"The Crow Bar"

she said,
here I bury my dead,
you can hear them sleeping
somnulent forget-me-nots,
snoring blithely unaware,
in neat rows between 
the thick,
ink injected lines,
their soiled lives
ploughed and 
turned over 
replanted
sunnyside down
expunged and 
wrung out

eventually,
not totally oblivious, 
they...

Fate deals an unfair hand
The door to youthful joy closing
on adolescent shoulders imposing
grown up responsibilities instead

See not the panorama
of pursuing cloud shapes
that conceal a frivolous...

Lying lost somewhere in the endlessly cruel lining of my knockoff purse
Into which pens just disappear through some hole into a mystery...

Why Don'T You Leo
Death isn’t that significant, is it?
just like life is nothing peculiar.

The importance, however, is that life is given 
to an individual only once and cannot be shared with others, 
whether it was acquired through one’s...

Break of Day Spawns Thwarted Revanchist Rebellion Among Biosphere
The last trailing tendril filaments
of moon beams nocturnally trace
fashion an illusory gilded chariot Ark,
whence upon celestial runners,
the approach of dawn's early light
illuminated terrestrial space
which nebulous solar city flanges
revisited since time millennial
hubbub of human race

Born King of the Jews

Where the babe could be found.

My TRAUMA!

My inadequacies

The Cynic
There are those who walk among us

Their hearts are solely focused
on what they'll leave behind

..prized possessions..properties..
..money in the banks..
..vehicles and commodities..

They never give a word or thought
to disadvantaged others
They never see the...
