Scraps of reflections written,
not to be forgotten, are
scattered and battered
about the currents of my
consciousness’s need
to express tentative truth
to live harmoniously.
Collection of Scraps
Collection of scraps swept up
into plies of confusion
wanted attention
from the creator’s hand that
expands the landscape of thoughts
into flights of delights of sound and sights
to ease the heart or please the soul
to shock the mind or rock the boat
to scare security
or repair the injured.
These discarded moments
strewn about like insignificant ants are
fearful of being smashed by the fleeting flash of unseen life
in acres and acres of tall green grass.
A Scholar’s Loss
Wordless books
Are those that speak
of eyeless looks
empty and weak.
Inkless pens
Are those that write
of henless cocks
who have no fight.
And so I crow
In vain to speak
of eyes that show
my pen that leaks.
