cracked sidewalks,
broken hopes,
sad dreams,
hurry before the fire starts,
and your good friends leave you
and your enemies take you over,
hurry before people cry out
for the happiness you possess
they with suck you dry like a bone
and take...

Darts through hanging pictures of me
And cracks in the photos, framed on the shelf
But they're not there physically
My trust makes a run for the hills
As the rumors start to spill...

The ButterflyFrom the day she emerged
from her cocoon and spread
her brightly colored wings,
her life was destined for heartache.
She went through every kind
of pain imaginable, abuse from
the harsh winds, loosing friends
and family members to those damn
windshields in...

A Mother's PainA single tear-drop trickles from her eyes…
as she looks for answers from the skies,
in the twinkling of an eye her baby girl dies,
without a chance to say goodbye.
A cry of pain, a wail of plea…

Big Blue Alien Food Farm[Our perspective]
Blackness superimposed by glowing blue
Smearing white spiraling cloud icings
Appearing applied by a painter’s hand
Soon to stretch and then to transform
As eventually will happen with all belief systems
The curvature and reflection of oceans
Vast emerald forests...

Ever Watched a Bug - a Long Crawly PieceHovering in never ending circles,
Some crawling every which way across the ceiling,
Others in deliberate lock step across your floor,
Will they light on you or crawl up your leg?
They don't even know you yet want to...

Towards the heavenly prize

Keeping us in mental and physical chains

Carpe Diem
Endless, ConfinedA sky of gray dances before me
Endless and angry
Blanketing this dirt road
In impenetrable fog
We're all lost, enthralled
With our delusions
Clinging to our convictions
Tightening the ropes around our necks
And everywhere I look
All of my friends are dying
Trapped...

No More Me
The day it died
No-the day I died
It was beautiful
Sunlight gleaming
Across windshields
Casting shade on blacktop
Birds singing in trees
Leaves trembling in the breeze
Urban landscape
Somehow exotic
Both familiar
And somehow alien
I recall the foul stench of construction
The gentle laughter of...

Their lives subsist on people who give
They are children with adolescent minds

My LifeThe first time I was on a near death experience,
I was 25
Cold winter day
Lightly snowing
Icy roads
Frost coved windshields
Car lights passing
And gone
Kids in the backseat
Music going loud
Talking on the phone
Screaming and crying
Wild like a...
