a murder mystery
occured at three o’clock
nobody’s around at noon
only a mutt roaming the morgue
here laying horizontal
a koi once was coy
would it be the furry feline
who is licking its lilac coat
or the hunt alone heron
who is parading the pasture
the crime scene creates suspicion
blue-green algae blankets afloat
the floppy leaved floating lilies
consealing goldfish’s corpses
tainted water toxic pond
poisonous plant
inflicted the innocents
unusual mystery unravelled
You know how I know you are for me?
When I see your face I am happy
not for the things we do together
or the time we spend together
for I love the me being with you!
The morning sun mantles
the ivy-twined house
Her face meets his warmth
and yet is still too early
for the piecing shards
to lance her umber orbs
Her craving lips part to
drink in all his affection
The lone house shimmers
in the sun-poured adoration
she listens to her clients
nine to five everyday
five days a week
forty-eight weeks a year
she loves it
because
it is rewarding
spiritually and financially
she hears
her husband’s complaints
her parents demanding attention
her child’s disobedient grumble
to her
they are just static
from the telephone
so she hanged up
and turned away
to pat her beloved kitty
the mystical red scarf
fluttered from the east to the west
transcended history and art
religions and technology
medicines and plagues
she survived
the harsh sand storms
the blistering desert sun
she surpassed
the camel corpses
the night thieves
prevailed the long journey
she staked out in torn shreds
marked the history
in scarlet
the long legged musicians
are
playing flute and guitar repertoire
while
parading into the honeymoon suite
高脚小儿郎
吹箫入洞房
There are so many things to do in life
Some may be good and some may be bad
Like a roller coaster of ups and downs
There are also many risks
Like you saving a family member
and the risk is that
you might die from doing this
There are some risks you can take
and some you just can't
So Risk can be good like
saving a family member and living
Or bad like
you save them and you die
