high walls electric fences barbed wire marble statues and
well manicured lawns a distasteful reminder...

As Winter's Icy Breath This Heart Reminds


Icy frost grows thick on dead toads,
winter's breath drapes snow laced airs 
great the sorrows upon this road
as looms darkness of such despairs 
Yet life demands this walk alone

Love is a fifty fifty chance
A coin toss
Either we make it
Or we don’t.

Someone will eventually be burned
With a fire...

our melody out of tune

sweet memories...

With  sense and music writing to imbue
Can anyone...

a hungry and tired cockroach
was forced into library of Bibles
by a platoon of chickens

with nothing to eat for months
it sat and thought deeply for solution;

“why not eat these Bibles to live?

     I dream of you,
     Knowing we're through.

Color me blue
As I think of you
A love once true
Has lost its radiant hue

Tomorrow I begin anew
How?  I haven't a clue

Happiness that grew

Look a magic in a tragic an addict, I'm done.

they gossip
they talk about what you do
they stare
they can't sense the act of ones self image
