point in time

cruising
at a neanderthal pace
a sledge, a chariot, a mean machine
the reindeer, the divine
navigators
are we
fogless roads or misty trots
hooves that click
or a mouse that walks
essential beings
i am everywhere
immeasureable
of pace or space
God-speed.
One sees it all
-the highway
and the express-way.

rough cut

cut to
the undercurrent
blunt, steps
or just a trim.

worn halo
shiny surfaces
sometimes mirages
sting rays in the deep.

trends, waves
two mirrors
watchful of
split ends.

-hawkers of lotions
sprayers of mace-

meanwhile
medusas that were
catch strains
of parseltongue
a dialect
apparently far-flung

gallery view

navigating
through minstrels
scores
a carol at the alley

a gap at the synapse
sheer
epistles spun
filmy webs
barks, trees
snap up
some other valley

encore in the air
season's greetings
and, of course
on course at the hustings

oft' beaten path

Eccletic
for a passion
or a whim
or for real
Driven, flitting, or
driven
Or when
as is where is
is esoteric
Obscurity
tagged with a footnote
of length.
Reams determine realms.

before the diet (adjourns, bowing)

recipes
for starvation
or to travel light
herbs and spices
delicate
hear-say
shake, bake and a tester
done but rare

crucible
for elixir
or for worse
bits and pieces
optimistic
petri-dish
read, weed, and indeed,
the penguin's almost there

"Calendar"

trance-like
of borders, of migration
Mystic muse
descends
Spells bind souls
All's well
saarey jahan
till infinity
Tunes 'n spirits
-Familiars
from an aeon to the next
The sufi gait
the archway
to the milkyway....
