Poet Introduction
I never liked poetry or didn't like poetry and I still don't sometimes but DU is different, vibrant, primal, raw, and sublime. My writing has become an amazing tool for self discovery, growth, and healing. Peace love mirth

War
a sliver of light in the dark
a flame alive
sweet primal fire
bending and twisting
bent and twisted
always changing
yet always the same
burning low and forgotten
becoming a bonfire of all we forgot
this our anchor to the heavens
and our reminder of hell
finding logic in insanity
and sanity in our madness
a fragile equilibrium
of a mirror cracked in two
ego and soul at war
cherishing lust and love
worshipping pain to make us whole
we exist outside of time
our inner glow diffracting
distracting ...

A Simple Prayer
find something to get mad about
and something to laugh about
look for diamonds in the rain
just to see them shatter on the ground
in a million rainbows of light
find someone you're mad about
and laugh with someone you care about
rediscovering love in the morning sun
if you're lucky you'll love a witch
dark spells and blinding light
living just for today
in an endless moment in time
find a feral spirit to challenge and caress you
a butterfly held in the palm of your hand
then let your love go
and watch as love returns ...

The I of the Storm
in the cyclone of the mind
and center of the eye of time
souls turns inside out
our pasts exposed
as futures supposed
and life disposed
all my sins are known
life unfolds in chaos and dismay
seeking solace in a new day
traveling at the speed of light
hope brings clarity to the night
and is carried on the rays of the sun
rebirth comes with the dawn
and renewal of the spirit
finding something true
hope lives eternal
and we all
deserve
to
be
loved
and center of the eye of time
souls turns inside out
our pasts exposed
as futures supposed
and life disposed
all my sins are known
life unfolds in chaos and dismay
seeking solace in a new day
traveling at the speed of light
hope brings clarity to the night
and is carried on the rays of the sun
rebirth comes with the dawn
and renewal of the spirit
finding something true
hope lives eternal
and we all
deserve
to
be
loved

Mile by Mile
Only the stars know my scars
painful memories that are ours
we hide them with a smile
burdens carried mile after mile
unbent before God's trials
the stars to witness this holy mess
with our burdens we are truly blessed
finding faith in God's caress
painful memories that are ours
we hide them with a smile
burdens carried mile after mile
unbent before God's trials
the stars to witness this holy mess
with our burdens we are truly blessed
finding faith in God's caress

Past, Present, and Future
Same blood, same bone
hands unchanged
but I do not recognize this face
and everything has changed
the mirror lies of what it sees
lies of what is now
while dreaming of future deeds
this is not the man I meant to be
this stranger in my skin
when past and present collide
only the future as my guide
a beckoning siren's song
to find all I've lost
as I'm engulfed in a flames
a fire that burns yet leaves no scars
the spark of creation in my soul
a living flame that no one sees
walking among the blind
refusing...

Burdens
Lay your burdens down
they are not worth your frown
I will shoulder your grief
for however brief
and dry your wings
of the tears that cling
You are loved beyond your fears
for all eternity love endures
with words and rhyme
we seek immortality
that we might find in time
that love has always been waiting
for you and I
they are not worth your frown
I will shoulder your grief
for however brief
and dry your wings
of the tears that cling
You are loved beyond your fears
for all eternity love endures
with words and rhyme
we seek immortality
that we might find in time
that love has always been waiting
for you and I

Dark Dreaming
powerless to resist
unable to desist
lines flow bold
on these pages I hold
words of dark dreaming
so innocent seeming
yet written in blood
now trapped in a flood
these my phantasies
dark alchemies
speaking blasphemies
that opens a door
for the next lines of prose
unwillingly composed
the spell now complete
with lines of deceit
the price my soul
has always been the goal
to write in rhythm and rhyme
with these my words
reality blurs
to live my phantasies
and dream...

How dimples saved my soul
hidden dark and deep
secret thoughts do creep
on envy and greed and jealousy they feed
my weaknesses the germinating seeds
from which this darkness grows
and my ego sows
long have I hunted
and confronted
this cowering Id inside
at last finding a weapon I cried
with my love of an unearthly witch
daughter of Lilith
a spirit of darkness and light
finding passion in the deep of night
this my madness unfolds
and my story is told
were once I...

Remember
hating the fear
we hate out of fear
objectifying
denying
and crying
for what we can't control
as if - we were the only soul
calling our desires whores
with images of fucking on the floor
we find solace in bed
thinking our fears are dead
reviling
and defiling
temptations so beguiling
so much for the inhumanity of man
pleasure becomes pain
forgetfulness gained
using deflections
and erections
to hide the child inside
fear becomes lust
ENOUGH!
enough of living in fear
from the sins...

Simple Words
wearing a veil
setting sail
on humanity's homogenous seas
life in denial
ruled by a sundial
screaming behind our smiles
dehumanizing
bile rising
desperately despising
this is not the way
viewing our lives with dismay
co-existing
stomach twisting
dreams persisting
for something so much more
an open door
and a life filled with love
falling into a trance
with just a glance
one last chance
to see if we have a soul
losing control
why is it so hard to say
these simple words
I ...

How to Barbeque a Witch
**** Step one ******
all great recipes start with anticipation
with a little romance
a bit of love
and long slow simmering walks
sunsets and spicy banter
a little sarcasm as an option
but I will leave that is up to you
****** Step two *****
now bring everything up to a boil
degree by slow degree
"is it getting warm in here?"
"no my lovely witch, let me take your cloak"
holding hands with the gentlest touch
delicate strokes inside her wrist
chase the hair away from her face
exposing her arching...
