I look deep into the tapestry of my mind, where shadows dance incessantly,
There where fear and insecurity weave imaginary stories, fluttering beneath my ribs.
None of them are real, not one, just illusory winds in the...

The "shocking" news gets all the pub,
while the worthwhile takes the back seat.

Fiery Lotus blossoms in my mind,
as I sleep the sleep of the blessed artist,
pinwheels of spinlets of gold of finest finery,
gold from the dresses of pouting princesses,
that spin and blossom in spires of artistic desire,
that...

Calcutta. 

Hot and unberable in the searing summer heat 
and unberarable for more reasons than the heat. 
In a popular tourist cafe an American widow 
obsesses on her dead husband: she has a bundle 
of...

Hold it jumping knife
Lead me now 
Off pride quality resembling stationary trains 
Under velvet willows 
xylem yields Zephaniah 
Angelic baritone can decorate 
Everything from giants hollering inspirational jargon

"Our song" obsesses, somewhere past surreal
As a wayward shadow's breeze breaks free
And light enters thoughts, overtakes “without you daze”
Where, everywhere your essence spills
Drops of breaths upon my skin as pianos begin to play

I do, but I don’t
I can, but I won’t 
I feel, but I’m numb
I’m wise, but I’m dumb

I’m here, but not really

You won’t catch me bare

An actress,...

Holding on to the world that she does...

Money and wealth
  used to accompany class

Now more often than not,
  it tends toward the crass

There used to be style
  that went along with good luck

Now nouveau riche dogma
  just passes...

With others problems would be a big exhibition
But with Hillary would be a smooth transition
Will others will have difficulties they must face
In her mind has a staff permanently in place.

Darkness surrounds me, obsesses me now.
I face the devastating power, feeling my strength draining.
I can smell the evil, as my insides roar a warning shot,
But lust for the dark has taken control.

How quickly our resolve...

Fretting and Forgetting

Are fools the only ones who are forgetting?
And if they are will they first be fretting?
Worrying when things are at their worst
Forgot songs because have not rehearsed.

What song in split second are they...

Wary the man walks alone,
Wary the woman who never stands apart,
Wary the child never says a word,
Wary the leader whose words never stop,
Wary the actor who keeps no regrets,
Wary the fool who regrets all,
Wary the...
