This Over That

Why do I
post here
let me count
the ways ...

Saying
quiet parts
out loud
other sounds betray

Why this forum
over that
which one
best defines

What I truly
want to say
mazing through 
— the rhyme

(Dreamsleep: February, 2026)

Fruition The Magic

The key  
to the puzzle
 that last
final piece
Assumptions
misplaced
with the process
in play

The whole
always greater
than the sum
of its parts
Fruition
the magic
with completion’s
— foray

In Love With The Moment

Being brave
not about 
being different
Or being
indifferent
— but being yourself

Being yourself
 in love
with the moment
Burning the candle
whose flame
— in indwelt

(Dreamsleep: February, 2026)


Still She Whispers

How do you plan
to feed your Muse
with silence
or acclaim

Do you stay open
to what she brings
or muted
with disdain

Still she whispers
in your ear
in darkness
and in light

A lifeline thrown
from deep within
ignored
— to roam the night

(The New Room: February, 2026)


Piercing The Veil

The point of your spear
finds the darkest heart
To kill and impugn
— where depravity starts

(The New Room: March, 2026)


Fallow Dreams

Wanting so bad
to be good
In virtue
my faults understood
Each choice I now make
forgives a mistake
Displacing the worm
— from the wood

(Dreamsleep: February, 2026) 



Your Choice

Do your doubts
destroy 
your dreams

Do your dreams
destroy
your doubts

Your choice
on whom 
to blame

Your choice
to scream
— or tout

(Dreamsleep: February, 2026)
