BY

Tears fall like dying leaves, their dust, blowing into my eyes.

They, given birth, created by...

as the days – for me – where few,
not much left – for me – from you.

Everything I have...

The morning after

Is there any reality to ?, or is it just another Dream ?
Four AM, and again, I am awoken by a dream,
That dream tells a story, is that story a truth ?,

but no smiles at the stop...

Light is kin to vapor, 
	to certain fogs, 
	and the effervescence of ideas,
	yet Edward Hopper’s summer light, 
	when it comes late in the afternoon, 
	is solid, opaque,
	the color of soft butter,
	heavy with heat and remorse,...

Sister Wm. Mary

I never learned a lesson when I was still a child.
My father didn’t have the time so I just ran wild.
Mama told me, “God would never leave my side”. 
But I’ve been alone...

Why won’t addiction  leave me alone,
Get fed up and just go away,
It’s not like we’re friends or get on all the much,
But he insists on having to stay,
We may have the odd laugh,
Hang out...

So I will love my mother
She is the precious ingredient of my life
Not less than the love...

A one dimensional walk – I take  - with you.
A four dimensional journey I want to go through
time’s passing, – with you – that is what I would like to do

I met a transient man the other day
He looked discerningly average with a hint of surreal,
He was real,
As much as real can be,
He was ripples of time in the form of a man,
Not travelling time...

"...though nothing can bring back
the time of splendor in the grass
of glory in the flower..."

while mental failings mount
and I, powerless, mourn
your losses, in...

instigated by Oberon in Act 2, Scene 1,
Midsummer Night's Dream, Wm. Shakespeare

Has the son of Venus, god of love, lost his aim?
Bow’s arrow rendered useless in men’s game.
In truth, ‘twas it the moon who was...

I don’t need to recognize you
I am conquered not 
I surrendered never to you
I fought till death
I cling to live for death
I enjoy dying to live 
I have nothing to owe you

I can lie like you wouldn’t believe,
Convince you beyond doubt,
I’ll back it up with reasons that make sense,
I’ll say it with sincerity,
Staunch and resolute,
Done so well I won’t need a defence,
I’ll play the victim,
Play the...

You are the meaning
I am the word
We are both definition
The shortest the better
Capture the moment while it is there
Initial capture is the real capture
A capture comes from the heart
Every meaning has its own meaning

Work to eat or eat to work?
This is seemed similar to:
“Who comes first, the egg or the chick?”
I want to work so I can eat

It is true,
That once we were so much more,
But through the ages of devolution,
We have become lost within our time,
What once we were capable of now is incomprehensible,
No longer open to interpretation,

For the pain of your possible death in the throws of war weigh heavy on me,
Repeating its torturous torments day after day,
Like a fresh flaying of my heart as...

You hate the still of the darkness,
You tell me lightning scares you,
You can’t stand the wind ,


I see the heavens releasing tears of happiness to rejoice in the beauty...
