...I viewed an ocean that I could not reach.
Water beckoned me but my path was blocked.

Leaving me a glimpse from my window panes.
The rocks seemed to smile a...

...The sky is a Luciferian estuary 
rolling and roaring in crimson flames,

Life and Everything in Between

...Every moment we have, it’s not ours to idle away,
It’s not ours to cosy in slumber,
The night is not faceless,

Inside cell of 16

...By 11, I thought I'd have it down by 15,
But by 16 and a sour sunday morn,
And daisy chains foiled into the moor,
And hands that tighten but ne'er lighten, 
Hands that strangle, stitch, and liven...

I think something inside don’t work right

I gave the voices in my head their own costumes

Grandad what did you want to be when you were my age

he paused
pushing himself on the soft leather
shaped by his years

Beyond Sight

...They seem to disappear,
They hide somewhere,
Somewhere in the light,
Somewhere beyond sight.

They seem to be lost in view,
Gone with time,
Oh, how moments are lost in clime,
Kept in the draw...

Still life

...Turning my orange days grey, that’s what you do. 
Flicking my sun over to a moon, like in a child’s picture.
And you make it cold. I need a blanket made of foil.

A MINISTER RETIRES: SOLILOQUY

...A MINISTER RETIRES :  
SOLILOQUY 

I arise as infant Phoenix 
from Akasha ashes

...We judge no one simply because
there’s no one here and hence no cause,
to assign an ethic value,

save when fellow souls are caused harm,

I chased my dreams of idealism to stop the endless maroon anguish shadows 
Yet your words failed to sing a symphony of mosaic joy

Shaking his head, following her voice as it trailed
He smiles to himself, ’give it time’, he knew, rays of Joy crack through disdain

...There lived a greyed, an old bald man
At sixty of age in a squalid barn
So rich that he could not feed his home
His colleagues outshined to beat their glome

He helped his men to mend their mout...
