Regrets of aborted revisions 
Corpse of yesterday’s decisions

Listen to poem:

Voiceless Visions
David J Walker

I remember I replied
To the voiceless visions 

Vivid as the sunrise 
Valid as revisions

Fading as the sunsets
Recondite Intrusions 

Celebrated onsets 
Equinox conclusions

Winer is waiting as Autumn is fading
Yet again...

The calendar’s schizophrenic, 
in such constant indecisions.
Ten times a day the weatherman,
gives me his forecast revisions.

Snowflakes fall with claps of thunder,
rain will be mixed with frozen sleet.
Mornings it will be frigid cold,
afternoon brings us burning heat.

Flowers of love
Looking sweet and smell pretty 
Giving life to all 

Lovely Humming Bird 
Sings a love song to the soul 
Empty hearts renewed

Passion projected 
Valentines now on the brink 
Why only today?

Startled by the hallucination
of himself upon the wall
The man of a compromised conscience
cringes with apprehensive velocity


Debilitating panic emerges
with a disconcerting air of predictability
Transporting him, intangibly, to a setting that prohibits
his own narration
Forcing him to endure his biography
without any preferred revisions...

And in my dream that's where I am
Along with Jesus and God and Abraham
No greater love, no humanity
Could contain, chorale, or elevate
Consumed with ambition
Glorious revisions
Golden paved streets
And on them mansions galore
My name on the mortgage, no this isn't a loan
My Lord, My God has given me heaven
New home mansion in heaven

Listen to poem:

The Object of Objectivity 
David J Walker
	

Objectively trapped within 
	The lost cause of
Freedom from bias that
comes at the cost

Of uncertain death 
        ambivalent rebirth 
A quality of character rehearsed

A paupers portion
	A supplicant petition 

The magician hides the truth  
	Inside revisions 
Coerced

The magician hides the ruse  
	Inside intentions  
Emersed...

Combing through the carnage
Questions outnumber answers
Derailed if dwell on the details 
Will we forfeit all our advances?

Easy to get singularly focused 
On second guessing decisions 
Better to not ruminate on regrets
Since the past has no revisions 

Power in pivoting to the present 
As a new path has been charted 
Final destination still unknown
But in a better place than we started...

Writing is freedom
An escape from this chaotic world
Your pen gliding across the paper 
Each perfect word carefully chosen
Magical thoughts appearing in your mind
Your hand aching- but not caring
The pen halting to a stop
Your eyes moving back and forth rereading your masterpiece
A sweet taste consumes your mouth as you say, “Man that’s good”
Deciding no more revisions will do you justice
You stow it away in a journal for only your eyes to read....

I feel like a
mountain,
undiscovered,
	lost amongst a
forbidding range,
its quiet sides
rock-strewn and snow
covered,
	its anonymity
unlikely to change.

No climbers seek out
its cloud shrouded
peak,
	hidden beside
greater visions,
there is nothing
special of which to
speak,
	never to be
map-made revisions.

It blocks no path or
points the hiker’s
way,
	None even find it
derisible,
For all the world I
can confidently say,
	It is simply
invisible....
