My chamber teems with tensions, taut, that logic can’t withstand,
fragmenting mental masonry with memories unplanned,
as bitter tears from hazel eyes reduce the stone to sand.

Dim shadows cast by candles flit across the haunted room,
beleaguer apparitions,...

Dead End Street
It's in big letters
And I can't see beyond the sign
They talk about messages
Well that one is emblazoned on my eyelids
Walk forward, stop
The end of the line is right where you started

Poverty is funny because you...

dead end street …
mostly elderly when we came
always quiet … 
empty nests side-by-side
aching for spring
but winter came instead
(the winter of life)
friends … good people -
town folk who raised this little
borough with pride
came to this blind...

 on a dark and dead end street
With trash and cigarette butts
 blowing at my feet
Thinking about the goals in life

And the few promises made

I got off the bus after a hard day at work
A storm had knocked out every street light
In the gloom of despair, I saw a shadow lurk
My fear of darkness reached a new height

Two blocks...

We are coming to get him.  He had best believe that.

Premium Member The House On Bleak Street
On a dead-end street,
At the edge of town;
Sat a broken-down house,
With no other around.

The paint was all faded,
And the windows were cracked.
The rain had poured in,
From the shingles it lacked.

The steps had collapsed,
And the grass...

Waste
Smog, not only in my streets but in my brain, my neural pathways

Holding weight.

Holding weight in my shoulders, in my neck in my core.

I run until I'm sore.

Still don't know if want to grow or...

Water Under the Bridge
Mistakes have been made..
Trials and tribulations occurred..
Blind sided by many errors..

The tree of knowledge..
Shows us many facets of knowledge
Along the ride of searching knowledge..
We stumbled and took a tremendous fall..

We decided to take a journey...

Drowning in utter pain
black dog bites
Once again
I can't breath
I cannot cope
Heading for the torrid gutter
via the slippery slope
Lost in the srounding confounding darkness
Where I blindly fear to tread
I crawl into the sanctuary of a shell

Premium Member Final resting place
Brick by brick I built my walls,
despite fires raging,
I preserved paths that connected
bridges between our breathless existence. 

Now that my heartbeats
have reached a dead end street,
let me rest my jaded head
upon your chest -
for fate...

In the languishing life’s listless landscape,
the paved path along convolute contours of uncertainty,
winds undefined to the fading fringe of time future, 
beyond the perception of the toiling time present.

Away from the throb of the bustling...

I was born in the dusk of March.
There was a blizzard, I’m told.
But I don’t remember it that way.
So much for “out like a lamb,”
and at an ounce over ten pounds,
my mother likely shares the...
