When eyes
remain closed
The future
— uncast

...A hateful dance, a twisted reel,
Where judgment's call is sharp as steel.

...I contemplate the bobber on the water.
It is as still as a friend’s prayer at meeting.
Connected to this moment by monofilament
I sit as if I were asleep.

Waiting On Forever

...Winter days take hold
 keeping us hostage to the chill and cold
 in forgotten youth of early spring
 leaves us only time on which to cling;
the shadows dark and gray
 inch thru the windy rain an...

Fantasy Escapes

...No clock can lay claim
  to the moment untimed

Though hands finely set
  still a mystery divine

Each tick plays a cadence
  to what is now past

But what of the future

A haze, a darkness thou has cast over these childish eyes.

...When will these eyes be blessed to surely see
     A moments scene uncast to me before
     Lights last flicker yet born to be of thee

listen to the beat of our wings

for the secret of its strength.

In a lane with only one speed-fast,
With a direction of your own to become someone,
A twist of hope and faith will get the job done.
With different sounds that ...
