The Dark Abyss
He found what he was looking for,
   his shadow turned inside out

He moved beyond prescriptive cure,
  all questioning and doubt

He left the future-past behind,
  silhouette of all he’d missed

Impregnating the moment within himself
 —to light the dark abyss

(Winston Salem, North Carolina: October, 2017)...

Limbus Puerorum
Most of our lives are lived
in an in-between world…
yesterday and tomorrow the bookends
to what has happened
and what is yet to come
ordering the mayhem in an artificial attempt
at unity and control
escape becomes an option for the very few
who no longer believe in the prescriptive banner,
the forecasted promise,
the dogmatic challenge
—or the printer’s ink

(Dreamsleep: October, 2020)...

Is seeking a story

Bringing relief

Without dissolving

The story...



It 

All comes back

To nothing

A seeming something

Which is and is not

It...



It 

Can appear

Prescriptive or

Descriptive

But always

Empty...



Purpose

In life is

A story arising

Identifying me

With a unique

Purpose......
