Guitar Sorcerer
He steps into moonlight, strings ablaze,
A spell-bound master in a midnight haze.
Notes crack like lightning, dark flames rise,
Echoes twisting through spectral skies.
From covens deep and forests old,
He forged a sound both fierce and bold.
A serpent’s hiss, a banshee’s wail,
His fingers dance—an...

emergencyIf ever presented with a platter of choices
I shall choose a certain kind of calmness.
Unlike the one which holds leaves together before storm,
I choose the kind mingled on faces of ambulance drivers
Of my hometown....

A Writer's MalaiseA writer's challenge
Is like any artist's…
A many sided coin flipped.
Feel, see, hear, dream
Sweats tasted, presenting pasts
Saw, felt, heard, and dreamt
Bringing future in to bear.
Not just a flat, slim coin, mind you...
A presence coin, flipped of immeasurable depth
Holding saved wisdom's placement.
Search boxes present, now titled past
Waiting for more recent future’s to come.

If Only I Had But a ClueIf only I had but a clue,
Then surely, I'd know what to do.
With life's mystery gone,
I'd settle upon
Some course that I can't now construe....

FULFILL AND CONQUER GRADUATION SONGThrough the academic years
The feeling of uncertain and fear
Here I am on graduation day being my personal preserver
The studies were hard and long
I wondered is higher learning where I belong
There were numerous exams
Research papers imaginable
I got through it all
The lectures were focused on concise being pure concepts
It was “MIND OVER MATTER” that become concrete
I...

The Voice in YouListen to the voice in you
And it will tell you what to do
Shake the burden off your head
And meditate upon your bed
Listen carefully to the voice inside you
And it will guide you, it is the voice
That speaks the truth, it is the voice
That will redeem you from your
Battered youth, head strong
Weak heart, head strong and
Broken...

Oedipus loveOedipus love
This love out grows if not handled properly
kind love ,patient love, sweet love, agape love
but Oedipus is contagious good but dangerous
Bring the sickle and prune the garden.
only elites see the weed in the garden
How can a man keep his way pure and strong
by getting hide into the word of the Lord or

Considering my What Ifs
I was going to become a teacher
I thought it was my calling
I was young and thought it best
to go to university straight out of high school
before I'd go to teachers' college
Well... things did not go as planned
for better or for worse, who knows
I got sidetracked ended up taking a job
education got shelved for longer than...

The Transcending tempest
I skirmish amidst the growling hounds
The lashing waves, the acoustic sounds
The tempest’s call, a supercilious strength
Reinvigorating my might, impinging my breath
I solemnly pledge to battle the sea
Till the last drop of my blood shall bleed
I coveted to obliterate through the tides
Only if the serendipity of my toil abides
I shall stand my ground with a...

Life At Call CenterIncoming... outgoing calls
People are like call center
The hypocrites and the real
In a moment entertaining
Too formal on the onset
Someone is address by name
Someone has sent by God
To help resolve the issue
Everyone is please objectively
No subject taken by emotion
It's an error to give your views
But reason of mutual understanding
Somehow clear the smoke
Profit solution for the business
Say clearly...

The master of the old tank ship that resembled a schooner
sat fretting in his cabin; for twenty years, he had been
the master of the vessel, a friendship between the animate
and the inanimate had developed.
During the war years, the ship delivered high-octane plane
fuel from the USA to Britain, with him on the bridge...

Merrily got up as a cause to those opted processes,

You're a StarSsshhh! Ssshhh! Ssshhh!
Says who?
Says YOU?
I knew.
I doubt YOU.
Hush! Hush! Hush!
Now why?
YOU cried?
I knew.
YOU lied.
In the stillness
Is the sound of silence.
In the darkness
YOU shine the brightest.
Mind this:
A star
Is never born
In the light.
It's unnoticed
until
before twilight.
But alas!
When born
It creates the day.
It has found a way.
So YOU...
don't doubt,
don't lie.
It's ok to cry.
Yield yourself high.
Dream,
Believe,
Survive.
---Self-love is believing...

Two squirrelsAs the presented light peered to cross the meadows yawn
the timbre of the winds hollowness plied through the forest arches low to high as daring darts two squirrels did fly to here and there if only to dine upon the seeds of which they-had in mind. Against the grass she howled once more to twist...
