Addiction Part 2

My world is crumbling right now.
But I'll be fine,
Just give it some time,
Just take it one day at a time.
This isn't the first time,
Nor will...

Pray for the day...of deliverance
Verse 1
She shares a piece...of meager bread,
with her three children, at her side
She stares in disbelief, and dread,
with no future, coming into sight
She prays she'll see...another day,
and, find the will, to...

The Wrath of God
The fireplace kindle in the moonlight.
I am along deciphering the mind’s eye.
God is here with me tonight.
The popping flame was a yellow reddish fire.
The wood burned and the smell was a delight.
My thoughts...

I Like Muslims
One man, one bomb, packed with rusty nuts and bolts
He bides his time, picks his spot and halts
Then detonates a foyer, full of mums and dads and kids
Who are blown apart, blown asunder, blown to...

1981: a Texas Odyssey
Calamities…
assaulted by the Memorial Day tsunami
drowned victims & floating cars--
appendix detonates during the Season of Hell
haplessly hospitalized in the UT-Austin medical zoo
Delusion of progress…
recovering in the mobile home
plodding through texts of
postmodern pointlessness--
overcome with...

What a Darkness It Is
I.
What a darkness it is,
that as the planets rotate miracles
with cosmic power bestowed,
The Fall of Lightbringer
deadens the bleeding branches in Spring
as a requiem masked by your skin
paints onto the sun in a cloudless sky
The Stranger.
II.

A Warm Cup of War
As the suicide bomber detonates himself at a roadside check
I wait for my coffee machine's light to turn green and beep
Carnage unfolds after all bits of shrapnel finish their courses
I add my spoonful of local...

Change your name…
Change it for one that with its scorching stigmatic fervor will evoke blood from
those who hear it. That the word detonates at the level of voices and that the

The Death of An Angel
Sorrow detonates.
Pulling at my sleeping form.
Oddly Humble. In the Golden Light.
Why do I weep?
An earthy brook swirls
twisting turning under the
snowy white bridge.

Hurry home child!
The Frog never stood a chance
Grabbed by...

Broken Neon Iii
Splash of neon light.
Neon glass shatters.
A pale face looms out of the gloom.
It shimmers into the night
Smash of an engine's steel,
A flash of sharp car headlights.
Black eyes stare wide
Crash goes the ruby taillights, sparkling.

Elusive Time
Out my window
My garden
A microcosm
Of the cycle of life
Fading and elusive
Time refuses to stand still
The cycle continues
That first invisible rumbling
Decay detonates into bursts of life
And before you know it
Buds give way to blossom explosions
Blooming into...

Softly in the night
Ominous

Township Terror
There is a place that doesn't go to sleep,
From dawn to dusk,
Nothing changes,
Desire is on the run.
There is a place where ambition and rivalry are birthed,
Sycophants seize the day,
Sing their praises and the door...

Two Amazing Things
I appreciate
That these two can be served separate
Or mixed together to create
A drink that is first rate.
Who isn't passionate
About coffee and chocolate?
My brain starts to pulsate
As the coffee percolates
It detonates
A heavenly aroma that I anticipate
And...

Empirical
Rare forms blare
into the empirical hot sun.
Each traced in fire,
each outlined by the crystal
shimmer of the son.
Haloed in glamour
A play of color.
Of One.
Layers of imagery in rare forms
Dare to stare, brilliant!
Into the...

She Is Mine
Her smiles excites my emotions,
Her laughter spurs my joy.
She is the joy of my life, the joy of my hope.
In her, my joy knows no bounds.
She trigged my affection with her love.
And her soul...

My heart pauses as you gently tempt me

Octane
Octane rush and howls the surging blood,
Racing uncongealed, mercury switched and primed,
And in the veins detonates a nitro surge,
Swells the moon struck heart, ignites the tripwire mind.
