Carousel of clouds,
Tufts of white in a blue sky,
Merrily go round,
Up — down—up celebrating,
The carnival of morning.

My hair is a tuft of clouds
Who knows
Maybe I could find an angel
Hidden there
Having fallen from the skies

I don't need all these words
I don't want all the proofs
The things which have occurred
Are turning to absurd.

Emotions do refute,
Experience is true,
These souls all are ****,
Not enemies for you.
And what you did you knew.

You broke all laws
Whilst envy our moral
This grief you caused
Is evil of beyond.
Why waiting no response?
Explosions of your bombs
Are patiently calmed.

You say that black is white
And call us for negotiation
You name it's situation
No wrong no right
You call my land location
Depreciate my nation.
The only questionʼs why.
Thoughts that many of us had at the very beginning of the war in Ukraine. We tried to understand why. But time passes and now the main question is "how". This poem is included to "I WAR" poetry collection.

sticking to my guns,
i never realized that
they’re pointing at me.

Cascade

The days fall together
like books falling
from a shelf.

The walls have faces
where the clocks
lost hands.

And it is,
so it is,
and shall be
in a cascade of
goose-flesh
and
happiness.

If I had the words,
Then I wouldn't have to write
You'd look at me and hear a song, instead

The notes are what you'd learn
The rhythm, what you'd feel
A signal flare, illuminating overhead

In kind, we'd bond
Words, lost from you as well
Looking warmly, eyes held in hold

In truth, our smiles would stretch miles,
While in the end,
Our stories remain untold

She had that
octopus smile,
always reaching for
something.
I was her small
fish; her handmaid.
I lived in her nebulous
world for far too long.
Inky confusion...

There's a reason for
your treason, said the
old man to the shark,
but Hem forgot, a beast
is a beast, they do
beastly things.
We all have to eat.

I'm done being the
meal.
It's your Ocean,
I'm just trying to
swim in it.

You're an oyster,
and I want your
pearl,
but I won't drown
for it.
