Hunger

He saw two rag-pickersFighting over who found it first –The raw and stale bread loaf.Their mindless strife stoppedAnd turned into a disappointmentWhen the stray street dogTaking advantage of their quarrelRan away with the bread loaf… He realized from that episodePerhaps the hunger of bellyIs much stronger in lifeThan the hunger of heart.  40,656 total views,  8 views […]

The Parrot Pitcher

In overcast mires, as ancient mosses creepIt’s a quiet mimic where the waters sleepThe Parrot Pitcher rears its painted head—A crimson, low-slung, living, verdant bed.​ Upon its globose cowl, a hooked beak standsTempting the wanderers, a honey trap expandsWhile clear, translucent windows trick the lightA maze of colour in the damp, dark night.
