diastatic and polyphonic purest capital boundary roots
for future's river flow investment
out-flowing down
from...

Aging Ii
Age is a verb for opening the door
Into a judgement of the satisfaction
You’ve found in life, by its opportunities
Beckoning betterment and relationship
I agree that perhaps we could’ve loved more
But you find community in your elderly...

the borders of empathy, binding the reach of the heart.
Compassion...

The Voyage of Life--Youth
Ruffling gold blooms and leaves, hue dimmed by time
A gilded frame holding a slice of life’s history
I’m drawn into the younger man, the vision sublime
Sailing stolidly upstream towards his destiny
A castle in the sky, all...

a quotient of portions, quotidian served
quixotic strivings of the great deca-dense
obscured in meaning, eschewing all sense
visions and nightmares and hallucinations
erudite arguments, odd fascinations

And failure to say it has dealt my heart...

Father's Lullaby
O child of stone, outcast, alone,
succumbing to desire.
Inside your chest, you’re sorely pressed,
assailed by a liar.

the time it spends apart.
When realized,...
