José, can you? Si. Bye!
The dawn's early. Light what?
So? Proudly we hailed. At?

O' er..the ram parts? We watched
Were so..gal, Aunt Lee streaming!... [read more] |

joy posted a new Poem titled INNOCENCE ON OUR SHOULDERS 3 days ago
I am constantly in awe of how a child’s mind works…
with no pretense…no deception…
there is an openness…a candor…an innocence in their perception.
The other day in our town…as we waited for the Mardi Gras parade to commence
I was... [read more] |

The Bolshevik's secret police and network of monitorings
were as inept and clumsy as the Tsar's had been: the
names---Isekela and Yalok---identified just two adolescent
boys, dislikers of shirts, haters of shoes, and probably
queer for each... [read more] |

Lean back on that rock
jutting sea-ward as waves splash
your distressed jeans and
your unshod OTC's (shoes
left on your car's back floorboard).

itself to my gaze; abandoned, your clothes
except for that pair of tan pantyhose

Albizu y Zapata,
murieron en la causa,
sus sombras incendiaron
la tierra que nos abraza.
De pie prefiero morir,
antes que doblegarme,
la tierra es de quien ama,
de quien sabe lucharme.

This must stay upfront in the public eye
Home safe and sound she must be
Every lead followed until our goal is met and a beloved mother is returned
So much time has already gone by
Every day more precious time is lost

Breaking hearts and you don't seem to care
Ruthless monster took a helpless old woman

Nothing more evil or cruel

No more of this terrible injustice
A deadline now for you
No way out
Cancel all... [read more] |

Fading into the horizon as credits roll on queue,
And a name stays center-frame and shines through the vignette
But what shines brighter is this moment here with you.

A morning ends when the light dips low.
A smile welcomes me and her steps are slow.
The lock clicks as we draw close.
Her room holds a soft, deep repose.
Her drawers fall. Dark skin glows bright.
I lay her down for an afternoon out of... [read more] |

Yeah, I can imagine you’ve seen it all,
A sunrise on a postcard,
The golden hour on a feed.
But I was right here,
Just before light gets jarred,
When this world holds its breath
and sounds recede.
And I wouldn't miss it...
