The Carrickatine

(from an ancient womb
death arose claiming
fruit of the birth)

Bow receiving blows
From a fearsome foe
As a fishing boat
Sailed for home.

An autumn storm
Bringing pain and
Loss to the kindred
Of fisher men.

Off the Irish coast
A turbulent sea
Spewed proof that
She had won.

Immune to the hopes

You Spread Your Wings

You spread your wings
And I lead the way with my staff.
Together,
We follow the bright star,
Of our love!

Together,
We soar as one-
Flowing with the turbulent flow,
Of our passion's winds!

Together,
We fly to the mountain peak-
Of our ecstasy!

From within,
Eagles are set free-
And they break on through the sky
And together,
We reach heaven!

Hope Did Not Die

It was a sad day
Lights dim
Moon without shine
Face dull
In deep gloom
As if dying
Darkness all around
Sorrow
In the turbulent mind
Thoughts
Came like waves
Why she has not come
Is everything fine?
When she will come
Was the question in mind?
But she did not come
The agony did not end
Life became worthless
But in some corner
Of the heart and mind

Like A River In The Sky

today at its wit's end
can be a chair
under an umbrella
beside a huge tree
in the house

today can be an orderly
thought
sitting down
troubles
letting things once
turbulent simmer
slowly
seeping under your
skin

i put my feet on the
center table
my hands on my navel
i gaze

At Carbis Bay

Out of the night of the sea,
Out of the turbulent night,
A sharp and hurrying wind
Scourges the waters white:
The terror by night.

Out of the doubtful dark,
Out of the night of the land,
What is it breathes and broods,
Hoveringly at hand?
The menace of land.

Out of the night of heaven,
Out of the delicate sky,
Pale and serene the stars
In their silence reply:
The peace of the sky.

Chemistry

In twilight of pain
I blink for a dot
to punctuate the intelligence.

My incoherence brings the unseen.
I stay at a vowel
to see the truth.

Immenseness versus depth,
in shoals of turbulent life.
Where do I hide my vessel?

A lure of the exotic death
does not bring the peach color
to reveal the light on earth.

An inverted blankness prints
the words of green bruises,
where the falls meet.

Bubbling Brook

Among a forest of virgin bush
it lies within a rocky crag
that stilled the raging mountain stream.
A turbulent bubbling brook,
wildly you race the wind
in your haste to reach the sea.

But a dropp of rain
lost upon the ocean,
for the ocean can no longer separate,
two governments.
With technology as their tool,
They play the ultimate game
Called ‘Fear Inspired, Insanity’.

Son of Cioran

Bring me endless rain, unstoppable storms
on the planet, to wash this terrible calm away

Turbulent waters will forever haunt humanity,
‘SUNNYSIDE DOWN’ on your t-shirt

Don’t bury me in Paris,
just feed me to the birds

Their wings will spread the Word,
as the shit piles on your head

All histories have been written,
time to say goodbye no more

The bell tolls for everyone

Not only for the sun

Life

Places, faces, friends or foe,
Life gathers as we sow,
Dreams scatter as harsh winds blow,
Lovers say their empty words then go,
Familiar voices we long to hear,
To comfort us in all our fears,
Life as complex as the incoming tides,
Sometimes soft and serene,
More times fast and turbulent,
Bringing us plenty of woe,
Our time will come, when we will know,
The calm, the stillness,
The silence of our souls.

It's All Love Coos… A Turtle Dove!

He who vents anger towards god
And says he doesn't exist…?
Couldn't be more of a believer
Than he who goes church on Sunday
To validate a new growing faith
By praying like a shipmate a wreck
In a turning turbulent ocean
Looking for shelter, mouthing…
In the water whist he's drowning
In the throes of his savior:
There's no difference betwixt
These two' it's all love.
It's all love, it's all love,
Coos… a turtle dove!
