Soft petals in the wind doth blow,
a dance of beauty a dance of woe.
Delicate scents so sweet and fair,
a cherry blossom beyond compare.
Yet each petal falls to the ground,
a sharp reminder that life is unsound.
For even a blossom that is so grand
is subject to time's unyielding hand.
Fleeting and fragile, like the final breaths,
life ebbs and flows until its eventual death.
Beauty may shine but it cannot last,
a reminder that time cannot be surpassed.
So let us cherish each moment we find,
for life is a journey, not an endless grind.
Like the cherry blossom we must learn to let go
and embrace the finalities that make life so.
For it is only in this vulnerability we see,
the elegance and wonder of life's mysteries.
And though it may fade, like a Cherry blossom's bloom,
the memories we make will endure
like the sweetest perfume.

Of paper and Ink
Warriors of words written in a land
Of Blood and broken toys
Jet black things
Set ice plains and caviar
Standing long into the starry night
Eyes gone blind to the images and deities
Of families and finalities
Of bones that drum
All fall in distant regard
The night is rip asunder
The echo of thunder
Rain driven storms of raveages and revenge
Fires of ice Buring the nation at its core
Alight of midnight sky like supernovas
Blown in a rage of the blind, a land of the blind
A mad god in a nation
Torn into clans
Rise and go to war
Rape of the natural landscapes
Televised and television wasted places
Vision-scapes in division of man and land
The pulse of blood
The heart beat
That bleeds on paper and ink
Roads to dreams a nation in turn
As this nation burns

"What does light have to do with darkness?...."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Like mixing champagne of miscreants
Within a metaphoric glass
Of crystalline stones....
Mingling amid these guises
Fatidities of peremptory phantasms
Oracular silhouettes of the predisposed
Rising in unison unto a toast
Toward the destiny of their very own....
Whisperings billowing within their glasses
These phantoms of the Pharaohs final call
Unto finalities masquerading opera
Where on a blackened tie, adorns
The guest of honor; hollowed eyes
Smiling, as he greets them all
Raising his metaphoric glass
To these miscreants, of crystallized stone
Fatidities oracularly made realities
Standing before phelonions robes of fallacy
Fantasias final chords....
Personifications, blood red rose
Playing, now, before the final gathering
Of eternities silhouettes, forever, predisposed!

Peering into the eye of finalities storm; while as standing upon times fading shore?!
Washing away its hourglass sands aneath my feet; expurgation into the waiting sea....
Legions upon legions; these, His Majesties seraphims descending atop clouds made of fire ~
Beckoning unto heavens four winds to gather its children; the day of razon has arrived
White robes and tears to soon dry; as the mountains tremble into the forest they'll flee!?
Indemnifcations justice to be extracted from these blood drenched scrolls; nonentity now
Left crying for mercy which they never showed; execratings pompous to fade as the oceans
Rage; time poised to wash away their bittersweet memories; from the land of the living....
Standing upon deisms once distant hourglass shores; King of Kings and Lord of Lords ~

Saffron grains of sand wedged into the crescent lines
Marking these wisdoms palms....
Ultraviolets consignment rising from the moisture gathering
In vassalages, editio cum notis ~
Propagations voice amid the spectrums gradatious hues
These prisms pirouetting in twine to times, omnipresence....
Proscriberes, afore the sage of Potents finalities decree; finis!?

Falling asleep, a very deep sleep that lasted for hours
Awakening to run through a meadow of wild daisies
Gentle stream flows through the middle_a tree with powers
Of apothecaries now no pain no finalities

Away from reality,
as yet drawn from it,
convulted,contorted,mixed and combinational,
it also took on permutations,
till the time it lasted,
it had me glued and pasted,
I still recall it,
in patches though,
it reflects my inner urges,
and finalities,
as many would deny them,
but I insist,
them as finals,
they can churn stomachs,
but thats the way they are,
I see day time heroes as rogues,
and heroines as swines,
saints as devils,
and vice versa,
is this reality,
or the one I wake into,
I insist 'the reality' is my dream,
let others disagree,
let them also dream!

let the world fall
let light extinguish
let the beauty of all
truth, life, nature
decay & fall
in slippery chunks
past the windows
let the world bleed it's self out
in dingy-dark water color
& slide like rain from the rooftops
our rooftops, our windows
our world
falling
graceless & graceful
over the last edge of sanity
the precipice
of all finalities
