The Adirondack valley, mountains borne from...

In Stride

5/6/24

I got to grind
All the time
In order to rise
As it coincides and goes with time
An ode that's signed
With an open mind
Looking at it from both sides 
Otherwise
I'll just nosedive 
If I fuss and whine
When there's...

Trains

Here I am
with all my bags scattered at your feet.

The train roars away, miles away.
With smoke piling out of it and no trace of me.

Had a nightmare last night
that I left you behind

Full Speed Ahead

One step closer to finishing the project,
The deadline is fast approaching,
and it has to be perfect.
Working hours after hours not to fall behind,
The family is eating dinner—another night without Mom, no need to remind.

All the  other trees were budding and expressing fruitful promise,
Producing and flourishing...

You’re on your own pedestal and I can’t reach out to you
You’re standing tall while others fall behind you too
Sorry if I let you down, but you rise from the ashes somehow
You ride the flames...

Frankenstein

7/25/21


Until infinity
In any vicinity
Let me put it out there officially
I smoke and drink religiously

And that all of it was done deliberately
Don't need your...

Outside Looking In

Days keep dragging on, 
They blur all together. 
I can barely look at things the same. 
There is nothing I want more than to see the sun again, 
To love like I had before.

Stolen Van Life

A fair pile of graded kindling and fresh limbs.
Wooden spring, deep brooding in each fiber, the damp air won't help.
White fire, a searing brain, a taxing task, omni-repetitive, still
