Like a dam On the verge of ruin Groaning in the swell Of heartache and tribulation Inching close To the sorrowful truth Of unwavering desolation It all rushes forth At fortitude’s quick demise As the foaming currents rage Reveling and thrashing In new found liberation Beneath confession’s might I crumble with haste Undone by frigid…

The high tide Of restless hearts Lay claim to Parisian roads Stirring beneath The lantern’s glare The glowing guardian For wayward passersby Bonne nuit mes amis Trudge on with caution Gracefully, gallantly, and swift As tavern’s toll Like a Sunday overture Bid farewell And defer To the folds of night

I evade the falling fragments In the prologue of reveries As I brace for solid ground And the agony I’ll surely meet Shards glitter without care Brazen in their fall Torn from the panes That once cradled their sheen Gaping windows Peer helplessly From above At the sinking spectacle The mindless The wasteful Unraveling And…

Torrential havoc Gushes violently From every sweltering pore Dry words escape Fleeing the loom of inferno As the perils of the mind Stampede beneath my flesh Like frantic refugees Streaming fearfully From the fervid pulse of war With eyes fixed forward I let them take flight As the towering flames Envelope,ravage And rage among the…

Savagely carved And minced to uselessness I remain, a souring heap With vitals lumbering Toward the arms of sure decay Beneath the infernal rage Of the high cart wheeling sun My flesh singes away Blistering in the scourge Of my foolish stagnation Paralyzed My existence boils Sprawled hopelessly To endure Submissively and frail No complaints…
