Wonderland

Opening a box of puppies delightful
A scent of exotic, just enough to keep you guessing
Maybe queen in an earlier life or in the next
Delicate poise, grace, the curves of a master sculptor

A rare breed...

Goes but never leaves, a beauty tattooed onto your mind
Dew, morning air, sunrise in the middle of the day
Can you feel it in the air? That familiar feeling
Feel your heart  pumping hard in your ears

Feminism and other doctrinal -isms are so yesterday

Suppose the constitution of the Arabic alphabet had been too a discernible exercise. I reckon it's right to assume we would still be stuck at B. As the letter A in its element is quite distinct from the next letter in the alphabet; B.

This is the precise problem with most doctrinal forms of -ism Right from feminism to nationalism: Simply too much ado about nothing. Nothing but what at best is  useful just as far as matters of identification go

Ask me and I think Li Na deserves the attention not because she is Chinese or female but simply because she is good at what she does. But as Jay Z faults as we often do  in 'a star is born' when recognising the talents of Andre 3000 of the acclaimed hip hop group Outkast, Andre's genius is somewhat best brought into perspective when the comparative descriptive terms: “Andre 3000 the MALE version of Lauren Hill ” are employed.

Dreams Of You

Mystic Dreams. Image:paintinghere.com

I still share my nights with you, so close your scent sticks on the sheets
Distrurbed nights these are that follow your cold trail
Your sculptured back no longer in sight
The path you made covered by leaves of the coconut tree

Your scent faint, carried away by the ocean wind
The feel of your back still on my fingers
That distinct taste of you in my mouth
Vivid sightings of your beauty
Beauty as unforgattable as the white beach kissing the blue sea
