Roses of colors not experienced on this planet, because these...

Bayonet's pointed, their hand at the steady
The town folk feared what was at hand

Hooted and cried to warn of dangers,
Lurking in the mangrove,

The heart is lifeless and tears have dried,
My feet are shrinking...

When I was just a little boy
we picnicked under alpine skies,
one time a mule deer strolled out

“The finest buck I’ve ever seen,”
were...

Battling the instabilities of reality.
Behind daylight's closed doors.
Imaginary chains keep me captive.

White walls decorated with 
silhouettes of suppressed shadows -
disappear, upon the sight of twilight.

Alone, my eyes search for companionship.

Then she appears, smiling down at...

Derek runs 26 mile marathons,
With his nerve-damaged right arm
Anchored in a sling: solid sounds, 
‘Cos a truck did cause him harm.

When her lantern lights and laughs

Many love the life under the moon;
endless intoxicating laughs-consuming the witching hours
TV marathons upon enticing...

Lots of swing bridges to cross,

Those who pray by marching
can pray alone
in endless competitions.

Those who pray while dancing
can only pray together
for timeless cooperations.

Hate and fear can only angry march
side by competing side
in uniformity of lock-step supremacy.

Not everyone is nice and kind
But everyone will get hurt sometimes

Occasionally, someone will cross the line
Some will even become insensitive at times
But we all have mountains that we must climb
