Make believe you love me. Make believe you care. Make believe it's my fault. For you're no longer there. Make believe it's over. Make believe a lie. Make believe you love me. Make believe goodbye. Believe I really loved you. Believe I really cared. Believe my heart is broken, for I'm no longer there....

Premium Member Make-Believe Pie
Why even try to explain, its insane when I take a sneak peak at my life, I often feel cloned and unreal. Reality smacks and I'm under attack I dream and I dream like a dope, savoring slices of make-believe pie. ...

Premium Member The Great American Make-Believe
Suburban resident pretense, a bleak uniformity. I grew up among the repetitious homes, isolated alienated, I wandered the conformity, the endless square yards, the dull feckless syndrome. Repugnant yet intriguing, a redundant singularity, fabrications of fortified, fraudulent self-deception, blocks and blocks of suffocating, vapid vanity, I endured the bland boredom like an endless inquisition. All history, all memory was recklessly...

It came to me in moon’s soft shadow, As it will at times, still as the frost Withering the leaves, branches unsheltered, Buried in embittered … On December’s naked chill, Startling the shadows From forests who can fill The heart with a sense of its Melancholic mist, fading… Into the echo of night’s brave Silence, like a lost thought Stuttering as it flies, Right...

Premium Member Make Believe and Crazy
("Creation Myth 101", 2018, original encaustic) Make Believe and Crazy A world gone mad Upside down, inside out And if you don’t like it You must be a phobe. Gaslighting's nothing new But today it’s all the rage In the name of a new religion Of which thou shall comply. But if you don’t Where does that leave you Old and in the way Or ready...

A Pillowcase Backpack
A pillowcase backpack, camping under the kitchen table. Lost in imagination, deaf to strife. In every way full of wonder of life. Holed up in a couch cushion bunker. Barefoot and bare chested. Taking aim to fire a one-eyed shot. Make believe enemies threaten an onslaught. Built a kingdom of cardboard With a window cut...

Let's Play Pretend
Let's play pretend Pretend you are the hero and I am the damsel in depression You sold me a magic future you'd crafted out of fool's gold And I fell into the shimmer A siren song in rough seas and I sang merrily we fall What adventure novels did I neglect While chasing a happily ever after...
