Saiom Shriver Poems

An African Indian
is different from an
Indian African
only in the exterior.
...

Light is the Robe of God.
God is the Indweller of all beings.
God is not affected by the evil
done by those God indwells
...

He, hypochondriacal Aquarian,
could be seen at the ashram
wearing a broadbrimmed hat.
From all its rimpoints
...

When honeysuckle's
new pink spears
burst into fragrant
creamhued spheres
...

Out of the blue, 'the ship on horizon'
Out of the gloom, the meadowlark trills
...

Cloud Shapeshifters
Cloud Rainsifters
Cloud Winddrifters
Cloud Shadegifters
...

Watching:

rain orbs dropping from
pine needles they wand
...

The sea holds on
to nothing...
sending broken ships
to her earthy floor
...

In all countries,
a compulsory draft
is slavery to the state
as well as unethical force
...
