ALARM
Sweet and dreamy ringing of the xylophone
Fills the empty silence with its resounding tone.
Bouncing off the dark room walls,
Charms the night fall
As I sleepwalk by day and stand on paved bricks
Blinded by the folds of the midnight mix.
Never knowing where I’m going or where I’m headed
Oh, my! I know I’m starting to regret it!
But, the hypnotizing soft-tone strikes of the xylophone
Gently creating its soft melodic tone
Seductively entices me to sleepwalk some more
With my eyes wide shut but with feet on floor.
Clock...
Fills the empty silence with its resounding tone.
Bouncing off the dark room walls,
Charms the night fall
As I sleepwalk by day and stand on paved bricks
Blinded by the folds of the midnight mix.
Never knowing where I’m going or where I’m headed
Oh, my! I know I’m starting to regret it!
But, the hypnotizing soft-tone strikes of the xylophone
Gently creating its soft melodic tone
Seductively entices me to sleepwalk some more
With my eyes wide shut but with feet on floor.
Clock...

Wounds May Heal but Scars Run Deep
I used to recall
How “empathy” felt
Spring was in my heart without fall
Winter wrapped around my belt
Summer was my season
Free of hatred’s treason
My love became a blossomed rose bed
Petaled with bouquets free of vines
Butterflies haloed about my head
My personality had no confines
The sun was free to shine
While the rain would troll away
Robins nested where I’d lay
As their songs
Delightfully encouraged my hammock to sway
Until that dark and stormy day
When you introduced me to your wrongs
They shadowed my...

The Killing Fields
Beware this land
A most desolate place
True evil’s at hand
With a cold embrace
Death shadows its gate
Blood quenches its soil
Piked heads lie awake
The damned suffer turmoil
Crows feast on flesh
Picking off the sinew
The agony is fresh
All life must discontinue
Sacrifice and torture
Rape the damns remains
Forever trapped in horror
Fenced around with brains
Crucifixes stretch the dead
Intestines rot in excrement
Hatred spreads like inbred
Ravishing this unholy sediment
Blood whips the night ...
A most desolate place

Piked heads lie awake

Crows feast on flesh
Picking off the sinew

All life must discontinue
Sacrifice and torture
Rape the damns remains
Forever trapped in horror
Fenced around with brains
Crucifixes stretch the dead
Intestines rot in excrement
Hatred spreads like inbred
Ravishing this unholy sediment
Blood whips the night ...

Dissonant Chimes In The Soundtrack Of Life
Calling out of tune Dammit!
Blaring when dulce demanded
Tinkle tackle tingly
Skin crawling with aversion
Cant they see its subversion
Underwater it might do
Cackling and crackling
In open sunny air
Only leads to despair
Clackety crackle pop
Stop it dammit!!!
Definitely not Janet!!!
Slipping the knot
Drop the chair
Cant you see how your words
Can lead to permanent disrepair
Tss ba ba tss ba ba tss ba ba splash
Better now it's time to crash ...

Day by Day
Emotional memories
flood my existence
like a structurally
damaged dam
Forcing me to face
the man that I am
Or at least what’s become
of this shallow and broken
vessel version of a man
Whose reflected image
was nothing but so much of an
enclosed sham
Rebooting and resetting
as if I were an infected program
When did it all go wrong?
When did I go wrong?
Early mornings encircle
my miserable conundrum
like maddening hunger enraged
vultures on the prowl
...

Aftershokk
"Aftershokk"
I stand on the edge of bridges burnt
I'm choking on the lessons I've learnt
Will karma really bite me in the ass?
I'm trapped in sands of an hourglass
I watch my life through the filthy pain
Every bit of my love will slowly drain
Atrocity rushes in my soul to rupture
What will cease my lifetime of torture?
All I really need is a hollow point bullet
I'll muster up the courage & just pull it!
Will I feel my brains paint these walls?
Or sense the gravity as my body falls?
Because...

Auto Pilot
Attention steady wanders
Mind over matter
Obsolete thoughts squander
Silent pitter patter
Tour guide central
Trapped for days
Illustrious disturbed mental
Mouse blueprinted maze
Sight seems blind
Black hole space
Empty sounds bind
Entity no face
Downward funnel spiral
Abyssal swallowed pit
Self-destruct made final
Time suffering whit
Principles flutter dim
Speech echoes ears
Prisoner from within
Uncharted mass fears
Zombified act illusion
Diluted motor skills
Uncompliant heir...

When April Sings Opera
A drama queen arises
Spewing chaos upon horizons
Parade of masks disguises
Unnecessary loss brutalizes
Tears among eyes agonizes
Devastating closures of franchises
Coldness continues its chastises
Sirens of sadness uprises
Future of hope surmises
Poetic edification sympathizes
Love and peace harmonizes
Abuse of alcohol tranquilizes
Quarantined houses jeopardizes
Social media still theorizes
Creative voices vocalizes
Circle of friends improvises
This poem truly apologizes

Be Afraid To Be Alone
The night is growing
You are still awake
Your T.V. is snowing
You have a mild headache
The winds punish your shutters
The rain brutalizes your house
A local owl hoots its mutter
The elements create a rouse
The branches claw your windows
The trees sway along the breeze
The thunder rolls its billows
While the lightning threatens to seize
Your T.V. becomes alive
Broadcasting the local news
There were reports of a demise
On the very street you snooze
There’s a sudden interruption
An escape from an asylum ...
You are still awake

The thunder rolls its billows

Goodbye Dad
Goodbye Dad
I am heart broken
That I have lost you
So fast
I can't stop crying
Yes I could never believe
That you had to part so soon
But deep down
I could not stand to see you
Suffer every day
Battling you disease
I tried to make you
Comfortable
Also I had to be strong for you
And it is very hard to do
Yes you lost you battle
And at the same time
It was hard to see you leave
This earth
But at the same time
I must understand that
You are in a better place them me
You are living a new...

Get Off My Back
I’ve listened to you babble
Your insidious remarks for too long
Witnessed your psychotic baffle
Whenever you felt the need to become headstrong
I’ve felt your jealous rage
As if it were brandishing my nerves
I leave traces of you on every page
Without the knowledge it deserves
I hear your grimacing cocky tone
Mocking my conscious decision to write
All the while making your presence known
We squabble for a position in this fight
I can taste the bitterness you eat
It’s like a buffet for two
Always sour never sweet
All I...

Viking Forged
A bitter cold breaks the lens of a soul
suffering, blinding it to the wondrous
colors of light refracted by the echos of
happier times and fond memories
The agony of a death not yours pours a monochromatic monotony about the day
as blurred visions whisper of loss and
denial, still he forges on, until Valhalla
They grey skies lurk about as they are
reflected by the troubled waters, this
rambunctious inner child gives way to a
man hurting, there is no sanctuary
He stands from what was a kneeling
position,...
suffering, blinding it to the wondrous
colors of light refracted by the echos of
happier times and fond memories
The agony of a death not yours pours a monochromatic monotony about the day
as blurred visions whisper of loss and
denial, still he forges on, until Valhalla
They grey skies lurk about as they are
reflected by the troubled waters, this
rambunctious inner child gives way to a

He stands from what was a kneeling
