Carry the FlameDestitute, barren, hollow,
Senses malfunction,
Reality, I struggle to swallow,
Critical error, dysfunction.
Pain seeps in, like water in the desert,
Absorbed in my core,
Grows within, with little effort,
Heart cries, tears pour through pores.
The black swirls once again,
Casting shadows...

Harvest TimeIn autumn, I came upon a garden of errant souls
And saw several souls sequestered there.
Some were well-known and some were fools,
But others were only tarrying there.
Though the sanguine souls were tall in bloom,
there were stunted...

Seasonal TrialsA test in that moment
A trial in that season
Unexplainable reasons
Can it be seasonal?
A moment in distress
A long long test
In the survival mode
With a variety of loads.

Chasening Truths
Baby birds
Tucked in warm pew-nests
Mouths agape to catch
masticated lies
Rather than growing
Mature enough to bake
The bread of life
Frightened animals

Rather than being
brave enough to look
At...

PEOPLE ALWAYS TALK
When you live luxury, people will talk
That's a show off person
When you live Austerity, people will talk
That's a a backpacker
When you're selfless, people will talk
That's a yes-person
When you're selfish, people will talk
That's a narcissistic
Don't let...
