My Heart Will Go On - POTDPOTD 30th August 2018
The gently swaying branches of the old oak should elicit calmness
And yet a sense of foreboding permeates the midnight air
Wild imaginings? Or did shadows flit across the leaf strewn path?
No...

Delivered inner strength combats heavy tides & puncture pokes,
Hidden forces compatibly energize different folks,

but nonetheless exude finesse (and need I mention charm?)

Trip TwistIn the void, sipping the zoid,
with mental properties of tripping on the spiral.
Falling down the tail of lions, awkwardly spinning.
With upside down tunnel vision leaking through.
Solidifying all matter that matters,
melting into the walls of your...

ForeverOne day I'll be preserved in sands of time;
glaring into diamond rays—white lights
the earth dissolves my flesh to fertile dust;
embeds treasures—secrets in a crackled skull
Metamorphosis—in the closet—white bones
the silver tusk of a unicorn; my wand
golden...

AlcoholismAnger, guilt and pain,
those are the only emotions
I feel; my skin crawls whenever
my mind flashes those painful
memories that I try my best to
forget.
Mornings are normal; I do my
every day chores like clock-work.
The daily grind...

studying her face as his mind devours.
Wishing this moment could be suspended in time,
avoiding their goodbyes up to Heaven she'll climb.
Married for years through the good and the bad,

when the eyes open to the distant lighthouse light,
journey begins with the warping waves out of sight.

A Life LostA dad he was to my man,
lost in a world of abuse.
Selling all he had in life,
to fund his addictions.
Digging flesh from bone,
stabbing bugs crawling wild.
Demons appear in torment,
beaconing him deeper.
A knife into...

I Am UndoneShe breathes heavily
The sand bag
rocks
tilts
it stops
she chokes
gasping
engulfing wisps of air
Sweat running down her body
She screams
love me he says
Smiling
She laughs
She looks down
To the her torn and bloodied knuckles
A ring that was required upon her hand

A slave,

He becomes a child to obey.
Oh love
Oh love
When love steals a man’s heart,
He becomes a follower,
He forgets his strength,
He gives up...

A puddling curb tried throwing the twisted dream
None bound for the scope spawned by a blunder.
