Do you know how it corrodes your soul
To see how the stench that follows your...

I guess we all have it; some, more than others.
Sisters, Brothers, Fathers and Mothers,
We look at each other and look in the mirror,
Hoping one day we will all see much clearer.

And went down to the registry desk.
She picked up the ledger, poured through it all,
There was something that she had to check.

Her...

You honor me with your vulnerability
Your scars of life
Your unhealed wounds of betrayal

Hand in hand, we walk along.
Flicker up the sand.
Amidst the soft light of summer's evening silhouette,
The sky stack with images of a beautiful portrait.

Colourful sunset over the sea.

Time changes!
.................................................
I wait endlessly,
time hangs heavy,
the day is a drag,
a huge burden on me.

I see the changing colours of the sky,
the floating clouds, flying birds,
people rushing to their destination. 
I hear the chirping of birds,
buzzing...

A fortress of stone, with no retreat,
I kept the world at bay with ease,
And let no one come close to me.

Spider’s Wire
 
The light of the sun
Rode down the strand.
 
Photons riding a wire.
Natural polymer, most grand.
 
Slowly down the spider's web
Reflections of the sun now ebb.
 
Insect trap? Optical fiber?
Why not both and call...

a world of fervor that ignited the slightest spin
All the expressions you whispered to me,
That seemed to be so true.
Were nothing but uncaring assurances,
Surprised I was to hear them...

The lover's smile, limb that draws warmth with deft touch!
