Dampskibet Gudenaa
Det var, som en Fultons Baad vi saae,
Da Dampprammen kom op ad Guden-Aa,
Mod Strøm og mod Vind en Solskins-Dag,
Stolt vaiende med sit danske Flag;
Den aanded' et Liv i Landskabets Ro,
Hernede hvor Ørnen i Skovene boe;
Fra Kattegattet ad Guden-Aa,
Kan Dansken nu Himmelbjerget naae.

Free Flight
Free flight despite dark devils of this world
needs no fixed wings, but inner flag unfurled
as emblem which no blame need stitch to show
in, out, high, low, both back and forward flow
depend on balance, yin and yang uncurled
together twining, gilding inner glow.

Flags of Every Nation
Glowing the heat of the sun is against us,
To Providence is the request of a time in life
When birds and all animals are singing the anthems
Of holiness and every flag is in the commonwealth
As every nation is a country technically
As every soceity is situated not in this country.

A Perfect Golf Course Lawn
A perfect golf course lawn,
A house painted by numbers,
A dog plays out back, and all
the children say, whats for
lunch, or dinner,
A man pulls in,
a women waves a white flag,
and all the children say,
this is my mom, and this is
my dad.
A perfect golf course lawn.

Die-hard conservatives thought that if I couldn't get everything I asked for, I should jump off the cliff with the flag flying-go down in flames. No, if I can get 70 or 80 percent of what it is I'm trying to get ... I'll take that and then continue to try to get the rest in the future.

Bangladesh
I wish, someday Bangladesh will be strong nation in South Asia,
I wish someday their will be no hindi channels in Bangladesh,
I wish someday Bangladesh will be a world champion of Cricket,
I wish someday I can walk in moon with our flag,
I wish everyone will have safe & better day tomorrow!

Our journey had advanced;
Our journey had advanced;
Our feet were almost come
To that odd fork in Being's road,
Eternity by term.
Our pace took sudden awe,
Our feet reluctant led.
Before were cities, but between,
The forest of the dead.
Retreat was out of hope,--
Behind, a sealed route,
Eternity's white flag before,
And God at every gate.

Everlasting
A name breaks on the tip
of a pen.
Like a wildflower after a
violet end.
The yellow stripes will
enter the past,
retracing the path
of failures.
I pick up a broken thread
to weave a shade of blue flag
to open under the weight
of a guilt.
A cluster of doorknobs.
I retrieve my future
to lock the death
in erotica.

Cry Missiles..........
FROM loneliness to rage,
you slip into a bluster
of moods, each one has a
flag of its own.
FROM loneliness to rage,
you howl for any one
with two arms, to hold you,
untill this sadness passes
away.
FROM loneliness to rage,
you cry missiles that
explode in your head,
and land at your feet.
AMEN.............

From Loneliness To Rage 01
FROM loneliness to rage,
you slip into a bluster
of moods, each one has a
flag of its own.
FROM loneliness to rage,
you howl for any one
with two arms, to hold you,
untill this sadness passes
away.
FROM loneliness to rage,
you cry missiles that
explode in your head,
and land at your feet.
AMEN.............
