THOUGHT ON THOUGHT

Do you object to
sexual encounters in the clan
to save a semi-god
from extinction?

A political consideration?
For you becoming an otherself
for future generation?

I will not return to the cave
for a bell jar of bones in
the dominion of nature.

The creamy layer of bats
in dark, pursing the lips
to give a truth curdling lie.

I think, I should not think
of sun, water and clouds
and of mundane predictions.

There is power in every word you bring to life and there is a force that accompanies each stanza. I remain in a fixed state of awareness after reading your compositions; arrow true they hit the bull's eye! One must give an honest account of self and their surroundings when entering your world of keen observation, both sweet and bitter; the living in mourn as well. Your astute delivery plays tag with the clouds on a day sure to sent showers that arrive when least expected. I applaud you with each reading of your literary works as it can be mind boggling as one searches for the right combination of expressions to convey the heartfelt emotions leading from pen to pad! I sir, do object to the ungodly behavior of mandkind and it's false ego. Thank you for your many writes of great quality and humanitarian gesture. You are poetry and a gentleman above the best of the best!
