The Rise of the tenth

Flash Fiction — For a moment, silence. It was like the earth decided to take a break. A clear blue sky accentuated the quietude. While only a fraction of a second, to me, an eternity passed before normalcy returned. I looked around. No one else seemed to notice. Did I imagine the split-second…

A Never-Ending Vigil

Poetic Form: Dansa — She sits waiting forever Pining is sweet sorrow, and the eyes speak their own tale People hustle about unmindful of one so frail Strong bonds forged over years strain to sever She sits waiting forever Around every corner, she seeks hope like a holy grail Patience a virtue she has long mastered on every trail A fool on a hill, her eyes moist never She sits waiting forever Rain, sun, and hard shale affect not the optimism of her tail

Magic at The Gabba

Free Form Poetry — Eleven warriors at the Gabba An arena unbreached in three decades by any visiting force Only two remain from the meticulously planned team Nine others brought together by twists of fate The veteran leaves early in deference to the events to unfold From the willow of the young one, flows…

The Last Dance

Poetic Form: Curtal Sonnet — Light as a feather, she skips in joyful abandon Unmindful of the hungry eyes that devour her A shadow of darkness falls on the unbridled gaiety Wings of gilded gold spread like an airborne mansion Darkened trees fear to stir Bow in obeisance to the descending diety In that instant, she knows she is but a fool in the rain Too late to escape the talons of destiny, now a blur

Retribution

Flash Fiction — Urvasi eased off on the pedal. Trees and vehicles flying by began to crawl as she cruised down the main street. She spied a vacant spot and deftly maneuvered her car into it with a sigh of relief. The hospital loomed to her left, and the gloominess of the building…

Ed's Best Christmas

Poetic Form: Decima — Ed flicks a spec from his red coat Snow white beard trimmed to perfection Looking for a new direction Stores closed, yet he carries his tote Ambles down to his little boat In the old dock, a lonely child Hungry in eyes and hair so wild Toys, Ed springs from the trusty sack Such a joyful smile he gets back His heart happy by one beguiled Decima has many forms. This poem uses the Puerto Rican form with eight syllables per line and with a rhyme pattern ABBAACCDDC, for a total of ten lines.

Traffic

Double Acrostic Poem Chaos Flying by night one sees the grim faces in the naked light of grief Moribund vehicles zig-zagging with no thought of harm Green and blue in the distance beckon the travelers away for long Hasty and fiery, they return in a rush Crowding the space that one thought was infinite in its arc Lights appear to guide the crafts in arrangements so floral Even in landing on the home planet, the wait is indefinite Smooth though the landing, the world is still in chaos

Unhinged Melodies

Poetry Form: Alternate Rhyme — A light breeze checks in, seeking orifices The singer flinches In the unrelenting winter Music flows by a medley of reprises In a frenzy, from the guitar, jumps a splinter King smiles as his drums play an able foil His bullet-proof coffee steams on the wooden stand Unique concoction with…

The Storm

Flash Fiction — The flight was full. Recaps of treasured moments split the quietude of the otherwise quiet interiors. It was evident that the bulk of the plane’s occupants comprised a single traveling group. I watched in fascination as boxes of goodies passed hands with surprising efficiency. The aisle seat provided me a…

Smitten

Poetry Form: Double Acrostic Calamitous The heart splits asunder with a single thought How have you turned the sky into the earth Where stars tread in your angelic shadow Meandering are my days navigating the strands of your charm Limitless in passion, unending like streets of floral Every fiber of my being throbs for that surreptitious glance For it is you who makes my life devoid of grief Such a potpourri of conundrums, you leave my soul calamitous
