Darkening
Your thoughts are like darkening liquid that undulates in deep currents of hidden seas flowing through secret vaults within the rivers of infinity, objects of history, imagery, divinity, broken upon destiny’s shores wash your dark thoughts of depression drowning in liquid flows, thoughts turn crimson in chansons of mind, your thoughts are like darkening liquid that undulates in...

I'm falling out of place again trying to hold true to a life I never knew I'm calling my faith pretend as it gets me through another day, I write away in ink blue Ill in tendencies and sick of misery will I invite company to sin with thee I love solitude but 'it' dislikes loneliness Has a mind of its own no control of it as...

The Darkening Shadows
The yellow dying sun throws lingering light As the hills are bathed in pastel colours towards night The trees are filled with pink galahs And you can hear their incessant chattering from afar The kangaroos get up and slowly hop around As they graze near waterholes on dusty ground Those that live in the darkening shadows Awake to life in the Outback...

Darkening Skies Thunder Claps her hands Bidding me Listen to her song I am the bass Resounding far and wide I am the drum Tapping life’s rhythms I am the strings Rising and dissolving in unison Silence enters I strain to hear a refrain But the song has faded What was is no more Self disappears With a prescient falling Dropping, dropping When A faint echo whispers Let go of the past Surrender...

Light lights the darkness And in turn the darkness darkens the light A battle rages on Seemingly never to stop Who will rule the time? For darkness rules the night And light fights through the day No! Light rules both night and day Aha! Look at the moon- its light but shines in the night It shines through the rays of...

Darkening Sorrow
Darkening Sorrow It was a strange summer I wouldn’t say reluctant But rather old fashioned, rather like an old man Crossing the farm yard with a slice of bread in his Hand to give to the horse by the wooden fence. It was not a summer that will be remembered by Bathers by the beach, the sea was...

Counsellors Darkening Counsels
In the multitude of counsellors; safety abounds, But ln the multitude of enemies as counsellors; deceit abounds. Counsellors whose heart studieth destruction with lips uttering mischief; Enemies clothed with sheep clothings as friends; Friends whose tongues uttereth words born in deception. Counsellors whose mouth darkeneth counsel by words without knowledge; Enemies made counsellors whose looks appeareth friendly, Friends whose mouth draweth iniquity by cords...

The Darkening Hours
Night to day Day to night Your presence in the shadows Your passion a fire that burns even at the distance I am a moth to your flame Attracted without concern Even your rejection sweet to me The past not a distant memory but a constant reminder Calling me back I move through this...
