death's shadow blots two through six

U Ology
Whenever a flag flies half-mast
It means that the die has been cast
Be that as it may
We all hope and pray
Our sentiments won't be surpassed...

Set In Stone
Change what you did,
and I’ll change how I feel
You can’t change forever
denying what’s real
The fly’s in the ointment,
the die has been cast
This moment endemic
—predestined to last

Tombstone Inscriptions
One of the best inscriptions, ”I Told You I Was Sick”
Another was “I Was Hoping For A Pyramid” I pooped a brick
Even in death humor lasts
When the die has been cast
“Once I wasn't, then I was, now I ain't again”, that one clicked...

Veil of Forgetting
Veil of forgetting, boon and bane
Aids in feeling contrast
Yet ego measures loss and gain
Die of delusion cast
Freedom from maya bind
Needs desires left behind
Save bliss mist, all are blind
Earth life challenging
Veil of forgetting

Autumn In Nirvana
The die has been cast
And what happens next is really not up to us
As we begin to fall like autumn leaves
Our hearts have begun to speak
And the dialogue between them is what we feel
Our destination is Nirvana far from the sun
A place where two souls meet and become one
To dance on the stars and never be apart...

I do not know?
Forsaken
He thrust the dagger through her heart
Then watched her breathe her last,
For once she had forsaken him
The die was surely cast.
Upon her waxen cheek
He placed a tender kiss.
Then lay his head upon her breast
And opened up his wrist.
Tears stained his face
As they were joined in death.
He took her lifeless hand in his,
Then took his final breath....

Wish Upon a Star
My heart beats out loud,
So far he can't hear
All i want is one wish upon a star,
To be there,
To be near.
To look in his eyes,
And know that he's mine,
Because i promise you
We've got nothing but time.
But life's not like that
So i'll shed a tear,
Watch as he leaves me,
My love,
My dear.
Now look to the star's
The die has been cast
He's not my future,
Only my past....

This Life
This Life
I can’t make head or tail of this life
with so many puzzles and riddles, it’s rife
enigma within enigma, intertwined with mysteries
tainted and misty yesterday, shrouded in twisted histories
Neither a sinner with a future, nor a saint with a past
scarred with vices and blessed with virtues
I seized a moment to pause and reflect, at last
but just when I started to have glimpses
sadly, I saw that the die had been cast.
Dec. 2012, Istanbul...

Quote the Raven
A hole that can’t be filled
an ocean that can’t be crossed
a phrase that can’t be spun
inhaling your exhaust
The measure off the scale
the truant thrice reclassed
the memory twice forgotten
the die that’s never cast
A spider web unwoven
a future distant past
a God beyond religion
a sail without its mast
“To Trip The Light Fantastic”
to burn the bridge uncrossed
to fasten moments end to end
—to find what time has lost
(The New Room: February, 2022)...
