Last Turn of the Morning Carousel Forever Turn the Midnight Carousel Birthday Poem For Merry

An artist who finds a natural home
Among the paupers whose graves are marked with serial numbers
Instead of headstones?
I hate gimmicks and dismiss them
Like any other moment of mediocrity.  
The truth...

I’ve been programmed to believe in your unstable, callous ways
I’ve been a monarch butterfly, soaring through the fields these days

No stories this time
No gimmicks, no music
This is the spawn of silence
This is the product of utter quiet

There is no one else playing a part of this poem

Monster Man
I make my way to the cemetery,
They won't look for me where I was buried.
I lay my love down to die beside me,
The ghosts they graze but demons guide me.

I look to my lord, just...

Essay 1
When a painter paints a picture
He must have a clear intent
For a snapshot just of nature
Has small chance of paying rent

So he adds some extra features
Meant to give Nature a hand
And removes what he...

Cut You Off
People showed their true colours and wonder why I got put off
People broke my heart and wonder why I'm shut off
The world on my shoulders was too heavy to just brush off
People handed me the...

All day and night long I fidget

Tableau Noir Part 2
We didn't have what they have now;
Computers, tablets, phones. 
Every day in every class, with homework we brought home.
You would think with all the aids the children do have now.
How could you fail? This I...

The Certainty
THE CERTAINTY? 

Every Sunday at 10.35, whatever the season,
The elderly couple from down the road walk by on their way to Matins.
It used to be 10.45 in their prime but, as age creeps on, it...

It's a Myth until it's Acheived

He doesn't take what he's doing seriously.
he goes in with a script: he's going to

Lost Interest
3/20/22


Maybe eventually we'll find other lifeforms
An intense sensation and feeling inside of my core
Paid for it, been quite the fight, like a war
Aware of it but much of it I ignored
Struck by five swords
Stuck in...

England Never Needs An Official Anthem
From a moon sized empire to an island
mentality never fear or frightened
punch above our weight not silenced
England will have always survived

The Empire was dominant
stretching every continent
gone now but for one constant
the British always confident

England doesn't...

It's hard to beat the old age inventions
When our bodies refuse to meet our intentions,
Those top shelf items you simply can't reach,
The ones at the bottom inaccessibly deep!

I can't squeeze the new leveraged grabber
And the...

A Knock On Your Door
I am death.
Death is my name.

I am sometimes predictable.
Yet, I am often unexpected.

I am usually feared.
Yet, I am often welcomed.

I can cause grief.
Yet, I can also bring relief.

Most people wait until I come for them.

The Skeptic
I do believe the world is flat,
I'm confident it's so.
Many adhere to the thought of a sphere,
ridiculous! I say no!

a ball, rounded and circular,

but...

Emi Lo Kan - It's My Turn
EMI LO KAN (It's My Turn)

What is "Emi lo kan"?
It is a selfish assertion,
It connotes one's right,
the selfishness that makes a man 
put himself first before his nation.
To put one's ambition and personal interest 
ahead...

Human Aquarium
A silo water casket scintillates glow 
Green sea-weed blanket, bright red and yellow.
Pebbles and gravel, in a crystalline show.
Fizzing of bubbles the aquatic-air combo.

A vista of motion, flashes a rainbow. 
A bunch of humans thrown,...
