Sharing a thought
Is not best spoken in a passionate language
It is not best written on an aesthetic scroll

As my ink spills I can’t float
I find myself almost submerged in my verbose outrage
I hang on to...Read More

When I feel empty
And the world gets hefty
I write to fill up the emptiness

When the truth is like a mystery
Explained by a spiritual verity
I write to remember the truth

When joy is too short for revelry
Lurking by the corners is misery

I  love the singinng silence as I muse

Would not mind being caught in middle,
Of serenade played on violin or a fiddle;
People dancing;
Others romancing;
Thanked God for receiving an acquittal.

And realized,
Plagiarized,
Even if sinner or a sourpuss.

I wish I could write you a heartfelt song,

The storm unleashed
Rages on;
The sound and fury
Instils fear.
Where are the seafarers?
Those standing on the beach ask  
Without urgency to know.

And dreamily run our fingers
In the wet sand;
There...Read More

Or Would We?

Oh, Lord, I think we need a magic knob
that's somewhere on one arm discreetly placed.

At this time, we'd adjust our hidden disc,
permitting us to live another’s woe

With a body trembling in hunger and fatigue
With an uncertain mind not ready for anything...Read More

but my identity you mistake,
I’m Lemmy from Motorhead,

Under the silvery moon light
And the starry night sky so bright
Singing a melodious song to the maiden of his heart.
