POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Everyday I grow upon the hills of fate. To be cut down at the hands of death...so yolo
Orpheus' cry
In lieu the heart lies across the pier that leads to the seas tides. With moon dark and grey, nectar silts through the lips off hope all in lie. Spite what moves the soul seeks to sip through the soils underneath where feet lie, in hades lay to lie. So i stand forth with arms in approach, a plea to the heart to let what in hades lay lie.

modern day christian love
hands embellish the heats brute and might
Flail and diseased, dark and battered they stand.
sweat trickles past chapped lips.
child weeps dry crackles and seeps
cloaked in brown and black,
hair hard and grey
with dust and skin.
Flies take solace in the wounds
and force rapid blinks.
This my friends is the life that surrounds me.
but men have grown to make hearts cold and lifeless.
while we eat and praise God.
and curse him at the same time.
another man on the corner weeps.
Flail and diseased, dark and battered they stand.
sweat trickles past chapped lips.
child weeps dry crackles and seeps
cloaked in brown and black,
hair hard and grey
with dust and skin.
Flies take solace in the wounds
and force rapid blinks.
This my friends is the life that surrounds me.
but men have grown to make hearts cold and lifeless.
while we eat and praise God.
and curse him at the same time.
another man on the corner weeps.

once more
once more into the fray.
I go, with fist clenched
and back unbent.
once more into the fray
I go, with eyes ablaze
and purpose meant
for once a man went into the fray .
without foe,
without pose
without show, he went.
once more into the fray.
With purpose meant

without foe,

without show, he went.
once more into the fray.

blue lagoon
I ask, for love. if true it be,
where lie you, so I can see.
Come so I can hold you above the fore
Of my sunken ship
So as with mist and dew we may kiss.
let clouds lay still in the azure of Octobers bliss
And fish be set in summers creel.
Come my dear, so we lay
With Sheets snaked at beds end
And whisper broken tears upon my ears.
while the wood chokes out the night in fray.
come my dear, lay with me and say love is what we feel.
where lie you, so I can see.
Come so I can hold you above the fore
Of my sunken ship
So as with mist and dew we may kiss.
let clouds lay still in the azure of Octobers bliss
And fish be set in summers creel.
Come my dear, so we lay
With Sheets snaked at beds end
And whisper broken tears upon my ears.
while the wood chokes out the night in fray.
come my dear, lay with me and say love is what we feel.

hearts decree
I coat words with colours of the heart.
Brush strokes curved with rapid lucid memories.
For friend, I turned to vessel and vice to erase like sea upon the sands.
For in Kubla Khan I wish to have lived.
As man, I stand straight back and chest not prone.
Twain hearts split by words gone
For the dark allure of fate, show not tears shed
That will fill the rivers and lakes and make rain.
Words unspoken I spit'e as dreams come of thee.
but silent I must remain and be.
so friend, I write of a man in deep lie
of arch and lilac Unless my world...

A false image
She grasped for the fire. Yearned for its warmth.
Glare upon her cheeks, she smiled with eyes alight.
Smoldered love she held tight, upon the hills of klotho
For love is what she seek'd and thought she brought.
But blind it is, so what she felt she could not sight.
Bare his hands absorbed hers in the morning light.
And the winds blew wildly in the summer sun.
And her tears were quick to join.
For a picture speaks a thousand words.
And a cliff adorns the sea as it beats upon the shore.
My friends I say, love is a beauty ugly when gone.
Glare upon her cheeks, she smiled with eyes alight.
Smoldered love she held tight, upon the hills of klotho
For love is what she seek'd and thought she brought.
But blind it is, so what she felt she could not sight.
Bare his hands absorbed hers in the morning light.
And the winds blew wildly in the summer sun.
And her tears were quick to join.
For a picture speaks a thousand words.
And a cliff adorns the sea as it beats upon the shore.
My friends I say, love is a beauty ugly when gone.
