Banshee
Entombing the scream 
into my body to hide 
the banshee 
for the sake of guarding
this terra incognita;
the peacetime of ours....

Frozen Bill
Laid off, Unemployed, no pay
No funds to pay the electric bill
Service disconnected. Temperatures plumeting
As night sets, snow and ice fall silently apon the eaves,
entombing the house.
Silent night plays, somewhere...
while his body freezes and life ends.


For Laura Mckenzie's contest winter's beauty/destruction...

Tomorrow Unpromised
Where would we be
without the bomb
Was Einstein a savior
or devil aplomb
Our power the fire
all enemies dread
Till stealing its physics  
unmaking our bed

The world on the edge
of a looming abyss
Missiles entombing
a terrorist wish
Tomorrow unpromised
all time day to day
Eternity waiting
—forever to blame

October Eve
Pressed loudly underfoot
dead leaves fracturing
scattering beneath me.

Warm fragmentary vapor
slated breath steaming
evaporating before me.

Incurious quiet somber
nearly naked trees
standing beyond me.

Advancing dread dusk
day skies sepulcher
entombing above me.

Forlorn and unforgiving
October day ceasing
enveloping me frigidly.

Chasing Disaster
Chasing disaster 
Run to the fire
Entombing passion
Killing desires
Walking in darkness
Trek through the mire
Taking the low road
Resting by fires
Dismissing the rumors
Acknowledged 
Revised
Betrayed too often
Severed the ties
Wolves in sheeps clothing
Many wrong turns
Steering towards destiny
On bridges once burned
Burdens too heavy
Weight wears me down
Swimming still sinking
Waiting to drown...

Premium Member Dreams Unfulfilled
To lounge beneath a passing star
      Where unfulfilled dreams wane, afar
         No fog or glow cleansing these tears
     As grief, in harsh shadow   appears
   Entombing bleakest thoughts, I sink--
This agony… my poisoned drink.
