Unmasking the Script
In borrowed plumes
a masquerade we stage.
Thoughts echo doctrines
passions are preordained.
From broken families
where fractured spirits weep
Mothers of soulful sorrow
With eyes that never sleep.
We inherit canvases
pre-primed with societal skews.
But the brush trembles in...

Before the Gates of Alahsar - Version - 2 - 12
Slowly, in great pomp and honour,
Ricciard leads his guard,
people on the parapet watching,
creatures of the night lands,
they have come,
ride on, men of honour,
into antiquities pages,
the Dark Man and the Captain,
they head the train.
Distant dreams of...

Memories of Egypt
I miss her, Mother Egypt
and those friends I left behind,
timeless history, marvels and mysteries
etched in stone by her own scribes.

A Mandrake's Gesture: Vol Ii.
The maiden's nipples
swollen, her bosom
flush with excitement,
hailing her goddess as
she slighted very
eloquently, puissant.
The goodness they
shared was of sinful
reproach, a somber
obedience of lovers'
admiration.
The dusk laden sky
flickered with prose,
the sorrows...

Archaic Rhyme
Heartbreak and spice,
everything nice,
Jet pepper and cracked

Variety and life, diamonds and
curls,
Feminine mystique such a sin.
Sorrow and snails, mysterious
things,
We all know boys will be boys.
With leather and musk, a little
bit rough,
Trashing...

Royce
The first time I thought of him
His name was playing shortstop;
Too few siesta’s spent, he’s found eighteen.

Spinning nurture, spanning missteps,
Till foundation definition was writ soul-side.
Sparkling child, Number One,

Mastery of Self
The anxious sense of self
Forged in a flawed reality
The blind internal drives
Percolating in the cortex just beneath
Ubiquitous is the struggle

Reptilian hardwired features
Dominance – an extreme will to survive
Anxiety, fear, and anger
Emotions hard to...
