One Who Closes His Eyes In Prayer

One who closes his eyes in prayer
Closes his eyes not to see
Not to see the other side
The dark side of the supplication
If it be a disgrace
In the eyes of the Court
Which will pass judgment
On you one day...

Still

I still hear my heart
Beating loudly like drums
Calling you at every instant
Searching for you
From place to place
Lost in time and shadow
Traveling through
A never-ending path
That leads to nowhere...

To The Woman In The Shadow

If it ceases to be yours
When you cease to be you
Then what is yours
And who are you
To tell me where to go
Or where I cannot sleep
Or what you own?
Sorry so-called love,
Try the next guy...

Waiting

Muse of exhibitions
Harp on inhibitions
Play your screeching lire
Hen-pecking chanticleer...

Not full circle come round
To my suitor yet band
Rings on fingers and phones
Pursue with mocking tones...

Allusion

There is a contradiction
In wanting to be understood
And finding no explanation
Worthy of the question...

Allusion is not evasion
But a hint to discovery
Revealing broader perception
Than stiff definition....

Fear Of Flying

The bird that flew so fast
It could not see the path
And was carried off in flight
Leaving the wind far behind...

So far above the course
It traveled with such haste
That fear stopped the flapping
And it came crashing down, down...

As A Poet I Have Discovered

There's a contradiction
In wanting to be understood
And finding no explanation
Worthy of the question...

Illusion is not evasion
But a hint to discovery
Revealing broader perception
Than stiff definition....
Simple observation
That may help my recovery...

In The Song Of Your Smiles

In the song of your smiles
Is hidden all joy...
So, let me savor every lyric
Though my life
Will never last that long
And so all my memories are
With all the shadows you are
In the water and in the air
And I give myself to you
As a shadow...

Keep The House A Little Darker

Keep the house a little darker
Let the curtains remain drawn-still
It is not right to leave the door open....
Wear your robe
And in the safest chamber of the house
Recall the unlearned prayer.....
He always enters
Through closed doors...

One Evening I Go To A Shepherd's Hut

One evening I go to a shepherd's hut
How quiet it is,
And when it becomes dark,
The only sound-
The soft breathing of lambs...
The smell of grass and sweet milk
And when you look out,
You will see trees in the wind
That move silently-only this...
