To Felix Baumgartner
~4 minutes of solitude~
let yourself get into the hole of fear
but don't let me waking without you
scattered pieces of the height
black node are longing
might my body will be destroyed
to ashes in the center of emptiness
but don't let me wake up without you
there goes the war, wounds and hate
when i'm flying without wings
just a few minutes away instantly
humanitarian spirit revived
a perfect in fear

The Song Of Rain
how far is the journey that thou wilt
nobody ever told
just stepping foot
wherever will go
the trail is always behind
throughout memories that will disappear
sea swallows fragrant flowers
hidden on the beach
questions will come
also born from a scorched earth
by thousands of news buried
from within the walls of time
intercourse between earth and sky
i wish i was told how much stiff longing
who secretly falls from the tree

Louisville, CO/2000
Pour into glasses
and dreams slowly bubbly
Achieving islands uninterrupted rigging
dusk weeping face
Maybe the sky was blue beyond
Between Louisville was a stranded island
Within self-guzzler
Within pedestrian
Shoes stepped between snow
Who never stopped looking for shelter
Cold air from the storm outside
The islands are left in a staggered
The legs do not tick-early evening hours
in the hands of

Watching Merapi Mt.(2930 m)
I arrange the words
in the form of lava and rocks
a temple manner to speeches
of forgotten wanderer
then bury your heart
mute your view
silent your voice
I did not write a single word
in a piece
of seismogram paper
beat the words
the ranks of the river dwell
the spirits of the ancestors
'Why nights
so
you are here? ' you asked
I stole the heavens opened

After ceremonial with Tugur
Gur, you should be proud with this
falling on the top of the table
and you buy the Sufi's book

We teased by gymnastics pamphlet ~

or stop smoking
but we don't know
who is the king of our hearts
This hand may also have
could no longer hold
our children
because
as leaf

yellow
will soon fall
by the wind
and the rain hit
our heads with his love

2 Birds Conversation
'Am I allowed to die here? '
'Why not? '
'With grass, flowers or words? '
'They may be'
'Like the birds lay the memories'
'Yes, suddenly disappear when you do not tell'
'After he died in peace without worry'
'Probably no one felt the loss'
'Is not love... but rather the loss of freedom'
'Without a conversation anymore'
'Then disappear in death'
'Yes, suddenly disappear when you do not tell'
'Flowers, grass and your words'
'Memories that will soon disappear'

Parse It To Be Love
parse the sky to be rain, tears, flowers, bushes in the garden
o
parse the sky to be sun, life, death, put to sleep every day
o
parse the tears fell in my heart, did not want to run away, where are you?
o
parse the earth to be my breath, i breathe from the heart, will not break
o
parse the heart to be my veins, i played, i could not find it, where are you?
o
be thou parse; huallahu, allahu, allahu in my veins
o
be parse hu; wound, i return to you, then love will not be finished
o
parse it be love; rain of tears, joy; joy i return to you
o

Near a Bench
I'm looking for a short bench on a sunny afternoon
Here the night was bright before seven
I was briefly in touch through cards marked International Dial
US $ 5 to send my homesick
In the warm hugs and kisses
I dream to live in words
As scientists who loves their world
'To write in a journal, I need US $ 250' he says
Or more... and the world is infinite love
'Life is not to beg but to give the word on the books'
And 'money is simply a marker of it'
'Although poor, we are rich' that I said to you in longing
(Champa Street, Denver, one afternoon 2010)

Rhymes With My Wife While Fixing A Leaky Hose
'Life is not alone' you said
There are many trees in the yard
So if you sweep the yard
Clean the leaves scattered
I feel fulfilled that life is joy and sorrow bear
Like water flowing from the hose
Sometimes the water off and you're restless
But life is in pairs
I was on your side and you were there
Once upon time I think about death
But you will always live
And I will live for you
Sometimes love is the very first crossword puzzle
But now I'm more confident
That life is in pairs
Indeed, there are ups and downs
but we will never divorced scatters

Shadows in My Own Rhyme
here is the cloud shadows ran outside the window, sucking the dewy liquid air, not resist, what is called today? never falling into the sky, the green memories, grazed to the flat lands, once on the edge of the memory, the hunt for is almost over, only be a voice murmur, singing in uncertainty, the wind always blows deliver the weather news, his voice barely audible, crying is just a trickle of water that soaks the window, 'when would you arrive? ' sit in the center of indecision, the wind kept blowing, silent window, shadows recorded on this poem.
