City LifeTalking to people
Circles of fear
Straight lines and queers
The conscious mirror drops narrator's tears
Never forgetting the bird with transparent wings
Zombies walking in and out of their mouths
Left me standing
No bottom
No escaping a loss soul...

Ravens
Ravens, clever birds,
but pointed as cursed scapegoats.
A black plumage and
a husky, rebellious voice
often inspire injustice.

Spellbound Seas
Raven seas,
spellcast waves,
~ singing hate
Revengeful tides,
strum the seashores
with soft cracklings,
bleeding kohl ice.
Smoked sienna soul ~
a cacophony,
from vintage gold-vaults,
shimmering with sighs,
a saga unheard....

Death Be Thy RavenDeath be thy raven's blackened plume
And hunched in cape of sordidness
A tower's age of wealth's illume
Becries a pallid nothingness
Where scream escapes an umbral torn
Of ravaged souls in weeping due
The chill of wakes those come...

Ancient ArtWhere patience spilled like dry river
Whirling wind makes the ground quiver
An ancient art hidden for long
Comes back like echo in a song
Where vengeance rages to break free
On ground that hides...

RavenIridescent black feathers
On your porch steps
Reflecting the sunlight
Into your eyes
Obsidian grace
like delicate petals
Soft on my fingertips
Stubborn against the wind
And in the morning's rage
I saw a raven
Still in the screaming sky
Dark marble eyes calm...

Raven
Raven with his cloak of feathers
Shimmers in the noon day Sun
Calling, laughing, hopping, dancing
Plays with light in joy for fun
Teach us now for we have fallen
Far from grace...

Into Deep Raging Darkness a Poor Soul Was Once Cast , Dedicated To Master PoeInto Deep Raging Darkness A Poor Soul Was Once Cast , Dedicated To Master Poe
As deep darkness surges into these old decaying veins
This wounded heart so struggles to gift out slower pulsing beats
How dare wicked...

options are always present and never employed
This poems too long though I hope you enjoy
See you on Saturn in 2 million years
Gentle whisper darkened heart
Greater than the touch
Falling from great heights
Soaring...

ClosedLay down and close your eyes
Remember all the burning in your mind
The flames reaching higher, hotter
Than the sun shining in a straight line.
Narrow goes the vision as the
Warmth takes you over.
Close your eyes.
It’ll wash they...

Ready Made UnbrokenComes a time of unbreaking
what's broken
maybe broken to the point
a thing can't be fixed
ever
forever
severed.
To be sure prayers can find a home
but not when a devine plan's mark
is missed
yet must insist
with clenched fist...

What the FrigginWhat The Friggin
Happened here mate.
I thought we had a date
Now you're late
Where's the bait?
I've burnt the steak.
You're a flippin'
flagellate.
Get off your tailgate
and get over here
and gestate.
You friggin'
degenerate
cheapskate....
