A journeyman once spelunked in a cavern beneath a marsh,
Whose oily layers of algae and water made his mission harsh.

For the cavern's entrance stood in the middle of the massive swamp
Full of gators with sawtooth...

A student hunched over a Macbook Pro gone mad with overachievement, 
Typed away at a fifty-page essay with aid from sleep's bereavement. 

As his fingers stroked the keypad's letters with pace and fine finesse,
The clock...

She whom I love; 
Any of the apologies and explanations of most bittersweet love:
An accounting of those regrets and remorses that I have, 
My fooleries and follies and fallacies, fair...

Gradually reaching the end- by business suits and their passion for currency--
Look around and observe this earth- Sounds, water, trees,...

Too much viewing without a care
Would see my eyes shapen to...

Channeling expanding my plans of life with you;

And in each measure of time that...

Earth life struggle, soul choice made by free will
Facing turbid winds, inhospitable 
Challenges shapen us, upon the anvil
Until love enabled, consciousness stable

With clear light veiled, in this form we stumble 
Weary from suffering, that makes...

Behold, dear reader, a bit about a boy and his battle,
He fought for his family, his friends and all of Earth's cattle,
His world was straddled by what rattled atop some saddle,
Bound all beneath to bare...

My heart covered slush
 I was naked before Him 
And in all my making in this

Oh! please, please, hear me, listen
See me, shackled to the dirt
Won't you loose these chains, that bind me
To a life, of pain and hurt
Sing me sweetly, to my slumber
In the darkness of the night
As my...

Ashes

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust…
How many times have we heard this?
on TV, in a play, in a movie… 
Have you ever read it in the bible? 
The very book of life!
He that made all...

I look at you and my eyes smile
Your plumb lips suckulant crisp

Again lips shapen like two strawberrys
Your mind intellect none comes second best

Disturbing the reflection of brooding storm clouds
Above. The pond sits close to the top of the ridge;
Precisely round, there are no streams entering or

Tremendous anxiety is shading her days
Because the past she's lived has shapen her ways
Both good and bad as she's up and down.
She smiles so brightly only later to frown.

She knows yet is confused and right,...

The dark very deep
Many are afraid of it
Few find the courage 
To navigate through it
Many were lost in it
Some died from the fear of it.

Some name it evil and more
The suffering and pains 
Shame, hate...

Weather washed planks neatly shapen
Sandy road leads into dark interior dampen

Let them dance inside see what happens 
Inside your braced solid...

Spilled with blood of sons and daughters..
Now take it in your hand
Hold it gently in the sunlight
It will shapen at...
