My Info:
Name:
Haiku           Tanka          Zip         


dastardly obtuse
              mind-set obsessed
terrorist

                                      forgiven
                     seven X seven X seventy
                               as I must forgive

if  you don't let go:
fester the memory
wallow in the pain

or

sever from the past
let life live in new love songs
go - be born again

                    Tanka
      Appollonia
      and Lara's love song
      repeat Shakespeare's theme:
      star-crossed lovers forever
      Juliette & Romeo


in the shadow
passing the time of day:
stones in conversation

                            leaves play the lyre
                branches sway with the rhythm
       magical wind


from the mind          the seeing
from the heart          the feeling
in body and soul       the freedom of being


   50 years         seasoned life
   wisdom      has found its hearth


black tree etchings       a full moon in the sky

sound alert
antennae rotators
my cats' ears
Email:
   strings in variation:

mandolin music
water ripples on my skin
love-thrills on strings

                sensory-soaring  
                lilt of the violin
                soul ululations

and the harp
heaven's own love-song
molten gold; liquid strings

           

          musical strings
              vibrations on my skin
                 ....your eyes
O Valentine my sweets in reverse for you
Beware the Ides of March in 2002:
Is threat by any other name still a threat?

                i dream
                and death comes through
                next:
                i'll dream of you

Et tu Brute: forever new

And what if not then?
The point is...you'll never know when...

  The Ides come and go
   Ebb and flow rhythms of life
   Pass through your door
   But by foul play or fate
   Death still awaits

What brilliant revelation      god-Complex!
Is threat by any other name still a threat?
