If I could scream truth
from the mountain tops,
and whisper false pretenses,
Then by the breath of a ghost
I would confess that I am content,
But by the yawp of a barbarian,
I would raise my voice to the...

sitting in the waiting room
during the designated “visiting hours”
means nothing to the loved one in 
turmoil---

I’ll stay away…
          from what brings pain

When all is said and done,
And the piper is paid
What a relief it will be

On a hot and windless night
I lay in bed quietly with a bit sad
Looking back on the journey 
A shadow appears bashfully on the catwalk 
As shy as debtors for a grace time hide

Minefield
I wish I could navigate the minefield of my mind
Its corners dark and undefined. 
One step too far, it all explodes

But you cannot escape your self-torture
