Doctor's Wishes

I wish I could visit
the vacant crystal palace
of your solitude;

to hover 
just one inch 
above your body's coma;

to cauterize
the thugs assailing you

to direct
this story's ending
with the end of me.


Bedazzled In a Opaque Beauty

Bedazzled in a opaque beauty, trapped deep within the colossal caverns of 
senseless agony.
Lie await the nefarious to bestow, conjuring assailing flames.
The hindered habituated set free above all inversely to conquer, retake reality

Reasoning

methodical thinking...
without blinking...
foraging ahead.... 
to keep from sinking...
assailing the senses...
malodorous quenching...
tumultuous thoughts...
that are heart-wrenching
lackadaisical reasoning... 
nonchalant greetings...
that carry through...
with perceptive reasoning...

Not Like This

Revelations,

intimating sanctions,

sailing you to make-shifts,

assailing with blank lips-

I rock Hetty,
while she make's a day-list,

I'm rock steady,
but she's having her hanky tins.

We both have a family-
they all have flailing limbs,

why can't we get along on a train we ask?

But soon lose to space ships

Abuse

An assailing bursts from a mind turned sinister, 
Buoyed by a madness that cares solely for gratification.
Unsuspecting is the defenseless victim, who is forced to 
Submit to demands of pain and perversion that will forever be 
Etched in a mind as an inexorable eclipse fixable only by hope’s light.

Thunder, Aloud

Wailing thunder
 Growling sound
Clutch the earth
As you rumble aloud
ROAR!

Upon the earth
Beyond its clouds
Your frigid hands
Raucously plow
ROAR! 

Striking seas
You rampantly avow
Assailing its waves
You beset, you plough
ROAR!

Dreadful thunder
We berate to you now
With more potency
Our voices shalt make you pow
ROAR!

Premium Member The Shell of Me

i sit alone
westside café
catching my breath
waiting and exhaling

listening to the silence
whirl inside my head
in waves of warm cacophony
in wondrous delightful ways

a swarm of outside sounds
assailing the shell of me
peacefully savoring
how divinely sublime

calm washes over me
luscious as
a warm caress

Premium Member Tempestuous

Seething skies like bloodshot eyes,
wailing gales assailing through canyon ~ 
weeping fits, ember storm cries
bristling tears with random abandon.

East to west, unwanted guests,
downsloping dire breeds with fire
fueling fest of fiery crests
aborning hells of unholy spire.

Santa Ana merciless winds breathing
capricious firebrands kindle tinder teething.
