Do I have the room For the clutter of another wrecked soul Miles off in their own Dissolving fever-dream? – Do I harbor the fight To quench the fires of their war-torn mind To dive nightly Through their full heart of sorrows? – Do I bear the same weight Of a torturous desire, The will…

Safe from sorrow In my own flawed flesh and bones The day’s warmth carries me Into the cool and blue dusk – It’s been a plentiful day A savored and colorful feast One I’ll happily relive In many distant tomorrows – Safe for now In my own patchwork of scars Rivers trail through my mind…

Behind the cooled footsteps of a giant In the aftershock and silence He is paces away But always roams out of reach – Every crater left behind Is a living landmark Pressed deep into the reveries Of the vagabonds he guides – They change shape overtime Through riptides they endure Forever stark in the…
