Procrastination

The invaluable dream you had in mind
Yesterday, you said you would take steps on achieving it tomorrow,

What is the connection...

Dirge of the Last Lap

I

The loud, cruel laughter of dirge
besieges us so greatly in the face of
wanton humiliation.
It comes mightily, crashing our aged
city walls, unearthing the foundations of
churches,
tolling bells in pulsated grief . . .

Dirge comes with thunder,
like the...

Burdening

How 
Is it possible to harness energy sufficient for a simple mispronunciation?

Countered by an offensive degrade;
shortly mind-coming definition.
Afraid for conformity's confrontational...

Choosing Your Life

You may say that I’m crazy,
Deny I’m a Christian,
But I say our lives are just what we have chosen,

It was a robbers’ den 
And as all God fearing men, 
I had assets needed freeing.

Sometimes...

Story of My Grandpa's Estate



Once upon a time
On a plateau
In a French hiding place
because in my opinion somebody wrote some cheques

and my father my mother said
was an ostrich 
with his head in the...

Rant: Inevitability

100 (Be Your Self)

It has been brought to my attention that everybody believes they are as real as they claim

And if this is true then 100 should have a new name.

Because some people are 50/50 like coffee creamer...

I shall find a way or make one

(Inveniam viam)

Far beyond these eerie things, where limits have no scales
Fish are replacing gills, with turbine aerated tails 
Sea level’s losing all meaning, for the humpback whales 
Ships piggyback them, harpoons syphon wind from their...

Sealed by wounds that healeth through time
I am asking thee to spare me

To those clouds that surrounds within me.

Star Light, Star Bright

Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight.
It’s been awhile since I’ve gazed upon you.
As I lay here, weary from life’s brutal fight,
I’ve come to ask a rigid question; what do I do?

I’ve hit...

Perfection,    born in the mind of man,  yearns  

imaginations of immortality haunt his soul
with his realized acceptance of a finite life
he struggles to understand the why

There Once Was a Woman

There once was a woman,
There once was a man,
The most illogical combo,
Since raisins and bran,
Dissimilar parts,
Grey matter disparity,
Which leads to amounts,
Of subjective hilarity,
Both must crave sex,
For prolonged propagation,
With cooperative output,
When induced by libation,
And, that's where...
