My stories

To Mirhandah

Your children are not your children They are sons and daughters Longing for life Longing for itself. They come through you But not from you, They are with you Yet belong not to you.

thunder and tenacity

rachel and ruth tamar and tempest thunder and tenacity six daughters six sisters but sweeter the day and sweeter the dream nearer the day and nearer the sea sweet oh as sweet

Flight of the Passiondove

The firebird and firedove The dove of passion And the dove of love Dance the dance of flames Court in a ring of crazy fire For the love of life For a scarlet ribbon For a crimson caress.

shadow of death

In the bushes of Nahoon On a moonless night Steel blades drink blood in darkness In the valley of the shadow of Death 29 December 2008 ALIVE IN CHRIST IS DEAD IN SIN

Darling around you

Do you see the longing in her eyes? Do you see the beauty of her spirit? Do you know the hunger in my heart? Do you know the hunger in my soul?

Posted on Mon, 03 Jun 2019

It doesn't make much sense to me Richard, all I can think is the after-midnight show. Heavy going. Anyway it's good.

This is very good Richard. Well written. There is gold rush here in SA at the moment, pieces of gold as big as bricks they say. People travel from far but of course it's pyrite it's fools gold it's worthless. Still, the hopefuls come.

happiness

Posted on Thu, 16 May 2019

Your typesetting ends up very small on my screen I can hardly read it. It's Ok. Good, but where does the "Sixty Year Search" come in? Are you telling of how terribly elusive happiness is? Or/and of the afterlife?

nietzse

One of my friends still in school also quoted Nietsze: "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger". His dad burst out laughing and pulled of the road and he kept on laughing for a half-an-hour.

Good work. Mumbling thin poems. All the same,...

dictators and evil

Posted on Tue, 26 Feb 2019

Very interesting. It's incredible how much pain and hardship and suffering an individual can cause, in your words "a monster created by the devil."
