The Mask of Tourmaline

Twice the night had fallen upon a sleepless slumber,
Yet again awoken by winter when the third was three in number.

I sense that a silence doth sneak ‘tween cracks of weathered wood,
Conniving with that which shadows...

Once the night had fallen upon a sleepless slumber,
Whence the winter woke me when the third was three in number.

The Mask of Labradorite

Thrice the night—the day!—both fell to sleepless slumber,
But now in Spring, though yet again: The third was three in number.

Instead to beg for booked...

Original Mask of Alabaster

A wince doth lurk wearing which wicked gaze,
Of conniving cast shadows ‘tween my windowpanes.

Gazing through the window’s diaphanous gelid glass, 
I see a flushing fluorescent misty haze of frothy brass.

It floats aloft the frost of...

The Mask of Black Spinel

Frice the week along with night had fallen to sleepless slumber,
Trapped again 'tween times when thirds are three in number.

I sense a grimace gurgle in these halls of boned wall,
The aching whims and shaking limbs:...

With Wasted Time On Decks Dark

And forests now instead are skylines then,
At gatherings held to contemplate who
No longer walks amongst more lively men;
Where angels thought would be seen high above
Welcoming spirits with cause to...

Awkwardness

carving their names on the world’s flesh like scars,
they won’t waste their breath on the news of dead men.
if there are things humans should learn, it is how to
leave their emotions out of the equations...

Deal With Appeal

Deal With Appeal

Already did have much appeal
Trying to come up with a deal;
After all bugs were worked out,

Wraith, Geist, or Wrath of the Failure

Seems my handwriting will never improve,
Yearlong efforts, letters still oblong.
Not quite right, but we pretend it’s not all bad,

One Day Before Father's Day

ONE DAY BEFORE FATHER’S DAY

I stopped by the park today
Pondering
One day before father’s day.

In the deep corner of my mind
My father’s memory opens up.

In a third world country
Where the farms, the...

who did not absorb the taste of distant fruits

Burning: a Dream In Madness

Burning snow falls quietly on
cold rusted wire and brittle bone.
An ancient creature looks to the horizon 
feeling is body built of razor wire and old bones, cold,
a delicate tone transmits from on far...
