Get rid of the ice, pills and hash.
I wouldn’t hide your stash.
Down the toilet it would go.
If I were your love, if it were so.

I’d lock the door, hide the key. 
We’d do it together...

Subsidence

...The memory of yesterday is 
clanging, 
Competing against the sweet 
and bitter tastes of the present.
While sailing against the giant waves of life.

Small scaly creatures and stones sliced toes like knives but

Making its way around the sun again

Engulfing all in its guidance,
A paradise lost in subsidence.

As the will of the stars,
Enlightening each on whom it befalls,

Of sibilant sea waves shaping
sandy shorelines, beckoning my
Soul’s return whence it came
With every endless subsidence.
Like a giant magnet it draws
Me toward its ...

Road Traveled Promise

...The road less traveled is with our savior and king.
His selflessness for his life, made the Angels’ sing.
Within his life as told, he traveled many roads.
