Alive in a rising cloud The spell cast on me Pushed onward, forsaken By the soft sighing spring – Above the churchyards Filled with the shades of the bereaved I watch their wild colors sink Into shade and sorrow – So the mad dream fades From my heart at last – So the mad…

Midnight stares through some Tearing open old scars To watch them sprawl Blossoming in red – The quiet hours are flooded With the groans of the fallen Heaped in tatters Frozen in madness – Too burdened to float on With sweet reveries The night turns to ash Smoke encircles their worlds – Silence tears through…

Who will survive in this hell of our own design? Unshaken, unscathed In a forefather’s dream ~ The curses walled within us rise Into a scalding war cry As sirens scream and harmonize Through the streets’ empty sighs ~ A nation bleeds away Blotting out the white stars Burying the way home From this wilderness…

Cut down to a field of stumps I breathe ashen songs Uprooted, Sailing on a mortal wind ~ Violence pangs within Beyond the night’s golden pyres Still the hellfire falls From a downcast smile ~ And still I tremble haunted By an exodus of shadows Their prey not far From their thunderous strides ~…

Forever framed in my mind Are the flowing colors, Coursing through the city Through the neon-blazed dusk ~ Along with every curse and complaint sung out Into the steam of summer nights Before their parched words combust ~ Even fists swung in rage The moving parts of humankind The strained words lovers leave Before…

Floating through a quiet space Beyond the rumbling salvos Perched high in the mountains Far away and at ease ~ Forgotten skylines glow And roar infernal, The enclosing ring Of grieving embers ~ Wailing up the steep walls Of this parcel of Eden Are the hollow hearts of mothers Who roam from their beloveds ~…

Deflated in the aftermath Of my selfish struggle This war scorches on Raising plumes of denial ~ For the kind eyes of strangers The stray remarks of travelers, The graze of their affections Feed an ever burning sorrow ~ I hold on to every praise Through the onslaught of memory When the outer world is…
