The Beast of the Cave

When I was young, and adventure routine,
With excitement and newness still unforeseen
I was eager to spread my wings to the world
And seek more adventures as those wings unfurled

Raid Versus Woe

Raid versus woe

Black flag(s) show up
on social media platforms
when potential homicidal maniac(s)
communicate(s) intent to strike
with ambush and ready
read - able, eager, and willing
to embark upon murderous rampage.

Prospective killer armed to the teeth
usually a young bucking...

A MINISTER RETIRES: SOLILOQUY

A MINISTER RETIRES :  
SOLILOQUY 

I arise as infant Phoenix 
from Akasha ashes 
counterparts frozen 
with foibles intact
a still Arctic of death
sheath for recalibration 

Source Light breathes into 
fontanelle slowly sleepily  
Sekmet my...

Theater of Utter Charm Part 12

but this is certainly not intended
to be an instrument of terror
except maybe for the habitual

and from whom I am occasionally rescued
speaking of which
it looks like time for my fairy godmother's...

Blunted beaks and big webbed...

Sadly as I put the pen down

Trying to pour out all my emotions 

My trauma and my life drama then I think…

Thinking that i was a writer for as long as i lived

Been playing with...

Mass Debating

We can go for dinner and have a discussion,
a bit of mass debating when we're done masticating.

If you come and eject fluid situations,
give it hard with the exact impact you lay shown,
stand perfectly straight and...

My Favorite President Is Yet To Be

My favorite President is yet to be
  He may well not go down in history
For he'll do what really needs to be done
  Antagonizing almost everyone under the sun

Contradicting Millions

Everything is too simple. 
Nothing is the way it seems. 
It has gotten to the point where I can't even think.
Constant dreams of ruthless killings.
Beatings, screaming, bloody murder.
Shall I take this any further?
The sun will...

Stop

Failure to come to a Complete Stop

Auto battery. 
Clicking.
Depleted energy.
Feeling grumpy, harried, 
Impatiently jump-start Kia.
Leave Mom’s neighborhood.
Octagonal, purely quintessential red sign taunts. 
Upping velocity, willfulness exacerbated, you zoom…

Yikes!

Extraneous white vehicle (undercover)...

Betting On Nothing

By committing to nothing, one retains infinite options.
I have hid inside these words for moons and seasons and New Year’s toasts.
The lone wolf roams fertile pastures unfettered.
The thrill of the hunt.
The chase.
An empty bed is...

God Is a Gateway Drug

“god” is a gateway drug

“god” is a gateway drug
stuffed into little babies when they are too innocent &
unable to fight the parents injecting them with it,
tapping the child’s neck like it was a healthy vein...

Wonderland III: The Watchmaker's Tale

Morning

Having sighed a great sigh
He perused all his tools
From the mainsprings and tweezers
To the wheels and the jewels.

He removed the large case latch
From the pocket watch cover
To survey all the insides
As he would any other.

Marriage, a Path To Prosperity Or a Door To Adversity

Some see serenity in parity
Some seem open to disparity
An institution as old as the hills
Marriage is marked with unclarity 

Some people unable to think straight 
Champ at the bit, they just can’t wait
To make the...

A Seasoned Day

I awoke a clock and watched it countdown towards known silence,
I arose and given the floor the reason for its presence,
Day spent amidst the greenery moored to tawny sturdiness,
Morning sun entice the blooms their ascent...

I Do Not Listen

I do not listen because my heart hurts when I hear the sad, and the mean.
And I get way too loud when I hear the happy.  Sad, angry people frown at
My giant head-throwing witch...

Sit them down and serve them well
Crystal cut glass, French Champagne
And listen to the stories that they will tell

Place guilt across from regret
Whilst heartbreak and sin reacquaint

Words Are Only Words Til They Are Anchored To Change

Words are only words til they are anchored to change,
Which shouldn't sound strange,
To those within range.

Mouthing just the words leaves lips still unaided,
And feet unmoved,
With mountains waiting to be changed.

Change only happens when there is...
