FOR YOU MY DEAR
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
In some elusive endless rapture
There within loving web so willing captured
Like a willing love slave to all dreams
Longing to be true beneath the warm
Moist divine paradise of you
Where your heavenly garden
Squeezes up and down
Upon my erect clinging vine
Longing to release its devotion
To the moans of your obsessed emotion
There I am mesmerized by the hope
Of...
A LOSS OF MORE THAN CONFIDENCE
A LOSS OF MORE THAN CONFIDENCE
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
I COULDN’T FIND YOUR SMILE
IT EVAPORATED INTO UNDEFINED SPACE
AND ALL THE WHILE I SEARCHED
FOR YOUR UNFORGETTABLE FACE
SILENTLY OBSERVING MY EVERY MOVE
LISTENING PATIENTLY TO MY TOWER OF BABBLE
ATTEMPTING TO DECIPHER SOME SORT OF LOGIC
SO OFTEN LACKING YET OTHERWISE PROCLAIMED
NEVERTHELESS YOU BELIEVED IN MY RANTINGS
AND ENCOURAGED WHAT WAS...
HOPES SPRING
Hopes spring
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
Maybe it will get better
Time is not letting on
With no intentions
Of disclosing the obvious
We often linger
By the windows of today
Trying to see below
To the street
From where we heard noises
But There is no one
Just abandonment issues
In convenient disguise
A seedling tries to sprout
Through our concrete grimace
New life wavers beneath the sun
Where does...
IDEOLOGY
IDEOLOGY
By james a. galgano
From the depths of darkest matter
Where the whims of idle chatter
Benignly compliment
While they malignantly seek to flatter
The theology of our most primordial urges
Where unbound instincts overcome logic
And ruthlessly purges all that is held holy
Yet can never be based upon our own inhumanity
To those basic truths we profess to follow
Yet said aside as we chew...
devotion deserved
Devotion deserved
By james a. galgano
Heaven drenched divine within the shadow of your angel smile
Paradise found itself content within your warm loving embrace
Eternity discovered its salvation beside your sweet beguile
Love knew it was true when captivated by your angelic face
There is no tomorrow without you dreams come true
Yesterday should be filled with cherished memories loving you
Today...
IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT IS HOLY
In the name of all that all is holy
By james a. galgano
Scaling the dark side of an unfamiliar heaven
Where a crooked path of broken dreams guide the way
Toward the unlit tunnel of uncertain tomorrow
Into which our journey often leads without invitation
Filled with unlimited hope, misfortune and inevitably despair
The air grows thin as we scale the cliffs of happiness and sorrow
Our broken...
IN NAME ONLY
IN NAME ONLY
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
ANGELIC VISION HAUNTING EACH NIGHT WITH ELUSIVE DREAM
HERE EMOTIONS ARE SEWN LIKE SEEDS OF UNREACHABLE DELIGHT
FAR BEYOND MORAL SUASION CAST LIKE MISDIRECTED STONES CAUSING IRREPAIRIBLE AURAL ABRASION
AS THEY STRIKE THEIR MARK CAUSING EXCRUCIATING PAIN FROM WHERE CRIES OF SURRENDER AND IRREPARABLE DISDAIN
LIKE SOME UNFORESEEN GHOST WEARING SUCH FAMILIAR EYES TO...
IN FACE OF AN UNDERTOW
IN FACE OF AN UNDERTOW
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
THE POIGNANT COLORS OF MINDS TORN ASUNDER BY THE DISCONCERTING WINDS OF IDEOLOGY IN ABYSS
HERE IS WHERE THE COMMON GIVE AND TAKE OF LIVING IS DRIVEN TO THE EDGE OF UNFAMILIAR TOMORROW
WHILE WAGING A WAR WITHIN TO BRING JOY TO EACH AND EVERY LIFE ENCOUNTERED WHILE NOT BEING OVERWHLMED BY THE UNDERTOW OF STRIFE AND SORROW
THERE IS NO POSITIVITY IF REALITY...
IMPATIENT WANDER
IMPATIENT WANDER….
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
WHERE DOES THE WIND HIDE IT’S SECRETS FROM TIME
WHILE CARRYING WAYWARD THOUGHTS THROUGH BRIAR
AND INCLINE.TAKING WITH IT EVERY PROMISE AND AUTUMN LEAVE
NEVER MEANING TO INJURE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DECEIVE
THE WILD WITHIN US WAITING TO BLOOM INTO SMILE
EVEN THOUGH MEMORIES HARBOR ILL WILL THAT OFTEN BEGUILE
SO HERE IS WHERE I WANDERED UPON...
IF YOU ARE STILL READING THIS
IF YOU ARE STILL READING THIS
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
today follows
like any other
tail between legs
with shivering shards of fear
looking over someone else’s shoulder
as a cold wind sends death a familiar message
i am open for business today
i wonder if you will see me coming
no light in the tunnel
for this oncoming train
i prefer to quietly follow your every footstep
unnoticed...
ILL-DESCRIBED
Ill-described
By james a. galgano
So here among the endless clues of crime
My love is forever lost to some incalculable cost
So neatly written upon some endless page
Determining what was lost within undeniable rage
Misspent yet never forgotten embedded or imbued
Like a some forlorn emotion searching for a clue
That will never be found written in between the lines
Where love is always lost as...
IF HEAVEN HAD WINGS
If heaven had wings
By james a . galgano
If heaven had wings into your arms it would fly
To find paradise within your loving embrace without even a question why
The day my eyes fell upon you my heart was in full bloom
A willing captive of your mesmerizing charms I so easily surrender
To you I so easily render my undying love, affection and my finite life
My thoughts and prayers are with you...
IF EVER
If ever
By james a. galgano
If you should ever leave me
As I fear you will one day
Please remember
You will always be the love of my life
Come what may
Every moment we shared together
In loving embrace
For me has been a cherished memory
I will hold dear to heart and soul
For eternity
The time we shared was heaven on earth
For me
To be with you an impossible dream come true
You showering me with...
HEAVENLY WANDER
HEAVENLY WANDER
By james a. galgano
So easily romanced by each twinkle of her angel eyes
Mesmerized by those wakeless hours drifting dreams
from which arousal never escapes beyond the seams
While emotions entrapped impatiently wait
within the breathing shadow of her lithesome gait
Which wanders into your soul but never out
of the alluring whirlpool of desire she doth create
If...
HER PARADISE FOUND
Her paradise found
By james a. galgano
With a twinkle in angel eyes that is impossible to escape
Her innocent loveliness overwhelms her now star crossed love
That is near impossible to wait to hold her in your humble arms
To give her all your love and care while subdued by her winsome charms
She has a beguiling beauty now so embedded in your heart
That you cannot get the thought of her love out...

DESTINY UNFURLED
DESTINY UNFURLED
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
THE WORLD IS A LILTING LULLABYE QUIVERING UPON THE LIPS OF TWO LONGING LOVERS WHO ARE PARTING FOR THE LAST TIME FOR DESTINATIONS UNKNOWN
LIFE IS A FINITE MELODY LINGERING UPON THE UNWRITTEN PAGE OF ILLDEFINED LENGTH SEEKING LYRICS TO CAPTURE THE MOMENT WITH ETERNAL RAPTURE ILLCONCEIVED
LOVE IS LONGING EMBRACE OF THE ONE WHO YOU HOLD MOST DEAR TO YOUR LIFE...
DESPAIR
DESPAIR BY JAMES A. GALGANO
THE DISCOMFORTING SOUNDS OF CALLOUSED HANDS CLAPPING
ON AN OFF THE LIGHTS OF DIMMING FORESIGHT OF A SETTING SUN
AS TH WORLD AROUND HER UPLIFTED SKIRT WAVERS FOR A GLIMMER
OF ANKLE OR A COMFORTING SMILE.
AN UNFAMILIAR TREE DIES QUIETLY IN BROOKLYN OVERLOOKING
A CRIME SCENE WHERE THE VICTIM LIES UNCARED FOR BENEATH
A FLICKERING STREET LIGHT WHERE SHE ONCE...
CAST ADRIFT
Cast adrift
By james a. galgano
So many times love is sought
So many times one thinks it is caught
And the taste lingers upon your lips
The desire remains strong
But like a sinking ship
Out upon unfamiliar sea
Without life preserver near
You find yourself forever adrift
Without a hope or fear
To guide your course
Aside from your hopes and dreams
Which often turn to plots and schemes
For self...
CAPTIVE GAZE
CAPTIVE GAZE
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
WHERE DOES HEAVEN LIE BUT WITHIN , WITHOUT AND SURROUNDS HER
SUCH CELESTIAL BEAUTY ENRAPTURES EVEN DIVINITY’S EYES
WHILE THIS LINGERING GAZE IS INVIGORATED WITHIN HER HYPNOTIC DAZZLE
CAPTIVATING AS EASILY AS A FLIRTATIOUS WINK AVAILS
SETTING HEARTS AFLOAT WITHOUT WINGS NOR SAILS
OUT ACROSS HER BEAUTY’S SPELLBOUND HORIZON
FROM WHICH NO ONE WISHES EVER...
INTENT
intent
by james a. galgano
there she was without diamonds in her shoes
trekking forward beyond illusional hues
forever moving forward while momentum was in decline
persevering beyond the thicket of life’s thorns and vines
there was a moment when i dreamt of her one day
but that moment passed though she was never led astray
there within the rapture of the moment her melody rang
like an...
ETERNAL WEB
Eternal web
By james a galgano
Words have a weaving their web into one’s heart and soul
When interactions are unable to do so to the distance
That separates us from turning our thoughts into what we feel
Yet they too often unable to communicate the obvious delight
Too often we struggle to convey with certitude our emotions
For there are no words that can suffice too portray everlasting...
ENDLESS VOYAGE
Endless Voyage
By james a. galgano
Distant ships upon inclement horizon
Sighting fertile land never before seen
Searching safe harbor to comfort and console
Hoping for a leave from all deleterious routine
Longing for a warm gentle touch in need of reciprocation
Tasting a forbidden love as if it were mystical libation
Knowing full well the journey may end as it began
Without any discovery of...
DELIGHT
DELIGHT
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
the tabernacle of human kindness
opened to an ascending flame
within the world’s heart of darkness
salvation gently whispered your name anew
for the seed you planted randomly
sprouted angel wings for each blossom to fly
even if the garden bears no fruit
the soil within which you planted this hope
is thankful for your willingness to try
while...
EYE OF THE STORM
Eye of the storm
By james a. galgano
There is a political hurricane of lust and langor brewing within our humble midst
Spreading its nefarious dust of heated rhetoric over land and inclement sea
Undermining our rights with an uncontrollable desire for power in blustery bliss
In the name of liberty they plague upon our differences fomenting lies and fear
Using the media like weather vane to...
FORTUNE'S REFLECTION
Fortune’s reflection
By james a. galgano
Even after midnight hours
When all souls are sound asleep
I am awake thinking of you
The wonder of your smile
The twinkle of your eyes
Embedded in my heart so deep
Your inner and outer beauty all aglow
Forever emblazoned in cherished memory
Drawing me forever into your loving undertow
Where anyone would long to forever be
Adrift upon unforgettable...
GODDBYE SUNNY
GOODBYE SUNNY _ 081508
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
DEPLETED SUNSHINE FOR THE SWOLLEN TEARS OF AGING EYES
WHOSE VIVID MEMORIES WILL FOREVER STARE TO RECOGNIZE
THE RESILIENCE AND BEAUTY WITHIN SUCH FRAIL FRAME
WHILE EASILY ABLE TO DESCRIBE OR INVARIABLY PROCLAIM
THE DESIRE TO LIVE ON DESPITE ALL OBSTACLES UNNAMED,
WHICH REMAIN TO PULL BACK THE ARTHRITIC HANDS OF TIME
TO BUNDLE TOGETHER ALL...
HALLOWEEN CRUCIFIXION
HALLOWEEN CRUCIFIXION
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
THE PUMPKIN JESUS ROLLED INTO TO TOWN
DRESSED IN IVORY COLORED GRIM FILLED WITH IDEALISTIC DOWN
HE LONGED FOR LOVE AND PREACHED THE GOSPEL OF PEACE
YET IN A WORLD OF WOE AND LIES
HIS CLAIMS FELL MUTE UPON A GOLDEN FLEECE
SHIMMERING IN A MODERN AGE OF LUST
REFLECTIVE OF OUR PREOCCUPATION WITH PRIMAL DISGUST
WHERE WAS THE LOVE WHICH ONCE GUIDED OUR...
HUMBLE
HUMBLE
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
WHO AM I TO QUESTION
EACH UNANSWERED REPLY
THAT MELTS QUIETLY
UPON EVERY FOLLOWING PAGE
OF NEVER WONDERING WHY
WHILE I SEARCH FOR ANSWERS
THAT MIGHT RESPOND APPROPRIATELY
TO EACH UNWRITTEN RAGE’S RETORT
PUZZLED BY EVERY HUMAN TEAR
AS THEY SLOWLY DRY AND FLAKE
UPON EACH LESS THAN GLOWING REPORT
BURROWED INTO SORROW’S SNOW
OF WHAT MIGHT HAVE...
HERS ONLY
Hers only
By james a. galgano
Ignoble heart in refracted light
Lost in a prism of enviable delight
Within lost dreams from which one never awakes
A lingering captive to what captures the heart
For what it so often mistakes as suspicious lie
For how could this be without wondering why
And the wherefores and when it is lost
Measuring the cost upon what might have been and therefore
Wandering...
HESITANCY
Hesitancy
By james a galgano
So where are the manual directions
To place the eternal hopes of humanity
Through the pinhole of fleeting time
How does one read the map of endless conjecture
To translate each ideal into some sort of reality
Are we truly a species of selfish inclinations
Are we clueless in our needed cause for consideration
Is this the exit call of our too often pro-occupied...
HERE SHE ONCE WAS
HERE SHE ONCE WAS

MY WONDERING TOMORROW
WHERE ARE YOU NOW
HOLDING HANDS WITH YESTERDAY
WHILE I DRY EACH DANGLING TEAR
OF ITS RECURRING MEMORY
THAT ONCE SANG OF OUR LOVE IN GLEE
CLINGING UPON EACH INDENTURED PHRASE
AND EMPHATICALLY DECRIBED YOU HERE
WITH ME IN LOVE AND LAUGHTER
WHILE EACH MOMENT SLIPPED PRECARIOUSLY AWAY
SILENTLY UNAWARE THROUGH EACH...
HER PORT OF CALLING
Her port of calling
By james a. galgano
The crystal reflection from fractal delight
Spread its glimpse of amazement across silent night
Filling each heartbeat in thunderous palpitation
While captivating every sense in wreckless abandon
Where destiny is erotically embraced by emotion inflamed
At the mere sight of beauteous blossom of her innocent glow
As it effortlessly mesmerizes every...

DELIGHTFULLY WEIRD
Delightfully Weird…………..by james a. galgano
Omnipotently unrealistic yet with clarity
She whispers to a near sightless owl
Searching for a homeland ‘s insecurity
Where unabashed freedom rings still
A place still filled with human kindness
As hope effervescently springs upon a pristine
Babbling brooks calming unwritten verse
To tomorrows youthful innocence
Absent of the hypocrisy that comes...
DESPERATE DIATRIBE
Desperate diatribe
By james a. galgano
Here we go again down that spiraling path to nowhere slowly
Carrying our excess baggage of imperialist swine
Past the metal detectors , which are unable to detect what is on our mind, yet struggles to do so in some quaint deity’s name
Our actions rationale and claim to fame, while we destroy all others existence for monetary gain, as well as the ability to...
FATE ACCOMPLI
Fate Accompli
By james a. galgano
Life, no laughing matter
The idle wild
The clitter clatter
Of passing minutes unfulfilled
In slim hope
Of some elusive thrill
To the final guffaw
The disbelief
To the shock and awe
Of all that befalls upon you
Along your lonely way
Out of inclement darkness
Into inevitable fray
Scarred, consumed , defiled
Driven nearly wild
To the point of no tomorrow
In the...
FAUX ETERNITY
FAUX ETERNITY
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
ONCE THERE WAS A DREAM
FROM WHICH WE NEVER WANTED TO WAKE
IT WAS FILLED WITH HAPPINESS AND LOVE
THAT WAS TRUE AND NEVER CAUSE HEARTBREAK
IT WOULD FILL OUR SOULS AND HEARTS WITH ETERNAL SMILE
IN A LAND AND LIFE WHERE
WE WOULD CARE DEEPLY FOR EACH OTHER ALL THE WHILE
YET WHO WERE WE TO THINK SUCH A LOVE WOULD LAST
AND LIKE A RISING SUN BEGIN TO SET AS FAST
BENEATH...

GOD?
God?
By james a. galgano
If god is a co-pilot
He must be drunk at the wheel
Unable to think
As unable to feel
Too often imperfect
So willing to falter to sacrifice loved ones
For a whim no matter how divine
No matter if named Allah , YAHWEH, jesus or DIVINE
So often corrupted, interrupted, involved or vain
Unable to describe or explain
What his/her plan for al that is was or will be
If this is...
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Gone but not forgotten
By james a. galgano
In the middle of some forgotten dream
My heart was lost looking for something
That did not appear as it seemed
Hoping for the best
Never planning for the worst to come
All these heart and eyes could see
Was what might be somewhere soon
Under the warmth of a welcoming sun
Shining it’s love upon us
As we were found so often
Within loving innocent...
afterthought
afterthought
by james a. galgano
Nothing sometimes occurs without
Some sort of unobtrusive intention
In this case a comely salve to soothe
Some savage bewildered beast
Often deluded by the cold surroundings
Which often enclose encased emotions
Seeking refuge from taxing routine
Then all of a sudden a heartwarming reply
Never profoundly or clearly sought
Yet appears beyond the usual dream
Awakens...

APOCALYPTIC SERENADE
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
BEYOND WHERE THE BOUGH OF THE WEEPING WILLOW BREAKS
UNDER THE STORMY BARRAGE OF RECURRING HEARTBREAKS
WITHIN THE AGING EYES AND SORROWFUL IMAGERY
OF THE ONGOING VIOLENCE WHICH PREVAILS IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY
ONE CAN ALMOST HEAR THE SLEEPING GIANT OF YOUTH QUESTIONING AUTHORITY, THAT HAVE SPOON FED THEM WITH ARROGANT AUDACITY
WITH THE AIM OF REINING...

AWAITING SALVATION'S SONG
Awaiting salvation’s song
By james a. galgano
Within a world of failing flowers
Filled with scents beyond all memory
Whiling way in distending hours
Where no hope is filled upon moments so brief
There each thought lingers longing for a dream
Which may never come so true
Yet in thought each hour awaits
For an entrance as if upon divine cue
Into embrace filled with wonder
Before the axe descends...

CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW….
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW……
OUR BILL OF RIGHTS CLEARLY STATE
BUT WHO CAN I TELL THIS TO NOW
WITHOUT BEING LABELLED A TRAITOR
BY THOSE WHO NOW SO EASILY BERATE
SUCH ADHERENCE TO PROTECTION OF OUR FREEDOMS
TO PREVENT FROM BECOMING THE TYRANNICAL STATE
WE SUPPOSEDLY NOW DEFEND OURSELVES FROM TO DATE
THE FREEDOM OF PRESS AS WELL AS...

CRYSTAL CLARITY BLURRED …BY JAMES A. GALGANO
SHIMMERING STARLIGHT DEFLECTS EACH EMBRACE
ENFOLDING INTO EVERY LINGERING SMILE
DANGLING FROM EACH QUIVERING RESPONSE
SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS NEVER FORTHCOMING
WHILE EACH FINGER PAGES IMPATIENTLY THROUGH
FADING PHOTOGRAPHS OF SOMEONE REMEMBERED
YOU NEVER REALLY KNEW
DESPITE EACH ENDLESS CONVERSATION
OVER EACH WAKING HOUR SPENT ALONE
CONFIDING WITH...

cumulous numb
Cumulous Numb by james a. galgano
Wavering lips linger on descending slopes
Of strapless shoulders shrugging a non-response
Face grimaces and reddens with embarrassment
Perspiration accumulates heartaches condensation
Eyes reflecting alone in wayward wonder
Search As the traffic wearily wanders down
Rain soaked streets where pedestrians dodge
Another global warming cold...
DAYBREAK (FOR JENA)
DAYBREAK
BY JAMES A. GALGANO
DIVINE BLOSSOM OF BEAUTY
INTO MY GARDEN OF HOPE GROW
THROUGH EACH SEED OF YOUR VISION SOW
DREAMS TO HARVEST YOUR RESPLENDENT LIGHT
LEADING EACH WANDERING SOUL OUT OF NIGHT
INTO ECSTACY’S RAPTUROUS EMBRACE
REDEMPTIVE INCLINE AS HEARTS SKIP THEIR BEAT
WHILE SOAKING IN YOUR LOVELINESS WITHIN
SCARRING MEMORY WITH EACH HYPNOTIC STARE
THAT REMAINS TO HAUNT UPON...
