AVAILABLE NOW! Moths and Machetes
Moths and Machetes begins where Butterflies and Bullets left off. A collection of free verse poetry, Haiku and musings about life, loss, love, and grief. Some fall on the ears like the touch of moth fluttering against the light. Others slice into you like a knife. The poet’s inspiration was taken from life’s experiences.
Sample:
Ruin (Renku)
The barn, sad and old
forgotten still standing strong
cob webs in sun beams
recycled boards raped
floor torn away, back bone gone
dust haze dance in light
the barn sad, noble
survives the last season proud
the roof falls, barn death
‘A fascinating mélange of sensual experiences. Your poem reads like a mosaic — never tiring us by lingering too long on a particular stimulation. Every line is fresh and invigorating.’ ~ Review: Fragrance of Life
‘Superbly crafted word images — descriptive, picturesque and imaginative. Superbly crafted word images — descriptive, picturesque and imaginative.‘ James Toil
Rain on the Face of Africa ©
The great Serengeti‟s broad
face lies in the African sun,
dry, weathered, cracked,
thirsty for the season‟s tears.
Storm clouds gather on her
brow like an old lady‟s curls.
Promises, promising.
An empty promise.
The rains are too late…..
