scholar chinese cherry blossoms bountiful in breast subsist on verse dipped romance punctuate precisely as I need… clichés mean misfit motives dream in pastel fruit bowls sugar spills down history red sofa of our western thirst these screens and demons dainty bleed domestic skylines our author of deceit a dime bag descent to river all drown dismal joy in the absence of indecision where hope is a tired old boatman rowing away from luxury .........and lying landscapes ...there time walks easy ..amid reading hungry minds .while smoke brushes daisies with paints of ancient fears .........and even songbirds weep fire |
