A Rainy Train Journey - Happy Father's Day
A sudden rain
cloaked the rail path
Lightning strikes were furious
Thunder storms drum big
Windows drenched in rain
Unable to see the scenes
Uncertain about the future 
As we were trapped inside 

Dreading the journey,
Holding my dad's fingers
I closed my eyes;
Leaning on his arms
Lamenting the harms
Frightened me, cried

To wipe out...

Premium Member The Lesson a Dog Taught Me
On a stone wall, by the solitary pavement,
Annoyed and angry, with daggers drawn at everyone,
I saw my neighbor sitting dejected and depressed.
Though known him for years, of late he has changed much.

His eyes had grown so cold, and his mind, so blank.
His vision, I felt...

Premium Member I saw God, but now what
Line of enquiry:
Yes, I affirm, I have seen God 
But He appeared and then disappeared
This knowing that transcends mind, left me awed
But until what’s imbibed is assimilated, by fears I’m seared 

As death whispered gently into my ear,
a divine light appeared flashing in white.
Was this...

I  almost died,
and wandered
hospital  halls
lost ... broken.

"Yes, I affirm, I have seen God
But He appeared and then disappeared
This knowing that transcends mind, left me awed
But until what’s imbibed is assimilated, by fears I’m seared"

He's omnipresent, my needs are met
But by anguish I'm beset
No explanation can I get
So I blame myself and...

When I speak of love…
     -I speak of you.
When I feel tenderness… 
     -I am feeling you.

Up on the brink of yesterday’s blues, you
swore my elegance would never be forgotten.
I wear...

This is an ancient land lapped by two seas in the south,
          girdled by mountains the highest on the earth.
Many mighty rivers flow across this fertile land,

Alas, Gehenna
First descent
had every bone crushed,
as a true descent must do.

Second descent
was of a toxin
placed neither by devil nor god.

Third descent, fourth, and beyond,
were of increasingly greater craft
and increasingly greater uncertainty.

I lay in the soil,
assimilated into
the common grave of mankind.

I vanished into the worms,
the stench ought...

No Gpa
the egg in the frying pan 
sizzled but mine wasn't 
sunny side up

my brain assimilated
everything but this
wasn't a simulation

i hit a wall 
going at least
sixty miles an hour

looks like i'm not
going to graduate
from Mental State

just 
another
crash dummy...

Broken Mirror
A broken mirror
A gustily reflection of misfortunes
I don’t recognise myself anymore
An honest look at my dishonesty
Yes, I’m a liar
The image distorted with each retreating step of shame
I take, and I move ten steps backwards in life
The falling pieces like sharp knifes
Pierce the ground with screaming...

The drugs are working
I no longer feel anything
I am ‘comfortably numb’
It feels weird 
Yes comforting
I don’t worry anymore 
About anyone 
Or anything
I just get up 
And go to work
I am a machine
I have been assimilated
A ‘Borg’.  Or was that a bore?
You could shoot me...
