Poem: LOVER ACROSS BORDERS

My home girl lover
With instant messengers
Calls, and texts
Flood my heart and head,
With sweet promises
Of love and romance
Urging me, bidding me
Come home,
Or invite her over
My mind,
Pragmatic as usual
decided the former
And home I am!
To witness first hand
The silent voices,
And vanished text
Lover she claim
Lair she is
For the avalanche of texts
Calls, and mails
Not her face, would surface
Of my lover
Across border

Poem: FLEETING BREATH (AKA DYING DIANE)

Darkness encroaches
Encircling me
My senses falter,
Weakened
By an uncanny numbness

My mind wanders
To where I often wander
Filling my void
With flickering colored lights
Of the disco hall;
My ears
With raves
Of the crashing waves

My eyes feasting
On the young
Muscular men, lustfully
While my head,
Rests firmly on
My boyfriend’s thigh,
On the sandy beach

Now the stern-faced preacher-man
Peeps in
Saying again,
Those words
About now!
I wonder where I go
As my less than threescore lifespan
Ticks to its end,
In this freaky car crash

My mind wanders, here, there
Meeting some loved ones,
And moments
Then,
Fades
Gently
Into a bright white light
