The Waltz Of The Werewolves

At high noontime, the tires are burning in the streets
The sound of barking dogs is everywhere; the cats of hell smell
Like never showered rats who are locked up in death row cells

Hollow With Water

Hollow 
Stay to be filled
We can help
To fill with drudgery and voids
To fill with poison and blank pages 
that we said was a love letter 

I wasn’t before, perhaps a little more
So now. Hollow that...

How Many Times

The Hand That Wrote It

On my saddened days
I’m hoping 
That angels might shine
They’ve done 
everything you can do 
To a person in my shoes

She can rest her thoughts
this evening
Sunny days...

Fathers, Day 2003
"Boundaries"
Written: By Tom Wright
6/16/03

Now just thoughts of his labor,
Like green persimmons, remain.

Twas like some withered old flower,
That doggedly clung to its stem.
Fleecing each morning sun,...

Execution

Execution

In the absence of complication,

matters emphatically mitigated,
compelling conclusions, well-received,
extenuating circumstance accomplishes,

bleeding for two men whose losses were in vain

By: Tom Wright

The Artist

Oh DARK artist 
What a beautiful picture you create
Not with hues, pigments, and light
But with tone, imagery, and night
The soul an awaiting canvas
Your pen the finest brush
With reckless abandon you work
Is the masterpiece entitled Suffering

Inadequacy

Thoughts that swarm inside my head,
Because of what she's made me dread.
So now I hear that laugh and die 
And see that smile and away I hide.
Her alluring voice just makes me break
Because a little...
