LOST
Lost in echoes of darkened time
dampened, dithering, dazed
wet withered witches mime a dime
fearful, I’m mazed or crazed
Calling Divinity, voicebox shut
eyelids glued, nostrils stuffed
lips zipped with copper thread
eardrums worrisome waned
Where are chiming confluent clocks
highways and internet ?
shadows dim whisper, “badly blocked,
pointless you bet, get set !”
Surely I paid every debt
learnt my lessons very well
trusted

90 Mile Beach
90 Mile Beach
Watching the waves surrender
The beauty of this dance
Played out like a contract killing
The wind rips at the land like a starving rat
Angry at the moon for the tide
Screaming for answers
She strangles the trees
Barely visible in the blue-black light
A silhouette against the sand
Longing for the horizon
He

GLOBAL WARMING
Summer is here the sun shine dim,
The rays no longer burn
The world became cold.
Flowers stopped growing
Rejected by the sun,
Slowly dieing the world is no longer fun.
It's the last hour struggling to survive,
Distant by souls time for goodbye.
The past is frozen soon to be forgotten,
Like ripe fruit slowly becoming rotten.
The ocean

Shakabukued
There’s a hole in my soul
A rip in its fabric
It’s in dire need of repair
When in walks an imam,
Guru, priest, and rabbi
And each of them declares:
Only I have the truth!
If you want your soul mended
You must follow me
Just as God intended!
I walk away in confusion
In crushing dismay
When two young ladies' approach
And here’s what they say:
We’ll

Lost Life
Just a bit of tissue,
Hidden on a shelf,
Is all thats left of her life,
When she was herself,
The faded copy of a book,
Left on the bedrrom floor,
It fell off the bed,
When she banged her head,
On the bedroom door,
They couldn't hear her calling,
For help into the night,
When she came to in the morning,
She

A Lost Life
You only live once, I’ve heard people say.
Oh how I wish, it wasn’t that way.
I hadn’t a chance, right from the start.
No, not a helping hand, nor a loving heart
It was no bed of roses, not even close.
A life full of hurt, I endured more than most
My brother and I, we survived the ordeal.
Then came

The Lost Life
Along the highways and byways of this great nation I drive,
I see people struggling just to survive.
Robbing Peter to pay Paul,to try to live right,
They cry themselves to sleep every night.
They want the best for themselves and their child,
But settle for less in a world gone wild.
They fight with depression,anger and despair,
But keep a grasp

The Lost Life
The sound of the bass
Triggered the noise
Just minutes to sunset
Music filled the streets
Paving the crowd
He stood beside me
Far away from the stage
He looked calm and discreet
Tired by the responsibilities
And the monotony of his work
For him, stardom's heaven
Loved and respected,
Envied by men,
And greeted by schmoes
A life he wished for
But love, his nemesis
Washed away his zeal
Took him

Lost Love Lost Life
Do I hold any value
to you?
Cause you are a
million dollar bill
Guess it all depends
on the world view
Truth is im ill
Paper can be so
light
Life has set us
apart
I'm in its left hand
while you're its
right
Know you're still in
my heart
You still make my
broken clock tick
Get in my head
Your that chick
Otherwise im brain
dead
Truth is you deserve
the best
Go and do what

Lost People
Many across the earth
live a life without hope
a life without any point
in poverty unabling to cope
So many without the basics
struggling from day to day
hoping for a better tomorrow
grasping for whatever they may
Do we shed a tear for them?
do we even spare a thought?
for such as these Jesus came
indeed we His disciples are taught
To all the

Live Like Theres Plusure To Be Found
The sun dies and the moon comes to life,....
I lay awake dreaming, what life could be like,....
If I could turn back the hands of time,....
And live life from the beginning with Rhyme....
As tears lay dormant and my cries remain silent,....
My past attacks me with a depression so violent,....
I try and count the stars, but I

Love In All the Wrong Places
The words I Love You taken to lightly misused guilt cross the mind of many.
Truth of the matter is I believe that she is lost. The many paths she had chosen. Somehow, something happened and time seem to have just jumped from one point to another as she blames the world for her misdeeds

The Dream
The Dream
On it’s final journey – destination – a coma –
realization, a stagnant pool of reflections,
images on fun house mirrors –
surrealistic paintings
upon the walls of times passing,
it’s life diminishing, slowly, upon wings
of a sorrowful, soulful, agonizing flight
into the realms of death’s domain.
Dreams come to the midnight hour – hovering above.
Dreams fade - in quiet

Women- the Road Familiar
Refreshing feel of identifying with music in my life,
The mother’s voice still echoes sweet in all life’s strife’s.
She taught me to walk, run, dance and sing,
My mother still stands strong in love and vigor in my life.
Kindergarten, the start of knowledge in life,
Where Mini, Lakshmy, Susan, Shoba and Meera,
Still shines as star's in my
