West Philippine Sea
A vast, restless blue, a heart that beats with the monsoon's pulse, a frontier, where sky and water wrestle, and islands, like scattered jewels, catch the sun's fire. Not just a sea, but a story etched in currents, a tapestry of tides, woven with the whispers of fishermen, and the silent, watchful gaze, of ancient reefs. A battleground of breath, where waves clash against the shore, a symphony of...

In April of nineteen twelve, a ship set sail so grand, A tale of wealth and power, a journey well-planned. Warnings were ignored, the ship sped through the night, Men on duty sleeping, Californian unaware of Titanic's plight. Steel and iron rivets, a mix of strength and flaw, A lie repeated often enough will often escape the law A plan, some...

West Bay
The sun beat down on a languid sea as a million diamonds danced and sparkled on the surface of the water. The red-tinged cliff hung over the beach, threatening to envelop an unwary walker. Above, the sky was so bright and blue, whilst on the horizon a misty hue. The rolling hills are so verdant yet bleak, with small...

Premium Member War Within A Psychic Mind
The voice to skull, a ceaseless chant/ Echoes rise, but I shan't recant/ Technology presses, it tries to control/ Yet my psychic mind remains whole/ They yield body possession, twisting form/ Emotion manipulation, their raging storm/ But through astral wars, where shadows creep/ Unyielding, undefeated, my soul does leap/ Assassins strike, yet I defy/ Surviving wounds beneath the sky/ They call me the Antichrist/ A beast...

Premium Member WEST COAST JAZZ
You can smell jazz, if you got hip to the sound, like on “Camera Three” a TV program in the 50s/ a 1956 episode featuring The Gerry Mulligan Quartet in black -N- white/ many jazz clubs come and go dimming their lights in the sunset glow/ fast food joints now line...

You got your gun there on your hip. You got your tin star pinned there on your vest. You got your hat pulled way down low Yet your heart beats fast there in your chest. Because before you stands the man And your hand is slippery with sweat And the time for talk is gone And you know one chance is all...

Then Dad took me to the town of Tortilla Flat I walked into a store, bought a ten-gallon hat I started talking like John Wayne, also bought...

The Sun of the West
{“IF I were to flee from this world If I were to collapse into a deep slumber, and when I emerge from that demise, I would yearn for gravity to tug me by my arms and legs and grant me my wishes. I would blow out my birthday candles in disassociation to the happening encircling...

When east and west marry
If biscuit dipped in curry’s what he likes, What use needless flurry on what he likes? O be not so narrow-minded a man, At least east-west marry in what he likes. Let them say, ne’er the twain shall meet, If they do, why worry in what he likes. ___________________________ Ghazal (tongue-in-cheek) |01.11.2024|humour, east-west Poet’s note: Dipping a biscuit in tea seems...
