Finding Abigail

“Abigail! ~Abigail!...where are you, my love?
I can’t see you, nor smell you, let alone touch you…”

A nebulous cloud encroaches the corridors of mind,
Where a fallacious hope seeks its refuge in silence.

“Abigail! Is that you? I thought I heard someone talking…”

Disembodied voices revel throughout the...

The world is ruled by Science, 
This truth will be known by these lines; 
By the law of gravity, we walk on ground, 
The human ear can't hear ultrasound; 
The science of spectacles is known all, 
The plant cells are guarded by cell wall.
What can...

Before I die, a million tears will crystallize.
Solid as sodium chloride, holding my breath I visualize.
Going through my journey, I am thankful for the life before me.
Appreciation and recognition I rise in value and price, awareness of my life purpose.
It was all destine, and predetermine.
Before...

You've always been thinking,
In the soil  you've been digging,
Groundwater which is disgusting,
forcing you to be demanding,
For tasteful water in drinking.

A mixture of sodium chloride,
A body in which you’ll abide,
A cage that won’t ever divide,
The horizon that will guide,
To where you can live alongside.

The attractor...

When lyrics and music are combined they take on a whole new life.
When chlorine and sodium assimilate they make salt.
Separately they are limited, combined they are significant.
Together we can accomplish much, divided we dither.

Laying out
the body
and 
them

they  have released 
polite glances
promising touches
and words for lean against

neither polyvinyl chloride windows
couldn't prevent
stupidity
from entrance

you are forcing your exhausted tears 
on 
kneeling over the cheeks

screenplays  remain  consistent
only the pawns alternate

it is noon...

tastebuds seek out this mineral nice,
essence of being and all that is wise,
it pervades the universe but unseen,
salt in us is salt from men who have been.

for generations it has looped around,
from oceans to rain then on to the ground*,
from tiniest plankton to creatures large,
for...

The rain fell and the frost came. 

Pavements became sheets of glass 
waiting for unsteady limbs, 
ready for their fall. 

The back door opened, 
shuffling feet made 
there way down a glistening path, 
an old key to this problem 
held tight in the palm of...

This song is for my father,
The biological fallible author, 
working to clear a path.

In this maze of a world, 
filled with isms and societal twirls 
You warned me of the aftermath after the math.

The few times you visited no matter the weather,
Eating vinegar & salt...

kind of straight forward is always crooked. 

 Empty water bottles with painted cumulus 
  fluffy clouds on the wrapper.
 
  wandering aimless and empty,
 once filled with chloride redemption.

   you know you can buy them two for a dollar.

such is the essence of my functionality
along endowed saltiness’ purity 
especially bestowed by the Creator Almighty.

in human body, I’m an essential entity 
helping maintain health’s activity
ensuring muscle and nerve integrity.
