Continue the celebration And release the balloon. All this cotton candy Dissolved too soon. Worry for something transient Like the finger to the moon. The worst of it is over Like the bandage Swiftly torn free. Slowly racing through the years All this action wears away. We are still at the carnival Stuck on the… Continue reading Carnival
Listen as I stir in my sleep. I dream that a blaze All consuming Swallows us up into ash. Repeating ad infinitum. It is the feint sun Coming ever closer Like a comet Coming to cleanse our sins To see the beginning once again. I do not irrationally fear dreams, But their growing lucidity Makes… Continue reading More On Dreaming
I am a traveler in a tunnel Minding my steps, Feeling a darkened space. Whistling a tune Down through winds That carry time. This is the way of my current mind, But I fear that I am circling As I dizzy from spinning. Lovers on life’s wheel Find themselves Nauseous yet grinning. As for me,… Continue reading No Longer Wrought
Today I outlined the memories Of a forgotten childhood And came across an accidental discovery. Down an open field I roamed. Cutting down dandelions, Aimlessly wandering, Escaping my responsibilities. I walked further, seen by a deer huddled alone. I paused frightened. Only moments ago I seemed so certain of my place.

As the flames rise, so do you grow. Out of your mouth the words come clearer. Your philosophy,… Continue reading Onyx
Tell me what you see at the feast of life. Is it exclusively exquisite? Does it drip when you bite A hot golden ooze Gilding all around you? To that short sighted Egotistical mindset It will not matter when the feast ceases. It is there in your mind; A rejection A cruelness An unwanted feeling.… Continue reading A Cruelness
I have nothing to say Only this: Words are tart. Why the furrowed brow? Why the feigned interest? Ontological arguments Keep spinning though my head Because the soul is revealed Within and without nature. And I believe my own puzzled truths.
Looking over the idea of being in love I find that we have abandoned the thought Of being alive to favor the infinite possibilities Of gracing a lonely being with hope to jump start The quasi-lifeless soul into a blooming world. Alone he questions many things. Most of all his existence. And he waits unanswered… Continue reading He Questions Many Things
Faceless formless ghosts. Not even an archetype. Just boogeymen standing silent. They are a reflection of rule Denying a reality simple and honest Down to the point of redefining love. Guiding naked and silent dreams Showing us what heroes and gods Pave the way for millennia. They nudge we children into the fold And some… Continue reading They
