The Sunlight On The Garden
by Louis Macneice

The sunlight on the garden
Hardens and grows cold,
We cannot cage the minute
Within its nets of gold;
When all is told
We cannot beg for pardon.

Our freedom as free lances
Advances towards its end;
The earth compels, upon it

Still I Rise
by Maya Angelou

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may tread me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.

secrets beyond the boundaries of speech

By twenty thorpes, a little town,
And half a hundred bridges.

a dance between skies
by Rikske Kessner

Something unseen lingers above,
casting veils over the paths we tread.
Each fleeting breath connects us —
to the floating skies beyond,
to whispers weaving within.

Between beginnings and endings,
the now unfolds, echoing softly.
Each dawn opens like a wandering tide,
carrying fragments of yesterdays,

i crossed with the mules and elephants of the empires.
i do not need to be enough odd to do that.
i smile like i have secretly won.
no manuals,
no pdfs,
no power points, or making points are needed.
a language is a monster-branded with gravels, rips, traps, raps and rape. see deepba, deepa, and deedee's monster abs).
that is my kunfu joint tuneups of everyday.

I am rose in sunlight breathing
Buddha in middle of balm bathing
beckoning Heart leavening lively

I am a loop in Love, cathedral of pure
passion where two beanpoles
dance dare devils deafening
