"I love this. It's like a microcosm of tranquility. Why no one else commented? I was wondering the same thing!"

Another day another "poem." This was was written for a group. The topic was "Time." --Watch-- Watch my watch, Time ticking by with each tick, Minute after minute, hour after hour, Well-spent or wasted; it doesn't matter. Time flows on anyway; Siddhartha's endless river. Watch my nephew grow, The newborn morphs into a plucky toddler, Smiles and dimples on a cherubic face, Hands stained red from finger painting, Wait another minute, and he's a child no longer. Watch the seasons change; sunrises,…See More

College Life in BU

Boston UniversityTwelve story dorm with grey skies above,Raindrops running down my window,Echoes of car horns blaring down Commonwealth Ave,Should my breakfast be Easy Mac or Raman?Waiting for the T in a crowd of swirling umbrellas,The tram pulls up to a sudden jolt of thunder,Climb inside for the five block ride; Eyelids heavy,Nearly trampled as I exit for Metcalf Science Center.A dozen sneakers squeak on rain-slick floor tiles,Cell phone says I’m ten minutes late;Rush to the lab, schoolbag…See More

Was it Real or a Dream?

Do you remember when we smoked that horrible Black and Mild and split a caipirinha down in Miami? There was a drunken couple sitting next to us, singing at the top of their lungs, and our bartender was laughing at them - the bartender with the skin condition that gave her blotchy, tan-and-white hands. Dominican pop music was blaring in the background, but you could still hear waves rolling onto the beach, over the echoes of tourists walking up and down Ocean Drive. The night air was so humid it…See More

--Watch--



Watch my watch,

Time ticking by with each tick,

Minute after minute, hour after hour,

Well-spent or wasted; it doesn't matter.

Time flows on anyway; Siddhartha's endless river.



Watch my nephew grow,

The newborn morphs into a plucky toddler,

Smiles and dimples on a cherubic face,

Hands stained red from finger painting,

Wait…

Boston University



Twelve story dorm with grey skies above,

Raindrops running down my window,

Echoes of car horns blaring down Commonwealth Ave,

Should my breakfast be Easy Mac or Raman?



Waiting for the T in a crowd of swirling umbrellas,

The tram pulls up to a sudden jolt of thunder,

Climb inside for the five block ride; Eyelids heavy,

Nearly trampled as I exit for Metcalf Science Center.



A dozen sneakers squeak on rain-slick floor… Continue

I picked a fight.
Around we go in circles.
Tears; so many tears.
How can love not be love?
Why does the status quo feel so comforting?
With you I'm happy, yet unfulfilled, but without you, I fear I'd be nothing.
