Mass genocide of our free minds
society is crumbling
like sand through my fingers

In a quiet moment of solitude
I fear my life may be slipping away
I watch as it ebbs on the wind
Leaving this empty shell behind...

Memory Loss
Her mind was slipping away,
further and further everyday.
"Who are you?", She would say.
"Don't you know me?, I'm Ray!"
"I know him!"...

Fragile
life
slipping away
essentially starving
through calm deception
eyes in pain
a plea for comfort
progressively distant
till nothing
is left
but
dying...

Fading
It's the hardest thing
In the world to see
A loved one slipping away
When they had so much
Life and vitality
That seems to be fading
The pain you feel is
UNBEARABLE!!!...

Dormancy
Silently slipping away through sleep,
A constant drift into further sea's,
Never reawake.
Lying breathlessly,
At peace.
With winds that cleanse
And carry me.
When I dream....

Feel Me
Can you feel me?
Touch me
Can you feel me now?
It's my soul
Slipping away
Slowly, softly
Like a snake I slither
Into the depths of hell
Touch me
One last time
Can you feel me?...

Slipping Away
daily I take photographs
of kitchen messes and
living room piles
papers books, vegetables, boxes
shadows light
outside
heads bent to work and raised to pray
all of this
slipping away...

Balls
We think of time as a ball
Slipping away from us.
We should not think of
Time at all.
We should think of nothing
But the present moment.
It is only then that
We are holding the ball....

September Approaches
Fall
Embrace
With decay
Slowly replaced
Youth slipping away
Hanging in a dark mood
This painting misunderstood
Like the touch of a stranger's hand
Suddenly there's a change in the wind

Slipping Away
The notion of time
a potion sublime
A bottomless pit
the physicists fit
Today or tomorrow
the future or past
As your arms wrap around it
—your hands lose their grasp

Past
Rewind,
make the clock turn back an hour.
Entwined,
inside sheets and nervous laughter.
It's fine,
when did the world start spinning faster?
'Cause I just can’t seem to get a grip on
all these things that just keep slipping away....

Dramatic Verse
For Mary
without a whimper she closes her eyes
slipping away peacefully into the night
leaving a spot of darkness behind
in the night a new star will blind
we can look and find her there
ever present in our prayers
rest, dear one, rest...
