Vanity's Vanishing Act Or Pickles Everywhere
As I approach the staunch realization that we are the poisonous creatures
Plaguing the very mother that nurtures our brittle and deplorable existence
We cross our arms seeking the unexplained comfort we think we know
Leaning back in...

When the Lights Get Low
When the light turns to darkness.
Make sure you are by my side.
I see the demons lurking in my peripherals, 
so I run and hide.
Still often I wonder about Heaven and Hell, 
essentially we're all clueless.

Snakes and Such
I dont think its easy to grasp the concept of depression. 
This is probably because it is not concrete, anchored, bound to one definition.
It pools around you ten feet tall before it enters your peripherals.
Completely...

Virgins In Attica
The soul is dead in passing 
The spirit lost its belonging 
Running out of Ancestors peripherals
Last breath of thee, a gasp 

Trees are throwing out branches 
Thinking of a single brain 
Diamond things hard to...

A fast sweep of skin, glistens by my peripherals
My head turns to follow the movement of my eyes;

What -Explicit Language-
Together tethered to existence
we act upon our soul‘s insistence
to dare and dream to find…? What exactly?

**** the morning;
I sigh as I step into the shower.
Soon to be discarded dreams tug at my sub-conscious.
Another broken plot-line...

Premium Member Religion Or Spirituality
The Master taught the ancients,
the brilliant art of making fire;
Losing the art in imprudence,
they also forgot the Master.

Beliefs, doctrines, rites, rituals,
Have, no doubt, elements holy;
Deeper than these peripherals,
- Is true Spirituality…

Signs, symbols, worships, and scriptures,

Built and Broken
Once a thriving house.
Tall jade grass flowing in the worlds breathing,
Our passion and love shining through a diamond toughened, crystal clear window.
Through the storms and ravaging disasters it stood.
Unnoticed went each piece that tore off,
Each...

Within My Circle
As I flash through the books and screens,
The plots take me to new terrains.
I experience a world beyond the reality,
where every image might as well be a fantasy.

I see visuals within my peripherals.
Can it be...

Finally I've made it to paradise, surrounded by the sea
Tranquil blues in shadow, are what it's peripherals be

White buildings reflect the sun, an image I'll never forget
To watch our sun disappear, the most beautiful of...

As a blood-red sun bleeds in the sky,
white cottony clouds absorb scarlet.
And a seductive silvery Moon;
bares Her skimpy slip like a harlot.

Jack-o'-lanterns decorate porches;
grim gargoyles guarding All Hallows' Eve.
And costumed children go door to door;
begging...

It made me twist and turn in bed
My mind could well from a million alts choose: 
Marvel at beauty of that moonless sky, 
Re-live that meandering slow boat cruise, 
Recall fragrance from her love wafting by, 
Re-enjoy bluebell blossoms of late springs,...

Throwing listening ears to no ones gain
Innocence of all now bearing the same pain

Premium Member Peripheral Feelings
Caught up in life, in our peripheral we
Doors we enter, but do we actually see
Or does life's light, simply blind
A trait of us, human kind

These windows that attract
That can lure us eventually through
Is this luring...

The night takes you
Louder and louder - becoming inaudible 
Neck

Stick it out long

Images distilled, frozen and framed 
Drinks flying 
Clothes torn and lost 

Crowds getting bigger 
Wanting the floor and this spotlight 
It's...

Spore-Eater
To gain insight about the world around, 
I will eat the spores which sprout from the ground.
These fragments of feeling are so fleeting,
Which make up my entire being.
Knowledge or solace will surely be found.

Ice
What does grief feel like?
The world comes to an uncomfortable silence
nothing feels real
it's like a mask placed over your head-
a mind game
one you can't break out of
it's the lonely gazes
hoping to see you in my...

Tunnel Vision
Running along the sand,
Footsteps trip
Hands sunk, face plant-
Can you see the cacti?
Wind howls, and grabs me by the waist-
Throwing me against the grains-
Lips cracked, I can taste blood-
Or maybe it’s salt- 
I’m losing this battle...
