In such an awkward phase
The music disappears and
Try as I might
The words just never show
Beats...and melodies are silence
Like a pin drop in hell
Or a fire on the stream
Clouded but content to listen
My head once aching can breathe
And it does
Like an angel bleeding out my ears
With the trumpets of Heaven
"Once more and you're ousted!"
Screamed the bitter, angry judge
Of course I'd known it all the time
My plain white envelope remains
But tarnished old utensils
Won't prepare us for the...

Shield and Guard
anything is everything
so nothing sacred seems true
but let them be for awhile
because
silence is slow torture
.......and...so............
if technique is your own
maybe
everyone's the same and
fascination is merely the
figment of envy we
create within ourselves
out of
shamefulness and hatred
directed without aim at
easy targets and the foolish
so ever present in our lives
.......however..............
I must stop now ...

Autumn Leaves
Autumn leaves and fragrant curls
Curves which light the day for me
A chance to know you that much better
Floating off into the sea
Eternal Mondays make me blue
Like yellow cars and flying mice
This aching head awaits my slumber
Darkest days await your light
Fly away now pleasant one
for nothing here fulfills your want
But stay close by for I'll be lonesome
Memories will merely taunt
My urge to grow is re-affirmed
By thoughts of time and misspent youth
Frolicsome nights and painful mournings
Refresh mine...

Memories will merely taunt

By thoughts of time and misspent youth
Frolicsome nights and painful mournings

Torturous Bliss
The walls are in ruins
and the light in its dusk
and denial's control
non-existent
Sickened suddenly-choke
by the scenes in my head
of the ones this will also
leave broken
Cold sweat in and out
and a fear I've not known
calm is gone
let it be
'til the morning
For if this is my judgement?
pray quick and swift pain
ignorance is a torturous
bliss
and the light in its dusk
and denial's control
non-existent
Sickened suddenly-choke
by the scenes in my head
of the ones this will also
leave broken
Cold sweat in and out
and a fear I've not known
calm is gone
let it be
'til the morning
For if this is my judgement?
pray quick and swift pain
ignorance is a torturous
bliss
