Dead End
When do flowers no longer bloom and the sea's stop touching the shore. Light from the heaven's fail to shine and the birds shall sing no more. Innocent's of children no longer play as time like a candle melts away. Fleeting are the moments we get to spend and death is the reason it all does end....

The End Game
The downhill slope I'm on that side, less time remaining of life's wild ride. Don't know the answer to when it ends, for if I did might change the spend. Have had my share of ups and downs, with smiles a many but sometimes frowns. This life has taught me it's a complex game, while our rules may differ we all end the same....

How To Disappear Without Dying
Step one Smile like stitches not for joy Just tight enough to hold you in The kind of smile that never aches But keeps your mouth from spilling Step two Speak after everyone has left Let words fall where no one looks Your voice belongs to empty rooms Where no one asks or stays too long Step three Move quiet through morning fog Become the blur behind...

As I stand here looking in the mirror at the woman looking back at me, it’s there written in her eyes all the secrets that her mind and heart keeps It’s written all over the lines on her once beautiful face, the toll that the stress has caused over the years from all of her shame,...

Premium Member Naive Faith
In my early years I possessed this naive faith, and I believed all that the Bible saith: often to a fault, it came from a place of innocent faith; my life was simplistic with trust. By fourteen I stopped expecting people...

He Shall Be Called
A Name “His name shall be called…” A great statement of His glory. Yet immediately we reason, Let’s compare it to your story. Many problems loom large. Deafening sound takes the stage. Often wronged in the attempts. Your own advice, you are the sage. We’re hard at life, trying To keep...

Premium Member WASHED AWAY BY THE TIDE
WASHED AWAY BY THE TIDE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I see the vestiges of yesterday, echoes of mistakes, like footprints in the sand, that the time of time washed away. Every mistake, is like a grain of sand on the beach, a sandcastle of errors, mistakes that the tide of time washes away. the wind of self-forgiveness pulls me up, propelling me beyond the limits of mistakes I...

Why the Shadow Departed
Have you ever stood still— noticing the sudden absence of what once followed you everywhere? We think we know the reason. We stitch guesses into tidy shapes, as if they could fill the hollow left behind. But truth is slippery— most times, we can’t hold it at all. We are meant to lift each other, not pile stones in the way of someone else’s climb. So— gentleness can outlast...

Premium Member A Journey Without A Goal
(“Rainbow Body” detail, 2018, original encaustic) A Journey Without A Goal The path to enlightenment is a wondrous And delightfully paradoxical thing! It is complex and yet simple, Endless and yet immediate. The problem is it is never us who becomes enlightened, Since enlightenment is a reunification With what has never been divided, And so the journey then becomes nothing but a dream. What...

FRAGILE VESSEL ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Poem written for and submitted to “Broken But Bold Enough to Bounce Back” Poetry Contest, Anoucheka Gangabissoon, sponsor, August 11, 2025. They gathered like shadows, the character assassins~ their whispers their weapons, their glances a silent judgment, truth twisted to fit their narrative, a caricature of my spirit painted in the hues of malice.

When I gave beggar a coin
A beggar grabbed my hand and cried for some spare change. At first, I offered him a sweet memory of food or a tasteless sip of divine water, but he asked for money. I had a heavy coin and gave it to him. I wondered why he took only the money, and when he saw it, he immediately...
