Among ShadowsIn a world where whispers strike like stones,
Where unseen eyes cast chilling tones,
Where silent shadows weave their thread,
The Lord walks close beside my tread.
When hearts grow cold and hands withhold,
And greed’s sharp edge is bright and bold,
A hidden grace begins to rise,
A light unseen beneath dark skies.
Rivers of words like secrets flow,
Ominous winds begin to...

Heaven is for realif life is a lucid dream
a matrix in which we’re caged
in destiny as it flows
perhaps everything is staged
concepts of heaven and hell
seem tools designed to control
to bring semblance of order
among us here on parole
it is naive to assume
fairy tales we heard as true
so let’s negate all knowing
that light of truth may accrue
contemplating thus we pause

The Evidence of Things Not Seen
About my soul, I feel at peace.
I know that it will make its flight
to Heaven after that last breath.
In thoughts of Heaven, I delight.
Why am I sure of what transpires
when children of the Savior die?
Can I provide proof positive
that what I hold to is not a lie?
I can declare that I have faith:
“the...

The Crushing CrashI got crashed; I became crashed;
There must be some reason;
I endured when I was lashed;
Still, all slandered me of treason.
I get flown by the Pilot,
Who, too, succumbed with me;
Tooth and nail he had fought,
But who won was destiny.
It’s a world that’s too strange,
Of course, in the negative way;
Slaughter is beyond my range;
I can’t even think...

When Little Boys Fall in LoveWhen Little Boys Fall in Love
A Meditation on Growing Up
## I. [Age 6] — First Light
You gather caps like secret gold,
Arrange them neat, their stories told.
I trade my best for one you scorned—
The day I learned that love's not warned.
## II. [Age 7] — The Promise
We build a fort, our cardboard throne,
Crowned kings of dirt,...

Fragment of a BurningYour voice cuts through my morning thoughts,
While coffee grows cold in my hands.
I memorize each word you speak—
How foolish love can make demands.
You mention rain and subway delays,
Small troubles that fill up your day.
I turn them into precious things,
Though you mean nothing that you say.
My friends show pictures of their dates,
While I rehearse what I...

Eclipsed by Your LightAll night I sit beneath the weight
Of words I cannot speak or state—
This hunger carving out the space
Between my ribs, my heart's embrace.
You are not here, have never been,
Yet still I wait, remain unseen—
Memory fragments: your face turns
Toward a voice for which I yearn.
The moon tonight cuts silver-bright
Through stories I tell in the night.
How quickly...

A Garden of MemoryThe morning comes with smoke and ash,
Where once her garden used to grow.
My mother's hands lie cold and still—
The earth has claimed what earth must know.
She used to wake before the sun,
To catch the light between her palms.
Now dawn arrives to find her gone,
And silence where she sang her psalms.
The birds that nested in her...
