As on life one reflects.
That dusk begets the dawn,
As life goes on,
You don’t need a thinking cap,
To avoid this apparent trap....

As on life one reflects.

And life goes on,

love in love
with thy heart
spawns bliss beats

oh hermit
hush thy blush 
whence thus grazed

as the child
of God’s light
thy soul shines

Haiku One
winds turn, grass bends north
flowing river leans forward 
calm follows low lands

Haiku Two
fathomed depths find birth
nature at home, ocean spawns
dawn arrives weary...

Windswept
  Voyagers sail
     Across sunset's 
        Amber horizon.

Billowing breeze
  Spawns crested waves,
     Crashing ashore.

          quite dour and dry

my sanctioned kiss?

          that kiss, goodbye ...


for each the others

          so spawns a curse

the heart devoured ...

          drowned and terse....

            incessant,

        adolescent, stomps
                its feet
          in restless temper —
               puddle duck spawns

Some will find out who they are
then write of what they’ve found

And some will write to unmask
who they are as they expound

One spawns introspection
and a self-deliberate tone

The other births a magic ride
—whose terminus unknown

To keep us caged, ego spawns fear
Mirrored by dark desire
This blocks God’s light from drawing near
We give up when we tire

Silence shows us the way
Sparking bliss here to stay
Truth then seen, clear as day

Mind battles waged
To keep us caged...

Darkness, the beginning path
  spawns brightness at the end

Storm clouds over a troubled youth
  division on the mend

Struggles, trials, and failures past
  just fuel to keep you warm

Sagacity, the final truth
   —eyes seeing through the harm

You were the gasoline
To the flame inside
I was lost in between
Your fame and my pride.

You want me back
Your interruption is late
This heart is turning black
As corruption spawns hate.

But I'll let it go
As we all forget the past
Only if I surely know
This time it's going to last....

The voyage of the heart forsaken

Along the righteous path not taken

The darkness there permeates the soul

Spawns an empty life without a goal

Sullen with a lack of gratitude

Ever cloaked with such vile attitude

Down a staircase where fate soon tumbles

A self-made house of cards that crumbles...

For each morning that spawns
I evade your virulent dialect
Each syllable born of your orifice



Is embellished by grisly tones
As helpless I am forsaken
To canker in ire



To awake is to honor the culture of the universe
Though your miserly revelry ceases to deliver amity
Whilst your exploits wither into oblivion...

crimes against humanity;
