WayfarerPoet

To my audience, and the rarest of readers, I write free verse poetry with an emphasis on metrical movement, insight, and revelational thought—let us relate.

SENTIENCE

Sensations come,
we know and go

above the five
all have alive:

not looking, feeling,
tepid and tingling,

"Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility."

PEOPLE

are we
together inextricably
one:

rulers of
kingdoms of
dynasties and regimes;

genus maximus
of differences
from the same origin;

ALTERNATIVE MEANS

It’s an alternative
we have,
technology:

we tweet to think,
to feel
we watch movies;

to talk we text,
to touch
we use emojis;

ON EARTH

days can be dark,
splayed, spiraling—

I love looking
for it recently,

duties are what’s right,
missing

MORTAL MORTIS

You wait for me,
conniving, craving,
halting now to cheat eternity.

Inside my life-box
there are likes,
loves, and things lost

REMEMBRANCE OF THINGS

Beauty before
being all the more bold,

as shadows follow
the brightest light,

ABSENCE OF LOVE

With a little light
and ten minutes,
touching comes and goes,

others with their intent
and you with yours—
it gets mixed

Be Careful What You Wish For

When you witness a beautiful sunset
Recall the cherished moments
When darkness falls
Be still

PRINCESS OF THE PLEIADES

Beauty, full,
so far away:

lucent hot blue
shining

through the night,
you want to

take one
for the day

To get away
for just one minute:

warming
when the day beams
through the wind
without a to and from

all with certainty:

the darkness succinct,
the sky-night clear

in crimson vestment
and purpose pure;
