Strange Ways, Here We Come
“Strange Ways, Here We Come”

nor usurping interloper
and their profound lies

Rites and RelicsA midnight shriek or sudden bang
Disrupts the thread of tales,
Entangled in unconscious mind
With sounds of lashing flails.

Liberty of Expression Is HereWhy I am here in Poetrysoup?

Recursa AbsurdaStraight lines, sepia
The suppression of unwanted thoughts
Like time spent in sensory deprivation
Time spent in a droning room
Under sterile light hums, practically drooling
The vacuum of most moments
As standard as cinder blocks
Punctuated by things so washed out,...

The VisitorOnce upon a night so bleak,
frozen silent laid the creek --
air of death, pushed, swore
and swore...as if were fists
pounded the frail, wood door;
shutters noised, bolting and

The Tell-Tale BellsThe bells! The bells!
My looney, tuney pals!
The bells! The bells!
They curse and vex and howl!
The bells! The bells!
I must escape them somehow!
The bells! The bells!
The clanging, banging swells!
The bells! The bells!
The peeling, reeling knells!
The bells!...
