Orbits

Orbit or forfeit but never collide
You’ll just mess it up like last time

On a beach in St. Augustine, Florida, I thought I wanted you.

Orbit or forfeit but never collide
You’ll just mess it up like last time

I could have sworn I knew you from somewhere, the way your hair aligned with the freckles on your nose

A New Day Somewhere On Earth

Somewhere on earth, there is a new day
Somewhere on earth, people get paid
A new day has less than twenty four hours
Earth orbits around the sun 366.2499 days a year
Which brings hope, joy, love, and despair
The future encompasses several flairs
Of new days. As long as there is life
There is a new day for the wife
To talk

Orbits

A man-made satellite
slides along the curve of night

while celestial bodies curve
around one another

bathed in the forces of gravity
like tides on the ancient sea.

The Spheres Move In Their Orbits

The spheres move in their orbits and I,
who should know better, listen to their
Song. Crystal melodies whisper to my 
Soul, singing me towards my doom, a
Siren Song of love. Ageless, eternal,
Love exists only in our imagination, 
A conception, just as are the heavens
And the resonance of the orbs, that spin 
Endlessly along the arcs of

Brokenhearted Orbits

The crescent moon has hid from me its glow
 And stars have lost their twinkle in the sky
 My broken heart floats in this celestial throe
  As the goddess Venus flickers with a sigh

 The heavens tell me love is lost
 As I orbit a galaxy of broken hearts
 The price of love comes

Hippolytus and Phaedra In Declining Orbits

Hippolytus and Phaedra In Declining Orbits

Hippolytus and Phaedra, a Euripides sad story
Phaedra wants sex with Hippolytus, (her step-son)
She tries every trick in the book for her own glory

Hippolytus, illegitimate son of Theseus, (king of Athens)
Phaedra, his wife was not very nice 
Theseus wants his son dead for what he tried to do

Hippolytus, (sworn to chastity)
