Choose your obsessions...

© Siddharth Anand

Choose your obsessions
For they are unworthy possessions;
They are the weeds,
You; yourself choose to grow.
Some seeds are rotten..
Still you keep them, them, you don’t throw.

All or Nothing

© Siddharth Anand

All or Nothing
The final race. the final decision
All disgrace or fortune all
Either I fall or I stand tall;

Demos

© Edwin Arlington Robinson

All you that are enamored of my name
And least intent on what most I require,
Beware; for my design and your desire,
Deplorably, are not as yet the same.

Death of the Bird

© Alec Derwent Hope

For every bird there is this last migration;
Once more the cooling year kindles her heart;
With a warm passage to the summer station
Love pricks the course in lights across the chart.

Walking With Angels

© Emanuel Xavier

AIDS
knows the condom wrapped penetration
of strangers and lovers, deep inside
only a tear away from risk
