soaking up from saturated soil,
slurping into his compassionately 
empathic...

Securities reach it's breech,
As followers continue to leech,
Don't speak to...

Loneliness

Painful
Agonizing
Merciless 
Unbearable solitude,
When you are present, Time immobile remains,
And
Each second an eternity of intolerable 
Suffering becomes. 

At such moments,

It’s a hot, summer day in 1963.
I’m in Lubbock, Texas, at Reese Air Force Base
And I’m climbing the ladder into a supersonic T-38 jet.
The parachute strapped to my back is cumbersome.
I can feel...

or merely intellectual property
or more intimately owned emotional...

Being away, hollowed my soul
I rush towards your...

It was in the year 2040,
