Nov 21Member-onlyAcross the SeaPoem — Sometimes, I sit alone in the dark, With a silent tune and a tobacco pipe, I let my thoughts drift to a mystical realm, Where logic fades, and fantasy swells, The sort of place that’s the topic of old reggae tunes, A dreamland of sorts, like that old Bunny Wailer song…Poetry3 min readPoetry3 min read
Nov 19Member-onlyRed MoonPoetry — I saw a red moon, Above the clouds in Istanbul, I thought about taking a picture, or recording a video, But my mind decided to live in the moment's glow. Upon reflection, I probably should have taken that picture, But a time stamp from my notes from an incomplete poem, Captures the…Red Moons1 min readRed Moons1 min read
Nov 15Member-onlySonderPoetry — There are times when joy eludes my pen, the scribbles that follow are sorrowful and bleak, Although I pause at moments of reprieve, Soak in, and live within the relief that they bring, The words do not resonate within, They’re fleeting, like visions from a dream, Hurriedly passing by, when reality settles in, I…Poetry1 min readPoetry1 min read

Oct 8Member-onlyFalse ProphetsPoetry — Deception has a guise, That’s convoluted and dark, It tells many lies, To disguise its true path. Deception has no shame, It does not even bother with a mask, Twisting and turning in the open, it’s like it’s unaware of its past. Yet deception does prevail, in the shadows, false prophets…Poetry On Medium3 min readPoetry On Medium3 min read
