There Is A Darkness

there is a darkness
stalks us all

denials damsel
in distress
				
seeking refuge
 in feigned faith

blanketed
in folds
of fate.

There is a darkness
seeking light
within the crease
of creeping night

devoid
of metronomic pace
subsisting on
discarded grace.

There is a darkness
humankind
looming over
peace

nothing
	  learned

nothing
	    to teach

Crazy Heart

It's a sorry mind
That falls from the sky
Upside down and half blind,

Bleary eyes tell tears
Not where to go but why,
How they came to be here.

Being from a rental shelter,
Habitations made with cubes
All stacked row by row renters.

City domiciles duplex'd forever
Subsisting children excepted groups
But for the rarest, be severed.

So forgive my crazy sided heart,
It's not for less than want of love
That serious gift not all are given a part.
