Run through
the
poisoned
black smoke,
that
permeates
through
Watts -
Run pass
the
looting,
Run down
the
land mine
streets,
Run pass
the house
that's
no longer
your home -

Desolations Midnight Snow
It falls softly as it tumbles...
Down from the sky darkly...
Deep in the heart of midnight.
Not a deity stirs at this moment out of time.
As young eyes stare into the void of an empty room.
Something...

Tonight We Dance
She raised her glass
to a space of fragrance
gifts of perfumers and chefs
bees for our banquet.
"Tonight we dance."
Her glass rose
and so did theirs.
"Outside this stained window

when I have this long surrendered and concluded with everything in me, that I would love...

Happy Thanksgiving
It was the night before Thanksgiving, had
trouble sleeping, counting sheep don’t work…
Kept thinking of the leftovers that we would have,
knowing that they would be calling my name before long…
With no will power to...

Suddenly Life Was a Headache
Once life was fun, back when I was young.
Always on the go, and depression I did not know.
Then came the challenge of raising my kids,
trying to understand the weird things they did.
Then came divorce,...

Rollercoaster
I never liked heights, so I guess that's why I get scared every time emotions are running high
Emotions running fast and I'm not one to encourage exercise, but I want to be healthy
But my health...

They Become Giant Puppies
It is snowing! It is snowing! It is SNOWING!
My children turn into giant puppies.
They run outside and catch flakes on their tongues.
They roll around making snow angels without coats.
Their cheeks are pink with cold in...

The Issue About Tissues
Isn't it funny how people panic
Over the trivial, the mundane?

About which we could complain.

No one is certain to die
Without people pilling up
Tons of toilet rolls so high!
It's...

End Times
The world is full of fake friends nothing is real,
Everyday the innocent in jail are denied appeal,
All these humans love doing is to corrupt 'n' steal,
Extolling virtues of veganism with missionary zeal,
Day in day out...

Awakening
“What is this strange place we find ourselves in
Trapped in the open, we are free within”
----------
Trapped out in the open
By hope beyond hoping,
Desperately groping
Down passages sloping:
We've been here before.
We're faintly perceiving,
Our senses deceiving,
Till monsters,...

The Imagine Sphere
_______________________
Everything falls down here
and the dark and dire sphere
going round and round
making that deadly sound

Something missing in my heart
So confused I may utter in a blurt
the dark sphere quivering my soul
Making itself surround and...
