O my desk,
a daily friend you are
leaning back I can trust you
stuck by my side all these years.

legs firmly pressed into carpet,
sleek gray blade, leveled,
every poem is written here
made with your support

The passing of the years,
will not escape you.
I will never forget you
even if I have to replace you.
Poetry is a fine madness
And I taught it for twenty years

Helps me make my stand
Helps me confront my fears

Mad as the mist and snow
I rode that Taipei train

Dragons in the Night
Flyin' round my brain

Drinkin' turpentine, breathin' fire
Toledo, Ohio. Toledo, Spain.

                                             ­                         heart,
                                 ­                                     soul,
.                                                                                being.

He was desperate for guidance
So she took him to a place
She wore her black cursed lace
Evil was forever glued to him like paste
He swam in the sea of toxic-waste
He then could not recognize his own face
This was not some crazy-love phase
He was running in a very dark maze
Broke the seal of all his faith
Like the ashes in a haunted vase
He was lost in the darkest space
This kind of love is a hopeless case
A melancholy you don't want to replace
A sin the devil wants you to chase
The apple Adam and Eve had to taste
A dark kind of love. (Seduction)
