Published poem, Pirouette, in Facebook Flipbook OOTP magazine

I am supremely honored to have my poem published with OOTP Magazine.

Pirouette

I watch as she pirouettes,
Her dress, a parachute, flies
In waves to her flutters.

Her sensual beauty attracts
An audience, not for her moves,
But for the supplication in her eyes.

They shine with an inner peace
That translates into an oeuvred pace
Shinier than the purest diamond face.

My gaze is glued to her oneiric flexible
Limbs that have divined  that the rain bubble
Ensconces her in a world where trouble

Is an abstract concept she’s never
Experienced, as her innocent cover
Protects her as she adds prayer to the dancer.

As her body flows, swings, undulates,
She hears titters on her esthetics.
She says: ‘Believe in a faith that provides
Truth and dares to challenge lies.’

They then turn away and bicker,
Having forgotten why she was a riveting picture.

Diploma Certificate for my poem, Strangers in the Night

Thank you, administrators,  for the accolade and your hard work.

Strangers In The Night

Strangers in the night,
Passing through a fright,
Gambling away all their might!

Strangers in the night,
Forever zipping away in a light
Moment,  not planning out for a long blight.

Passing strangers in the night,
Help us unwind, as we spill our plight,
Knowing there are no consequences to our tongue’s flight.

Passing strangers travel together at night,
Sharing secrets, hoarding their feelings of fright,
As Atlas did for the Greeks to keep them in the fight.

Passing strangers in the night,
Shake, tremble, and vibrate suffering in darkened light,
So that it envelopes them from within and out in bright light.

Passing strangers dancing in the night
Celebrate life’s gifts of unveiled secret height
That confines your freedom to be bright at night.
