Living Fear
It is only when
You no longer
Fear death that
You finally start
Grasping for life
It is only when
You no longer
Fear death that
You finally start

cricket serenade
a sky choked
with the smoke of neighboring states
leaving a canvas of sullen grey
no stars above to guide my feet
just a choir of crickets
my muffled mind and me
making our way through lifting night
passing through halos of streetlamps
where moths flutter around the light
and webs cross paths
but can’t be seen
eyes ever on the shadows
alone with my thoughts
gossiping trails left behind
of acorn crumbles and scattered leaves
a sky choked
with the smoke of neighboring states
leaving a canvas of sullen grey
no stars above to guide my feet
just a choir of crickets
my muffled mind and me
making our way through lifting night
passing through halos of streetlamps
where moths flutter around the light
and webs cross paths
but can’t be seen
eyes ever on the shadows
alone with my thoughts
gossiping trails left behind
of acorn crumbles and scattered leaves

Spoiled
dip fingers into years of aged vermillion,
have your palate salivate & mouth purse
convulse & writhe when you
taste all of the pain
with an ever present burn
equal to my debilitating reflux; it’s
bubbling, making me
constantly nauseous
& i’m dry heaving profusely
having settled & been
surrounded by the bitter stench of you
surpassing far beyond the expiration date
dip fingers into years of aged vermillion,
have your palate salivate & mouth purse
convulse & writhe when you

with an ever present burn

& i’m dry heaving profusely

pigeon man
laugh at him overtaking
in a rush to break free
all you do is itch and think
shit for brains
remember tyson
pigeon man
pinpoint passion took you by surprise
the sound of beating wings
flying fists whooping the air
humble prayers
simply summons speed
agility and home

Heavy Heart
My heart is heavy from a loss
I lost myself when I lost you.
Each day passes without you here
I try to get over what I fear.
Who will I lose next time I blink
How much more will my heart sink?
How much more pain can I endore?
I can't take this pain anymore.
My heart has sunk down low
As low as I will let it go.
It's time to stop all the pain
Before I lose my mind!

As low as I will let it go.
It's time to stop all the pain
Before I lose my mind!

Ancient Beauty
Arouse your soul,you will feel me,
You are not all alone,
My Nuclear launcher is staring at your eyes,
My secret feelings are growing in size,
Some strong radiation has been shooting to my side,
Because your eyes are the beautiful place,
I called it " Ray's sunshine",
A hot rays are hitting to Ray's eyes,
You are standing other side of aisle,
Here I am counting the glare of your eyes,
You are the beauty of ancient skies,
One day miracles happen in your killing smile,
My thoughts and her smile one day will be compile.

Quando la struttura è morta
when structure is dead
nothing defines the outlines
where mem'ry exists
escaping beyond borders
beyond life where we find truth
you slumber deeply
between my sleeplessness as
night passes over
never touched before, nor now
and not endlessly later
A Rensaku = linked Tanka
Title in Italian means "When the structure is dead".

Endless
The night seemed never ending
Lonely, dark, cold
She yearned for the light for so long, thinking the sun would never rise upon her
And that warmth would never touch her
But as the sun finally rose, she turned and closed the shade, embracing the endless night
For it was all she knew
