Cycling O'er and O'er
The kind ones, the mean ones, the big ones, the lean ones- Some try, some don't, and some cry, but some don't. Actions and reactions, what are they but events, cycling o'er and o'er? We laugh, we cry, we live, we die; cycling o'er and o'er. The poor ones, the rich ones, the happy ones, the sad ones, "Why does money even matter?" Cycling o'er and o'er. History repeats,...

Dictionary of Generations
Violence, a physical behavior intended to hurt someone. Violence, the strike from his hand to her face. Violence, the screamed threats as she cries. I try not to panic. Violence, was it intentional or did he just lash out? Violence, is his word true beyond a doubt? Violence, he tells us that he’s sorry. I try to believe it. Violence, the unlawful act...

Not Really
I could write five million words about you And all of them would be true But none of it would be enough Not really. I could write five million poems about you Sonnets, limericks, haikus But none of it would be enough Not really. I could draw five million pictures about you And with every single kind of color, too But none of it would...

I used to Pray
In the quiet of the night When the sun decides to save its light for someone worthy When the stars twinkle in its wake When the moon chases after her lover I used to pray But not with the whispered devotion of a Sister No my prayers stirred something ugly in me Something that festered slowly And ripped Something raw and heavy from...

Filling Caverns
Caverns of patterns, Awaiting your return, A cliff at every turn, For you to fall and burn, Slipping into your pattern. It repeats until you discern, There's a reason for concern, Earning a new lesson, Life is in constant progression. Filling the cavern again, With every little win, Catching the pattern in motion, Slowly filling through devotion, Allowing a new path to open. One that you have chosen, A choice...

The Repetition of Time
(A lone voice whispers) Loss covers many different paradigms. From relationships, family, and friends, but one pivotal thought sometimes gets forgotten in grief. When someone suddenly has died. The love you both once shared, will live forever. Just hidden in a Repetition of Time, as you suddenly remember this 17 syllable drop of bliss. In five, seven, five. As those...

Discipline
Discipline is doing what you hate like you love it Asking for more when you are past the point of quit The dying of an old spirit to let a new one in Forcing progression with a bittersweet grin Just when it seems completely futile When all you can feel seems abysmal That is autophagy taking over Out will come thyself leaner...

Drone
Drone little specs down below watch them scurry to and fro streams of white and red filling an ocean at my behest with broken backs and crooked limbs their hurried toils are the subject of my whims in my lands there is no rest a slow decay, day by day their bones will feed my nest while in the ground they rot away I'm master...
