A View From a Window
As dawn unfolds today beyond my fractured windowpane,
a breeze beguiles the ashen drapes. Like snakes they slip aside,
revealing wanton worlds that race and run aground, insane,
immersed in scenes obscene that savants strive to mask and...

She Had a Dream Ii
Taking a nap became super busy and hot
What could become of the dream she got?
Keeps coming back to hunting eyes' jot
Viewing afar her possible lot
Maybe or not would be as plot
Or probably weird off frank...

WELCOME HOME:
CHORUS:
Frozen on a mountain high,
Searching for moment so right.
How would I have known, baby you nigh.
You coming home, you coming home,
You coming home!
You coming home, you coming home,
You coming home!
Spreading your love wings...

The Devil Also Pray
In all your doings, acknowledge your weakness.
For all to count, subscribe to His power.
Forget the current situations' bleakness,
For favour shall outpour breakthrough's miraculous shower.
Prayer is the key,
To open spiritual doors,...

Eve of the Faery Clock, Snippet of Canto I
Influenced by "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and "The Rape of the Lock," my goal is to write this completely in iambic meter with (mostly?) rhyming couplets. (Though the intro's meter varies, the main...

Rollercoaster
The swings you go through with a child
Are not unlike a coaster wild.
The terror, stark, when they arrive:
“How do I keep this kid alive?”
“What idiot allowed discharge,
And placed with me a care so large?”
When you...

Welcome To Murkland
Beneath the River Somnium,
Abandoned Wishes hymn: quiet in the viaduct:
Reverse the Lodestone;
Reverse the First Sin;
Reverse the Autumn Hearse;
Reverse the Universe.
We are the murk men, intangible ends—inebriated together
With Beelzebub our friend. Absolvent now in burning skin,...

The Report
The window lets in an odd solitary ray of light,
Of timid color, a cusp between twilight and night.
It lands hesitatingly on the golden tip of my pen,
and then blasts into the iris of my eye,...

Wynorrific Eve
Upon the rustic walls,
Laid a shadow, shadow too dry.
In the trees beyond, laid the carnelian of fall;
And I stroll away, into the vestige foliage ply.
In my little cabin,
many boring days had flown by,
but it was...

The Luv'sic' Waste of D Henry Allwein, Part Ii
II. Paralysis U[sic]
Shy one, shy one,
Shy one of my heart,
She moves in the firelight
Pensively apart;
Linger now with me, thou Beauty,
On the sharp archaic shore.
Surely 'tis a wastrel's duty
And the gods could ask no more.
If thou...

Dramatic Monologue
Bat and Gat: Danger In the Meadow
A Nubian goat they called Split
Was rehabbing her front leg a bit.
She was having a blast,
And the time flew by fast,
But she wasn’t quite ready to quit.
She suddenly realized she’d dozed;
It was later than she...

Shadows
'Tween the shades of gloam and night
roam shadows cold and deep
Cavorting along the garden walls
'neath the eves they do seep
Pulling life from which they touch
removing the essecense of being
Growing bolder and darker still
when clouds course...

You Are My Home

I live in the mere pith of changes'...

The Harshest Trick
I strolled beneath a barren wood,
feeling maligned, misunderstood.
Late night attempts at cloning sheep
bore little else but lack of sleep.
My research grant had been denied,
so I, exhausted, bleary-eyed,
set out on foot to clear the mind,
to leave...

Our Love in July
Lethal kind heart, your fingernails like morganite daggers
sharp enough to stab my heart from the hearth that you warm
As long as you still light it, my breathing bellows will stoke
your flame, which came from a...

The Beach
It's been way too long since my last lay
With a blue skirt girl on the westward bay
I couldn't delay my sport and had to pay
For the tinkers under the sun's last ray.
Her hands were crafty...

Death's Door
I was born through that bloody door
Through my mother’s womb, I saw the gloam
I was once two, expelled as one
I’m now on the flip side of the portal
Into life, the door closed behind me
