Madam Anonymous

When in midnight of life
What will you see?
Did you use your abilities
To be the person you wanted to be?
...

Woman,
Ceaseless tenderness, beauty and grace
Is your name
The chaotic world is held firm and steady
...

Curls of golden hair streaming down oval face
Venus daintily ascended the shining sea
On a delicate oyster shellacked with lace
...

Numero Un:

To have and to hold,
A Midas,
...

Sex is the source of life, pulsating with vigor
Sex is the culmination of life, sleeping in peace
Sex is the breath of life, the driving force
Sex is the desire of life, hunger ever increased
...

Perched atop the Universe’s cutting edge
Beckoning dizzying heights at tethering ledge
Nestled between vast ocean and rivers
A human eruption of energetic quiver
...

To generate and keep honest money
To smile everyday in life’s journey

To work hard to laugh and enjoy
...

Give me a mighty, world pivoting lever
Watch me do it with a possessed fever

Don’t shackle me with rules shallow
...

She lives
To pour herself, every last thought
To spend herself so
Because that is all she knows.
...

This poem captures a real life event from the 1997 movie ‘Paradise Road’. A group of English/Dutch women survived the atrocities in a Japanese camp in Sumatra, during World War II, by forming a vocal orchestra (not choir) . They presented over 30 classical compositions during 3 years of their captivity.

The purple haze settled over the mangroves,
The singing cricket came out in droves,
...

A trilogy
Of modern US of A

You may have all three
...

Must be difficult, to break all ties
To separate the truth from the lies
Of your comforting cradle of birth
Toward a far land, set forth.
...

Bombay, of Hindus, Muslims, Christians
Cosmopolitan capitalist machinery,
Ornament of The Queen’s necklace
Sometimes, my heart cries for thee.
...

Let me tell you a story,
A story of 28 great lives,
Of hope, of enterprise,
An inspiring story,
...

I confess
I am an incurable lover of men

Their physique of linear muscularity
...

Lying content
In a state of bliss
Silent as a tomb
After the body's kiss!
...

The night under the heavenly moon
We walked hand in hand
The night we shared raging passion
And believed it would never end,
...

Over the clouds sailing along the mountain top
Far from the world, in an austere abode aloft
Lived the hermit
...

As the evening dawns, I can’t wait to go home
To my own little square of earth, under my own sacred dome

I am eager for the day’s care to be erased
...

It wakes me with lilting opera melodies
Without a luxury to snooze
Blatantly flashes across the screen
Day’s corporate appointments to schmooze
...
