Hold me close
Stop pretending that I'm not aware of what's happening 
Anything goes
So, quit trying to be...

Every second, every minute, every single thought about you
Wonders of this still could be too good to be true
Fluttering in my heart, palpitations go amiss
I yearn for the touch of your skin, and I constantly...

What once was a peaceful delightful place 
Joyful and friendly creatures in God’s grace
A stunning morning a soulful sunrise
A village heaven has gifted a prize
The most grandiose of rainbow arches
The villagers spirited because March is

When anarchy consumes a barren soul,
the hatred overwhelms the beating heart.
It sickens minds and steals the body whole  
then rips the cloth of empathy apart.
Existence lies between what evil craves
and what your world may...

This could be a victim of predator-like paradise in disguise of a nightmare...you're greater than you think...I give you more credit than what you for yourself - think that through, why don't you?
Elegantly, shedding tears...

The outside world sickens you, suffocates you to dissolution under your skin,
Home seems too far, the universe too thin, reality - a heavy burden,
You implore other shells to cover your body, loose clothes, shining chains,
Silent...

Darkness hangs heavily over my eyes
And you listen to the neurosis in my head
Like most misery it started with apparent happiness
Now I seem too volatile & strong willed.
It's frustrating how desire can transform into disaster

Can I lend my brains for a day, year and minute only?
My heart only left to see if poetry will exist

Yet poetry is taunting me, trying to reconcile with my past
My step father’s abusive days,
Days...

Toxic, intoxicating solitude,
With a tantalizing proclivity 
To slither inch by inch, or suddenly,
Back into suffocating loneliness

When will I again see my own person
Reflected back at me from the abyss?
There is a thrill in the uncertainty...

Almost immediately, we were surrounded by a mass of blacken sea
And I held onto Alkaiya, surrendering to fate for our death to be
A moment pass, a time seemingly misplaced by the hands of God
And in...

I’m glad my eyelids are silent so you cant hear me watching you. Nights like this are so dark and quiet, you’d think you could hear a tear drop.  Obviously not.  You must...

Life has consumed me.
I am a harsh bitter shell of the hero I used to be.
An innocent boy full of love now flourished into a savage ripping, thrashing, selfish monster.

Yes, its true I am a...

A Witch must confirm the Powers in her possession
Before performing an anticipated condemnation
The guilty Judge, rendered immobile and speechless
Wets himself, cowering, trussed and helpless
As the Witch intones the Powers’ sacred Creed
That she has sworn to...

Faith is a warm, hooded coat whose
Furry softness provides a barrier 
From the icy blasts of cold-hearted people
Who are jealous of the embrace a well-constructed winter garment provides for its wearer, me.

Love bids me open...

on the news last
night we were 
informed, 

twin three month
baby boys murdered 
lost their lives, 

violently murdered,
violently abused 
violently tortured,
violently
traumatized, 

violently,
violently, violence
sucked them 
from their lives, 

this violence
sickens us, these
violent 
acts, 

this merciless
killing, these
defenseless

Animal cruelty is an ongoing and sickening epidemic. I'll never understand how thoughts can 
creep into a human being's mind that would make them want to harm a defenseless pet. I 
wrote this poem after...

The Crushed Skulls

the crushed skulls

and the 

torn-off legs

and the 

single shots piercing countless heads


women, men, children
young, old, everyone just a human being

when will we tire of the senseless killing which we keep on impotently seeing


the...

Oh, precious little creature, mine,
The joy you suffuse my life with is immeasurable!
I pray I convey to you in affection
And inclusion in all my comings-and-goings,

Just how dear you are to this human fool,
For I love...

It is disgusting that 734 people died at Mecca,
Last Thursday, when so many lives were lost,
Needlessly, for want of crowd control officials,
To restrain the 1.4 million who’s emotions cost.

Religion is never an objective thing, 
It's...

I can no longer hear the voices, 
so now I'm not sure what to say. 
I've come to the conclusion 
that they would know a better way to tell this story.
At least if I could...

Go ahead, try to separate the races.
You politicians have egg, on your malicious faces.

Not realizing in your frozen hearts.
You toss imperfect, very hopeless darts.

Neither money nor educatiion
Can separate friends of the American nation.

In all these triumphs and human attainments 
To overcome these realities of material boundaries and confinements 
Do we simply fill our lives with possessions and possessive capitalist greed
Is it just ego and the fear of...

I got the message
Long before we knew
There was little chance
Of us meeting at all
When I first saw you
By zephyr via zest
As I tried to keep composure
I heard you say
Without a sound
"It was an accident"
And I...

Nature to its fullest
Is where all beauty lies
For flowers bloom and animals dance.
and I'm sure no one would say other wise.

I am one with nature
I will not lie 
I hunt with the wolves
And sing with...
