~ Flow

Rose petal
gently in a river of
memories
so many dews
to bask in
scented breeze
tumbling
embracing all
those me-s
playing
Mother nature bliss

Childhood village, convent window -
Fog moves
Healing poetry

Bitterness of coffee
Red cups
Usual business splashing

Still life within Iraqi frame
Scrubbing screams

(Suicide bomb kills 25 at crowded coffee shop - CNN.com)

How to explain
that Hitler was
not a man
but an expression
of what lies there

-----

Trail of ants
Crossing her cleavage
Antsy legs

`

Fireplace and more crackling
Sparks venture out
Tongue to tongue

Cherry tree swinging shade

Spring, on shoulders and in couples
Sky picking cherries
Plump flesh to plumper ones
Adolescence memory
As if wings

Yucky

the river by a convent
floating and getting away
child smiles to dinner

a Heaviness Check

about 9 tiny fingers
birthday cakes
with chin on button ... convent child

zooming out to woman
in empty halls of sweet memories

~

the blur of a gaze never to befriend
"happy birthday"
... stillness of cold pinned


blankly
heaviness ages

Winter Garden
Plunging into
The sound of hovering blankness
Heartbeats as if none
A hollow shadow expands

Daily Wisdom Stain

to Activate stillness
Cyclone thoughts
The secret of Espresso

Sermon

burned out priest
never contemplating
the spring beside his church

... Choice too

Worst nightmare
Her mother breast cancer
Replay

Double edged intensity of feeling
that Attracts
Make peace with hate

Step back
to
Step into

Allaying the past
to Gain
her Future

to Heal or Not

the bleeding child
within him, he who never found
a solid lock

Butterflies
Diffusion of glow
Brushing against silk sheets

Reader breeze
Swayed thighs in bloom
Flutter of chiffon under moonlight

Confessing details of character
Gaudy neon sign
The anonymous back fade into a cat-woman-bar

Defining

Exile -
New sheets
On yesterday's deathbed

Untouched dream on pillow
Holds on to
a Brittle hair, his last mark

Steppingstone

Midair diagonal
Fat ass of a bird
Contemplating

Face to face diagonal
Wet cover
Lingering on how still

Midnight writing of diagonals
Non sense blog and cool lines
Does time really tick along, reader?

How to String

Swollen these two
Long past his half hours

Echoes of wolf tugging
Still and full moons

the Toss

Wild moon
On pillow
Tossing cheeks

Pocket & Stranger Fingers

Cold and swollen blob
Drowning in obscurity
Searching frantically memories
To recognize absurdity

Love Nudge

Life stamina
Waking up to
Lips on lips, cheers

Arabic Taxi Ride

Hanging ears on babbling
To turn inwardly
Breeze on face
Sky caress
Inner music of wonderful life
High on fine tuning

Ink veil
Holistic nakedness
Lingering shadow of the moon that flew away

Clinging to breath
Flutters
Yes, right there

Bar Episode

ice friction
to forget
drowning

next failed attempt
per hours
whomever smile

barking, BARKING
to wake up blind to keyhole
heaviness on fingertips

metallic alphabet
to blur
cascade

feeding emptiness
with more emptiness
lost gaze

Village, spring trail
Flocks of murmur
the Sway motion
Weaving shade with light

on his (houlder

Half moon
Branching out into
the Fullest living

(Dedicated to Lugano, my host city/village of two years)

walking the distance to movie theatre
another film -
by the river applause on quasi deaf ears

Deep Breath

dreaming in ink, moonlight
to sculpt pages
wind the floater
imbibing all
eyelid flutter in slow motion

'/,

Shattered mirror
She screams
to Reassemble herself

"

where the marriage ring was
naked paleness
wearing her mood

-|-|-

Emergency room
Nothing more invasive than light

Minus Note

in and out of pocket
restless hand
sunset
hanging on a bird's gaze
too soon dark encroachment

||irony||

pine tree ahead of brick roof top
piercing clouds
framed blues on a foreign wall

tabboule & arak
not a culture nor a people
the stress of ambience

mezze dipping along green onion crunch
business launch
brands naming to infuse bad mouthing

such a labyrinth
how to comprehend citizenship
of home country never there

cornered by over the brim slogans
the darkest night
puts forward a star

branching from void
blues
yet another mere ambience

Hiking -
Scene after scene
Breadcrumbs

\

airplane pierces its shadow
blanker faces on the rerun
back pain afloat, the broken gaze

(:::)

Tea-leaf
Unleashing sighthounds
the Swirl of facial punctuation

Redsmith (Dedicated to Houda and her Iraq)

Baghdad, Souk al Safafeer
She yelled her enthusiasm "Listen to the music"
One thousand tear ago

How can I avoid
Resonance at arm's length
Edematous in absence

racing dark clouds
the fish stitches a shivery shadow
with bright beam

Lingerie on line -
Wind plays
Buzzing bee

Blowing into the void of his cupped hands ( )

Butterflies shadows filtering out
to Brush down the tiniest details
Warmth on a cold pavement

Self-surrender

Damp withered leaves -

Two swans step out of the neck grace

 Self-surrender gaze

---

night train and rain 

an ant tap dance between dots

then comes the blur of dawn

Elongation

radio, after midnight -
jazz songs elongating the moon shadow

Lebanon

Lebanon-
Light winks more often than you can say cheese


(p.s: in Lebanon, power shortage flourishes and almost everyone has 2 lines, one from government and one private. Automatic alternation between the two, rules.)

`

Crowded with quiet cold
Walls march to the center
Hanging breath

Gliding on flowers
Morning dew
He weaves her moan

+

antique mirror -
more precious by its blur

...

the morning after-

erasing colors

on bluer background

~

Jasmine breeze
branching memories
the sway of moonlight
fingertip mist

Rooster Strings

Day's stillness -
The village rooster fantasizes multiple dawns

Sensitivity of an Artist-Architect

view flows
according to
window's frame

enticingly inviting light
to shape the building's soul
floater world

Pattern

Old tile design -
Blooming sacred memories
How a foreign floor becomes the screen

The Shift

mountains eclipsing mountains
lingering tears
the sun shifts

the last post is a bit dramatic so I decided to put a humorous lens


after valentine party
all naked
wedding dresses await
autumn trees venture into winter

Live Memory Flow Selectively

Around the sound of winter falls
flutters of unusual inhalation~exhalation
blooming you deep within
to circle still is
long after what was

Inspired by Mongolian Escapade CNN

Desert moon
Hopping on camels
Eco-friendly yurt

Rapt in naked gazing
Midnight communal shower
Shooting stars

Slow Dance

candle light
I sway with your breath
burning distance

Reed to Read the Walk of Dusk till Dawn

afloat
all the yearning
connective breath
skinny dip
venturing beyond variables
the secret of sound to reveal
"I am"
wind rippling memories
clouds' stability in marching
light in each shade and shadow
conjuring remembrance
of that
which "I am"
warmth blues
diluting illusion
anew hunger and lust
rising to expand
water breeze
sculpting expression
never apart

Floss and Toss

cultural discrepancies of humor
audience plays a different note
stumbling pose of silence
questionable timing
mesmerized speaker from Mars

Shawl

Mid Autumn
the embrace of texture
memories

Conception of How

hand on tilted rose
fingers to comb dreams
perfection of pink moon

kisses to sail
heading for soul
lingering in cave

fire breeze
lighter and lighter
ablaze slopes on darting horizon

... rainbow to shelter the greenest bud

Stirring the row

The blind spectator following footsteps to unleash his reflection. End tail of a herd rejecting and stoning clarity, the one beyond reach. One thin hair in between highly charged emotions. Forgetting to turn inwardly to see. Mocking in that clarity himself.

Among The Child Firsts

First knowledge of poverty -
two years later
seeing her clothes on classmates

Lust Contemplation

Branching on full moon
Red roses
He signs her body

War Zone

Childhood desktop
All the happy faces
Undrawn, haunting

Autumn Reflux

Convent, dinner table
Acidity of nuns
Carving knife

Ikebana

in silence echoes of love -
turning upside down large leaf
wings for the tilted rose

Rihanna

Tattooed body -
to erase the ones on soul

Sealed, Unsealed

filtering out and in
spider net
casper

warmth of memories
to visions
divine tossing

floating air
crocheting
sun rays

me
the cave
pregnant with prophecies

remembrance of oneness
fully awake
sweet surrender

illusive time and place
be the intention
wings of heart

Hunched up

Spring to Autumn

grandfather clementine grove

she sprays the precious trigger

drifting to a parallel world

shawl of sweetness 

undulating

happy moments

withered on

wet sheets

jinns' bottle

caress and lullaby 

On the Edge

Fingertips brushing arm
Trail of stars
Warmth of sharing
Wearing the universe
Inside out

:))))))))))))
