Age Disparaged"The body, like the oak, is bent and gnarled,
The shallow-rooted mind is overthrown,
When we are near the evening of the world."

My mind may not be now
as nimble as once it was,
and although I...

Two Dog NightTwo dog night
A stillness had crept in under a cloak
of finely sculptured snowflakes, descending
quietly from an oppressively heavy sky.
It blanketed deserted streets
that longed for the busy life
they had been built to accommodate.
Snow, Nature’s comforter;
Soothing the urban animal
with a...

Similar IndifferenceWorld watches Humanity Fall;
Indifferences felt by All.
Few moments in History can compare;
Shockwaves rippled everywhere.
Each land of a different name;
Every Indifference is the same.
Suffering, Despair;
Proof that Nobody Cares.
Violence, Anger;
Skin Color Danger.
Hatred, Fear;
Hard Truths...

StressReleasing this stress
It's taking over me
It's taken over me
Gotta get this off my chest
It's weakening me
It's weakened me
Depression overrides
I overwrite
Thinking too much
Thinking too much
Thinking way too much
Gotta get out my head
Words will express
Release and relieve me
From this stress
But it's taking over me
It's taken over...

I'Ve Lost My Heart In Your Garden of RosesAnd I despise the flowers as a gift
it's wrong to condemn something to death
by giving it
now
your soul is patched for my heart
(as a protest badge)
and that heart was holding the walls of my being
I was a tree which searched for the affined roots to...

The More We KnowWhile novel revelations come and go,
discoveries that shed uncharted light,
the more we know the more there is to know.
We seek to see into the heavens’ show
with telescopes that stretch our earthly sight
while novel revelations come and go
plus suppositions pertinent although
while seeming sapience to overwrite
the more...

AngerI get angry.
When people tell me how to feel.
I feel helpless,
When people don’t understand,
I feel worthless.
When people doubt my feelings.
I feel sad.
I just can’t pretend,
That I can’t defend.
People make me feel like
I can’t express,
so I feel hopeless,
Hopeless.
People think I am indecisive,
So I feel negative.
When people...

Just a ThoughtI groped and stumbled through the years and woke up early morning groggy, hurting.? I peeked out the window and saw the sky bright, sun smiling.? I brightened and borrowed a smile and, for once, lit up my face.? My eyes winked like a star...

OverLack of communication leads to
misinterpretation.
That's something this present
generation deems to adjust to,
because based on observation a
lot of us tend to strive with
limitations.
We want new ideas to serve as
motivation,
We want motivation to serve as
new ideas.
Ironic isn't it?
We care, we...

The Ego In My LoveAll those before me
I only care if you loved them more
All those coming after me
I only care if you'll love them more
Easily, like water washing upshore
What if they could erase my name from your memory?
And with them you could write a better love story
Then you...

The Cutting Roomthe sounds of the night desert me
my mind seized by ill-fates once more
as ripples dispatched by the ferry
lick down this plutonian shore
dark deeds in my lifetime like flotsam
sailing passed in the after-light gloom
arrested in moments so shattered
and birthed from my cutting room womb
memories I locked...

Your Absent PresenceOh the things how we used to do
How we were, so happy, full of feelings
Just me and you
Everything then just made so much sense
Presence gone
Will we ever feel it this intense?
So sure I had it figured out
Lust or love, so naïve
Never gave us a doubt
Put...
