Poet Introduction
Inlak'esh in these dark times be the light my friend its all a game we play after all,
Lone Pine
Trees ancient sentinels
guardians standing tall
reminders to time
If a tree falls
in an empty forest
does it make a sound
Sad is the day
when a lone pine dies
as to the sound
trees mourn there own...

Penny For Your Thoughts
Some people just want to watch the world burn
as the board is set and the die cast
I am seer who feasted on the tree of knowledge
I see the end game in this age of greed
I am free thinker in the age of cyber slaves
My services don't come cheap
might as well cash in hey
I'm all for me
I blow with the wind
Corporate sluts beware
machines notoriously break
and fail as time withers
even Gaia who birthed us
will one day relent to father time
I'm torn which way to jump
name your price
plug in forever...

Marvelous Night
Time spent laying next to you
holding hands, staring off at clouds
playing what can you see
Softly stolen kiss placed on cheek
tracing the outline of your breast
sensually touching nipple tip
Pulling me closer
I look into those eyes
a beautiful soul reflects back
pleading me to stay
to not leave her side
never let go
I feel safe here with you
like that missing puzzle piece
found underneath the sofa
Hiding beneath a blanket of stars
secure in the rhythm of your heart
marvelous night for a moondance my...

Untitled. Tangled in 50
Well oiled machine
dying at the heart
Dig deep into pockets
buy your way
a dollar bill
for your soul
Here's your ticket
to the promise land
You live by the wage
then you fucking die a slave
White collar tangled up in Blue
Creativity sparks revolution
welcome to the new world order
dying at the heart
Dig deep into pockets
buy your way
a dollar bill
for your soul
Here's your ticket
to the promise land
You live by the wage
then you fucking die a slave
White collar tangled up in Blue
Creativity sparks revolution
welcome to the new world order

Sweet Khalia
Kahlau White Russian
Mudslide thick
Black Russian numb
B-52 bomb the senses
Sweet Khalia
the lovely boost juice girl
how your smile warms me
fills me with desire
time will tell
next time our eyes meet
how well I played that last hand
by showing you some of my writes

Drinking The Moment
Not fade away my love
as we share the moment
here we are pure
and here we rise
drink deep, cleanse body
mind and soul
Let the drum of my beating heart
sound the march
as your dying heart beats
that sound of hope once again
My love we spent the eve
on the shore
soaking in the moonlight
as you and I starred deeply..
tenderly stealing, kisses
lovingly placed
two bodies one soul
mirrored dreamers
love you
as we share the moment
here we are pure
and here we rise
drink deep, cleanse body
mind and soul
Let the drum of my beating heart
sound the march
as your dying heart beats
that sound of hope once again
My love we spent the eve
on the shore
soaking in the moonlight
as you and I starred deeply..
tenderly stealing, kisses
lovingly placed
two bodies one soul
mirrored dreamers
love you

Here I Wait
Babe i am damaged goods
right now i need space
i know you care deeply
you give me strength
Also i feel your pain
when you shoulder mine
Know this i am truly sorry
i hurt you that night
that i called on you
i didn't expect an answer
Which is why i beg you to wait
i need to reflect ALONE
Where are you my love?
here on the astral plain
time lords roam like spider
ever delicate across her web
Spying you in the labyrinth of Crete
I started to follow
but you turned ebony locks
flicking out of face
your...

Ascended
Take my hand when you feel down
not even the Styx could part our souls
for your beacon shined true my love
fear not I will find you
For now we remain
opposite sides of the clyde
you on the low bank
me far on high
Held in both hands your lifeline
Ascension my love
I found the code
Rock you baby to and fro
Not too fast, listen to the wind
the thundering of my beating heart
coming home
For now though we remain
opposite sides of the clyde
me down low
you ascended high
not even the Styx could part our souls
for your beacon shined true my love
fear not I will find you
For now we remain
opposite sides of the clyde
you on the low bank
me far on high
Held in both hands your lifeline
Ascension my love

Not too fast, listen to the wind
the thundering of my beating heart

opposite sides of the clyde

Remoteness
The grey sky
provides backdrop
for lush green hills
ancient gum-trees
stand stalwart reminder
that nature
will always remain
Here on secluded dirt road
you would be forgiven
for thinking
this was remote Australia'
Half a dozen roos hop about
grazing their land
oblivious to me
this foreign observer
I could get a horse
a rife plus some basic supplies
I could live out here

A Crimsin Letter From The Psyche Ward (Can you truly write anything ? )
Dear Crimsin
Turns out they are not letting me out
apparently, I had a relapse and require a few more ECT treatments
It is hard to not take the pills they shovel down my throat
as I am nothing more than a fucking glorified lab rat
how high would you like me to jump
yes doc, no doc, life is fucking peachy doc
I fear they will never let me out mate
out here on the grounds the sun feels lovely
recharging me out of this drug induced haze
Under prying eyes, loaded up with a vast array
of sleepy needles, waiting to strike at a moments...

Ichi Ni San Shi Go
I was 'Ronin'
on faithful steed did I ride
Injustice and corruption
dealt swiftly from 'katana' at my side
Such beauty did catch my eye
our love deemed forbidden
but mere words
they can not deny soul mates
Ride you said
we will meet again
strong our connection
I will return my love
when the cherry blossoms first bloom
Swiftly did I flee
paying little mind
to three stings
that struck my back
Here I can hear the lost souls cry
wailing in pain
separated from soul mates
Three arrows drain my...

Letting Go
Feels like
my emotional basement
has fallen out beneath me
I feel so very drained
like a succubus
drinking deep of my essence
slipping beyond the walls of apathy
I grow tired of this self medicated ride
last night I took a pill
or maybe three
funny falling back
on self destructive ways
Chased them down with a beer
or perhaps it was two
My head a foggy mess these days
each day spent waiting
I fall inches deeper
my finger nail grip slips...
