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

The Electrician Without A License

There’s an  
Energy tag on my big toe 
“Zapped to death:” it says 
I’m a “John Doe” 
A lightening bolt 
Sent my soul a jolt 
Into the next dimension 
Permanently disabled and 
Unable to be grounded, you see 
Living life on the edge can be fatal 
I don’t even know who I am 
I

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.

When they failed black kids without homes

Her hair stood out
Reaching for the skies
Wishing on every star at night
Someone would hear her cries
Her need to have a life she doesn't just have to survive 

The chaos of hair confused
Unsure how to keep it or what to do
She is the only one in the room
That had hair that flew 
Just a child without

Games Without Values

Last year we played with steady ground,
one rule for all, the truth was found.
No favoured few, no shadow deal,
just work and heart - the common seal,
and every voice could claim their name.

Our coach back then, from distant shore,
taught more than drills - he taught us more:
that trust is built on equal weight,
and discipline decides our

A heart without tomorrow

My love garden remains unweeded,
Each planted flower slowly wilting.
A shadow spreads across my sunlight,
And a storm lingers without rainfall.

Sad teardrops fall from my broken heart,
No blood shed, yet my worlds fall apart.
Agony, sorrow, deep dejection—
Reflections in my shattered mirror.

My tear burns hot enough to bake bread,
Depression drapes a cloak on my head.
Love tortures like a

Standing without support

there is a light that lights the sun
that which exists beyond space-time
with this source when we become one
there remain no mountains to climb

prior to thought and heart’s intent
playful spontaneous instinct 
to the will of God grants consent 
that the light of Self be love inked

attention thus focused within
power held at a stillness point
breath by breath

Peace Without You

Today I learned
that being me
always here for you,
always yours in intimacy
was never enough.
I did not give you
the peace your soul was searching for.

It shatters my heart…
how did we come to this?
I learned today
you were looking for comfort
in someone else’s words,
and all this time
I thought I was your world.

Have I taken you for granted?
Was it my

Life without you

Life Without You

Life without you 
in cold desert sand,
I walk without shadow,
the sun too tired to care.

Alone in the place I used to know,
walls whisper your name in cracks and corners,
but you never answer.
Silence moved in where your voice used to be.

The rooms are getting smaller,
the windows won’t open,
time has folded in on itself 
only

Love That Left Without Goodbye

There are two days I know
Yesterday and today 
Yesterday laid the cross I bear
Cross I dared not to wear
Forever we stay, they say,
But the thorns stares away
In the pasture last known to stray,
Cradle land, a means to an end 

Forgive me if I stray to forever land 
For my kin, I bared my soul to

You’d be dead without me

Sophomore year, arguably one of the worst years in a teenage life.
I met you when i was at my lowest, innocence being challenged.
You preyed on that.
You broke me in so many ways you refuse to see.
I saved you, in my bathroom, throw up from a Percocet all over you.
I held you, i comforted you, i

Yours without having you

Yours Without Having You"

As solitude surrounds me,
I still feel the whispers...
of your presence.
Soft.
Haunting.
Like a memory...
not yet made.

In a fleeting moment of joy,
you hush my fears.
You stir…
a calm I never knew lived in me.

Then
An epiphany strikes.
Like the sun,
piercing
my skin.
Sudden.
Warm.
Unforgettable.

But still
a deep sadness lingers
in my soul.
Because I know...
I can never
call you mine.

Resilience?
Baby…
it slips through my fingers
like smoke.
I

Where would I be without you?

my body and my heart are fragile brittle mostly broken
your visit and your kindness mean the world to me
you sing your song and the healing of my soul begins

Without Fear

It’s the darkness, flooding the silent room
A still so bitter it flows, splashing fears
Weary as the moments I would never presume
Pierce the heart with feelings, frantic tears

It’s the night, breathing in echoes of anxiety
Murmuring shadows who still the soul
Wiping out the silhouettes of notoriety 
Following the screams of a dread’s control

It’s the dusk, ending twilight’s
