Clandestine
Secrets kept
Now unfold
The stories told
Shaping the mold
Here I’ve wept
Never known
Knowledge withhold
Resentment grown
Cannot forget
The truth controlled
Not consoled
Deceit threefold
I confess
Mercy sold
For price unknown
For glittering gold
Words of regret
To behold
Guile foretold
I was scold’
Wisdom inept
Cowards not bold
Shaking cold
I’m all alone
Now unfold
The stories told
Shaping the mold
Here I’ve wept
Never known
Knowledge withhold
Resentment grown
Cannot forget
The truth controlled
Not consoled
Deceit threefold
I confess
Mercy sold
For price unknown
For glittering gold
Words of regret
To behold
Guile foretold
I was scold’
Wisdom inept
Cowards not bold
Shaking cold
I’m all alone

Swilling From Your Grail
Beguiled by your propensity
To cure what seems to ail
Masquerading as my saviour
I swilled from your grail
With anaesthetising prowess
You banished all the dread
Bandaging my wounds
So I scarcely bled
Offering courage to endure
The perturbing act of living
Unabated, I absorbed you
Consumed what you were giving
Unaware of your hypocrisy
I welcomed your protection
Defending our acquaintance
Plunging into obsession
Unwitting at the onset
Of the mayhem pending
Captured by your lure
Potency transcending ...
To cure what seems to ail
Masquerading as my saviour
I swilled from your grail
With anaesthetising prowess
You banished all the dread
Bandaging my wounds
So I scarcely bled
Offering courage to endure
The perturbing act of living
Unabated, I absorbed you
Consumed what you were giving
Unaware of your hypocrisy
I welcomed your protection
Defending our acquaintance
Plunging into obsession
Unwitting at the onset
Of the mayhem pending
Captured by your lure
Potency transcending ...

lies and fiction
sensational painful hurt
keen in metaphors and slam the door
on all double talkers
cruelty is its own master
the divinity of the flesh causes distrust
you eat lust and dust
dangling a pretty carrot
will you also eat from a liar's breast
instinctual education I was your love
disappearing memories I see the sky alone
and a sun that burns
you can only reach so high
before the clouds dissipate
and your imaginary dinosaurs disappear
with a light wind
leaning on my kindness
is it folly to think it...

The Rising Star
(i)
Life
Absurd
Ruthless
Paradoxical
Mocking every breath
Inhaled and exhaled, in its blasphemy
Temperamental and unpredictable
Like shifting winds, rifting the clouds
Fraught with thunder and lightening
Marring mortals into monsters
Aimless, restless
Seeking shelter in the bosom of the earth
Birthing stories.
(ii)
There are stories
Of stories
Black and white with a hint of grey
Shadowing the hand written
Cast in stone
Rolling down rocky mountains
Becoming...
