the loose end of poetry

Phenix

In rivers that flow
We surely don’t know
Which direction
Our future
Will go.

End your search
Define your life
Detail your forgiveness
Unwind your strife.

Venice

A magical world
Seeks
To entrust its beauty
And to enlist its children
In avenging its
Honor.

The edge of laughter
Inside
And then out
Reveals a guilt
Inviting a conflict
Encouraging a mutiny
Residing in agony
Outside
Of your in.

Panama City, Panama – April 2012

High

the grease
in the sky
denies us
the hidden mysterious
why

why indeed
does the sky
try
to keep hidden
a mystery.

I sense
The pain
The utter desperation
In being
Insane.

I remember the future
I remember to see
The beauty behind
What makes me be
Free.

shadow of one

As aware as I see
I invariably stand free
As a witness
To the many shades
Of me.

Moments that blink
Invariably think
About their worth
And their sanity
On the brink.

stacks

Revered by the stones
That harbor the bones
In timeless details
Of where beauty hails
Within the mastery
And mystery
Of thrones.
