Forsake bounty repel all cliff
Unprepared to kindle kisses

the dipping of toast
into the steamed cup captured espresso.

the terrific wind.
It became mutilated

Imagination, a Boon and a Curse
...Imagination…
To a Buffalo is a bizarre aspect,
Cause he cares not
Who is going to taste his meat,
Fried, Roasted or Grilled.

Come across and started crying,
Coz, pains were alike,
Sedative to each other….

Addiction
...When life gives you something you wanted,
But something you didn't expect,
It's a feeling that some would say haunted,
Their life in a retrospect,

Those defining crystal clear

Answerless Voice
...No words
can be spoken,
no movements

Through the Walls of Hopelessness
...There is such a chill.
I’d make use of my flesh
as a heart warmer if only
it hadn’t withered to naught.

the rags of skin that remain
to drape about them.
