Visions swirling inside my head
Of dreams long ago
Amorphous shadows clouding sight
Of screams ever indistinct
Beleaguered moments of solitude
Amplified by souls asunder
A deluge of empty promises
Heart abandoned to vicious plunder

The sky is cool
The are pink
I breathe in fresh air
And let it sink

The day is done
And sun is low
I close my eyes and let it go
The stress and strain
The love and pain

My is still
And mind at ease
A soothing balm
On my aching will

Hypnogogic pronking
volatile and magical
in the foothills
of dreams
A mere discarnate
pauper
Ratified and indebted
to the hurt
of schemes
Words flow in currents
of thought
under a crown
that never gleams

Qilin in my dreams
Celestial and sublime
Grants moon-drawn wishes

With a mane of fire,
Its roar echoes far and wide,
Fierce and strong.

From it, nothing can hide,
A dragon and horse,
Blended as one,
A symbol of peace and might.

a legend, forever begun,
In Chinese art, a beauty to behold.

Her svelte
delicate body
sleighs on lotus

The kingdom lits
d sky today

fervently
gets decked up

It bows down
it's bejeweled
neck

The congregation
of stars takes
seat in her glory

While the moon
skips a breath
smelling the
pink dew drops
on her face

Asymmetric combat
poison in the waters
thinning of the air
Balloons adrift
in atmospheres
Wooden dummies
lighting flares
Qilin fights
for our side too
Come on,
take our dare

soft emerald
moss lies
on snow-capped
mountaintops
a blanket of lush

settling on ski slopes
the sun sets
slowly
casting a rosy hue
onto a frozen landscape
in shades of blue
the air is still
filled with the promise
of
as two hearts
come together from above

lullabies can't sing
themselves
to sleep,
they're
in need
of helping
hands, drifting
into dreams ceremoniously
will depend on when your angel lands

Just look at the way that they love
Up there in the tree
Stirring and shifting in
Singing and peaceful as can be
They’re building a home
All for their family
Oh how I wish
As I watch them with glee
That we could build something too
For just you and me

To hell with
propriety,
arbitrary rules
of society.
ENOUGH with
the mimicry.

Unfetter your
soul,
unfurl your
wings,
freefall into
grace

Life
An ancient practice
of everyday actions
Borrowed manners
Days and nights,
months, years
roll in an inner circle
Hamsters
endlessly running
on their wheels
Invisible are the bars
that behind them
we try to define ourselves
But we can bend them
with Poetry

I will show no fear
My spirit will howl
Like the
I’ll growl
In the face of depression
This life will be a lesson
To fight on
But show no aggression
For love
Happiness
Kindness
Will win
Then my life
Will bare teeth
With a grin

Under silver moon i walk
Untrodden paths i love

In my hungry eyes i lock
shadows from the inky sky above

i am called
the solitary arctic beast

Silently i lurk in cold
My frozen heart is pieced

I wait not to kill
but with love my soul to fill

Once an asp spoke to a
Told a tale of rotting dreams
The two chortled at the misery
The lost ways of human destiny

To inherit the earth the asp said
Evict humankind could bring such joy
Death spread through disease
Sealing the end the human seize

spinning in
this sacrosanct realm
she weaves
she dreams
she hibernates
hiding
from the ache
of waking
too soon
she
sends the slumbering
sweet symphonies
vibrating
with
colors
&
tenderly
heaping
with
empathy
she sighs
&
whispers
may your muses
rise
in
love
&
poetry
