 A thousand bees never settling down,
       buzzed within his head.
    Their confused drone, into a ruffled rumble grew,

Tribute To Ozzy Osbourne

The night was torn with a silver cry,
A voice like thunder’s 
The world grew dim, the velvet black
Enfolded him and gave him back
A crown of thorns and iron flame,

Ignoring truth disguised behind your fear,

Nothing Like A Thank you

...For the favor you did but never let me forget,
for the “no pressure” laced with regret.
for every “no big deal” that came with fine print,

Peter Periwinkle

...“Peter Periwinkle had a car accident,”
my brother said,

In a tangle of thoughts
Briar thick thorny thoughts

Debris Of Decrepit Heart

“The fervent garden grieves as the frail flowers called love 
enwrap the shards of broken heart” – Quote by poet 


The rhapsody of rainbow morphs into morose mélange,

It ain’t heavy it’s my boulder

boulder, marble-sized these days
And Ozymandias’ plaque,
