Long Work of art Poems

Ah yeah ah oh
Ah yeah ah oh

Unfaithful me is as cold as glaciers of disgrace glamorized 
Unfaithful you is as hot as fire of desire, burning...you and I...

Never sure year to year of the harvest,
So their talents were...

I’m not alone
And I’m not a failure

Feeling like a Jailure

I was brave enough
Life can be quite rough
I was...

"Sick Art"



I walk the streets
still and quiet
I do not lie
I do not betray
what the heart belies
pickled kidneys 

I am a ghost
of my former self

ears lent to hear 
the sweet music
of the sounds so fraught
caught up...

He drives for all the passengers an Uber didn’t grab
Which means he has a lot of time to kill most every day
And lots of evil folk to...

ON EVIL DOINGS

I blame all of it, the evil doings, on boredom.

I feel rather empty…
Flushed, confused, free me?
I’m feeling kinda dirty
To be honest, I’m fake happy

Wearing a smile like the rest of us
But, there’s a million rivers and fires between us
So, don’t throw me under the...

Sudden movement of my heart, a shattered piece of art, 
Broke me apart from the start…rolling in the inner death-cart
Heartrate going sky high — I won’t lie nor can I deny that life cuts deep...

You’re up close and personal
Hold up, I’m trying to stand tall
Lift me up before I fall
Tell me just for a minute
If you love me bit by bit
I’m just screaming aloud in this pit,
Tears falling out...

You’re my star – I set fire to our firey rose 
Bouquet of stars – I hand to you –

You came out of the blue, I’m left without a...

Hidden beneath the hopes and dreams, gentle
Feelings, inspiring me to trust, believe
Fondness this alive isn’t accidental
It feels amazing, just like Christmas Eve,
Joyful and inspired, like a heart afire
Breathing whispers of light over the soul
Remembering the...

There’s a flame that’s in my heart
It’s burning so much till I tear apart
I tear apart, it’s a shame,
I’m not to blame
For, I’m a flame

It’s a flame…
There’s a flame that’s in my heart
It’s...

Early one morning, as fresh springtime was just ending,
I was hiking in the woods, and overhearing the birds sing.

And with a tranquil heart, and lost in a deep green world,
I was reveling in the gaiety,...

Worthwhile


Your smile is a sonic boom, it blows me away.
I didn’t have a wow moment,
There is no word that can say,
How amazed I was,
I was lost,
I was gone.
I ceased to exist and I was reborn...

........Cactus
....Water Towers
Isolated desolates
Wrapped in spikes
Fluted aqua Greys
Or in military green
Reaching the skies
The desolate cacti 
The desert fingers 
Withholding blaze..
Desicating breeze..........
.Blistering freeze..................
Where not a blade....................
Nothin' germinate......................
Them root in dust.....................
Wasteland, gravel.....................
The fluted barrels......................
They shrink in dry......................
Bellow up...
