Elijah's Lament

hearth cake and water

pursued
by ahab
and jezebel prophet
elijah ended up in the
desert

thirsty
hungry tired and
so unlike job he asked
his lord to end it all under
the broom

tree with
a noosed rope but
gabe the angel smacked him with its
wing and

said you
are a man not
a mayfly elijah
you need to climb horeb so eat
and drink

grumbling
he complained what
am i a horse that drinks
water i prefer ale or wine
so gabe

smacked him
again and he
ate the hearth cakes drank the
water and slept under the shrub
until

gabe smacked
him a third time
with its trumpet this time
shouting wake up sluggard and go
to the

mountain
already for
the lord has things to do
other than waiting for you there
as a

burning
bush and so
the prophet went to the
mountain because the mountain won't come to the
prophet//

what what without
knowing we could eat them

Poem of Being

habagat

ah the
southwest wind brings
thunderclaps and raindrops
playing staccato notes keenly
upon

the roof
it's been awhile
since i have savored the
vapors of alimuom before
the rain//

just being

po

strange it
sounds at first to
the ears after all the
years away back home again this
stranger

in a
strange land where age
at long last bestows a
monosyllabled title on
the old

when prose
is riddled with
honorific after
honorific it takes some getting
used to//

alternate landing

linguae ignes

legions
upon legions
of tongues of fire flew out
from the spirit in search of the
chosen

on that
Pentecost day
most found their marks in the
city of david except for
a squad

that lost
its bearings and
entered a roomful of
cooks in caesarea perching
on the

crowns of
bewildered men
these fiery tongues flamed
out and so the shish kebab
was born//

Schroedinger's Cat

yes and no

asking
whether she loves
me or not she merely
smiles in her quantum way leaving me
hanging//

Asymmetry

asymmetry

love when
less than requited
bears bitterness in
its wake//

trickster time has the last laugh

in time

has it
been that long since
our minds touched

has it
been ages since
we spoke in whispers

has it
been such a long
while since we looked at each other
and smiled

like oil
time smoothens the
the jagged edges of
the memories that we shared in
the past

but now
that you are no
longer here i wait for
memories of life without you
to smoothen
in time//
