clouds into sky
sky into space
such marvellous primordial joy
our universal birthright

Poem: Voice of Madness – complete
The taste of the sea, the smell of clean
the remembrance of all knowing
held in the palm
of the god’s hand
a drop of liquid glory
known as water
Poem: Voices of Madness – III – the gods
Yama spits out the bones of every corpse he’s ever ground
between his molars of destiny
his subliminal indifference
Dramatic Verse – speech by Naked Woman
Thus naturally reveal the living landscape and history of my
Defeats, failures, sorrow
All telling their tales in my unfolding form,
Which becomes increasingly a form of many folds
And bulges, and over them all an ever finer network of
Interlinking wrinkles, a living raku coated in cracks all over the surface …
Of this my living skin,
This outer billboard of my inner womanhood
Poem: Voices of Madness – II – other
humans abandoning human emotions
demons despairing of being fought against bravely
abandon the currency of mutual respect
and wallow in wanton lower realm scorn
spinning the wheel of samsara as idle indulgence
grown fat and happy with complacency’s sinecure
Poem: Voices of Madness – I – self
if only you could touch me
you might see me
if only you might see me
you might touch me
Haikus #91-94 Mind and Colour
hot color cold colour
bright color dim colour:
colours are the speech of the gods!
Haikus #95-103 Grasping
one breath
after another
existential grasping!
Haikus: #79-90 Contemplations
one lone bird warbling
one whole life story
in fragile moment of song
Poem: A song of simplicity
like dew on dawn grass
like millions of leaves waiting in quivering stillness for wind
like paint staying faithfully on a wall…
