We had never been there . . .

Incendiary passion rummages,
Stacks of old dried views,
Sequestered long by raison d'être,
Inflammable debris, superfluous-
Spring-cleaning the mind periodically,
An exercise worth time . . .

I enter the land of words often,
Eager to pluck the ripest,
Driven by urge to fashion verse,
Attempting a vivid message.
Michelangelo chiselled his "Boy David",
From a piece of misshapen rock, . . .

For Houdini thoughts submerged in ink
Freed of all trappings again . . .

"Keep in touch," her remark at our parting,
Complimenting my eagerness,
A gesture well meaning probably,
Or cliché of social language
I'd compromised when life demanded,
As she had . . .

A lotus thrives placidly
On contempt of the rotting pond
Bloated with decaying leaves
Still water blackened quartz.
The foul environ augmented with
Popping bubbles of odious methane
Can’t . . .

These mystical granules in my hand,
Trickle through cleft fingers,
Moulded and formed, this very handful,
Is animated in living creatures.
The creators touch, is stirring start,
For specific ratios to . . .

My eyes, pearl mongers disburse,
Liquid globes from lachrymal sacs,
Sprung out with emotional stirring,
Augmenting expressive depth.
A gifted twosome with thinking their own-
Seem sophisticatedly inclined, . . .

Unfettered from time’s monotony,
Mind wanders a universe,
Where choreographed alphabet,
Synergistic isolates verse.
Not every word can be grasped,
And expressed in rich fullness,
But the few . . .

Gyrations of the fire made me smile
Insinuating alacrity
Methodically intent almost frenzied
Feeding voraciously.
The orgiastic feasting would too soon
Ebb in ferocity
Embers glow awhile bemoan

Statues fear not modesty outraged
Wind can’t their fig leaves shift
Impromptu rendezvous in twinklings insist
Seeking fulfilling tryst
Aiding attires off unscrupulous bodies . . .

You, habitually become a singular thought,
Occupy the entire mind,
In monotonous queries of this aching heart,
Cadence of music begins to rise.
Every heart presumably is,
A lyre of many strings, . . .

A majestic rose, wanting to pick,
Enamoured by the bloom,
Clumsy hand, eager stretched,
To possess the priceless boon,
Ignored the chafing barbs raking,
The excited quivering flesh.
Bold indeed, . . .

The arch of a glorious rainbow,
Illuminated bow of colours in the sky,
Seen through liquid prisms,
Water drops painted with light!
Stretched across the horizon,
Splash of contoured hues,
Secluded doorway . . .

First of all, I love fresh air.
Secondly, I live in an apartment with 13 windows which face north and west. I have a magnificent view of New Jersey and the George Washington Bridge.
