Day 1:
Indistinguishable from the next
Yet placed in a pocket
Decisions made to be kept
Yet I feel I give nothing
For I am a stone after all
It's my life's work
To ponder my worth 
So tiring I mostly sit...

You Know Nothing About
Dark origin behind the dawn of life
Dumb souls laugh far-off stream
A chip heavy on shoulders
Crash with thunder storm
Generous thoughts from heaven
Fall like cold dew in a pail
Walk with a profound heart miles and miles away
Thoughts...

Overwhelming Vision
I have questions...
questions I seem to have stored in a jar
a collection seen as emptiness from afar
to these arcane corridors of secrets life has assured
My voice may be murmurous at best
lacking the presence of someone...

Skin Deep
I stare blankly ahead of me;
stare into the cracked soul of the being who used to reflect a smile
- the girl I used to love unconditionally.
That love evades me now.

Where has it gone?

I search desperately,...

Inspiration the Who Reign Over Me
I am doing the right thing
Don't change don't stray - away
Maintain
Vigilance is awarded through patience waiting brings blessings n gifts
So must layer up and have my heart a stones throw from brick
Much easier said then...

Somewhere In Cygnus
Did I tell you I have to go
did you disagree
did you stand there on the edge of ether
once more asking me not to leave

I don’t remember

But this once again new life time
leaves me empty
searching emotions...

It was about twelve noon when they asked me to count backwards

Only the potion they used on me just seemed to push me onwards

I got down eighty seven when I heard these voices

Today I Am the Lucky One
Light green leaves, wineberries on brown stems grow in New Zealand's native bush
Sally drinks a glass of red wine each night laughing
Forest of tall trees awesome in their backyard
The mystery beyond an endless river chasing...

Children's Matinee.

For us kids off the common streets
Every weekend we had a special treat
Held at the old community centre
On Monksbridge
Was the children's matinee
Just a stones throw away
Where we enjoyed the films 
Projected upon the screen

Armed...

A Stones Throw- By Elma Mitchell: Prostitute's Response
You think this is the way I wanted to live,
I’ve been through a lot and yes I have
Sinned,

Tell me you have never sinned before?
All my life I’ve wish to go...

I invite you to my window,
Where forks a path you may never go
See that garden there bursting with blooms?
It is yours, but you must only look,
Sit in my boat, but please do not row

Party Way Mush
Sunshine flowers fairies residency established nifty pixies paradoxically complexed; termed nocturnal.
Gnomes way my magic mushroom.
In my magic garden,
You see.
Fairies coloring gnomes playing hide-n-go-seek—Why I wicker baskets lined organic paper sheathe. 
Basking sunshine only stones throw...

Progress
There once was a house up on that hill. 
Just a stones throw away from the old saw mill. 
It stood so tall, majestic and bold 
with tales and fond memories waiting to be told.

Through Their Eyes - For Contest
Intended as a soliloquy

Could this man have been a killer?
In dark pursuit of ones demise.
Steadfast vengeance as my pillar
Consumed resolve, no compromise.

No greater gift, there is but life
Yet blood stained hands I seek to claim.

The road I travel never splits in two,
It always disappears before a lake of truth,
All the others that were here went left or right,
But early on I learned to keep my line of sight…

Catwalk Chaos
Sat in the make-up chair,
a stones throw away from all the glares,
for goodness sake stop the stares,
got to get me bigger hair.


My hair's receding,
so to fulfill this tremendous evening,
I need to be in keeping,

My fingertips are numb.
I've been so sick these last few

A Modest Dwelling
A modest dwelling tucked in the woods
Stones throw to the general store
Conveniently close to gas and goods
Yet a peaceful, secluded core

A winding drive, shaded by pines
A bumpy, lumpy welcome home
Not the rich man’s paradise
But a...

Black Day Overturned
A slight chill surrounding your ghostly smile,
Black sumptuous full pout,
Dark poignant fixated pupils,
Scanning the perimeter to which you stand.


Poised and uncertain,
Frozen like icicles,
Racing thought's,
My life's takes mirrored in sad and memorable comedy shorts.


Dress to darken...
