His right arm reaches out and up and falls back to his side

Deathless Aches, Heart's Desires
Deathless Aches, Heart's Desires
Thoughts of Heart are as mystical ships that traverse
Ranging amidst the restless ocean ways,
Their crimson prows surging through the sunrise,
Their golden sails adream in evening haze.
Thoughts of broken spirit wander sadly
Unfriendly waters;...

Sonnet
In the Stillness of the Night
In the stillness of the night
Thoughts palpitate my mind
Now racing with the clock -
Striking the second hour of a new day.
I lie awake beyond the quietness
Only aware of an occasional car
Marking the stillness.
Closing my eyes...

A Refugee Called Average
Amid, amid, amid, amid,
In the middle,
Between never and everlasting,
A haven for people idle,
A place that never is.

More Dazzling Than Gemstones

battered by an angered sea,

A silent torment stormed and throttled as I lay at night a mist my bed.

A Pair of Mallards
Lurking sun behind high trees,
Winking slit at frequent breeze,

As sailor goes somewhere light,
My enthusiastic step dashed slight.
Little congestion were...

Passions of violent nature performed.
