Alone
the stairwell so steep
the lights are dimmed; so dark

it's a hard climb...

Pumpkins in stairwell I follow them down the steps Each has eerie glow From the small candle within Lighting up its soul on fire

A Spanish Sun
Saffron light dipped and angled down 
the stairwell of an abandoned train station 
in such a way that one might think 
God put Picasso in charge of painting 
the sun-baked afternoon. 
The amber hue on earth 
was a sharp contrast 
to his Blue Period sky....

Little Jimmy
He's made fun of for the last time.
Tied a rope up.
Walking through the halls of high school.
The rope is swinging from the stairwell.
He jumped on the railing, Head inside the rope loop.
He jumps and gets choked.
That was in 1930.
He was never nerdy.
He just wanted to be FREE....

Majesty
Majestic stairwell
Chambers of gold
Rooms filled with laughter
Of life will uphold

The ceilings above us
Chrystal and clear
Sparkles on the floor
The light dances with cheer

Tears from the laughter
The only kind you will see
In the kingdom of heaven
All sadness will flee

Miranda Lambert...

I pushed at the open door,there was no sound,no noise,just darkness all around.Dust filtered my nostrils,a mustiness of lost years inhabited my senses.A loose floorboard creaked as I headed for the stairwell,the aroma of her Chanel provoked memories of my living hell.A tear of self-pity congealed in the dirt as I switched on the light."Hello son,...I knew you'd be back...He's gone..."...

Premium Member A Fully Repented Spirit Rises-
Quarry mine in the presents of His glory
Rocky mountain are the stairwell to the heaven

Key lime pie to the sky
Green light deep dark world

This be the story
Tumbleweed embracing Plymouth Rock laden

Sparkle wild huckleberry flies
The sparrow tours

I repented soul changed in mid Glory
Spirit risen rises to the Holy of Holies

Premium Member MY LAST N-A
I pushed at the open door
no sound
just darkness inside. 
Dust filtered my
nostrils, 
    a mustiness of lost years
inhabited my senses. 

A loose floorboard
creaked in the stairwell, 
the aroma 
of her Chanel provoked memories 
of my
living hell. 
A tear of self-pity congealed
in the dirt at my feet

I switched on the light
"Hello son
     I knew you'd be back;
He's gone..."...

Naked In the Pouring Rain
Written May 23, 2016


Seems you'd hide
Cornered in the stairwell
Hugging concrete
Slowly ascending
Holding onto railings
But in your head
You're always singing

The neighbors throw
Their doors wide open
To hear all the commotion
To see your mind in motion
In a world all
To yourself
You're only human after all

If we could
Only find
The answers to our aching pains
Until then
There you stand
So fine
Naked in the pouring rain...

The Final High
now that is hills are covered with clover
like a new days sun suspended in the sky
shadows dawning hear me calling on the stairwell
praying that you dont see me cry

rugged thoughts of fear and loud commotion
panic stations in my brain
twisted colours in a champagine supernova
illuminating up and down my spine


now that is hills are covered with clover
like a new days sun suspended in the sky
shadows dawning hear me calling on the stairwell
praying that you dont see me cry...
