Hurt in the code
Broken wings 
slurred speech

It's said many ways blamed on...

I Am November
I am November, the chilling winds

blending to the conditions very well

I am December, the morning shares
the same blackness as the nights
To which...

Darkness, A Binding Story
The air around me is cold, a hollow ache within my bones. 
Darkness consumes my vision, my dreams are ink spilled on a page.
My shoes are filled with stone, my eyes adrift in a river...

Premium Member Where I Wait for Myself
Every day I awake in a place where the sky
is a mist mourning sleep. I stumble on a tower—
leaning, broken, alone. Its stones call my name 
like someone trying to rouse me, like someone 
who’s...

Premium Member Mislaid Indented Help
Helplessness seeks help in despondency
When resources slip out of porous hands
A tacit realization of innate inadequacy
Devours the dregs of impaired self-esteem.

The feeling sinks in the pool of pale psyche
Averse however to breathe the air of...

Life of Antonio Rickmon
I truly sit and I ask and think why me?
For all the good I put in the world I gotten bad double in return.
I feel alone, outkast, not right in my skin

What If
In the corner café across from the sea
he sits alone reading his book
Thinking of love while drinking his tea
and memories of chances he never took
Her name resonates gently 
recalling moments,
of cheek touched whispers 
yet hands...

The New Dawn
THE NEW DAWN


Sitting, relaxed, atop the cool grass-filled rock,

Jutting out proudly over the calm blue ocean,

I stared in stoned-wonder; held captive 

By the magnificent rising of the yellow sun, 

Ascending, gracefully, across the serene horizon,

And...

On a frosty opaque day in windy winter 
I, an old defoliated tree denied the sky and the soil 
by the young aggressive ones spreading branches,
walk out of the green forest in sheer desperation.

The poet had said :
The world is a stage.

The stage

First Scene
Flood of spotlights
The actor in centre-stage, walks straight
The eyes looking up to the sky

Where Happiness is Hidden
Is there happiness in the finite?

Of course not.
How could there be?

Happiness—

Should I once ignore your smile
Call the undertaker
For I be dead unless I be
Imposter fraud or faker

The beauty that...

Fearless Into Tomorrow
No path exists that has an end
Nor soul can bar the way
No horizon with a lonely heart

Nor hand to go unheld
No world could be that tears...

Crossing barren lands goes to a modern city...

Today while walking together with reverent hands
There are so many unheld books within my unkempt dreams
to the wonderful man that bestows my passions has worn
