Conceits
"Conceits"
Such conceits
as veils between
our windowed worlds
torn torrential incomplete
mayst thou watch and learn
the one I spawned,
strength beats weakness
carried soft and harsh
one direction or the other
strength and weakness
both carried soft and harsh
ego and...

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 11
In a sudden nodding shift,
I was lifted into the air by the hard wings of the Devil
His putrid stench waking me from what seemed all dream
And upon a balcony of singed vine and blackened soot,
He...

Me and Me First
That soft-spoken Sovereign commands a big stick,
runs the world into ruins, once our bailiwick.
If asked why, He grins grimly, pale lips slightly pursed:
"Vindication? Straightforward: It's Me and Me First"
(To mesmerise people He needed...

Hermit Kingdom
They sit on their own
in their Hermit Kingdom
other side of the wall
singing their song
entitled
nothing to envy
peeling the skin
away in generations
it's worse than a famine
where colour
is wrung
from the inside out
emotive...

Viral
"Viral"
overlords for the good

Snow White
war addicted
kissed while sleeping
shadows speak
a good talk
viral wars rehearsed
it’s all in our system now
compromised
inside out

Ambushed
I had always adored purple lilacs, and never could get enough,
As wildflowers bloom abundantly, although times may get rough.
They had graced a backyard garden, that I'd known in childhood,
On a tree lined street of birdsong,...

Who Remember the Good Ole Days
Only the Real OG's will remember.
All of these old movies are from back in the day.
Some of you will remember and some of you won't have a clue of what I am talking about.

Prayers for this New Year, 2024
I pray for the empathy,
Compassion and understanding,
To give someone besides just me,
Music of light and laughter,
Notes of joy and peace,
A sense of assurance that love,
Yes, love can overcome anything!
I pray for the silence,
Still as the...

Antichristic Bound
ANTICHRISTIC BOUND:
So many questions spilled,
Because of how this place feels.
Seemly blame who for such beal,
And what's the rationale for thus built?
It's spiritually a proposed deal,
So not assumed to cause strong thrills.
But is it right,...

Where Do They Go
This poem was inspired by the photograph titled, 'Running Legs,' by Lisette Model.
I was an experienced hiker, who had rambled down many famous trails,
Like earth's charming, 365 day tales, of its seasonal, sightseeing avails.
I'd trekked...

Holographic Pieces Make Depressions Hole
Holographic
Pieces make
Up, what become pieces of ourselves,
that run in circles, like little elves,
playing with bits and pieces of others
as we incorporate parts- be they brothers
our sisters, our fathers our mothers
aunts and uncles - that in...

Encrypted Mind of Skippy 4
Search paths to be everlast,
Act fast as you reach your final math,
Equation equals the lost chance,
To hold the happiness stance,
From a distance you can only glance,
Securities reach it's breech,
As followers continue to leech,
Don't speak to...

Much Ado About Nothing
Much “ADO” about nothing.
When I was a small child, a phrase I oft heard spoke
Generally just teasing, simply meant as a joke.
They might say of a person “That guys a “nit-wit”
Some might contend the...

Zooming out, I take it all in- the big picture
Is this what you thought it’d look like from the outside after everything was said and done?
A flawed image of our wasted youth
I pan in; seeing...

Unfinished Story
The heavens brush by her fingertips
as she reaches for the sky
but her feet stay nailed to the ground
when she stretches past those pearly gates
catching a shooting star in one hand
while grabbing Orion’s belt with her...

Garden
there is a body in your garden
exposed bones
exposed blood
exposed heart
laid bare
the walls of your garden
watch the body with unease
The windows of your house
open onto your garden
and you watch, too, the body with unease

Tough
Tough
Your back is brittle, like time-greyed oak,
Curved like a bow,
The string constantly tight and ready.
The glare from your eyes:
Like cold steel.
The things that you do,
Always securely perfect and correct.
Your voice strained
Like a...

Nothing More Or Less
Millions of lives and souls untold
And to account it all
Words, lines, films
Imagination trims
A sliver of soft, scarlet ribbon
Hollywood rounds
Quills deliver
Writers flare with passion so strong
Filling minds with fantasies, reveries, histories
Tragedies
We consume it all like freshly...
