![]() "Hail Metropolis!" (Human)A Poem by Butch Decatoria
ROADS
Where choice begins. Some are quick to find its end. Wise will journey on. CARPOOLING The heavy traffic An ocean's slow ebbing tide Our patience drowns in. METEOR SHOWER Friday night space-lights As we caress the hours Streaks across the sky. STAINED GLASS Broken pieces shape The Cathedral of one's soul. Stained light still shines true. TAI CHI Dawn's ceremony Wet grass tickling bare feet. Wave away the night. FRACKING Jonesy punctures black. Points in caves, great Mother weeps Wells of poison rain. NIJINSKY So divine his grace Words not made to embody Ballet when God speaks. MY WINTER GIFT Skin so Downey white, Like a cold glass of fresh milk. Unwrapping Christmas. FRENCH KISS Such buttery lips Sweet cream silks, wrapping our tongues. My patisserie. VATTO Gang signs, ink, and blood. Beaner in a low Beamer. Cool kissing his gun. ROSARIES Madre genuflects In brown countries of her hands Old beads, sweat, and faith. DRIVE THRU WEDDING Romance thru sunroofs Hallelujah honeymoons Marriage number two. HOT TIN ROOFS A light Summer breeze Cool cacophonous bodies Hot stars southern nights. NOSTRADAMUS Doomsday Soothsayer. His visions doth entertain Medieval profits. CHINA Man's golden lotus. A wealth of divine knowledge. Heavenly on Earth. FIREWORKS Our toast to Heaven. Chrysanthemums igniting The night's colbalt sky. ORIGAMI The creases of us Tales of dragons and white ships. Neatly folded sheets. OSMOSIS Blossoms in spring time. Bursts of Japanese kisses. How to love haiku. © 2016 Butch Decatoria |
