Red flags

Red Flags

He hides his phone when you’re near,
Fingers fumble, clouded fear.
Notifications off at night,
Darkness veils the glaring light.

Silent whispers in his chest,
Half-truths spoken, half repressed.
“Just some work,” he softly pleads
But trust can’t bloom from poisoned seeds.

Location off, a phantom’s trace,
You’re left to wonder, left to chase.
His stories shift, they twist and turn,
Your gentle heart begins

Red Flags

Within me lays a vacancy,-
a searing pain deep in my heart. 

Despite how we had left things-
I cannot stand being apart. 

This cavern in my chest- 
It aches for you, and only you. 

Your absence tears my soul, 
and leaves my insides black & blue. 

So many priceless moments- 
(I wouldn't) trade them for the

Our hero on epitaph

our mouth owes a debt to your buried bones
a hot lead cracked in a jiffy,
  and your brain splashed~
    in the thick forest of Hanoi,
  with the stains sucked by soil
    as a flow thicker than water.
many blood stains on our flags
made too heavy for the wind

Red Flags

The commonplace
entertains the unspeakable.
Horror yellows in vaults.
It is all recorded, all labeled
all explained or condemned.

We keep the worst atrocities close,
create libraries to warehouse
the obscene and gruesome.
We have photographed
every current ghastly act.

Pundits endlessly debate
the proverbs of ancient spiders.
Dragons guard the cribs
of our future demons.
Serpents thought read our dreams.
Slaughter demands its place in the sun.

Who then are

Haunted Home

I wanted so badly 
to know every darkened piece of coal 
beneath your sooted mantle
See for myself how every well lit pane
Became a sunlit stage
Where the glittered dust danced so graceful
How every long hallway corridor 
led to every spiral staircase
Alway leading to something more
The home you built, the person that you are
I wanted so badly

Flags

One flag. Two flags
Three flags. Four

The red  flags were
Popping up. 
But I chose to ignore. 

From no pictures together 
Or letting the world know
That I was your man
And you were my girl. 

I fell for you hard and told 
You my fears. And you said 
You were different 
And I had nothing to fear

Red Flags

Did I not fall in love?
with a man in his boldness,
Matured at acuteness.
Ohhh he felt like home.

For the three months we pushed,
but haven't actually set eyes on each other
but, it felt like we knew each other.
I remember the days when he gave excuses for my "coming over"
I ignored the red flags
His Excuses felt like reasons

Ah yes,
Freedom, liberty,
Individualism
Melded into a nation.
Flags will be waved
By those denied a flag
Chants will be shouted
By those who forget
Patrick Henry’s
“give me liberty
or give me death”
forgetting the price
freedom and liberty
exacts from those
who seek it, cherish it,
fight and die for it
those who would condemn
our flag may raise flags
that denied them the right
and freedom and liberty
to do so

The Battle

Pikes held high,
Flags fill the sky,
Drummer boys sound the beat,
Musket men are on their feet.

White smoke swirls, ram down the ball really hard,
Pour in the gunpowder to make the charge.

Front rank kneel, back rank stand and take your aim,
On command back rank fire, then swop over with the front rank to add their shoots to

Flags    

Such a delicately beautiful flower
With a subtle refined and heavenly scent.
It stands above the others like a tower
And its sweet perfume into the air is spent.
Though it doesn’t have a great deal of power
It leaves most everyone peacefully content.
It adorns gardens of houses everywhere
And is planted in graveyards to show folks

I saw those red flags waving.
I should have run away.
But then he smiled, I was beguiled, 
and so I thought I'd stay.

The warning bells inside my head,
I paid them all no heed
and chose my path to follow his 
wherever it might lead.

I heard the whispers behind my back.
I caught him in his lies.
His silver tongue

Imagine if the wind didn't blow anymore
or the sun didn't disappear behind the mountains.
Imagine if the barriers didn't exist, 
all free to enjoy what we have been given.

Imagine if our wings had never been cut to be flying above our beliefs.
Imagine if there were no soldiers to be sent to fight,
no men death on the

You'Re No Good For Me

Closed off heart
when you came around.
Persistent you were
with your primitive tongue.
Sweet lies lined your foreign lips—
Surprise. The soul wanted in and considered this.   

Red flags—waved in the wind.
So many, but who was counting.
Those who live long say ‘Life is Short’. 
I say—
Adventure is a reward to the seeker who sought.
No need to fear
