With every word

The Glittering Multitudes
The voices asked me, how I am?
Told them,"Fine", they won't understand.
The Cassiopeia seemed to ask again,
The same question I've been imagining for days.
While gazing out of the French window,
And watching the beautiful but fatal snow,
I wonder how a man would feel,
Packed in the same snow and sealed;
Gazing those glittering multitudes,
And seeing no warmth or

Multitudes of Souls Dying Within
Multitudes of souls, dying within.
Hearts broken, hanging by a string too,
Keep wondering why this has to be,
Why can't life, just be through?
They go through life aimlessly wandering,
Something to satisfy their pain.
Drugs and alcohol is the answer, so they think.
They figure what else in life is there to gain.
It sure isn't fortune or fame.
They eventually

Mercy From the Memory of Multitudes -
Let them say I was a simple, stubborn person,
hypersensative or insensative, a dispenser of partial justice,
a person of particular patience,
may those who encountered me in moments of bliss or blight,
in instances of charity, charisma or condemnation speak of me ruefully & beautifully,
some will surely say that I was apolitical, asexual, atypical,
an atheist an animist, a

Multitudes
A multitude of raindrops
Each smaller than a pea
Can cause torrential floods
Washing houses out to sea
A multitude of white lies
Each trivial when told alone
Can stir up mass hysteria
Allowing hate to be condoned
A multitude with apathy
Each reluctant to get involved
Can result in class inequities
As the human race evolves
So, if you think that you as one
A difference cannot

Multitudes In the Valley of Decision
Multitude, multitude in the valley of decision
share of this light, shun thy cares and confusion.
Fortitude, fortitude was upheld for thee on the cross
sob for thy sin, drop thy dross and loss at the cross
Multitude, multitude on the verge of perdition
see thy filthy phlight, shed off thy poor passion
Attitude, attitude is not a ticket to the

Multitudes
Who are all of these people in my head?
I don't know any of them, and yet
they know me so well.
How can there be so many of them with me,
and yet I'm so alone?
They shout at me constantly,
but they have nothing to say.
Their constant reminders of nothing
keep me awake at night, making me remember
all
