La Luce Non Era Mai Esistita, 31-12-2013
…
Ciechi per la troppa oscurità.
Ciechi per il troppo bagliore.
…
La luce non era mai esistita.
E adesso… la sua improvvisa e intensa presenza
non mi rincuora.

La Festa Dei Morti, 31-10-2013
…
Realizzare d’esser vivi
durante la festa dei Morti…
Imparerò a mie spese cosa vuol dire
non sentire più il cuore battere
ma non esser capace di morire.
Cenere aspersa tenta,
in carne ed ossa,
di far nuova comparsa.
Qui è cominciata.
O definitivamente finita?
Ha unito questa festa persone
altrimenti destinate
a rimanere separate per tutta la vita.
E forse era quella la retta via smarrita?
Non è

I Feel Pasts
I feel all pasts,
As if they were yesterday,
Decades are but minutes to my minds and feels.
As if I were still two-tens and five,
Rather than three-tens and two.
Flashbulbs pulsed to songs played when youth was not yet known as youth.
Is today youth?
How could it be when youth was then.
I still feel me in your arms,
And you

A Poem from 2013
As The Light Fades
White doves flutter, dying words whisper
silence becomes haunting, and Angels sing
a lone filtering light of soft glisster
casts fleeting shadows from a white dove's wing
this lighted arrow pierces the dusk-gray
I shall pray for you on my knees my love
and touch the hard floor where your casket lay
to seek unanswered questions from above
I find

Again-Circa 2013
****Dedicated to my bestie and those late nights and early mornings filled with turbulent tears and triumphant takeaways from early lessons and heartbreaks****
Here I am again, coming to my end. Again, and again, and again. Same face, same lips, same eyes. Same kisses, same promises and the same dressed up lies. Always falling for this

From 2013-Once Upon a Time Bubba Had the Flu
Bubba has the flu
I do not know what to do
Since Bubba has the flu
I can not see in front of me
I can not see behind me and Bubba still has the flu
And I do not know what to do
Should I call Sherlock to find out what happen to make Bubba

47 Years 2013
47 Years 2013
My thoughts and memories come and go
To go into denial of getting old
Recalling only things in the past
Endearing love that always lasts
To observe and enjoy the growth of your kin
With abundant love you always win
To live to see another day
Continued love surrounds me
Especially YOU

The View of Anthony Hepplethwaite 2013
With a little tightening round the waist
the skinny day comes out to taste the
fatness of the light
I am in sight of something great but I’m hungry,
cannot wait
so I make my move too soon
and am swallowed in the craters of a Moon so cold
so very, very old with its yellow hardened crust
that would

Replay 2013
Places to visit.
This body aches to fake another day
to stay one step ahead
but if there was another way
I think I'd stay in bed.
Not built to last
finished now and cast adrift
and yet my spirits lift
when I gaze upon the face before me
a face filled sensitivity
duration and nativity.
I wish I could see the whole
wish I could see

2013
And it came to pass, when God cause us to wander (wonder)
Thou shall not kill
It's not it God's will
And if a man also lie with mankind
As he lie with a woman both of them commit an abomination
What's wrong with my people in this generation;
Guess it's the sign of the times no reasoning
Guess just

The day you were born, my soul was set free
From the chains and pain that held on to me
No longer swimming with demons, They all let me be
As the love took hold, the angels did sing.
The day you were born, my eyes opened wide
All my feelings of doubt began to subside
As my heart, and yours,

i can feel it happening inside of me again. the coldness that slowly chokes the love out of my heart. it's clumping in my throat and i can barely breathe without remembering every fault. every fragment of my memory turns to you, and i can see you walking away. i want to follow, but the
