Dear Euphoria,

Idols
When your idols are fragile
Is it any wonder kids lack style
Perhaps if we walked a mile
In the shoes of the soldier we'd attain guile
Look at the newspaper
The government is a caper
And everything will taper
Due to...

Seahorses
We humans like all creatures to have a purpose, an aim,
From one-celled amoebas to fungi-spore glebas,
They need a good reason to compete in life's game.
Consider cats: They school us in hygiene
Licking their paws and their...

Leaving your siblings and family in sorrow
But here am i now, paying my last respect to you
Eleven years we haven't seen each other

I'm just writing my story
Leaving out all the glory
I never tore them; yet the pages and spine are all but broken
Its letters are scattered, yet still the words form a concise omen
Would you read it...

The girl shouted for joy in the middle of the velvet full moon.
The little dog barked twice interrupting the high-handed act of argument.
How many words will describe the perfect purification as we proceed to knavery?

Media Slime
A bug trapped in amber.
Fossil flowers in a stone.
Sabre tooth caught in tar.
Iceman asleep in a glacier.
Nature doesn't care!
Nature makes no judgements,
cares not who you are,
drops you in your tracks!
If by...

Pondering a Winter Dusk
I ride the bus...
Tilt a bit, balance-
ponder later. Yolk yellow
and sky blue, chalk
grey paint. Steel
rectangles; winding parallel
lines. Circles- Eternal.
Toothed horizons-
golden rose shaped sunset
tauten, its nectar
steeps; blushes. Inks gnarled
columns of trees, dusky, their
limbs...

Weaver's Gate
Not till the loom was silent
And the shuttle ceased to fly
When history unrolled the scroll
And reveals the reason why.
The darkest thread as needful
In the weavers skilful hand
As the cloth of gold and silver
Of an industrious...

Dancing In the Celestial Glade
Dancing in the shade
Of the celestial glade
We're moonlit pioneers
Who overcame our fears
Bravery not knavery
In a cosmic soup so savory
Beauty is in crystalline flowers
And monolithic towers
Remove inhibition and take a tour
And enjoy the universe's greatest score
And...

Solicitude
Remember the frigid december,
coldness, draught and damp.
She waited until september,
that tawdry promiscuous tramp.
Gone by day and on display,
street corners, pimps and thugs.
Burning ashes in a cigarette tray,
and abusing all sorts of drugs.
On the fill...

Keep Your Word
Although the endless aridities of mortal survival
Are wont to twist the very best in every man,
Honest be against the knavery of those around,
And always keep your word because you can.
It sounds smart to preach the...

February 2015
I feel,
Most hate and wrong, in the world
Can be traced indirectly to money;
Or the lack thereof;
But where does sorrow start?
Cornered within my mind
Are matters undiscovered, I query why?
Possibly,...

King of Clubs
What might have brightened sober days
Is now a poison clearly seen
Within the labyrinthine ways
Of hearts and their fugacious queen.
The king of clubs once owned my dreams
And all the diamonds in the crown,
But then...

How Passionless My Heart
Sorry for the many times I have loved you.
For the endless nights my images leech,
And dote upon your memory.
Had not it that your peace drives my last nerve to insanity, -
Need I mention...

The Rabbit and the Fox
I had a little bunny fair
Who loved no one but me.
I hardly thought a fox would dare
To do such knavery.
I built my pet a darling hutch,
To save him from all harm,
Not knowing that a sly...
