Bird
Center>A finely wrought origami bird,
each feather a flightless paperweight
each wing a flexion of stasis.

I wanted it to come to my hand,

when I thought about that
my fingers fluttered emptily
like paper sparrows.

Into the Darkness
I watched helplessly and emptily into the pure darkness 
As i felt it swallow me up
I reached out my hands to grab anything so that i could pull myself back up
But i grasped at the cold air and i realized
I was defeated
My fate was no longer mine 
Justice and fairness just an illusion 
I was dragged down continuously
I could see no end and no bottom of my cell with an opened door
I laughed bitterly...

Premium Member Death's Denial
Hollow eyes gaze emptily
trapped behind times window
in a futureless past

			He is not gone
			yet I grieve

Lost, he wanders
in the labyrinth
of elusive memories

			He is not gone
			yet I grieve

Reaching to touch
a fading sunset
alone

			He is not gone
			yet I  grieve

As the light flickers
he struggles
in death’s infancy


			He is not gone
			yet I grieve

Needle of the Compass
The road suddenly divided 
I needed the river 
Her two arms replete
with hyacinth of
empathy 

Emptily 
I kept looking at, now
at one direction 
then at the other but
the envelope didn't part 

I needed the river so much 
Her foamy murmur 
into my elongated ears 
to interpret what 
the cherry was 

With the third 
eye at the roses 
tinging dry thorns
pricking my brain cells
I select the leftward turn
