Premium Member The Battle of Britain I
As aspiration seeks to take its toll,
your mass flotilla salvaged sons of war.
‘Twas but a feat the angels will extol
though Satan’s army rallies at your door.
Your youthful fit have vowed to serve the Crown.
They muster...

Premium Member Poland III
For soon the rains of destiny will fall
as innocence capitulates its soul.
Aggression sealed your fears within a wall
to let disease and hunger take their toll.
Your rank-and-file dissolved into the night
with nary whisper echoing their names,
‘tis...

The Lady On the Train
Don't ask the lady on the train,
of where she plans to go,
for where did her land turn into to sand,
you and I will never know.
Where flies the bird unknowingly,
with voices in our heart,
the moment dies...

Oh, majestic city, where time cradles its wings,
In a moment of the world, where the dream of star cascades is a timid seed,
I wander, a phantom of grace, beneath the moon's silver imprint,
Meandering through alleys...

Split Second Glance
I smile at you when you aren’t looking.

The set of your mouth, as it furrows irresistibly

Commandeering your face into the desired degree

Of aloof concentration. Chin in hands, you rove about

A world I catch only in...

Poetry isn’t dead yet
Poetry is almost on the exit tense
We forgotten how poetry should make one feel or brush the emotions to sleep or facing  our fears by using words only

The words we use now are mostly misused...

Eyes of the soul
The eyes I have do not amount to the things I see. 
Amidst the blinding lights, I suffer from the intensity of existing. 
My eyes are merely a tool to complete my appearance. 
I see...

Holier Than Thou
Demon possession is seen through spiritual eyes
The clarity of it so transparent you see it with your eyes closed
To be told you have them is like a dreaded disease
The mere knowledge of it transforms you

The golden sun setting in splendor,
draws a long shadow out of me to silently show
it veils the joy, petrifies the ecstasy, I got in full
from many facets of my life so delightful. 
The living marveled...

And the Wind Cries
The wind howls throughout the night smashing its power into my night, I hear the 
force burst into my mind, such on line with love a UN controllable force.

It howls its might, petrifies my night...

All this anger in me like poison has intoxicated me,
My dream are saturated with vicious visions of your blood in...

Forgetting Him
It still petrifies me,

But it must be done..
So i hold on courageously,
And march along..
But to forget,

Premium Member The Jester Has Disappeared
Pacing the walkway of life with the maddening crowd,
out of sync the rhythm turns chaotic, makes me a clown.
A lonely futile walk on the sagging rope,
balancing the aching legs, the toil unseen.

In the Attic of My Mind
The fact that you despise me,
Despite only having seen my good side,
Petrifies and destroys me,
Whenever I catch myself thinking about the things we’ve seen.

Polished against haphazard,
Me against you,
A lonely heart wanting to give all,
Belligerent in...

The dance commences, I retreat a step
Shattered from archaic engulfing patterns

You cha cha your storm forward in
Swirls of ancient abandonment and as

I skip back another, gasping for sufficient safety from suffocation,
You unfurl your blitz clawing...

There is something strange
There is something peculiar
About this five letter word
This word can make one quiver

Five letters that makes you shiver
It's one word that sends chills down your spine
It terrifies, it petrifies, it creates fear

I Resist
Even a microscopic virus petrifies me.
I resist this latest design of death
with mask and sanitizer. 

I withstand the horny words 
that gore me.

The waves of temptation pass through my veins:
I resist them like an elephant...

All the things that tear me apart
And drove me completely insane
They are the echoes of my heart

Life stabbed me with a poisonous dart
And that caused me to gain
All the things that tear me apart

Her calamitous cries crept to champion the country,
Her progenies cheers to cause pain for the plain,
And the the peaceful people lead to spray the peace like...

Once the Domain of Birds
Beetles, most likely, felled the giant.
A gruesome deterioration,
of a quiet magnitude,
ravaged inward.
Until, in the cold night,
root structure surrendered
from hardened ground,
to a misery of horizontal dust.
And where once the domain of birds,
was glorified above,
now gives shelter...

I need to live in a happy home,
‘Though I might seem hard and cold,
