Rainy Day
The rain this morning is a bond
A wet shadow breaks down her face
They, the skies — drip in her blue blood
The rain this morning is a bond
For outstretched palm is bitten some,
A lifetime within the cloud's chase —
The rain this morning is a bond
A wet shadow breaks down her face....

Mountain Strain
Mountains sew the sky beneath clouds
In a blue dress, uncommon bride —
Those peaks a pressure seems to shroud;
Mountains sew the sky beneath clouds
With no consciousness of ~her crown~ —
The heat of rain cleancut as white,
Mountains sew the sky beneath clouds
In a blue dress, uncommon bride....

Sold Out Star Wars TributeWalking to the film in tandem,
sold it out for opening night.
Fanboys and girls define fandom
walking to the film in tandem.
That iconic phrase 'Rebel Scum'
meant to be under marquee light.
Walking to the film in tandem,
sold it out for opening night....

No Longer WelcomeForced to give up everything when you died
I was no longer welcome at home
Barely ate, not a penny set aside
Forced to give up everything when you died
Had to leave all my belongings behind
Nowhere to go, from motel to shelter I roamed
Forced to give up everything when you died
I was no longer welcome at home...

Driving Wheels, Crosses On The Side Of The Road
Crosses on the side of the road;
Belief in passengers goes by —
Where wrecked light within flowers grow,
Crosses on the side of the road
That besides the glass window hold,
A memory's attest to time —
Crosses on the side of the road,
Belief in passengers goes by —

To Dream in Binary and Bits I.
To dream in binary and bits,
then copy, send with virus-like,
electronic, image file hits.
To dream in binary and bits,
takes computer programming wits.
Like Lawnmower Man, Musk's god-like:
but Elon's prone to enraged fits,
when Teslas burn by fiery blitz.
II.
A.I. Chatbots, like Elon's Grok,
have smarter...

On One Cloudless Day I.
One cloudless day, without spring shower
or monsoon, angels made their stand;
and conjured otherworldly power,
one cloudless day, without spring shower.
When God chose me that fateful hour,
as I held lightning in my hand,
that cloudless day without spring shower,
I was marked for evil to devour.
II.
Though crucified, reviled by...

The Eternal Question: God, No God, Maybe GodPrideful life hides truths of plain sight.
Isn't God as Nature has revealed?
What chaos conceives lovely light?
Prideful life hides truths of plain sight.
Save Barabbas; admit our plight:
carnal desserts have faith concealed.
Pride of life hides truths in plain sight.
God Is, as our Faith has revealed....

In the Sand Box of TimeTime’s long strands, a play box of sand.
Young & strong, won’t spare a thought.
Taut flesh frowns on a wrinkled hand.
Time’s long strands, a play box of sand.
Isn't a head that remembers how to stand
better than a head alone, black in each spot?
Time’s long strands, a play box of sand. ...

Sui GenerisI will tip my hat to your taste,
sui generis that mean flavor.
Not finishing is such a waste,
I will tip my hat to your taste.
A sin it is to remain chaste,
dainty morsels and I quiver.
I will tip my hat to your taste,
sui generis that mean flavor....

trying mirror
The window glass is a new look —
Curtains shy against the pane's ribs.
A reflection of me she took
By thermal eyes' surface wires shook
Where comeback fire, bottomless stood.
My face like the glass, Stygian
The window glass is a new look —
Curtains shy against the pane's ribs.

Their LoveTheir love was just a dream
in the cosmic stardust light
though it really did seem
their love was just a dream
Underneath the moons beam
they would share delight
Their love was just a dream
in the cosmic stardust light.

BombshellThere’s no explanation to tell,
this girl simply outgrew a ride;
I’m hopping off the carousel,
there’s no explanation to tell;
Athirst awaiting a bombshell,
I don’t have anything to hide;
There’s no explanation to tell,
this girl simply outgrew a ride....

The Court AppearanceCan I testify?,
Or would better be a lie.
No love is shown for his repeated crime.
Can I testify?
The gallows lurk for Destiny's dark climb.
Behold, the clock is running out of time.
Can I testify?,
Or would better be a lie.

One Existential Frost
The clock with wings goes up and down.
She sleeps only with backwards time.
The glass circle's bridle around
Her fishtail eyes where dark abounds.
Within the floor, she feels the pound —
Grandfather's face in nighttime shines.
The clock with wings goes up and down.
She sleeps only with backwards time....
