Manonton Dalan Poems

street lights are still lit up
as she fills my coffee cup
with same greeting everyday
"how's your mom doing today? "
...

i know-
you won’t join me
beneath the moon
to taste ferments
...

more... i heard
your passion
pigmenting new desire
as sweet as grapes
...

certain stillness up above
harmony after raindrop
birds start singing again
trees dripping wet; clean
...

you always tell me
what’s broken yesterday
chanting of hateful memory
yet you never ask
...

i open my window
to let my soul
wander
in search
...

… twirling key
on my hand
reminds me
of you, gone
...

shy cricket runs beneath the leaves
awe with moon searching for seeds
tiny antenae wiggles for safe passage
find frog’s sticky tongue on her legs
...

clouds mingling reflecting sun
it's bright and so great for fun
sun blocker news on this land
coco oil, orange peeling, grand
...

funneling rain by my window
knocks on my door i don't know
open curtain to watch the palms
they are still whatever comes
...
