Dark Winter 201

Just suppose – a hierarchy rules this shadowland
Pulls the strings of governments, not walking hand in hand
Amend our constitutions, to suit their future plans
Throw Christians to the lions, as Lucifer demands

Just suppose – this world...

Butters Drippin From My Elbows

Butters Drippin’ From My Ears

Summer’s mostly over
I’ve not once mentioned Iowa corn.
It’s the symbol of the state
In which this rhymer’s born.

There are other places
That grows passable “sweet” corn.
I’ve eaten several others
But my druthers always torn.

In...

A Rainy Day

A RAINY DAY

A RAINY DAY, 
IS A REAL BEAUTIFUL DAY
AND THAT'S DEPENDING ON HOW YOU SEES IT.

Race To the Pillow

“Race to the Pillow”

Thoughts of love seem to secure my heart in webs of roses pedals and candy hearts
The feeling of love my hide from my heart but the thoughts of love keep my eyes...

Lonely Awaits

Lonely Awaits

This gathering furl of past
Rising from love’s once moist heart
Now but dry sorrow
Lingering stubbornly
Where once its canvas
Of vibrant color
Rainbowed the future

Today only flaking memories small
Drift downward
Joining queues of bygone erosion
Where emotions of stalwart bedrock
Once...

Baby, Those Were the Days I Still Want

Those were the days,this the life I made
I drank too damn much and stayed away
Life so fast,wild and filled with pretty girls
Sexy bodies, pretty faces and long curls!

I smashed your memory into hard pieces
Sold my...

Happy Endings

Happy Endings 


A long day in the office is just a prelude
to the kaleidoscopic formations
gathered beneath store front close out sales
and pigeon feathers as I head for the station,
the five o’clock hopefully on time

Strolling down...

An Empty Bedroom

The moon in all its fullness is sharing its light 
The trees tuck themselves in as if to sleep through the night 
Shadows run quietly to hide themselves from view 
The grass waiting to be...

Christmas Past

The days now, cold and gray
  December passed with less happiness in the fray
   while the quiet and solemn memory of Christmas slips away.
How long we prayed, hoped, and waited
  excited,...

Rainbow Eagles Vs Death Stars

Imagine for a second
      that the entire Afghanistan affair 
were a baseball game between two arch rivals.
The United States Rainbow Eagles and the Taliban death stars
The eagles start the game...

Speak

I look in the mirror and 
I see a girl that's scared to speak 
I see fear and disappointment in every word she speaks 
I see the untold tears 
That nobody wants to speak 
Wrong...

Life and Death

Staring down your enemy, conquering your fear,
Shadowed by death, by cruelty and despair.
The sight before you; is the same as before,
Walking alone, down the same dark corridor.

The beauty of the world is reticent to your...

Give Me a Shot

As soon as I walk in, 
you walk right up to me;
And I know what I want, 
but you ask me what I need.
I know you're just doin' your job, 
and I'm just doin' mine,
but...

Fleeting Memories

The dawn approaches
And the night dies
The sun is lit
To the innocent eyes

The business man works
Or does he work at all?
The world may seem so big
Because we see us as so small

One influences another
And the chain...

As this sphere spins within my hands,   
I can see and feel billions of people.   
They laugh and work and pray;   
Within and outside my steeples.

If you open your heart and close off your mind
Leave all preconceived notions behind

Shut your eyes and close out the light
Just let your soul drift like a thief in the night

Why When We Sleep Do We Close Out the Dark?

Why when we sleep do we close out the darkness,
Which comes creeping and crawling within?
Still it finds it's way into our conscious,
Which fades as the daylight grows dim.

We close ourselves off from the nighttime,
Behind curtains,...

Hostage of One Night

but i refuse to tax my mind
though the memory of him

Fading To Nothingness

I am trying to be bright
To laugh and smile
Like everything’s alright
I can no more fight
I am too jaded
Too strained
My nerves too stretched
To feel a damn thing

 Think I’ve gone numb
More from too much heat
Than from...
