By being adept
With a secret kept

The face is glow...

When Someone Lies

...When someone lies and does it well,
It makes it very hard to tell
That in his head, the truth must dwell,
Though very deeply hidden.

The stories that he tries to sell,
Repeated like a broken b...

A Surge of Logic

...Maverick waves turn the tide 
crashing like an out of tune refrain;
Things so wrong I could have cried;

Momentum stronger than a train,
all the wind knocked out of you;

...A bell-jar, crystalline, as transparent as an aquarium
Vibrant colors burnt umbers tints glass atop the kitchen table.
No elaborate gardening, just gentle misting in the terrarium

Ode To Fanny Craddock

...Ode to Fanny 

Her start in life was rather poor

Earning enough for her bread and butter

Her break in life came rather lat...

This night is as still as the death that stalks the unsuspecting.
That creeper of the shadows, the face that only takes on features              ...

Game Over

I'Ve Lost My Pen and You Can Tell It

with valor strength and flair
I'll put my paper by your side

Independence Slavery

...Sail from afar of my journey made.
What could be the sound my ear do hear?

Never Too Late To Say I Love You Until

...Never Too Late To Say "I Love You" Until...

Futile lamentations reverberate along
corridors of times long gone, this papa
tearfully apologetic revisiting his base,
fitfully lachrymose torturing...
