The ever-baying darkness Cradles me in its fear In the cloak of boundless quivering In the anguish propelled To the high glittering heavens The night wheels along My worn and tattered flesh Cruelly sent stirring Until sunlight roars Restored to its prime Beneath the throes Of curtains of black I writhe and dissolve In the…

In the thick of jet exhausts As trends plume And cleave the adoring clouds I cling to ease Root firmly in bliss At peace with all I am And all I strive to be Before the tracks That scar dormant roads I trudge faithfully Bound only To an oath of defiance Beneath the Swirl The…

Like spent shell casings Mindlessly strewn Deflowered and simmering Billowing with plumes of unrest Bygone worlds, linger In the stagnant seas of kin Glittering hopelessly Until their sparks Drift and dwindle unseen Waves of the foregone Remain As shadowy forebearers As festering heaps of scrap The multitudes I’ve dispatched with pride Have deferred to death…

Bereft of all sound I weave without care Through the mournful bends Of carnage and ruin Undeterred By the fuming wreckage The merciless skewering Of the high, brazen heavens Despair eludes me In this gradual stride Through the great sprawl of heartache Bleeding, its plumes of black All I retain Are the timid wisps of…

All boxed up In a den of misanthropy My hallowed cave Of simmering discontent I drift sullen And greet reveries with fervor Grateful to the abstract The weightless Out-of-body twirl Far away From slow burning kin As they shrink day to day In their agonizing refrains Gracious solitude Blurs my perceptions Shredded to bits Into…

Amidst the dry heave This ancient scourge I yearn and implore For the trying winds of old Amidst present strife I turn away For the frostbitten days That unmerciful cold For the beckoning sway Of a wind chime’s refrain Their resilient toll Is sure to remain I’m swift to recede Quick to recall The timid…
