Crooning over stones
Many a night
we have dabbled in lustfulness
Sparing only
the mark
of the swoon
In songs, we lament
when they move on
our needs
left unmet
Our yearnings, clipped
Through gestures
we create
vessels of verdict
Bereft of poise
But not I
I’ve kept true love, undying
lain at the shores
of commitment
dip me into the liquid of life
bathe me in adoration
to enhance
the flow of emotions
Crooning
over
stones
Dissolving lonesomeness
into streams of connection ...

Vintage eye
Present witness
Bare unto this mysterious oath
Bide by the faded temptations
that bind your decree
Make right by the windowless soul
Hidden are the secrets
that keep the darkness intact
Make shallow the nuisance liar
who deems our belonging
to be unbound
Bias is the guardian’s wisdom
blinding you wholly windless
Mark my intentions as conspiracy
Pale my comparisons as entity
Live by the seller of infamy
Aligned by the razor of depravity
Cruel and hardened onus
Upon us, your filthy desires

Atmospheric shaving
To this fear I am alluding
Catastrophic lies colluding
Empty flesh
So ever soothing
Whittle down my hardened core
Esoteric feelings
When the wisdom’s unappealing
Drawn in motion
always reeling
Adrift in simulated lore
Lay judgement on a sinner
To remake his spirit thinner
Always fraught
Never a winner
With a mind in constant war
Atmospheric shaving
Expressive thoughts all misbehaving
Melodies
a constant craving
Shape the surface
I implore

Catastrophic lies colluding
Empty flesh
So ever soothing
Whittle down my hardened core
Esoteric feelings
When the wisdom’s unappealing
Drawn in motion
always reeling
Adrift in simulated lore
Lay judgement on a sinner
To remake his spirit thinner
Always fraught
Never a winner
With a mind in constant war
Atmospheric shaving
Expressive thoughts all misbehaving
Melodies
a constant craving
Shape the surface

Oath of capture
Airborne blue so surely fleeting
Upon my soul the vapours blew
Come hither where the strands are meeting
Enveloping the lives of two
Calm me, morrow. Send me grace
To inhibit the investors decay
A life of wanton spirits enlace
In the fields in which we lay
Separate the spoken harrows
That form illusions kin
Navigate the forgotten narrows
That we both are treading in
Kill me softly with your censure
A forgotten oath of capture
Detail the depths of our adventure
Foreswear the minds enrapture
...

The shade
Able, she kept
Sorrow she tote
Vacant, she wept
Morrow she wrote
Overfilling our head
Staining the heart
Spilling with dread
Falling apart
The blame that we give
The guilt that we keep
The emotions we live
The fissure is deep
Imperfect deflection
Losing our soul
Imitating perfection
Filling a hole
To live without madness
Dispelling the shade
Overcoming the sadness
Is when we are made
Sorrow she tote
Vacant, she wept
Morrow she wrote
Overfilling our head
Staining the heart
Spilling with dread
Falling apart
The blame that we give
The guilt that we keep
The emotions we live
The fissure is deep
Imperfect deflection
Losing our soul
Imitating perfection
Filling a hole
To live without madness
Dispelling the shade
Overcoming the sadness
Is when we are made

Sable sinned momentum
I sink into desire
with elegance
Capturing swollen envious swoons
Fragility shall not inhibit
The forthrightness
of
my moon
Wind sown
tattered beauty
Flittering on captured veils
Settling on a version of endeavour
In the havoc of the gale
A dawning of connection
An altered
pensive spirit
A sable sinned momentum
With no ability to steer it
Wherefore my creation
Of finesse
my spirit hones
A chance of brass elation
Settle atop my needy bones

The shading of the wisp
The shading of the wisp
The crisp flair of belonging
The inglorious peril
That ousts sparrows
from dawning
A wayward feather
flitting through evenfall
with complexity
A careless fluttering of dishonour
Splayed
on a misfit’s depth
The maverick
and the conformist
The intimacy
Of an impulsive fellowship
United in variance
The sharing of wisdom
with tempered
melodious pining
entwining their life lore
to master patience
as the ancients
chisel unvarying oath into their spirits ...

Mandolins in the rain
Impatience
Equipped and unbound
Delegated
Handpicked and uncrowned
Enervated
Unwise and unsound
Saturated
Involved and profound
Detriment
The blade of a sliver
Jaded
The consonants quiver
Spoken
All the lies you’ve delivered
Focussed
On destinies withered
Downcast
Forlorn and strife lending
Dominance
A dark and cruel tending
Process
A whirl of life bending
Inelegance
Unvarnished and blending ...

Ship to wreck
Trauma
Immure me deeply
Force your weakness through my veins
Tainting the very heart
that feeds
my skeletal remains
I lay dying here
morosely
Upon this pedestal
I’m frail
No way to elude the voices
Urging me
to not prevail
My tears fall
nonchalantly
To reveal my thinning husk
For those defining me as penetrable
I breakdown most every dusk
I shy away from fawning
Hold my candle to the flame
But when I burn down to the bottom
I know I’ll never be the same

detrimental
contaminated cores
Insanity is demeaning
in a way that deplores
Sealing an obsession
Normalities misused
And honestly
these mannerisms
are unjust
and confused
The wisdom of deferral
precludes my dismay
As the integrity of freedom
moves to delay
This profound inconvenience
I retaliate for what’s mine
Instead of defending
the consistency of time
Imprison your emotions

Inadmissible Lifetime
Striving for prosperity
To be the master of revival
But a toxic fluctuation
Has affected my arrival
Depraved inconsistencies
Entangled human swarms
The lack of breath
will take what’s left
To reveal this brand new form
With such incense we coexist
And pay the applicable fees
To receive an inadmissible lifetime
stricken with disease
Concerned with whom may deliquesce
Before the ticket becomes invalid
Covenants of envy stain thy face
To paint the soul as pallid
Shadowless...

Timeworn
Validate my emotions
Mollify my mind
All that glitters makes me focus
On what intimidates my kind
Advance when I feel steady
Circle safe from sin
Call upon humility
To denounce fallacious din
I’ve worn mistaken envy
I’ve scrawled contested scrolls
I authenticate conformity
Ennobled catered souls
Take me for the honour
Leave me for the shame
Tempt me timeworn wisdom
Emplace my jaded reign
Mollify my mind
All that glitters makes me focus
On what intimidates my kind
Advance when I feel steady
Circle safe from sin
Call upon humility
To denounce fallacious din
I’ve worn mistaken envy
I’ve scrawled contested scrolls
I authenticate conformity
Ennobled catered souls
Take me for the honour
Leave me for the shame
Tempt me timeworn wisdom
Emplace my jaded reign
