Homeless

Walking the streets day and night

Begging for food

Searching for job

Looking for shelter

 

I found

Some leftovers

No opportunities

Close doors

 

I wondered

Who am I?

Where is my place?

To sleep tonight!

 

(Hour Sixteen- Maritza M. Mejia)

Emeralds And Diamonds…

She wore emeralds

and diamonds

Round her neck

So much a Manet

outline

So much like Klimt

imcoplete

I like his work

Her beauty,

strength and eyes

like fired up steel

High rank as high

as her high cheek

bones

Her thoughtful look

is deep as the sea

What are you thinking about

Oh, beautiful ne

With

Emeralds and diamonds

Snaked soulfully

Round your neck

They are things,

but not the real

you

You, who holds

them up

Your souls passion

elegant and regal

as the garment you

wear

Your souls passions

hidden

Behind ruby lips

Quieted by clear sapphire eyes

They speak…

See me now, Now see me

The beautiful one

in emerald

Framed in a gallery’s walls

As high as its

ceiling

How high you reign over

your castle of

beauty

This land is yours

yet

Who holds your

heart?

Look deeply in her

eyes and you will

see

The silence of her

sweet lips

Speak to me

 

Stagnant

Moldy dank and desolate insides dirty with secrets dark with lies

Stale like day old pumpernickel bread crumbled on to the concrete resembling neglected shit on the street

Unworthy of time let alone breath eyes sunken similar to glorious sun sets

Final Trip To Allahabad

Final Trip to Allahabad

That was our final trip together;

The Maha Kumbh Mela in Allahabad

Where you asked me to donate clothes to a Sanyasin,

I did, but the loin cloth that I wore:

You smiled, assuring me

And the Sanyasin vanished in the crowd.

Half of your soul vanished too…

People praised me,

To bring mother to pilgrimage is

Washing away your sins, they said.

You smiled, assuring me again…

Time has flown mother

I still miss your assuring smile

And your soul that vanished in the Kumbh.

Don’t Cry

8/6/17 4:31am
Don’t Cry

Do you remember the way things were when we first met?
Roller-coasters beneath fireworks and every day was a celebration.
Every day was an anniversary, an outpouring display,
Of all of our shiniest bits. The ones that I like to nibble on.
Making love inside tents while rain dripped down through the trees,
All my memories of you are reels on repeat of giggling and holding each other close.
Walking across hot coals in your dad’s back yard. Climbing through the woods.
You and I were always climbing, but then there came a shift; I didn’t feel the hand reach back for me.
I don’t know when it was that I grasped forward and felt my palms fly through the air,
But suddenly you weren’t there and I turned into a gnashing and resentful whirl wind,
Of drinking myself stupid and watching the clock expectantly.
I miss the way we used to be. I miss the empty apartment with one couch,
Our room just a few boxes on the floor in the corner. I miss the way things were,
Before this became our present. I miss the calmness of your presence like a
San Diego ocean lulling me to sleep.

Five Years Later

Dear American,

the roads that had brought us close

did fork yet again.

Broken strings and emptied ink

could not muster a good bye.

Emmit

I didn’t get to say goodbye.
Not officially anyway.
I was stuck in a whole other city,
While you and Daryl sat alone in the waiting room.
But my heart shattered when I heard the news.
I knew that your time here was winding down,
I couldn’t see or think of you without beimg reminded of that.
But there’s a huge difference between knowing somerhint is going to happen, and actually having it happen.
Your body was refusing to work, but I still had the selfish thought to keep you around for just a couple more days, just so I could see you again.
I couldn’t help it.
I didn’t want to let you go.
But I pushed away that selfish thought,
Because I knew that it was best for you.
You lived long enough for your body to start falling apart on you,
But I have to think that it was worth it.
All the times I saw that little pig tail of yours wiggle,
Or heard you fake-grumble when I cuddled you.
Each time you did the ear-dance after a bath,
Or chased birds.
With all of that, I have to believe you enjoyed your time here on earth,
And your time here with us.
I know that I enjoyed every last moment of your company and presence.
And I know that when you left,
You took a piece of my heart with you.
I don’t care about never getting it back.
I don’t want it.”
I can be happy with my broken heart
Because the missing piece is with you.
And I know you’ll keep it with you always.
I love you Emmit. I will see you again.

There Are Horses in Heaven

This is a secret you mustn’t repeat:
There are horses in heaven.
They have been there always.
Even while here, they are aware of there.
Have you noticed how the horse
sleeps upright and ready, and seems
to be elsewhere? There are horses
in heaven eating golden sheaves.
They come to earth on angel wings
on the darkest nights.They stay with us.
They sometimes grant us wishes. They
relieve us of labor and sorrows. The horse
was in heaven before Adam met Eve.
And when they left the garden,
a horse took them to another.
The horse lives in heaven
wherever she goes.
This is confidential
and true.
