The Malkavian Part 1 Perfect Version
His mind has all the meaning of a madman that is screaming
Tortured and tormented, a life lived to be lamented
Drained and defeated, his family finally retreated 
Leaving him believing that he was beyond redeeming

Unbroken Love Shells

of fully boiled eggs?
Do you remember there were no good reasons behind the periods of time we misunderstood each other when we...

Ode To a Mother
Queen in our eyes! 
Goddess in our hearts 
Alleviated fears ;Shaped behaviors 
Built careers ; Educated a nation 
Sang hymnals :Through the moments slowly.

She learned to live and love 
Unperturbed by failure unruffled by haste...

The Lonely Tree
You’ve all seen me, on your walks, your travels - the lonely tree
If you have had a thought - your probably would have just said, that’s strange,
but it’s nature - so let it be

But I...

Premium Member The Elderly Man and His Speach
The elderly man we call leader
Would shout as if our ears couldn't hear,
Then whisper with the expectation 
We would agree to adhere to his
Foreign invasion~
Ten million strong from every nation.

Who was that girl, he could...

Answering the Serpent's Call
The serpent called her

And as if swans carried her light airy behind
She ran through the cooling blue vines of the garden

Into a jungle that puffed magenta steam clouds 
Circumventing cawing crowds of warning green fowl

She...

Judging the Judas Effect
The Caesars confoundingly conjugate, metagrobolizing to manipulate,
The egotistical empires inflate, humanity is harvested to depopulate…
He who lives by the sword, soon to be entombed by their heavy hoard,
 Immaculate idols worshiped and adored, as for...

Escaping Rhymed Detonation
Malevolent imploded uncontrollably, 
  twisting wildly maniacal posies
   amid diabolically toasted brainstem, 
angst uncompromisingly yanked tresses 
  purging stinging speech patterned rhymes
 amuck iniquitous poetic verses hung

In Another Time
My worst fear is to be trapped in a world, where nothing is real;
A terrestrial nightmare that's just a façade.
Existing in a realm where there's nothing to feel;
Living beneath a Heaven, where there is no...

All That Remain--Titanic
All That Remain (Titanic)*

rebel, rabble and rubble
now lie together
in this holocostic heap
of what 
once was
my heart.
appearing dormant
wretched cries for help--
questionably audible--
arise from within.
flotsum and jetsum 
are all that remain...
as the moonless night
gives way--to piercing
streaks of...

Your Lips, Are Like An Eclipse

They Take The Place of Wine

A Deservedly Misunderstood Driver
A Mitsubishi breezes out of the South at Seven,
The North storming at Eleven;
The driver’s continual worrying of gear five,
The tires of the machine ever roaring alive;
In pyramidal slights of screaming passengers
Now-turned doom-alerting messengers.


It’s a driver...

Premium Member Chasing A Dream
Chasing a dream, she peddles her body
and dresses sexy, though never gaudy.
Catering to upper society,
high-priced call girls project propriety.

Easily enticed by riches, she yearns,
sex fuels the flames as innocence burns.
And selling favors for dollars and...

As the seconds of your life turn from months to years 
And the restless whispers of your unfulfilled dreams awake you 
There remains a distant glimpse of your former true self 
The self that was...

C - Coma
Come closer, the canvas collapsed
This clairvoyant contains no confidence
Constant creative calamity clouds his clarity, continuously complicating his collective
From conscientious to cataleptic
Cooped up, closed off in his cranium
Centuries and centimeters continue and contort, constantly trying to...

Octopus
Octopus arm 
circumventing mind
reaching soul
through media
lulled eyes
dreaming sex appeal
and riches
sleeping at a wheel
pulled by strings.
Women in clothes
designed to reveal
layers of make up
to conceal
with strength of men
fighting to gain rights
a life to abort
without a thought
as an...

Who Would Be King
How times change but don't
 for the populace of self made clones
by the past and mistakes often made
 of the outcry for the poor and eager on parade.

Surely politicians rise with good intentions
 but the...

Premium Member Cul-De-Sac
The cul-de-sac of safety comes to mind
when faced alone with problems to resolve;
finding that place where boundaries unwind
a safe cocoon where answers can't evolve.

A dead-end street this cul-de-sac supplies-
where only certain outcomes come and go.
Outside-the-box...

Premium Member Welcome To the Circus
Life is a three-ring circus
Thrice around and around
The jolly merry-go-round
Fun the ultimate purpose

Mesmerized at this and that
Laughter for every age
Exotic animals in a cage
Used to being stared at

Rides speeding up and down
Through hoops and loops
Joining...

the backdrop of the April blue sky
Employing the wind as he defies gravity

His great wings reaching out for abundance

Living the Words We Write
I wish I could live the words I write
And the thoughts that I hope they construe. 
I prefer the person on paper
To the one that is always in view. 

Emotions I express on paper

All The World's A Stage
You'd better believe it

Each Act encircles
daily excursions circumstantially

transversing through eternity.
Conversations comprise

realms of performances
pestered with dalliances

circumventing stratospheres.
You surmise it's

not a dream,
but utopian reality

as you project your image
into telescopic

Karmic repercussions
drifting through sequential

blockades of...
