But, there’s a million rivers and fires between us
So, don’t throw me under the...

Whither the Fates Carry
Anchors aweigh in 1609, Anno Domini!

The Year 6555
We're now in the year 6555, and I am feeling happy and so alive,

regarding my audiological ability,
which loss of hearing

A Safe Place To Hide
My heart hit the wall like graffiti spray.

Daredevil

There are days that I believe
(and nights that I deny)
love is not mutilation.
Daredevil, dry your eyes.
There are tightropes leaps bereave:

Besieged by endless...

to make you drop your guard
and play patty cakes with Evil

into an actual you
capable of withstanding
the outcomes you...

What Life Means To Me
Life means I can talk to my friends and others,
When the untravelled sea fills with brothers,
Pleasure rushes the uninhabited areas we just don't sail,
And when we semiotically emit our meaning, we will prevail;

A whistling wheezing hamlet, whispering and emanating, tunes euphonic,
In a remote isolated valley, far-flung from the abode of the temporal,
Warbling quietly to whistle scads of tranquil cryptic songs;
Lying spasmodic, a sparsely...
