Faraway men rotten six feet under, dead;
What will I do when death angel appear?

50 Words For Poe: Temporal
"50 Words for Poe: Temporal"

Iseult waiting for
Dragon's tongue
Black night eternal

Avalanche...of a blanketed...waterfall!

Life, its complexity truly astounds
astounds this old soul so sadly earthbound
earthbound but not without imagined flight
flight into blue heavens's glimmering night.
Night of ill winds that beggars disbelief

Still central fountain that caresses the sky
Its hazy droplets against the winter dregs of sun
Gone, the regiment...

A SignThe madman chalked red X’s
on the sidewalks of the houses
if he suspected
or had evidence
that people there
were unkind to each other,

The Moon Did Spill That NightI remember a place
with a heart concrete
that lived and breathed the night.
It was a place that glowed
pulsed in time with the pounding of the night's workmen,

I was only dreaming; nightmares
hidden in caves, silently creeping.
A mime’s hand, waving away his smile,
pocketed in eternity’s...

white hot rage claimed his soul,
and he bashed in their skulls with a lamp.
