Earth Round
There once was a man with Trumpian crown
so heavy it caused him to frown
when he gave it away

And we've often rewound the clock
Since Nixon got the shock
When he crashed on Daley’s bloc
If today

Eighteen Years Too Late: Echoes of Regrets

Of hearts entwined beneath the sun.
It began in the halls of youth's embrace,
Where two souls met, face to face.
In the halls of Primary, their eyes did meet,
A...

Because She Still Clung To His Promises
The girl was legend
All empty eyes & purple painted smiles. Every sweet white inch of her. And everyone knew

She danced in satin skirts that only moved when she took them off. She was...

Countdown To Clone Day, Rubbish Writing
Granules of recollection rub like salt
Flailing in the fog of seven years ago
Deafened by incessant frog cries
Vines dangling began attaching to each other
Drying river stagnated, slime slippery with algae
Vigorous tree growth stooped...

The Out-Shuffling of Stars and Witches and Angels
My hand splits the deck, divides the weight
of galaxies and shadows, halves of fate.
At a drive-in, the Cutlass grows hot; glass bursts

No Clouds In Sight
Today, I was determined to fly a kite;
There was plenty of wind with no clouds in sight.
Strenuously I checked the strength of the twine;
I didn’t want any troubles fouling up my line.
The knots that...

There he was! Staggering in the corridor, in
Clean white shirt, white bow, and white trouser
All white even the shoes, except his brown leather hat
Covering his bold head with few hairs his comb never missed

I'M Hearing Voices-Rewinding Memories
It's 4am in the morning
And I just rolled out of bed
Burdened by memories, that you've brought to my dreams
That still live on, inside of my head
Now I'm searching for a pen and some paper
To help...

Breaking
Here I am again but this time it isn’t really me
I am slowly dying inside
Why doesn’t anyone see?
I am unraveling and ready to break
Unable to understand the emotions inside of me
Unsure of what causes...

No one comes close to your pace
A ghost with charm…a vanished face
Money chased becomes a stain
Crossing the line to dance in the...
