broken eyelids scar
delicate threads of sadness
morning weaves sunlight

broken rifles scatter
grief so high a mounain creens
at broken bodies

broken skins shed hearts
robust from the power dread
greedy to suffer

break that TV screen!
monster of broken torture
switching you's and i's

so all may see me
the backs of technology
i dare to ride on

breaking news dreams souls
bound to garish depictions
broken planet earth

ah now the sweet treat
of a cherished broken thing
quite by accident

broken coffee pot
bought at the ten dollar store
charming little thing

'limbo dance' image from google dot com

resounding drum beats -
synchronicity of minds
rippling muscle

wild frenzy of flames -
drumming bends dancers writhing
lower and lower

beneath limbo bars
squatting dancers dare emerge -
drum and flesh union

encased in surprise
a bud warmed by the sun rays...
if i were sunflower

children stories hold
such sunflowers crayon scrawled...
boldness of noon sun

were i sunflower
head bowed at the setting sun
reverent day ends

furls of sunlight...
the marigold blossoms
a thank you note






broken strips of light
poem away the darkness
name-less stars twinkle

echoes of roosters...
his sense of speech heralds dawn
in connected signs

while goblets from dreams
to vital sheets of morning
drip dew oft her sky
