I wandered through the quiet wood, Where twilight’s hush was laid— A single rose with petals spun In veils of silken shade. Its beauty called with voice so soft, A tremor in the air— A melody that sought my soul, Too sweet for me to bear. I felt my heart a tender leaf In evening’s gentle song— And all the dreams I never dared Seemed suddenly...

I sit here thinking alone in the rain, thinking of my sorrow, misery, and pain. I sit here listening to the thunder crashing down, knowing my life is better when you’re around.

They said the sun would rise again, But not how red it burns at dawn— A bleeding orb above the hills, Where shadows march and boys are drawn. We kissed our mothers’ hands goodbye, The station rang with rust and steam. Our boots were new, our hearts unscarred, Still halfway clinging to a dream. The sergeant’s voice was gravel-rough, It ground the child from...

If you own a dog, at some point you Will be carrying a bag of poo, At least if you’re considerate And follow laws regarding s#%*. There are some, though, who flout the rules And think that bagging crap’s for fools. A joke said, aliens did land And, struggling to understand, Determined that the smarter race Were not the humans, for their place Was...

Forbidden Ground Wandering beyond the limitation of death Trespassing through the back gate of forever Maundering alone in a virgin wilderness Witnessing the future destruction — of time (Dreamsleep: May, 2025) Bookends Enough to be absent he fumbled the words His mind ever vacant new truancies heard Those spaces beyond him those spaces behind Bookends of fruition — unspoken defined (Dreamsleep: May, 2025) Sognefjord Waiting A mile past tomorrow a glacier lies at rest New...

The Apple of His Eyes reflected in the pond, the fruit held precious in the lady’s hand. polished by mistake; the loot gathered with a serpentine backhand. the limbs of oz took hold, as the man held out his unwise hand. the cleaved, in juicy bite pizazz, forsook their love, served up bland. reflected in the mirror, the duo’s tears shattered their perfect life, untouched. day...
