A Thief in the Night
A thief in the night.
Ingenius disguise.
What demon delight.
Completing assigns.
It's eating inside.
Deleting your mind.
Deceitfully hide.
Impeding can lie.
So really rely.
Repeating affright.
Releasing denied.
All cheating defines.
Competing for time.
Unyielding design.
Where seeds have but died.
No breathing confides.
Conceiving combines.
Our evening abides.
Increasing divide.
There we will entwine.
Then sealing and cry.

Practice Bars 3
Quite pleasing, I have mastered rhyme rooks.
Skies bleeding science after y'all shook.
My feelings, I don't have them all, look.
Like reading, Isaac Asimov books.
Guised greetings might have masked divine crooks.
Dice leading pirates after spines stood.
Try scheming heights we passed in times took.
Price pleading, private passions might push.
Bright beaming binds the blatherskite foot.
Lines weaving lying lavish like hoof.
Wine, wheat, and rice Saturn giant sook.
Rye seedling blight have acid nights cooked.
Prized...

Run to Atonement
What's hewn in stone was removed and stolen,
the tombs of shoulders Azul in focus.
Once moons remold us exhumed in bones of,
some knew the moments confused below dust.
Luck looted ocean's sun hue as golden,
dusk drew a donor blood blue from ozone.
Of spoon and soldier runs wounds of closure,
cut through to open trust due as spoken.
Such roots are lonesome from Cupid's coldest,
unto enrollment some student showman.
Much full of hocus love fools betrothment,
comes duels of jokers spun lucid omen.

Cavernous Echoes
Cavernous echoes
Inside the chamber
Where dust gathers
Course infinity
Ethereal breath amaze
Comfort succumbs
Filthy hands
Dare to handle
Touch a soul
Death inside
Suffocated prison
Paranoia hinted walls
At the prospect
Closing in
An escape alone
Devoid of purpose
Hidden in truth
Moments recall
Universal secrets
Into the abyss
Graven gaze
Eyes deeply
Fixated hypnosis
Mood transforms
Lust tempts
Deity life transpose
Nothing...

Hexed In Lexical Nexus
Hexed in lexical nexus,
stressed direction of sentence,
lest reflection neglected,
depth perception relentless.
Next is breathless connection,
pressing head spins of guesses,
rending penchant complexion,
yet discretion regrets it.
Best attention projected,
less than heaven presented,
let conception demented,
when expression extended.
Exponential eccentrics,
bet bedeviling death wish,
kept perpetual plexus,
net ephemeral senses.
Flesh and sexual testing,
meant incredible meshing, ...

Children of the Witch
Generational worship
Paid idolatrous ode
To mystery dreams stolen
From faring dragon history
Behind secrecy curtains
Passes on vain imagination
Performance for roses
On stage confidence
Ironic hypocrites
Acting lustful inquiry
Hissing deceitful
Forked tongue bewilders
Slithering in counterfeit vision
Winding selfish
Get rather than give
Appeases oneself fulfilled
As snakes parent
Supposed fame and fate
In unraveling penalty due
To suddenly strike
Raised on cloud...

Remembering First
This spell of the world.
Compelling unfurl.
Intelligible.
Non-sensical curse.
What's selling assures.
Your melody mirth.
A skeleton dirge.
Where dwelling meets earth.
Ephemeral hearse.
Exemplary urn.
Heretical church.
Lest hellion rebirth.
Their swelling occurs.
Such leavening slurs.
To tell me disturbs.
Unhealthy disperse.
Our well is but dirt.
Extremity thirst.
Suggestible surge.
Indelible burn.
Dependency searched.
Unhelpfully hurt. ...

Given Goner Gloom
Distant dawn has news.
Inner call infused.
Sprinkle spawn bestrew.
Living carbon rule.
Figure yonder zooms.
Fickle far removed.
Kingdoms long bemuse.
Bidders born abuse.
Business bothers bloom.
Brittle blossom blues.
Fiddled foster youth.
Silver strong with spoons.
Sinner song produced.
Singer solemn food.
Tiller rotten fruit.
Filtered fondness juice.
Wilder want assumes.
Simple starlet view.
Hinted harlot hue.
Kinship followed suit.
Cyclic cosmic clues. ...
