now I salute him
as much as I do you..

S U P P L E M E N T

hoarse surround
glisten as you swallow
your diver dive
sliding through the horror

fracture me
curled you asked
basking in watery
light
and you wept

I could hear the traffic
jangled and bold
flashs like broken bone
this pain that eats me

Devoured
and a kiss
tingle dance

you sigh
the black depth
pupil wide

across the great divide
you slip into
Lah lah Land

barefoot and naked
and the snows fall
like broken wishs
from a ravaged heaven

Çaço, Man of the Morning Star, Canto 25

Canto Twenty Five ~ It is a time beyond the recall of common men.
The mighty race of men who call themselves Clovis have committed a crime of near unfathomable consequence. In a region of their land unperceived by those lesser men they have enslaved for thousands of years, the Clovis stand convicted by the Angel Host that made them.
Their crime was of such a cataclysmic nature that the parameters of punishment have been determined by the Creator Himself.
No longer willing to acknowledge a king, as equals they wait the month’s long debate of The Host.

Me Refashioned

There you are
A moment ago you wasn’t there.
Then as if out of nowhere you came
Making this grand entrance into my life.
Like an imp, a gnome
Like little Miss nobody who never was
But always were.
From the very first time we got connected
you have hunted me
chased me as if I was a renegade
like a maroon I dwelt in the inner most part of the forest
even with look-outs barriers and fortifications
you raced to my heart…to my core
these defences no match for your determination
for there you had to be….

ONE MORE TIME :portuguese and English UPDATED

PALAVRAS DE AMOR
Fala-me palavras
De amor
Só uma vez mais.
Nâo deixa morrer
Em meu coração
A saudade

Fala-me palavras
De “sempre”.
Não deixa cair
Meu coração
Em obscuridade

Só uma vez mais,
Meu amor,
Não me deixa esquecer
Jamais…

ENGLISH:

WORDS OF LOVE
Speak words of love
To me
Only one more time
Don’t let my longing
Die in my heart

Speak words of “forever”
Don’t let my heart fall
Into the dark

Poet of Today

Tomorrows Poet Today
''I greatly love the way you express yourself
and
the varied works you create
a joy to read poetry
for what it is.................
a great poet says...

Then I Shall Live... Again

When the chosen time has come
Bright light shall take
The crown from darkness
Then I shall live... Again

I Stand

I stand at the commencement of an unlit tunnel

You show the light
and
only then my blinding eyes can see
a person like you
in the far distance .
amazing how you unveil me
with the gentility of a soul
we two depict
as a feeling that one may beget
of being whole

no one will credit me
and
as you say you,
for our visionary poetry
and
Nobels are never given posthumously
so we both stand
at the two ends of the darkened tunnel,
you shine your torch at me
as I reflect

Anti thesis

govern love
heart shaped box
I lock her in

Dying embers

My fingers coarse,wrinkled and aged slithered over the warm smooth skin of my lover
Light shafted in through the cracks in the curtains
All my emotions untethered like a wildhorse on the prairie
Yet the love splintered in a thousand pieces after a timeless embrace
Love had departed and the light had eternally been extingushed
Was this restless fixation forever lost ?
Or was the embers still burning deep inside?
Should my love endure or was it time to search?
For a new and innocent love?
