The Temptation of St Anthony
From Emperor to Vampire, journeying through to final place of amoral monk.
Dwelling in ruined fort, a habitual sin of retired idleness. Momentary contemplations
to follow the birds south, he spends his days tending a garden of lilies in the desert.
Holding his demon captive for too long without his hands, she now writhes naked
and tied to column of penitent temple. Tresses burnt...

Blind LOVE
You must know
Life is not a show
You go up, you go down
But stop acting like a clown
You may pretend you don't care
Anyway you know what we share
Every time we both meet
We're falling in love a little bit
I do love you but never said
I'll still be like a shade
Will be watching all your moves
One day you'll see it proves
That the one from the past
Was always first to give h...

Too Proud to be happy!
Thanks, I realized who are you
But before my heart grew
Full of love and deep desire
They could feel between us a fire
I was with you dear always
And really, I had no holidays
Hospital could be my second home
Didn't stop me even a storm
After all I did for you
I get words but only few
That was fair enough
To see the real stuff
The real truth knocked me off my f...

So Easily Pleased
From a glass of Cote du Rhone,
Stemmed from your place of birth,
Or a framboise tart –
Patisserie delights.
The taste of salads
And hummus garlic that stains your breath
That I so dread to kiss -
I know you have to put up with my nicotine lips,
But it’s me that does all the moaning.
So easily pleased by life’s gentle moments,
When for me it isn’t enough to savour,

When without you
When without you;
Scrolling; I kiss your display pictures
Seems it has become a ritual
Browsing through the reveries
Once you gave me that key-holder
I caress it as if an amulet
Just sipped-in something bitter
Navigating you inside somewhere
Can sense those flashes
Of amorousness
Arms holding me from behind
Every part of me getting unwind
Fingers flickering...

A Quiet Night At The Telescope
It's a quiet night
a quiet night at the telescope
an eye on things
all that's unfolded, all that is done
The moment shivers
as December's knifing breath sinks deep
and weather's long sigh
the only sound in all this silence
The whole sky
looks straight into my eye
The whole of space
has it's magnifying glass to my eye
searching for something
I...

Unrequited
The head of a rose
dry and broken
like a soft word spoken
which was not heard.
The head of a rose
petals close together
intense love held forever
which was not seen.
The head of a rose
leaves are tattered
a life lies scattered
which was not known.

Love
I want to be alone,
but only within my family.
I want to to teach you
but only with him too.
I want to help myself
but only if you help me.
I want to be confident
but only if you are there.
I want to be creative
but only if you allow me.
I want to be a parent
but only if I’m parented.
I want to be an adult
but only if I can be a child.
I want to feel emotions
but only if you hold me...
