Face of Fear
Motived by self interest and the chance to explore, 
walking with prerogative as though above the law, 
without any opposition an unstoppable force, 
there’s nothing irresistible in scavenging rewards, 
when suddenly there’s danger the hunger is no more,
invasions are incursions when there’s no will to endure

Knight In Silent Armor
clearly one hears clearly
in the silence of the mind
solitude does not preclude
relationships entwined

beauty's often mistaken 
by those without the key
perception’s combination
ultimately sets it free

defending fortifications

repulsing suspect incursions
protecting treasured reserves

draw not your sword with anger
or revel in other's defeat
rather seek to conquer
standing on your feet

to a knight in silent armor
humility comes with honor...
