~~~
Assuming we could do eye-popping things
As does an owl flying the night on wings
When no one knows of antics in moonlight
O for the mystique of a silent flight.
Imagine having circular vision
It'd be alike watching television
If...

Sir Henry MorganSir Henry Morgan, Welsh born
Wasn't a pirate but a privateer so it's shown
As he had a document from King Charles II
Authorising to attack enemy ships for gain
His most famous attack was on
Panama City in 1670., where he seized upon
Vast amounts of Gold.
Then captured Puerto Bello...

I Am ConfusedI have tried and I think I have tried
When you fail they are notified
When you shout they are silent
I will shout to that extent
You can live to tell
And forget to dwell
Among which is most significant
And mislead him who is so infant
I have tried and I...

Beautiful Nightmare3:33 am and my eyes feel the same open as they do closed
(I wonder if this is how she felt?)
Front teeth smother
Bottom lip,
(Except when I cough)
Stress stains my cognition.
Red drips and green strokes.
Acid spots
burning through
Solar galaxies
The darkness is embracing.
Demons dance to my rapid heart beat.
Tantalising...

and would stay there evermore
with nothing to read but coconuts
and cocoa berries upon the tree
with no barber, Dennis or lawman
things could ghetto might strange
but we handle a leader (let's call him trumper)
trumper stood higher, and gave a...

I Am EagleI welcome the rising sun from the comfort of my aerie,
Surveying my domain - the mountains, streams and verdant prairie!
I preen my feathers and flex my wings for another day of flight,
Soaring o'er God's vast creation cherishing everything in sight!
Ah! To behold the...

DistortionThey kill for their namesake
Blinded with visions of righteousness
Mirrored with images of self
Sanctifying, with daggers plunging deep
Crowds gather in loyalty
Massed in fear, assembled in hatred
Adherence to dogmas of a farsighted kind
While master deceivers bloom like orchids...

Reposing In the NaturalI will have no dirges sung at my funeral
No tear-jerking poems are to be recited,
Closed casket, I’m reposing in the natural.
Flowers I’ll appreciate your being liberal
You see, where I wound up, I’m delighted
I will have no dirges sung at my funeral.
I’m inclined to favor simple...

Intuition IlluminateConsider the grey past... A pale beginning.
Take hold the farsighted vision... A rotation of blackened skies.
Cast the darkness aside itself... Immerse into the illuminate.
Blinded eyes always ignite... Blue flash arcs.
Lured by the energy... Tightening inside intuition.
At what speed is your channel???
Free fall thru...
