December Full Moon Dancing Ovation
full moon
as I am becoming
last one this year yet my first
his fingertips galloping
more mirrors to the fullest moon
one thousand depths and one
multiple gaits
irrelevant time to come
leaking even more of swelling moons
just before the full stop
pulling back those chains of moons
to dare to reclaim Ra
any circle is The circle
Ra or full moon
I am within the naked mirror

softness of scent

semi effaced wedding ring
the crushing presence of
grace on fingertips

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.

Note of nonsense and senses
Walk me through the rhythm between piano notes that light fingertips and your gazes crossing deserts to twinkle upon a mirage past a floating leaf to be pinned on a page, rivers of lust sculpting palm and hills of lingering.
Jotting down expansive contradiction
Bright colors standing ovation for light jade river that rumbles its mystery. Fertile autumn of black clouds looming across new born day moon recklessly happy double underlined by an escapade trail. One observation of life stories. Seeing me in what is.

To leave
Few days and I am leaving. Writing is my passion. Never wanting to stop. Creating a new home blog is not worth the trouble. Shall I continue here ... Not knowing ... Quite rough waters the past month ending a Swiss journey that was Russian mountains ride... Returning soon back to Beirut. Happy about leaving. Will take full year of lingering free, a drifting scent.
Leaving ...
Packing experiences to age
In one eyelash flutter
In one windy flutter
So much clutter
How much time has elapsed
How much pain has elapsed
Appetite for blank
Excitement of first word
First word, first visit upon landing
The pine cemetery
Green on blue blur
Blur rejoining my wings
Authentic integrity in my grip
Foolishly nomad and the wind
Nomad or pinkish bedouin
Characteristics of a black bourgeoise
To arrive soon
Arriving back ...
To unpack reflections
Dust shifting
Dust shifting
Sunny skinny dip in
Bret Mars champagne glass
Foolish journeys along their glasses
Haiku or Gogyohka
Careless about the dress
Careless about any dress
Listening to my inner voice
Within me fractal world
Pledging for my sweet insanity
To sparkle and be
Foolishly divine
(CHEERS! Salutations to Zorba the Greek ...
Dance & Spread Heart Laughter)
Leaving ...
Packing experiences to age
In one eyelash flutter
In one windy flutter
So much clutter
How much time has elapsed
How much pain has elapsed
Appetite for blank
Excitement of first word
First word, first visit upon landing
The pine cemetery
Green on blue blur
Blur rejoining my wings
Authentic integrity in my grip
Foolishly nomad and the wind
Nomad or pinkish bedouin
Characteristics of a black bourgeoise
To arrive soon
Arriving back ...

22 Aug final post
Full appreciation to all who followed my journey whether on Goyohka, Twitter or wherever. This blog will cease to exist after I get my final grade on my DW project. It will be private, just as a memory along my journey. Do excuse my will to focus on something else, urgent in its nature. Final wishes of heart laughter & rainbows of excitement to all.
22 Aug PLUS
Forgot that my DW is based on my blog and my teachers will check my link. By the way, a message to my teachers: deleted my Twitter account (sorry).
22 Aug
Ended Twitter & Gogyohka journeys ... Deleted by mistake my Gogyohka data (forgot to remove a tick on a statement when deactivating)

mist all day
on board
old train
so many images overlapping
along frequent stops
even its aging rhythm
choking
the ant within me
witnesses
earthquake

Not Poetry
hiding its identity
her chronic disease
plays his attributes loudly
she laughs in pain
one step closer
dr. by necessity
poet by the missed
mom by instinct
child by foolishness
getting closer to bingo winner
so many flares up
so many remissions
so many wrong diagnosis
so many years of confusion
she knows best her body language
getting closer
for the flag to flutter
upon her mountain of pain
she laughs
as her numb fingers are the ones
her chronic disease
plays his attributes loudly
she laughs in pain
one step closer
dr. by necessity
poet by the missed
mom by instinct
child by foolishness
getting closer to bingo winner
so many flares up
so many remissions
so many wrong diagnosis
so many years of confusion
she knows best her body language
getting closer
for the flag to flutter
upon her mountain of pain
she laughs
as her numb fingers are the ones

Quite a Twitter day
from those Haiku tweets:
colorful umbrella semi loaded
leading the herd
Venice scenery
~
powerpoint presentation
capital B
on his shimmery head
~
picking the sun
in between fingertips
summer vacation photo shoot
~
head MRI
the pounding pain
has colors
~
rear mirror view
my life passes by
in between gazes
~
Como- just after
descending the train station stairs
giant finger in between his legs as he smiles

I am soaring and

windy
submerged in love ...
my wind
the way of your lust
crashing
on shore
moving earth
once more, many more
nibbling to soar
whooshes circling
ear lobe
as I collide with
another time zone
the way of your lust
my wind
... submerged in love
lashes
gust of longing
lashing me
your distant voice
to awaken
all what was
in your arms
I imprinted the sky
our oneness
in those moments
open gate to multi dimensions
how to re-learn walking
after astral travel
your distant voice
lashing me
gust of longing

Pollen
my bee
lingers on
whisper of love
flower petals in the breeze
a little maneuver
to spread colors
on my vision field
I breathe deep
lesser isolation
in bloom
poems

Internet detoxication period cut short
My high fever since 5 days obliges me to write ... breathing as I write is easier. One night, I hallucinated being lost and suffocating in Venice alleys. I have been all around the world in 5 days due to fever. But the most dramatic night was yesterday ... I even made an international call to my sister while gasping for air in between sobs due to aches , telling her "no funeral for me". Today, as if bruised and bones crumbled but much better: I did not claim death ... as usual ;). Went at dusk for a walk with total serenity as the wind messenger of autumn caressed my pale cheeks. It was a weird Luganese experience since I came here for my master degree. All about to end (Yet I am sure that weirdness is a characteristic sticking to my life). I will be relocating to Beirut mid September. Flying back and forth for my thesis & "basta", timeout till the new learning phase for I am eternally a student eager for knowledge. Love Beirut in autumn ... { Autumn, first rain/ the scent of my ancestors/ resurfacing} .
Thinking about what happened this year with the sweet and not sweet nonsense on web 2.0 with so many opinions drawing my shadow or shredding it, I came to realize what I knew always but needed to be highlighted: I converse much more fluently with white papers, statues, shade, reflections and nature. There is a missed link between me & humans. My narrow path is full of light and colors. I refuse the highways. I invite few remarkable (according to my personal dictionary) persons along my path. And that is my abundance.
P.S: If you ever visit Ticino:
+ in spring, Lugano, go for a long, slow walk in parco ciani, wait till dusk to watch fishermen along swans with their movements emphasizing dusk ... distant memories and self tenderness.
+ in summer, go with the old train from Lugano to nearby village called Caslano ... drop a visit to the gelateria facing the lake and ask for "Tao Nero" ice cream from the clearest blue eyes vendor. As you sit by the lake linger on each lick observing all nature seeping within breathes into what makes you, you. Then gather your stamina and go around the mountain hiking (40 min) to re-emerge from the other side ready for another gelato. Go and sit under the murmuring trees to sip espresso along their intimate chat. On the way back to the old train, drink from the tiny church spring.
+ in autumn, visit Bellinzona and its castles. Standing on the edge of the main castle wall fence, contemplate the richness of leaves colors in surrounding mountains with ripples of castles. Smile. (Catch me on your lips) ...

P.S:
Will be out of internet sight starting first of August for one month and a half ... or more if.
In case of if, happy life darling. Though the scent lingers ... or not, your choice.
