Sailing upon new waves,
Post Modernity's Wake,
The 'wise men' arrive upon the Isle,
Isle of the Children Faithful and Wild,
Ascend the Peaks of Antiquity,
With a thousand coats of obscurity,
With New Clothes and New Shades,
Conceal the eternal Splendid rays.

-I live, breathe, it seems
Awake in a dream
Memories ail and fade
I take naught away
But my soul never strays
My soul and love's aches
Only these two of the same
Could cross over the gate-
The old men in the desert
Seek chalices not water
The old men in the desert
Among grains of gold falter
The old men in the desert...

Do you pity or envy a world
That has cut off its calluses
Do you love or fear a world
So gentle against the wind
That a prick would bleed
That a pinch would twinge
I pity and fear it,
Thus:
Here I am, hiding
In a boat of poetry
In the strait of obscurity
Between two oceans of fear
Between
The old world of joyous suffering
And
The new world of unbearable peace
Trying...

White Maple
As the leaves fall
I lift myself up
To replace its abundant emptiness.
For the world has turned pale
Since the color returned to you

A storm of old stories of
Nothing new
That's never been told
Still
I'd rather be the white maple
Of short lived pleasant surprises
Of a kind of s...
