Poems

These early poems offer glimpses of some of the creative forces that have shaped the development of his craft. A craft that shows his ability to produce short, direct pointed pieces (such as the poems in the collections Modern Traumas and Two Clipped Wings) as well as epic length dialogues sustained over hundreds of lines (for example Darkness at Bamiyan and A Summit at Jungfraujoch).

A good example of the former is the following excerpt from the poem titled Litigious Lives–

Are we to ever get clarity?
From the entangling maze
Of asinine laws propping
The blind stagger of justice

Stumbling time barred
Across limiting precedents
Limitations of statutes
Unlimited adjournments

Deaf to inner calls of conscience
Alive to bluster of legal counsel
Insatiable for burden of proof
Obsessing over nitpicky detail


(excerpted from Litigious Lives appearing in Modern Traumas)
