Long Cripples Poems

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

When will you stop procrastinating!
What is the connection...

Hoary women gathered around looking at me...

How 
Is it possible to harness energy sufficient for a simple mispronunciation?
Made from miscommunication...
at best.

At our best we tend to fear; succumbing to failure's hardship. 
Countered by an offensive degrade;
shortly mind-coming definition.
Afraid for conformity's confrontational...

I had been placed in chains 
Where the cripples shed their canes 
And the blind regained the art of seeing.
It was a robbers’ den 
And as all God fearing men, 
I had assets needed freeing.

(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
Spare yours truly to the pain of sanctuary
To those clouds that surrounds within me.

From the table of melancholy, I was lost in the...

Nor the eager of the heart can minimize the terror
Whether born brave the sound of love weakens the bolds
Whether regarded vicious the aim to win often fail
The loss occurs...

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?

Dissimilar parts,
Grey matter disparity,

For prolonged propagation,
With cooperative output,
When induced by libation,
And, that's where...

Cadillacs cleansed of a fine week’s debris
Just in time for the polish of sanctimony

Over deserts of disheartened...
