What the Storm Splayed and Spared

...
Dust taints scent of rain
the wind wrenches gate ajar
lightning splits the clouds—
grime streaks down marble headstones,
as silver names bleed deep red

bouquets torn and flung
petals smashe...

The Oath

...There’s a wildness in you
Burning like the desert sand
It taints a man’s blood

A fierce promise in your eyes
More glorious than sunset over the mountain
It defies me to say ‘no’

But that’s ...

Silence

...Silence is the absence of energy
No vibration, movement, or synergy
Nature muted, physics frozen
Molecular loss of motion

Stillness, cessation, yet more
Peaceful quiet we adore
Or the calm be...

Point of No Return

...
A crescent moon dangles in the distance,
whilst meteors jet across Prussian blue heavens,
leaving trails of grey ash in their wake.
An abnormal, elongated silence creeps through threadbare t...

Heaven Is Too Hot And Hell is Too cold

...
Burned my wings on a neon sun,

Too bright to love, too fierce to run.

Angels talk like kings of war,

Locked in gold behind white doors.

I wore the light but it felt like chains,

Swee...

The Trumpet of Parrots

...
If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor – Desmond Tutu

The Trumpet of Parrots

Patriots rally to the trumpet sound,
its blare echoes the lies ...

I fear the closets fuzzy things

...I fear the closets fuzzy things
Unseen thoughts with distant stings
Dreams soft whispering breezes bring
To calm the demons to which I cling

For life has had its way with me
It taints the beau...

Of Love

...
Of Love
A feeling that seeps through you,
Searching—
For, as people claim, the heart.
But don’t you feel
It’s shackled, chained, and bound?
But—
People.
People.
These puppets of fate,

Dust Quells What Time Tells

...Dust coats mementos in treasure trove
In a veil that palls recall with a shroud.
It dims the past with repast of neglect,
That taints memories with fading, settling light.
Echoes become fainter, ...

A Plea to Forgotten Ties

...Individualistic philanthropy is a virtue to a spark, 
A charred ember of your simmering soul, 
Before me are those who surround my being, 
My subconscious is present as I often drown myself to bec...

Dueling Sleep

...I sleep for minutes at a time 
And wake up with more on my mind 
It’s not enough to be king of it all
When you see how quickly you’ll fall
Can you feel the weight of the sea 
As the waves crash ...

COVID My Bungholio

...Probably not my first battleground with this nasty bug
Still haven't tested positive after many attempts
But I know I have it now
False negatives or perhaps it's just my luck
I'm still kicking my...

Talk like adults, child-like

...When debate gets personal and inflamed,
You cry: 'Why can't you talk like an adult?'
'Why can't you engage in adult conversation,
