The loss the grief the utter despair
Bereavement the feeling of nothingness
Can also seem like a cyclone of pain there's nothing else that can compare 
It's like the bleakness...

Deja Vu by Andy Jarvis

History repeats itself,
Or so the saying goes.
But generations come and go,

To the Empire of America,
Have used the sword to get their...

Falling from the sky
An explosion of heavy downpours..
A cold chilling night ..
feeling the bone chilling cold..

The sound of pouring rain is a safe haven..
When indoors..
Warm and cozy at home..
Homebound for the night..
Feeling...

Tucked away in this lovely town of harmony
where tourists visit often
and our bears wander in society!

I drove home from a party one winters night
I'd had quite a few drinks but I felt alright
It was pouring rain as I approached our town
My girlfriend said to me, "John will you slow down"...

There is no thing so peaceful
As a winters night in the woods--
A canopy as black as pitch, 
Spangled with the pinpricks of a billion stars--
Shimmering.
The banks of snow and downy flake,
Turned to diamonds by the...

Up in the attic out of sight, a chest lay undiscovered, it contained the skeletal remains
of Lucy's one time lover,

Her life before had been so hard, her looks a little faded. In desperation Lucy made...

I Didn’t Listen

Thoughts of days gone by drift through my mind
Visions of you appear as though magic,

Results of our past, the outcome so tragic.
I lay alone in this cold...

Every winters night I'm kept awake it seems, by the fainting ecos of my lovers screams forever filling the emptiness of my dreams.
Awakening within me the beast, with its eternal lust to drink and feast...

Our window bids good morning 
as sunshine winks her delicate light,
cascading against crimson curves 
as the yearning spoon is stirred
and dawn shines past a moonlight trite
Fingertips caressing,
hips that beckon a lovers moan,
A slow descent of...

Meth Bomb, Homicide Village, 
Diverse Culture Site, Crown Town, 
Kendaltucky and Johnny Appleseed's Homestead;

Standing watch on this warm summer night 
Listening to sounds in the soft spectral light
Calling to my soul a song never ending
That the spirits of the dead forever are sending

Searching the horizon for sails in...

In uniform vision flight of angled 
depth and precision.

The breakfast being cooked outside 
on the roof, in a tree, on a bush with 
no emissions! 
The squeaks and bubbles and hisses - 
these sounds you...

Between the whispers and the sighs

The sweet taste of champagne,
still lingers on her lips
The fragrance of jasmine oil,
slides from her fingertips

I know that I'm ready for,
whatever she has in mind
There's a warmth taking over me,
that's...

Sitting in a hotel on a cold winters night
My eye caught a vision of someone walking by
A guy who smiled and said “Hi.”
I said “Hi” back
But little did I know 
He would be the love...

as olive hands lay to her skin, as if in love,
just barely to escape the falling snow
she's gone to where the fools and...

On a cold winters night 
I fall from the sky
Drifting down in snow flake style

Asleep in their beds
With wondering thoughts
About building me

I see bright eyes
Looking though glass
Excitement building
Each minute

Running with coats and hats
Slamming the door
Laughing...
