Least known or unknown address

Valedictory eyes
Purple gaze on to no one
A precursor to the past people
Of my present premonition

Unusually I am keeping going

I am on my way
To somewhere of little interest
I keep going
For something usual may occur

Fundamental

To superficially soak
In the stupendous stupor
Of not even half understanding
The weighty tome before me

With style, form, scholarly
Vocabulary; a resonant
Ambiguity holds me transfixed
By its inadmissible beauty

Kras

Two sparrows and two children
Two adults buy two ice creams
Two whitewashed walls to sit upon
Two buttons carefully undone
Two aprons of the hovercrafts skirt
Two swellings in your cotton shirt
Two adults lift two happy children
Two shire horses draw the carriage
Two islands washed in innocent sun
One marriage skillfully wrecked 
One love, selfless & helplessly half won

Barrier


Have the sense to use those other mens words
Such that your own sensitivity is protected
Hold back your empty tears with their thoughts
Such that your scars will wash off easy as mascara

Let those wandering poets shake the blossom
While you are magnified by the blue skies
That they may talk of doubt and grief and longing
To depths that your imagination needs not imagine
