The skies are so beautiful tonight
They wait for our founded love
Under the moonlight
The fullness of it's sheen
Where we surrender our best
In the sweet sweats of our dreams
The whine and the punts
In the sweet sweats of our dreams

The clouds are still grey tonight
They await for our sacrifice
Our touch, the sighs, the bangs
The trueness of their sight
Where our eyes steals our hearts  
In the sweet sweats of our dreams
The whine and the punts
In the sweet sweats of our dreams
Missing you!
With gestures increasingly erratic with every strike
And punts as constant as ink gliding across ivory
Our vigilant artisan gathers his wisdom on combat's eve.
This is a little Sijo that I wrote to reflect my long-term love for Eastern culture. I felt inspired to write this after watching too much of "Two Best Friends Play Yakuza 4."

I am the particle
hidden within
inside the crevice
cracks and traps
of the icy cave

I am the particle
winded outside
pictured in tides
hunts and punts
of capped feet

I am a particle
forming time
touching dreams
beating drums
making love

I am a particle
significant and low
slowed conned tow
a sustained substance
a universal touch
How minute are we?
betterdays Nov 2014
some days i write
rafts and barks,
kayaks and corricles.

some days, a mere log,
set hopefully upon the water.

some days, dories and yachts
pinnaces, sloops, ketches and tugboats

on rare occassions,
great two and three masted ships,
schooners and galleons
filled with treasure..

more often scows, punts
and barges,
work man like and useful,
but not alway pretty

all painstakingly,
crafted...
with planks of words
nailed together with punctuation...
and caulked, with my soul...
sanded down by thought
polished, oiled and varnished,
with love...

then i set my sails,
my inspiration,
to the mast of poetry

and push off....
into the great white yonder....
hoping my xebec...my catarmaran, my dinghy...
my log...
will find a fellow waterman....
sailing, on this...
the ocean of words.
please forgive me,
any nauticalogical mistakes
I remembered the great days
Where everything felt right
So many words I needed to say
I promise the truth and no lies
The days where I spent with them
My friends in the basking sun
They accepted me for who I am
I remember jokes and lame punts
I remember smiles that were made
I remember the secrets we had shared
These people that I do really care
These people I call my best mates
Now all I know is we are farther apart
Sometimes I think back it makes me sad
All I know you are all inside my heart
These people I will always remember
The fun we all had when we are together
The memories I have will remain forever
This is a poem I dedicated to my friends Jojo, Abdel, Alip and Hafiz. I hope you guys like it I mean it isn't much. This poem is about friendship and the title that was given is due to the group name that were given to us. I hope you guys enjoy it

I got drunk once in Seattle
Once, and only once.

The quarterback throws passes
The punter is one who punts

She says she likes country
He says he likes *****

Is there any hope for the country
Now that gone is Donald the Dunce?

— The End —
