You conjured up demons in my brain
You drove them away...

Quiet Waters
Streams of blue fluid 
Flows downward 
As fragile carcasses decay 
Without a peep of a sound

We’re in the brink of disaster… 

Who invited such fear and anguish?
Who could lead us to quiet waters?

We bleed…
Polluting the...

She stands at the edge of the precipice,
looking down towards her future.
The last tears that she will ever cry,
falling from her eyes, 
then falling into oblivion.
She watches them drop 
as they disappear forever.
Yet, she laughs...

Why the Willow Weeps
From seed to sapling it grew non-stop
On the tall majestic Mountain’s top
It spread its boughs and sank its roots
Deep into it’s fertile boots
But fear it did, though strong and stout
“What if the rains cease an’...

angry voices saying words that could doom the people,
playing with the hint of an apocalypse like name calling at school.

Saro-Wiwa
My tears run from the coastline
To the Atlantic
My grief is fueled
By the flare of oil wells
My hope is dashed
By the disaster of oil spills
And my only voice of justice
Is hanged with the noose.

Mr. World
What'll I say, about yesterday,
something wrong, no longer seems the same,
what'll I say, about today,
I wonder why no one will take the blame,

beneath a parapet sky of midnight blue  
Silver stars enmeshed and softened the water 
as she drew closer to the only venue of comfort...

“Wars and rumors of wars” – the Bible says
That being so, then we should not be surprised
When selfishness and greed are bubbling over
When covetous, malicious, power-hungry leaders
Bring the entire world to the brink of disaster.

Come, stand with me on the brink of disaster
Surveying the bedlam which lies at our feet,
And wonder what we might have done different,
Our future?  We might have been more discreet.
We might have given thought...

Old Man On the Inside
Consuming time is hard
Harder than many people think
Your mind begins to wonder
Pushing boredom to the brink

The brink of disaster
Mind and body begin to work
Motionless your mind moves
Your body begins to hurt

Unsettled and settling
Who can compare...

What all has come totally over me
Chills on arms am starting to see
Heard another song sung and played
My mind went of into space and strayed.

And my appearing face...
