Son Say Goodnight To Grandpa
“Son”...”say goodnight to grandpa”
Spurred by mother dearest
as well as other politesse
drummed into her second born
fobbing blandishments as incentive
tumbled off fingers of prodigal son
tripped wordsmith to splutter forth
forthwith the following lines.
Back in the day

Heart
"Heart"
Deep fissures formed
in the cracks of
the nowhere place
where time leeched
bleeding claret
through the green
veined blues
protean bit by bit
the flesh disappears
prematurely 6ft under
mulch for rebirth
the subcontinent
conscientious conscience
inward reaching
the divine central tableau...

The Curse of Black Beard
Down deep beneath fathoms icy keep, where deadmen’s
Scream in utter silences aquatic hell, amongst the devils
Graveyard of wreckage's carnage, there exists a ghostly harbor
Of phantom ships!
Anchored are the souls of the undead, and vessels craft...

Ode To Hope and Despair
Reminiscent of Dante’s Inferno,
In gloom cries today’s time: O there’s no scope
For whoso lives, abandon all the hope.
Maybe he’d reasons enough to think so.

I Held Marys Hand

Gone now are the shrieks as his crown was pegged into...

The Cost of War Through Peace
"The Cost of War through Peace"
She had spent
some elaborate
time
with snakes,
learning
their ways,
yet in the very
back of her mind,
in her memories,
she remembered
the stories told
long ago,
the sleepy songs sung;
curiously,
they were always
delivered in the dark,
as...

Joey Alexander-More Than a Boy Genius

Phoolish Phantom

Multiple relationships past the
Joy of all that we shared and were,

He said as he approached her with stride.
His familiarity caught her with surprise;
And she disliked what his eagerness implied.
Aren't you someone important;
She looked down towards her feet.
