Santo Domingo
a dark skinned columbus
grins
...

Bandar Seri Begawan weds the old and new -
roads, heritage buildings, museums, mosques, parks,
a market by the river selling jungle produce
and of course the Jerudong Amusement Park
...

stars
i wonder there is war
out there too
...

i tied the knot with loneliness
and found out that she can be
quite a companion when left on the loose
i would recommend her to anybody
...

Guernica
so hard to hold grief
together through a brush
...

a wealthy china
the dogs too walk with a
brighter coat
...

the holy book says god created
diverse races so that people
can get to know each other
and of course ourselves too
...

arching over the
great barrier reef
- a rainbow
