Hey, Paul Simon! You can, if you’d rather, call yourself Al! My Dad is Salvador not sAL! My Mother has much wherewithal, not Al! I’d rather call the better looking Garfunkel – Art!

Sometimes, I think, I don’t deserve a white rose for being orphaned out of everything I cherish. You know, the manifestation of pain from defeat is only the tribulation of the ordinary folk, the real heroes feel the triumph in their establishment in bravery in times of defeat. Every defeat is a clarion call toContinue reading “The grief of loss out of deceit: A poem”

I can see you in your dignified march like a stately carouche across the streets of a sublime, undemanding and self-effacing  soul, with your hair in an augmentative artificial chignon for an auspicious occasion or feast; and I think of the Mother Goddess you were!

I amContinue reading “You can’t bury my intrepidity; you grave diggers(!); I will never bury the hatchet!: A poem”

I thought I am quite a kitchen king I turn out the savour with an instinctive savvy Can anyone fathom that  sometimes it ends in disaster? A hobgoblin in me tries permutations and combinations Finally, it is a risk, but isn’t life about risks I have endeavoured to be valiant despite all the odds againstContinue reading “Even if this poem is doggerel; it has much to say!: A poem”
