Be like air today


Be like air today - against a ballet of fear - dancing with freedom


Just one step away -
his supporters fade like dust -
wind blows in the sand

Freedom is marching


Freedom is marching -
to the sound of guns and tanks -
without any fear

Clouds are swirly tossed


Clouds are swirly tossed -
breezes scour the dusty skies -
an emetic wind

A chill silent wind -
hanging in quiet still air -
this pale moonless night

Ramshackle shadows -
subtle movement -
of the wind

Great god of coffee


Great god of coffee -
fill my veins with your nectar -
your caffeine tingle

Smoky clouds whisper -
creamy coffee steams my mind -
cobwebs shrink away

Steamy coffee, charge -
through my empty, starving veins -
intoxicate me

My heart falls slowly


My heart falls slowly -
bounces from pavement below -
and up to the stars

My brain is yawning - 
but will never fall asleep -
'til my ship comes in

Another O'Hare Airport UFO spotted on August 4, 2008

While waiting in the lobby at American Airlines Gate K-7 at Chicago O'Hare International Airport, my wife noticed a disc-shaped object hovering at an altitude of several hundred feet outside the terminal's large glass windows to the WSW at 7:01 pm.

A stranger's glance hides


A stranger's glance hides  -
behind a glass opaque mask -
dark revelations

Dark and so forlorn -
your eyes like a stormy sea -
scream of the wild wind

Silhouette glitters


Silhouette glitters -
 a litter of broken dreams -
dark light unwinding

With your deepest breath -
rise in beams of liquid light -
and reach for heaven

Peeling your skin like


Peeling your skin like -
an orange unfolding your -
sweet juicy fingers

Low clouds hug the night -
the moon wears a misty cloak -
a single frog croaks

Burning inside your


Burning inside your -
worn tapestry of tattoos -
and smoky whispers 

Lost in dark dreaming-
within the icy scars of -
your fiery laughter
#haiku


Crimson mist rises


Crimson mist rises -
feel the rhythm of your blood -
in your dark fabric 

Painting wild shadows -
dancing over low whispers -
in fingers of fire  

By flickering lantern


By flickering lantern -
whisper my name in shadow -
with your tongues of flame 

Dreams are swept away -
written on scraps of paper -
never dreamed again #haiku

Howling from snow beach

Unknown location



Unknown location 
in an empty hotel room 
my heart has checked out 

Cigarette smoke curls
from a river of dreaming
in haunted silence 

Strangers walk past
on an overcast side walk
lost in Seattle




In timeless moments


In timeless moments -
I know you are there floating -
high above my heart 

En momentos eternos -
sé que están ahí flotando -
muy por encima de mi corazón

In times of danger -
I put my best foot forward -
and take a deep breath

The Birth of Venus


You’re my Venus -
in a sea of stars -
your moonlit skin shines -
hypnotizing 

Early pale moonlight -
of misty heaven dawning -
all bow before you


In stillness painted


In stillness painted - vivid colours of your dreams -
so far, far away

Lift me to the stars - to wander in abandon -
to revel with pain

A pale band fading - away from mortal glances -
to the pain of night

Gazing through rainbows


Gazing through rainbows - your name whispered on the breeze -
in soft painted words #haiku
