A modern Beat-Generation-inspired poet, Joshua L. White's poetry is inspired by music, Buddhism, life, and death.
The dark expanse of the ocean in the corner of my eye
The desolate plain of sand
The harsh, cold sea air blows wildly
Seabirds squawk from above, flying
...
I lay in bed, dreaming.
Dreaming of Allen Ginsberg
Of the future
Of travel
...
The misty mountains of the Himalayas
invading my thoughts -
Little train descending the slope from Darjeeling,
delivering tea to my cup as I ponder jazz in the moonlight.
