A tap on the shoulder, And the weight of the world shifts. Like a car with a blown out clutch. Clutched in my hands are fragmented words. Words... My words turned you away from me. So, I turn about face, to face the music. Only to face a mere reflection. A photo copied piece of … Continue reading Turn

Tera Firma
My Feet on the ground, Head in the sky; but earthbound. Imprisoned — but free.
The Promised Land
The brazen breeze, and bitter taste. A thousand grains, not one a waste. Heat assaults without reason. Burning with tears of treason. The barren stretches will consume, all who falter in it’s womb. Blood stained land! By an act of man, or by the devils hand? Flesh of my flesh. Fused together we mesh, Blood … Continue reading The Promised Land
Triumphant
Darkness swallows up the sky, Light extinguished, life will die. A blank canvas of nothingness. The totality of eternity is a mess. A burst of light breaks the scene. Life reforms in the in between. Blooming in a deadly drought. Idol hands are sowing doubt. Years of suffrage ignite, Counting down the final fight. Who … Continue reading Triumphant
On the Wing
Transcend the ramparts, Watch out for false starts. Ready... Set... No! Dropping down from the sky, Never batting an eye. Death strikes, With false likes. Burned hopes, And dumb dopes. One failire leads to catastrophe. Life goes on — with or without me.
Bliss?
Carnal bliss. What is this? To drop high, Or fly. Go low, Fast or slow. Transcend the boundaries between the vail. Pure ecstasy... Regardless if you win or fail.
Lost Souls – 3 Haikus
The Damned Dragged under the earth. Pulled apart by past demons. My soul burns brightly. The Forsaken Lost and forgotten, Swimming in the river Lethe. Soul lost forever. The Redeemed Pulled out of deaths grip. Ascending stairway of light. Forever shining.
Paradoxical Conundrums
Trapped in an open box. Plagued by an unseen pox. Stuck in wet cement. Unsure of life’s intent. Broken without a scar. Running, but can’t go far. Drowning in an empty pool. Benevolent but truly cruel. Problematic strife, Leads to a deathlike life.
Nightly
Awakened by silence... The absence of you lays leaden on my heart. I sit alone in this room tearing myself apart. Nothingness is my only friend, It stays with me until the bitter end. Nightmares are the byway to see you again. I need them, I hate them, God please... Amen Sleepless and anxious I … Continue reading Nightly
One Day at a Time
Bad Days Let’s face it, some days suck. You feel like you woke up on the wrong side of the bed and stumbled down a cliff through a patch of cacti. I had a day when I lost my wallet and realized it after everything was wrung up. I had a cart overflowing with food, … Continue reading One Day at a Time
