When Dark Lust, Casts Its Gleaming Eyes On You And Me

When tears are sharp daggers that pierce a wounded heart
 when within midnight terrors, this spirit staggers
 ghastly beasts dine upon freshly torn body parts
 as tragic love's flings its many poisonous darts.
 
When piercing...

Saying her name 
is a passionate verse
every dream is a lifetime
nights apart are a curse

Days are a daze	
of stolen kisses shared 
under tear stained skies
watercolor memories

Sleep deprived 
by a compulsive vigil
senses soon succumb
and I am so lost

Drawn into this bliss
a surreptitious possession
wets natures appetite
and I...

I've walked these lonely miles
In spite, of tumultuous trials
Yet, doubt casts a shadow

My strength shall not falter
Though, my life was altered
Yet, doubt casts a shadow

I've held steadfast with courage
Though, times of small discourage
Yet, doubt casts a shadow

I've overcame each affliction
Years of secret addiction
Yet, doubt casts...

I quest my love from the depths of silenced shadows, 
amongst the reclusive dimness…
Where I compose my Soliloquy of Solitude 
as I gravitate to a ghostly grimness…
Fortitude I have none, for my hermitic heart 
pulsates within its penumbra prison…
I walk these calamitous corridors with the...

hidden seeds are sewn 
                planted inside my poem
               cannot hide what’s known

Listen, They cry,
Voters beat the bullies,
Check out the latest shock jock,
Red eyes, pub snacks,
Dodgy hair and drunkenness,
Infected crime and spared avoiding Spam, 
Busy wallowing in profundity.
Debating taunt,
Dancing the winnable extreme super yacht,
Having a dreadful across,’ the pod casts’
Randomness the cultural generated thingies.
Swapping the spray, 
Got...

Pen Wakes, Shakes And Casts Its Darkest Long Frown

When faithful pen, releases not its ink
heaven and stars refuse usual blinks
moon dims and lets out moaning mournful cries
poison arrows shoot across wailing skies
Paper cringes in desperate despair,
around weeping edges begins to tear.

At such times, poet's heart...

Please be loving and supportive of each other. You never know how much time you have or the difference your words and actions will make. A pebble can create ripples that extend far beyond our known reach.

When the moon casts its silver on the sea
And the cold waves echo their monotone 
I remember because you walked with me 
Of a time when I didn't walk alone.

I felt the thunder falling from the cliffs
Surround the sand-dunes reaching out to sea.
I will pass...

The Buddha casts no shadow
smugly seated at high noon’s
forever present moment
 
a ripple-less façade placidly
ignoring its turmoil filled depth
masked in fates saturnine smile

a somber stoic’s silent grin
mocking the wind blown leaves
amused by time’s chaos

plumply sated in his idyll
disconnected from all things
the Buddha casts no shadow

The moon casts its silver vault over the ruins of modernity,
Where the souls of conservatives and progressives meet in an endless dance,
Of mistakes and traditions, I find myself carried on the wings of a stream of consciousness,
Contemplating the contradictions that define our ephemeral existence.
The progressive,...

A Flame hath no shadow of its own
For light is pure and blameless
Under this glare secrets art shown
They shine no longer nameless

In the true and holy Light of God
No darkness nor sin doth taint
Pillar of fire,  tall and broad
That safely...

No cloud of doubt is ever cleared
until it is cleared right,

be it in the darkest midday
or most blinding midnight.


               Yet the debate rages on and on

You see, in the silence that surrounds us, it's only our fault that casts shadows on the path,
We've grown used to living for the sake of others, burning like candles in the darkness,
To be present when everyone needs us, steadfast rocks in the storm of...

The sunshine casts on 
The sea, the ground, your face
The sunshine climbs 
The tree tops, the lamp poles, the roofs
The sunshine penetrates into 
The doors, the windows, your eyes
Please wake up, man
To receive
The first ray of daybreak
The glory from the universe
Don't hestitate, man
To every cloud,...
