Time Is Calling Me (Moving On To Another Phase In My Life)
The hands of time is calling out to me
Adhere to listening to the soothing powers to be
The sandy grainy bed coated from its cool blanket in no rush to flee
The sounds of the gentle waves as it crawls upon land
Kissing the rock formation retreating as it remains to stand
Seagulls soaring, carried away by the distance wind, troubles behind they leave
Close one’s eyes, taste the salt of its embrace the mind can only perceive
The tranquility within the depths appears so vivid
Voices are quite now, so more whispers of being...
Adhere to listening to the soothing powers to be
The sandy grainy bed coated from its cool blanket in no rush to flee
The sounds of the gentle waves as it crawls upon land
Kissing the rock formation retreating as it remains to stand
Seagulls soaring, carried away by the distance wind, troubles behind they leave
Close one’s eyes, taste the salt of its embrace the mind can only perceive
The tranquility within the depths appears so vivid
Voices are quite now, so more whispers of being...

Middle Earth
Sometimes the earth quakes
shakes things up
moves things around
creating, shifting roads
each one different
just like arthritic fingers
Each winding path
filled with spastic water
daring me to dive
daring me to drive
against the waves
against the cars
crashing into me
over and over
each quake
making me work
digging deeper into
Middle Earth
looking for middle ground
the color of white clover
striving for an agreement
signing the year's end...

Seeking Forgiveness From Carmen
Seeking Forgiveness From Carmen
Carmen the waitress says, “Are you bored with this side of town? I bet there are a lot of great attractions around the college town where you are going?”
“The reason I am moving is that the house needs a lot of repairs.”
“You told me that.”
Drawn by Auld Lang Syne my city wheels roll in clouds of time.
The weathered facades of a wooden portrait of the once-grand restaurant broke my heart. The candlelit room where I dined on my last supper with her had retreated to the size of a small tea...

Redacted
The evidence of us
once proudly displayed
has been carefully revised
There wasn't any major cause
just two lost souls
heading in different directions
You owed it to yourself
to find "your" happy
and the easiest way to know
was to extricate yourself
from the internal confusion
I was the sacrifice
and it certainly hurt like hell
being of the mind that I was in this with you
for the long haul
But connections have no guarantees
and I became slowly redacted from your history
...

(#1) Bright Blue Walls
Hey.. what are you after?’ She says
and I tell her who I’m here to see
as she buzzes me into the building
she’s a carbon copy of me
septum ring, awkwardly dressed
stick in her right hand
as we catch the lift together
stand cramped in an oblong box
as a door slides open
releasing us out into the world.
The place is like Fort Knox
as we talk through more intercoms
and it makes sense when I think
about the clientele
all the battered souls of the...

Cook
I got the recipe
and I’m gonna make it
don’t feed my head with doubt
no reasons to fake this
I’m gonna try harder
and I’m gonna be better
if not for me
then for us
I’ve seen the bottom
and I’ve seen the top
if this life’s a competition
then so be it
running for the gold
so let me cook
damn right I’m hungry
quite starved in fact
I’m done with being looked down on
I’m done with this superiority crap
ready for a new flavor
when I’m baking
I want to see it in their faces
that look as if...

Don't Walk Back
Don't walk back
Walk forward
If you have to look back
Remember the mountains
Forget the sickly swamp
To spend your nights
Sifting through ash
Searching for answers
Questions of the past
With no end
Until daylight breaks us
From the questioning night
Wake and
Walk forward
Walk forward
If you have to look back
Remember the mountains
Forget the sickly swamp
To spend your nights
Sifting through ash
Searching for answers
Questions of the past
With no end
Until daylight breaks us
From the questioning night
Wake and
Walk forward

DANCING ON YOUR GRAVE
Oh no I’ve been so bad
thought things I can’t take back
But I want what I can’t have
cos I can’t have it
Now I’m drowning in the sea
of my secret jealousy
this never used to be me
but its a habit
Oh it seems you live my dreams
The whole crowd screams tonight
But I’m in town to steal your crown
I see my name in lights
Everything has a price
even in paradise
I see you with my own eyes
abusing power
Oh I know you thought this show
would last another night
but I’m in town to steal your crown
I see...
thought things I can’t take back
But I want what I can’t have
cos I can’t have it
Now I’m drowning in the sea
of my secret jealousy
this never used to be me
but its a habit
Oh it seems you live my dreams
The whole crowd screams tonight
But I’m in town to steal your crown
I see my name in lights
Everything has a price
even in paradise
I see you with my own eyes
abusing power
Oh I know you thought this show
would last another night
but I’m in town to steal your crown
I see...

I'm Home
Mariska looked around
the house with palm
trees surrounding it
and said "I'm home."
the house with palm
trees surrounding it
