Optimo, they say in Pahree,
of course, you knew,

fine is just fine for the unworldly.

For such as inhabit my spirit realm,
nothing but the best of days remain.

Madness, as a pastime,
suffices as artificial, made artwise,
too beautiful for any common sense…

ah, yet, on such a day, we may
agree we find time expands,
at a glance from those
makers
of perfect sense
from pastence, old lines
yes, optimo, fine lines
the best, in fact
oh,
some time ago, when all were mad as I.

While watching Hepburn
as the Mad Woman of Chaillot,
because, voila, I sought a forgotten line, from when,
as a boy of seventeen, I played Yul Brenner's role,
while then, my best friend,
some while dead, now,
had the role Danny Kaye plays
in the movie, I never watched
until today.

But, why,
of course, your curiosity is piqued, perhaps

the perfect point,
what we reexperience
is richer than just fine, it must be truly optimo
to meet criteria of old age mere satisfaction,

whereby we call all our ghosts
to laugh once more, exactly as before.

Of course with somewhat greater effect.
Assuming you know what I mean,
those Jungian types are quite alive… the greedy,

the payers of tribute
to Trump and his ilk selling
Israel fine American genocide tech.

Ahhh!
A hoarse scream leaps from my body —
An ‘oral' stage clue;
A non-verbal prompting that my inner child is overwrought.
The endless stream of capitalist-driven sanctions
Force me into action.

Yet, I revolt --
And write
p o e t r y.
In your smile, my dear, I:
See infinite beauty,
Sublime dreams,
Joy, happiness,
And hidden secrets.

Discover a safe haven
And a welcoming home.
Feel a moving ocean of love,
Have peace like a river.

Hear unspoken words,
Songs of the rain,
And melodies of birds.

Observe the birth of a new spring,
Sense the fragrance of tulips and roses,
Witness a rainbow of hope and inspiration
Listen to best wishes and heartfelt prayers

Read thousands of untold stories,
Watch the symphony of nature,
Behold sunshine, the full moon, and twinkling stars.

He flew among the stars
escaping from someone who loved him
because he was too young
to understand
despite all her begging he still left
without knowing that he would be haunted
by regret.

On his strange exploit
he met many a people
one after the other he taught them
invaluable lessons
for they all were living a life
that was useless

Our prince landed on earth
where he met a fox
someone who taught him how to love
and be loved.

The prince, now sickened with guilt and regret.
took his unwilling leave
knowing he must return to the one he left
so with these final words
the fox let him leave.

One sees clearly only with the heart.
Anything essential is invisible to the eyes
Inspired by The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
Priceless is the air we breathe,
priceless is water.

Priceless are the drops of rain
that fill up all the oceans.

Priceless is the Moon and priceless is the Sun.
Priceless is your love for me—
so pure and true.

Priceless is the cool breeze
on a sunny day.

Priceless is a river
flowing through a barren landscape.

And priceless is your smile to me.
Love me always, like only you can—

You're the sole custodian of my heart,
keep it safe till the end of time.
