Dramatic Dreams Dare Dingos

Malnourishment is the song from the pans whose empty hold could offer no more products to be boiled and whirled. They were quite sad having been bought then hung. Hung. Sparkly signalling stale sales. Stale...

I look deep into the tapestry of my mind, where shadows dance incessantly

I look deep into the tapestry of my mind, where shadows dance incessantly,
There where fear and insecurity weave imaginary stories, fluttering beneath my ribs.
None of them are real, not one, just illusory winds in the...

Coming Home

I remember the night I first tasted sweet love.
Joining a boy for that magical, first time,
Under the glimmer of our own, fat moon,
Next to a silvery lake, sampling the divine.

We explored and shared the ultimate...

Rugged

I am going to write a funny poem
Why does life have tomorrow?
Because if it doesn't 
Wouldn't you have it today?
Far near
How far is far
And how near is near?
Close enough to me
You are too close
What do...

Silent Cacophony

To finish her work and to honour my love
who now dwells forever in heaven above
It’s something that I am committed to do
to bring her invention to each one of you

She worked for a doctorate and...

Apartment of Addiction

There seems to be silence within the serene night,
 yet those indoors have eternal cries of unspoken fright.
One man drowns in chocolate, shamefully eying his hips,
as the woman next door kisses the hundredth man’s lips....

Lost Treasure

Within our minds we strive to achieve
We are taught to go for the gold
So we focus and we practice 
We even cut people from our lives as a sacrifice

Then we justify those sacrifices by convincing...

Earth and Sky

[Verse 1]

I grew my farm roots beneath your starry-eyed loam
In soils of silence where dreams slip by, lost and unknown
But you were the willowing wind pulling you far away
Took to the stars as if you...

Forever and Always

Autumn foliage clings to the earth as another spring lays dying.
She walks there among the rustle of my thoughts. The ever-present 
sound of her steps upsetting nature in its serenity only long
enough to remind that...

Nina

Good morning Steph, today's the twentieth.
It's Syd's birthday and I've been thinking of you.
I bought her a cake yesterday, chocolate and vanilla swirled.
I thought of calling your mom,
but she always disappears this time of year.

Like most I suffer from heartbreak
It don't however affect just my heart
It makes my whole body ache
Ache and longing to hold him holding me
Ache and longing from this misery to be free

How I See My Siblings

How I see my Siblings

Nine faces born of the same seed,
Each with their own want and need.
Yet through these lines I seek to know
Which roots have helped me grow.

Eldest Brother

I am watching 3 inches off of the floor,
The man outside waits at my door
I know the screams from within the box 
Howl and call upon your order upon the rocks
But I know you can...

This Guy

You look at me
and say 
can't you see 
you're living like a hypocrite
you're living a life 
that just doesn't fit  
when will "you guys" 
ever get it
you go around 
trying to proclaim 
my life...

Gallant Comrade

She stands gallant 
For us: the staged pens 
Of growing knowledge
For the posted battle field
By honor to get hired 

She stands gallant
In lonely and scary dens
Tightly by duties pledge
For our efforts to yield
And live likewise...

Digital Regret

Digital Regret

Smoke filled the room as dark shadows play,  
A man sat lost, day after day,  
With a mouse gripped tight in hand,  
In a pixelated world, hes made his stand. ...

Matching His Music

The beat of my heart
Matching the music

Fast as can be

Like horses stampeding 
Down a race track

But louder
I'm surprised he can't
Hear it

Because I feel like it's
louder then a cannon

And with him there
Right in front of me

His...

His synthetic skin made of wax, glass, and fibrous mass has more than an eternity brushed abrasively against my own....

Avalanche

Avalanche

The thunderous force of love, unsuspecting and sudden,
Ripped through me with the force of an avalanche.
Sending me reeling and buried in its icy aftermath.
Pinned to the ground with labored breath,
The weight of the world pressing...

Glimpses

GLIMPSES


The newness is precious, even perfect, as the touch is smooth.
Unravaged yet by time, supple, yet genuinely awkward. 
Eagerly grasping, wanting, playing too, yet always learning.
Learning, that pain is sometimes a part of the growing,...
