A typical recurring theme
the artist's extrovert dream...

bergamot tales past retold

in ceramic gleams

such recurring dreams

turning silver into gold.

Mental image drawn
Encoded message filed
Mapped sequence spawned
Ostracized in time capsule
Recurring stimuli recall
Yearning for continuity...

resurfacing self doubt
recurring negative

once again after 
being buried for 
so long within 
the recesses of 
the subconscious mind...

When u r mad
But when it's over
You are sad.

You hate what you said
You hate what you did
In front of Ned
And the other kids....

Big, orange

Rising, glowing, forecasting

Preparing for Autumn's harvest

Recurring, enticing, enthralling

Amazing, reflective

Frequency of heart beat high
Extreme unexpectation apparent without a sigh
Affliction by an unseen trauma
Recurring in the mind is this non-existing failure tumor....

Hope lies bleeding down a well
    broken and afraid 
Screams rebounding off the walls 
Help stands distant on a hill
    silent and restrained 
Dreams recurring of the falls...

The problem with heaven, 
is it's tailed by hell;
A perfect vision, 
but it flees so well.
A light in nightmares
Lasts for one moment
Then ends in despair, 
Recurring torment....

Over the horizon
a harp is playing

Its call recurring,
its tone Divine

Beyond the swell,
a calm is waiting

Its breeze untethered
—to flow sublime

great rendition made so plain,
of the bitter hurt n pain,
flows its spirit free,
recurring constantly,
the bitter aftertaste,

space itself yields
when we are one with it
and as a mark of love
reveals through its crevice
light that lights all lights
shimmering from beyond
beheld in plain sight
in our waking state
as recurring epiphany 
affirming the eternal truth...

Her perfume scent lingers

triggering lives with shots of translucent recurring images and flickering pages, 

permanently installed unto memories and times

that unfurl bringing

to us unaltered,

visions of her fragments

left behind……....

It’s here and there and everywhere

The fogginess of my dreams

I can't escape my thoughts today

So full of cries and screams

The echo of my haunted dreams

Is played over in my head

I’ve always hated recurring dreams

For they fill me up with dread...

Oh lonely Inevitable Bear,
Padding claws, death in white
Sorrow in recurring nightmare
Instinct’s test; fight or flight?

Camouflage against the fence,
A challenge; my subconscious fear
Ominous slowly moving silence,
“Let me in, there’s a bear out here!”...

That ulcer
in his 
consciousness
bleeding
to be heard
A canker
of a 
muted past
abscessing
every word

Cold sores
of detention
that fade
but never
cure
A virus
of his 
hopes and dreams
recurring
— untoward

(Septa R5 Train: May, 2024)

Almost a breathe amongst the trees
Peace be on him
His words lightens the World
He has a recurring past
with different phrases, drifting
His jogged memory allies itself
to a multitude of thoughts
Years glancing hope shall blossom
Today rain blows over the lawn...

With August came hot breeze,
Temps above 110;
Heat, defoliated trees,
Been worse?
Don't know when.
The grass is dead,
No need to mow.
Air so dry,
The Rooster can't crow.
Today a darkened sky,
Splotches, like grey stain.
My recurring thoughts are why?
It does not rain....
