reversing "evil"
that could transcend our individual absence of identity?

into mutual belonging.
What is...

Solitary Confinement He's Everthing I Am- I Am Everthing In Him My Spokenword
"Voluntarily solitary confinement;
He's my eternal involvement;
I live in a single thought;
With the free loving heart;
I'm isolated with the Creator;
Separated from my old self;
Deliver He's everything I am;
I am everything in Him;
I'm intimate in time...

Reflection In Depression
A dreamer, words on the page.
Perhaps I am the empty book,
Pages begging to be written on,
A chapter is coming, but here we are,
Change and travel on the way.
Fear of the change is slowly
Replaced by the...

Within
“Within”
Shadow dreams
down silent roads
never taken
less than travelled,
the winter breeze
of the world within,
pulls out the hidden
message planted,
within
the quickening
attempts slow
anchoring,
the call persistent,
beckons, like the music
drumming softly,
lulling, calming
the rocking...

Love Through All Seasons
What does it mean to you
to be loved
right here
where you live and breathe,
eat and occasionally shower?
What value would you give
our investments of mutual regard?
Do you know
you can love
and be loved
for and as who you are...

Until the casket falls.
Until the last soul is called.
Until the final breath is drawn

When the dirt is unearthed

taunting demons will reign
as frozen screams pierce...

Little Cosmic Serenade
My little silver shooting star,
such energy you do possess:
A chilling, silky elegance,
from you, I would expect no less.
You twirl about me gracefully,
illuming, as I lay you down.
The planets play a raggish tune
while diamonds jive...

A Fluttering of Wings- Part I
She seemed restless
Their gilded cage of love
That she had begged him
To imprison her in
With the bars of his passion
Seemed to be confining now
She never said anything
But he knew…
She felt different to his touch
He saw those...

An Impermissible and Impossible Thing

I'd take handfuls of all these silly bits of
Simulacra, and detritus, dross and debris:
The minutiae and impedimenta that are all these
Constricting, confining rules and bylaws, codes and...

Beauty of Hope
Fragile light, softly glowing
Sighs on the breath,
Caressing the voice of the fallen
Leaves, crumpled in the grass,
Messy, strewn like prayers,
Always fading in the shadows,
Where joy once blessed,
Now, soundless memories, regrets,
Blowing on the winds, like those leaves,
Wrinkles...
