Solution Prospects Grow Bleak and Weak

Leave free agents alone
Bully
For they’ve got no time to be the clone
You hurt truly and deeply

In games without aim
Where you torture and suture at will
Treating victims the same
Way happiness you steal

To boost your roost
Bereft of sympathy
Milking hearts reduced
To torture telepathy

Leaving them reeling in horror
At the reckless manner
In which you unleash terror
Brandishing the indifference banner

Spelling and

Grace hurls a show,
Reach for the seed;
Align with flow,
Nurture this need;
Define clear sight.

Express with voice,
Claim a new space;
Thrill in the fact,

If there are still jobs that have benefits like that,
They’ll soon be gone in an economy that

Striated with light in places
Rope like twisted clouds

Is this a true sign
Of rain coming down today
Mother nature lies

Uncertain Prospects

Is it possible to yearn for love’s scrutiny?
Without ever having seen your face
Is it possible to long for the presence of beauty?
Though never been blessed by its grace
Is it possible to see a future so bright?
On a path that so infinitely seems
Can you picture us naming the stars at night?
As we journey on roads paved
