Why
I spent so many lonely days,
many even lonelier nights,
asking of myself
the whys and wherefores
of this terrible life.
To suffer such ignoble pains,
to be unjustly accused
of things I had not done.
I searched and sought
for reasons unknown.
Did I deserve such a life?
Or should I count the blessings,
a handful of good times?
Should I be content
with what...

Last To AskFirst it came like progress, cold and clean,
With circuits bright and wires unseen.
It took our hands from honest toil,
Turned bread and sweat to data spoil.
Then vanished choice beneath the screen,
Where algorithms picked what dreams had been.
We traded sleep for sleepless feeds,
And fed the dark on silent needs.
Now history flickers on the glass—
A question shaped like...

A Scroll Of Unseen WatersThe Scroll Of Unseen Waters
Come, you who carry fire in your bones and salt in your tears…?
Children of the drum, the dusk, the dust, and the dawn…?
From mountain root to river vein… the land remembers one song…
But the cup that overflows can never be filled…?
And the tongue that speaks before listening forgets the...

Let Me Say My Goodbyes At The End of a Long Summer's DayLet Me Say My Goodbyes At the End of a Long Summer's Day
Let me say my Goodbyes at the end of a long Summer's day,
When the light lays long and the breeze is soft
When the wheeling birds hold the sky aloft
While the Summer's sweet warmth still holds its sway,
While the Sun's strong magic yet stills...

My Tribute to Meir Kahane
Meir Kahane, a visionary, warned us all
Yet far too few heeded his call
Labeled a ‘firebrand’ by all the elites
His message understood by his enemies in the...

NEITHER LUCID NOR BLURRED
Surrounded by immortal elders at the at the door to heaven
I hear a voice of silence whispering in a solemnly tone.
That we have been blinded by the aesthetic fallacy
Planted hemlock leading to eternal mortal as a price
A warning from moses' will be witnessed before it's time to rise
I'm traumatic and terrified, I close my...

edgily creeping sideways like a crab,
watching me, ...

Devil's oceanIm hearing voices in my head,
all muffled is the sound
Can't make out the words they've said,
Yet I'm surely set to drown.
Plug my ears to disrupt the waves,
As torturous tides begin to pull me in.
Lost within these endless caves.
From chaos, a life of sin.
Riptides calling me further out,
Into a sea of endless despair.
Nothing attempted; not...

Superstition by ChanceAs I run away from the chains, not a single one of my principles drifted
out of my mind, I know what's right and what's wrong for me
I can take actions by chance and leaps of faith
I escaped from the herd, I do not take revenge but I choose to stay calm
Resentment is control,...

Born Of Fire and RainHe was reborn & rebuilt
brick by brick from
casted stones
meant to destroy
A heavenly construction approved
by the most high
employed angels from every
corner & angle
high to low
The convoy driven by unseen
forces came in droves
remorseless in their destruction
& unmoved by any attempt
to dismantle
No one holds a candle to his flame
for it burns like earth's core
& he's...

Let's have a conversation
Let's connect our hearts and minds
Let's elevate our entwined souls
Let's be compassionate and kind
Let our infinite love inspire us
Let our cups fill to overflowing
Let us be the love and light
Let us spread joy to every home

Protection TreeThere will never be
A story told
That does not measure
Hope so old
As in this tree
With shading bow
As here I sit
In writing now
For in this ancient
Solid form
That buries deep
Under the norm
Of human treadmill
Feet that scurry
A wisdom lies
Below the flurry
Such gnarly skin
Yet seasoned clothes
A message tall
This tree bestows
For those with eyes
For those with ears
A whisper to...
