Regnum Horribile Ex Terra
Thanks for getting rid of Bush the Abominable
American states of planet Earth,
Always alien and sometimes implacable
Look at the funeral trail holding their breath
As terror crowds gather to share their joy
And in relief, weep and dance, is this birth?
Look at hope in pupils' zooms
And the ravaged state of mind
Reaching new heights and fresh moons.
We're still working on appearance, options, etc.
Thanks to everyone.
(Amparo Ouzman, co-editor of Poetry Life& Times).

NO VOLVERAN
No volverán nunca las golondrinas, amada mía
que nos vieron pasear por el camino
donde yo deambulaba, a la espera de un cuervo
que me dijera tu nombre, amada mía
Dónde estarás ahora y en qué lecho
despertarán tus tigres: de qué color el arrebato
de la aurora
cómo
caminarás sin mi ayuda sin sentirte perdida
amputada de mí,
tan lejana
y tan cerca sin embargo mi soplo
envolviendo tu dolor con mi palabra,
amada mía
para que el frío y no el cuchillo nos separen
-------------------
ACERCAME LA ESPUMA DE OTRA COPA
Acércame la espuma de otra copa
aléjame la noche y la esperanza
volverá a cercarme, como una cicatriz
esperando aquel beso:
Lejos de mí la piedra que te roza
y el ángel : ese crápula
que con su espada fálica penetra
en la última luz
Acércame la espuma de otra copa
embriágame de besos sin espera,
haz que avenga el deseo
tenaz como una sierpe silenciosa
Acércame la espuma de tu copa

A poem response to "A Vessel On" by Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU
Words
No more no less
A game of chess
To go to partly dressed
Fish through mesh
Words
Signs of distress
You could go insane by reading the press
For better or worse
An urge to compress
Words
that cry fearless
or dance topless
Seamless sWORDS
Bloodless mess...

Katrina: The Forgotten Dead (A Hommage)
their humbleness... like you, but not exactly
Or so you'd like to believe, despairingly, hopelessly
Helplessly
You'd like to believe you're different from them
Who are nothing much, but torment others
And enjoy doing it.
"No animal comparison please" -- says every animal
Rational being,
You don't wash your hands. You build up awful commemorations,
Memorials, graves,… Continue

The Path of a Creative Thinker at CTI
1. Membership at CTI is free and open to all those interested in either the production or appreciation of the creative arts, to include literature, visual art, dance, music, film, spiritual theory, the social sciences, philosophy, general humanities, scientific inquiry, education in general, and other disciplines intended to enhance the quality of life for all humanity.
2. Materials posted by Members of CTI are their sole responsibility and not that of CTI management or any other member of the CTI site.
3. While recognizing that the work of creative artists is often controversial by its very nature, CTI prohibits and discourages the posting of any overtly obscene and intentionally inflammatory material. These include overt pornography, racist diatribes, religious slander, and any postings promoting discrimination against or the oppression of other human beings.
4. In the interest of stimulating creative growth, we encourage dialogue and even debate. However, Members should avoid leaving intentionally offensive or antagonistic remarks on the pages of Fellow Members. We can disagree and still remain a harmonious community.
5. Explore, grow, share, and enjoy your creative success.
Please remember, these guidelines are likely to evolve as the site itself continues to evolve and develop. We welcome and encourage your input. After all, yours are some of the best minds on the planet so we would be very foolish not to listen to what you have to say.

Thanks for the returning hello, better late than never, but we all know how busy we are, some more than others, as they want to beat their life candled as it's running off.
