Witness To Truth
Memories are what I have left
Simpler times so it seemed
Every night was pure chaos
While days were growing difficult
Spent most the time drinking
The other half I was sleeping
Somewhere between them both
Were little sparks of brilliance
Sober moments I had a few
Finding confusion at the root
It wasn’t a feeling I desired
Being alone with only myself
Always locked in my head
Chained to illusions of hope
But when I reached outward
Reality pulled me back down
Suffocating on false promises ...

(The Last Upper)
Jesus had a huge supper, with large amounts of uppers
Cocaine, amphetamines & methamphetamine
The aliens from our future planet came to visit him on this special day
They offered him food, drink & loads of drugs
Most disciples were upset with this and walked out
A few stayed for the debauchery
There were also punks, metal heads, hip artists and free thinkers at this gathering
Such unity, democracy, in one social gathering
The image I included here is the original Leonardo da Vinci painting that showcased what was really happening during the last...

Valhalla Awaits
the tares of the field care not for winter or summer
they worship the cold and the hot alike
singing throughout history
sailing through time itself they made a cradle here
for their offspring, they have prevailed
under a veil of secrecy
the drum of the heart beats strong in the soul of their children
Valhalla awaits us brethren of ice and spring
eat and be replenished
space is vast we sail ever strong
mightily claiming what is ours
pagan to some as were the first men
before the sun rose here

4 Walls and a door
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ Let's have a real sense of what is understanding, between two people's who came together to be, honest and truthful and blessed. TO finally meet someone, who knew what love, really feels like to the deepness of the, heart ❤️ and mind and thoughts. 🤔 Yet through the courses, we have to learn to journey and travel and walk together instead of alone, but with someone who wants the same things as you are seeking and searching for in your life and love and the world. 🌍 For...

Hell on Two Wheels
On the heels of injustice comes hell on two wheels
Riding into town looking for stern retribution
A steel horse baptized in fire is engulfing its rider
Who brings the inspiring flame of a revolution
Like a burning invader this infernal crusader
Carries a chain to punish or to possibly atone
But his unsheathed sword brings you the word
With poetic tongue dipped in sharp brimstone
“Vengeance is bliss” the rider hisses if you reminisce
When reason and logic were mistaken for anarchy
As the laws have fractured under all...

A "CRONE"?
You see a "crone" -
near skin-and-bone,
whose face well-lined
is age-defined,
hair silver-grey
many-a-day
longer than I
try to deny,
hands more like claws.
Post-menopause
the "spring chicken"
is now "old hen",
with cackling voice
and curses choice,
who's swapped lipstick
for the broomstick...
.
Folk stay away,
not to me stray
as once they might
when lads' delight
and candidate
for bridal mate.
You pass in blink,
but stop...

the only tendrilous link
…
that been there with
the faceless netherlands…
(.. with its steamy hot hissing.. a such
surprisingly reactive in what? urgency
of a decadent formative.. an
addictive abyss … with
a namesake manufactured.. a
sorta made-up spice unheard
of .. cos it never was
in existence
in its natural form
the irony of existence..
that it ceases to exist
in truth .....

meadow predators
the thing to remember
about wolves
sleek beasts that they are
is that sheep
don't see their teeth
until they're going for the throat

Being Human
Have good intentions
and be truthful to yourself
You are only answerable to
Yourself and the
Divine...
That's what matters
and not what others
judge about you
Rest of the world can go
and fuck themselves!
and be truthful to yourself

Yourself and the

Just-World Fallacy
Think no winning greatness a phenotype
but hell itself in repeat mutation
helpful to demagoguery and hype
yet not a guarantee of elation;
just genes at the mercy of cosmic rays
about which Budda could not give a shit
since he has long ago lived out his days
with us remaining to preserve his wit,
as dead as any philosopher's stone
and only resurrected when we read,
assuming that we don't leave it alone,
in our animal haze of need and greed
when abandoning justice for karma...
in warped veracity cushioned by pharma.

The truth will unfold
Undeniably, shadows consume the sky.
Inescapably the stars dim and die.
Uncharacteristically, whispers turn to screams.
Disproportionately hope fractures dreams.
Incomprehensibly, the world twists to decay.
Unexceptionally time drifts away.
Individualistically, souls stand alone.
Irresponsibly they carve from stone.
Unintentionally, paths to ruin align.
Uncompromisingly darkness claims what’s mine.
