Dreams Of ‘Papa’ Burning fat off your soul with each word that he wrote Every vision a banquet to swallow or choke In the ring or arena with blood boiling high A man greets the dragon with hello — or goodbye (Dreams Of Papa: May, 2025) Sins Of Omission Intending to deceive with words unsaid In your silence truth denied What’s stays on mute voiced in your head Its intention — vilified (Dreamsleep: May, 2025) Smyllum Park The great deceivers hope and affection Leave you a foundling an orphan of joy As twins they’re conscripted in fields of abandon Where life takes no solace and heartache — deploys (Dreamsleep: May, 2025) Into The Breach Every war is different Every war’s the same Bullets fly and soldiers die With valor — to rename (Dreamsleep: May, 2025) Crossing Over A whispered dare a final vow the Rubicon behind New Light ahead through smoke and blood the final victim — time (Dreamsleep: May, 2025)
