Many Moons

...Echo of distant cries,
quadruped steps deepening into dusk—
wind folding the earth’s breath.
Craftsman of the spider web,
seas of lightning possessing the sky.

Guardian of the other side,

Poetic Silence, for Silent One

...When poetic silence  , 
spoke to me
through midnight violence,  
it kept my restless heart calm~
as I was hypnotized in a trance,  
waltzing sleeplessly  
on an island so reckless, 
The soothi...

Ode to NYC

...I gave my heart away to you
On the night that new year drew
The Sinatra chimes and yellow vines
Sleeplessly anew

City of dreams, built on piano keys
And indie structures melodies
I left my he...

If I could present a world or build an empire
It would be so easy to secretly conspire
In a way that you would not find hard to admire

I Weep For You

...The morons have no heart,
they are heartless. 
In the left side of their brain,
nothing is right.
In the right side of their brain, 
nothing is left. 
That's why they use their
stony heart to ...

I'm in a deep sleep regardless
Of what you say thotlessly 
Damage the distress in progress
You sent me letters and emails
Thank you...I'd like to say Thank You
Every time I...

An awkward silence takes flight 
From those fleeting moments of joy
You see tricks that deceive, tricks of sleight

The lights are bright and they're scream...

   and in the straining double bandoliers' hump

Passed Out

...Toot, toot goes the train.
Jump, jump goes the brain.
Moved to a new house.
Old one had a mouse.
Sometimes change is good.

It's all the same!
Play the sleep game!

INSOMNIAC!
