I
In a solitude of the sea
Deep from human vanity,
...
Masks prose without links
When last I visited India almost a decade ago
...
Sitting alone on the river bank
In the fast fading amber light
My eyes glanced across the flowing river
To the other side, on my right
...
I want to go back to my origin where I belong
essentially to satiate my soul
one homecoming on a realm where
soil blends a fragrance most like the earth
...
'Solitude'-the word despicable
for some,
precludes socializing,
devoid of bond,
...
Religion & Atheism are like the two sides of the coin,
Atheism preaches reason & rationale;
Belief & faith are the essence of religion of mine,
Both are adversaries having treasure of reason & morale;
...
I can see the sun,
I Can see the moon,
I can see the stars,
I can see the Milky Ways,

</>stark reality is ripple to flow
though blue to spruces up to hue
dream differs from inevitability
distinctive impulse is no truth of god

Many poets of various races and cultures,
Around the world indulge in variable adventures.
Rich and poor, young and old alike do converge,
Vie for freedom of expression and support in surge.

Lost its life, highway Fifteen
Hitting my windshield.

Why are you afraid of deviations?
It’s a natural phenomenon,
When medium is changed light deviates,
And the seven beautiful colors,
...
As wide asunder from pole to pole
My Eastern and your Western
in jarring disjuncture I am breaking
laying to rest the yawning divide.
...
I wish I show these Phony clerics,
Spiritual dharm gurus, pastors
Maulanas and Mullanis their place
Give them a tight ear ringing slap
...
When darkness struggles to remain dark
And the sun struggles for a little more sleep but is awake
On hearing melody of sweet souls and dews wish to live daylong
Then born a day sublime and young
...
am floating or falling. I am light
as a feather, or even my thumbprint
fills the sky. The water near shore
...
The oracle spilt its parables.
Flung from lips of lucidity,
fragments fell into the aether
and merged with fleeting images

Among the events occurring
in the universe today, one featured
a convergence of the life patterns
belonging to a salamander and me.

Narrow notions of Religious Sovereignty
Not withstanding the universal interests
Freaks minding the distress of generations
Convene the commonwealth of religions

Darling, do you remember that year's autumn leaves?
Perhaps it was your aura, but they were the prettiest and keenest I've ever seen
Strolling through the park, hand in hand, the foliage crunched lightly under our feet
Such a simple, yet transcendent, treat
...
I was a next door neighbour
Of Buddha and we frequently
Talked to each other
But whenever I asked him

The Sonnet of the Lone Guardian Angel
(A lone voice whispers)
...
I am the walking city
The breathing collective
The art of day and night
The ideals riding to work
...
Heart rejoices rippling over brims of joy abounding
embarking upon buoyancy of blue to float skyline
mellow soft yet serenades over mist fed green
quest seems to ponder deep into velvet woods of wild'
...
Call me wild moon, forest etching night's clearing....
glow ghosting silence-wide eyes,
blurring frost fur paths
feralled ancient....

The Evolution of Love
by Michael R. Burch
Love among the infinitesimal
...
Where does Bliss lie?
In tranquillity,
Away from multitudes,
...
in our galaxy of humanity
as we float like planets trying to keep
ourselves within
our respective orbits
...
Romance draws from response to stimulate,
and span two dreams’ convergence, second state,
meets live with love to spurn Time’s rendezvous,
ignoring jigsaw mind-set’s zigzag gait.

FINAL CONVERGENCE
In trying to reach the place where both
earth and sky meet,
...
Squirm in your seat and grind your teeth,
Rub your hands and set your jaw
Right when it takes you.

My poetry is a subtle ploy
In the cold machinery of now.
My love of rich, flowing textures
Subverts all rigid convergence.

There is no crying
Tears are dazed

Feeling alone

Here we all stand weighing with the scale of justice which gravely tips
our limits of tolerance as the Senate becomes a most sensitive jury.
Criticizing his defense, because there is none, DJ heckles like a hyena
waiting for the carnage to roll in laughing without remorse or mercy.

Late 1962, living in San Francisco's Fillmore District at the time, I regularly patronized a neighborhood newsstand and sundry store owned by an elderly Jewish gentleman, Mr. Baum, along with his middle-age daughter. Visiting one day, I observed a Black man, perhaps in his late thirties behind the counter along with the two of them. A new employee, I asked of Mr. Baum, 'no not really, ' he said. This is George Bell, a merchant seaman, by trade, who during periodic sabbaticals to the City always finds time to stop in and help out, allowing my daughter and me some free time away from the business.
One afternoon, shortly thereafter, I encountered Bell seated outside the store reading a book. Curious, I inquired, 'What are you reading? ' 'Mein Kampf, by Adolf Hitler, ' he responded. Continuing, he talked about varied aspects of Nazi Germany. I recall saying to him, 'That could never happen here.' He asked, 'What makes you think that it could never happen here? ' I went on and on with my thoughts, and finally he interrupted - 'I've sailed the world many times over, countries I've lost count, I've travelled extensively throughout the United States, and the bigoted mindsets I've found right here at home are far worse than any I found elsewhere, and that revelation suggest to me that you're fundamentally wrong. It happened in Germany energized with three simple components; an ego maniacal figure, an enraged bigoted populace, and a convergence of circumstance - evil ‘officially elected' to office.'

Now coagulated, moments
Of haemorrhaging passion
Refrigerated sightings of
Roses on convergence of our eyes

that i still care,
when you continue reading on

and then our minds met at a point

the usual fried chicken and rice
long noodles for long life

Of Aristotle, forty times-enough to memorize
By heart. He could not get to the intent;
In the book sellers’ bazaar, he laid hands

Man is an embroidered paradox;
Filled with poignancy and brutality!
But, to err is human,
And, to learn is better than dead bones.

My eyes dazzle in a sudden flash from the trendy view mirror
As I stand by my ever companion, aged two wheeler, served me long without error.
The weird sun peeps behind the Raddison fort so dimly
When drenched I in twilight before convergence with my beloved

Muse tunes to Rubaiyat. Ideas explore

thoughts thread together, beaded rosary
to bloom before stark tomb's dark curtains draw.

Mage, game are writ the same, page gape, as what will be

Two's company, three's crowd, or so most say
so here we write forever and a day
upon love and Romance try every angle
to dangle reasons for hearts' interplay.

I should like, good friends, to mention the disaster which befell
Mr. William Perry Peters, of the town of Muscatel,
Whose fate is full of meaning, if correctly understood
Admonition to the haughty, consolation to the good.

yonder breeze ripples on to touch green,
chord of tangent curves melody to crave,
for wounds of love to heal up in unison.

Like murmuring wilderness of sea waving wind.

Hunger driven, battling
late snow for sustenance,
deer converge at forest edge
curious about a lone spectator,

Defend to the bitter end
Rights to love
Whenever it feels right to bend
Might on wings of a white dove.

Brush off busybodies
Pounding other people
Mashing up mellow melodies
Social circle seeks to grow supple.

Life is a beacon to follow your purpose, be true to
yourself, help others and become what you must.
Delivering finality to an endless universe within
yourself.

This corner turned, the past behind,
gone is fear of self;
moment silenced, breath released,
exhaustion lain on shelf;

The exhibition hall was filled with shiny new cars.
Huge crowds thronged to see them.
Standing in a prestigious booth, the Engineer pointed
to a state of the art model and said:

words of love need convergence~
ride at a slow trot.

That even when it sick
And lies face upwards to the pining dusk

Things of repetition
Multiple things shall differentiate

Glittered sunflower by the sun dust’s dew
The sea murmurs as I reach my hands to you
We gaze like stars gazing at the dawn
And touch like fire that burns the moon

Tender touches

When the teary heavens' clasped in fist,
to conflagrate and be the fire,
I was with you in silhouette.

I was open for business, open for love, open to you
I wasn’t looking for much, just mutual satisfaction
From this messy transaction
I thought you wanted me for me and not just an outlet

Drifting away the day you left,
Broken to pieces I lay
Shortness of breath keeps coming on
Just dreading the mournful days.

Tender beautiful world, with breezes caressing and
whole, Alive with music, uplifting my soul.
I've tasted the sweetness of my every encounter
through, But something tells me, is this really true?
