GARDEN OF EXCUSES
Place a fence around the Garden of Excuses for habits
To ward off the strays: dogs, foxes and rabbits
That nibble on our fruited seeds and vegetation
Ruining the livestock of our generation.
Don’t allow the rabbits near the carrots
Nor the little foxes near the parrots!
Shun them away from the garden
‘Lest they ruin the garden without pardon!
Your betrayal has no pardon
As you allowed my heart to harden
I created a comfortable cradle
Never knowing it would be fatal!

Does Anybody Dream a Comedy
I'm wakin' up again from a bad nightmare
and I don't think I can fall back asleep
even though it's late, I know I'll be okay
but I'm tired of the same old, same old, tragedy
does anybody dream a comedy
or am I the only one who never has?
is it odd I've never heard a laugh
or a piano playin' Alley Cat
so I'm wonderin' if anybody dreams in comedies
unlike me
the road is dry and boring on this long haul out to west Texas
and I'm itchin' for a break to catch some zzz's
not because I'm tired, no, the situation's...
and I don't think I can fall back asleep
even though it's late, I know I'll be okay
but I'm tired of the same old, same old, tragedy
does anybody dream a comedy
or am I the only one who never has?
is it odd I've never heard a laugh
or a piano playin' Alley Cat
so I'm wonderin' if anybody dreams in comedies
unlike me
the road is dry and boring on this long haul out to west Texas
and I'm itchin' for a break to catch some zzz's

I'll Meet You Halfway
With a hollow breath in a heavy world
Her faith is a fallen leaf in an early morning light
Love caught in a whirlwind
With a plead to never say goodbye
She cries
Please visit me
Please visit me
If you don't mind
Please comfort me
Look in on me
From time to time
I'll even meet you halfway
If you can't fly this far
For just one day
We'll rest this tired heart
Past the highest clouds
And the furthest star
Between heaven and our house
I'll meet you halfway
Dripping down her...
Her faith is a fallen leaf in an early morning light
Love caught in a whirlwind
With a plead to never say goodbye
She cries
Please visit me
Please visit me
If you don't mind
Please comfort me
Look in on me
From time to time
I'll even meet you halfway
If you can't fly this far
For just one day
We'll rest this tired heart
Past the highest clouds
And the furthest star
Between heaven and our house
I'll meet you halfway
Dripping down her...

Wall of Sleep
I close my eyes
Let the darkness take me in
As I fade away
I hear your voice call out to me
I see you there
A shining light that draws me near
When you went away
My heart was broken for all time
nothing left to say
A million tears still left to cry
When darkness falls
I feel a stirring in my heart
Let the darkness bind us now
On loves eternal shore
Let me hold you close
Just one minute more
Our love can last forever
Behind the wall of sleep
I live my life in dreams
Never will I...
Let the darkness take me in
As I fade away
I hear your voice call out to me
I see you there
A shining light that draws me near
When you went away
My heart was broken for all time
nothing left to say
A million tears still left to cry
When darkness falls
I feel a stirring in my heart
Let the darkness bind us now
On loves eternal shore
Let me hold you close
Just one minute more
Our love can last forever
Behind the wall of sleep
I live my life in dreams
Never will I...

All Paths Lead Down The Rabbit Hole Or Where They Should
A ball rolls down a hill
Bumbling and tumbling
Free radical loose on the street
A prisoner watches it incomplete
In the side pocket of dreams
Ricocheting off to nowhere it seems
Streaming through tunnels and corridors
Of amazing twists and syncopated colors
A flick of a switch
An unnoticed twitch
A fleeting glimpse
Or a secret knowing stolen kiss
Flying through space swiftly
Avoiding the storms deftly
Skipping over water waved in currents
Black to yellow to orange to yellow pageants
...

Ripples in Rhyme
A small turbulence in the stream
this perturbance in this dream
nudges me now awake
lightens every step I now take
in the direction of true north
in this search of my true worth
steps I took and those untaken
keep me now longing to awaken
Read these ripples in rhyme
in the braille of time
this perturbance in this dream
nudges me now awake
lightens every step I now take
in the direction of true north
in this search of my true worth
steps I took and those untaken
keep me now longing to awaken
Read these ripples in rhyme
in the braille of time

Dreamscape
To sleep - perchance
to dream” ~ Hamlet
Within a dreamless sleep
or even a sleepless dream
it always still does seem
there is some mystery to keep
As I try to fathom its deep
another sad salted stream
refuting any cheerful gleam
with these endless tears I weep
While I search for words to find
what hides now beneath the drape
Despite quaint manners I do mind
yet cannot ever hope to escape
All of these facets thus designed...

In this time of taking things too seriously
In the middle of this era of irrelevancy
Amidst the backdrop of sheer terror
Sprinkled with lemon drops and green lollipops ...
I just wanted you to know I was thinking of you ...

THIS IS YOUR TIME.
This is YOUR time….
To shine
To achieve
To aim
To strive
To challenge yourself
To reach your goals
To capture your dreams
To make things happen
This designated place called earth calls out to you, stating: “
THIS IS YOUR TIME!”
Never has there existed anyone like you in the past
Never will there be another one like you in the future
Among zillions of people come and gone and yet to come
YOU are UNIQUE right here..right now…right this moment
In this space in time….
Dare to dream
Dare to search ...

THE TRUCULENT GIRL
Sitting by my window looking at the park
Watching children play and hearing dogs bark
I see a young girl who triggers an EVANESCENCE
As my mind and my heart remembers her essence.
TRUCULENT in all her ways with all good people
She was banned from the market with the golden steeple
The RANCOR she bore in her heart
Had sharpen her words like fiery darts
If you paid her a compliment, you heard her BLITHER
Her CAVIL-talk often a clipper
Chopping down anyone who came in peace
Her CHICANERY tearing people piece by piece.
I remember...

Nocturne
While my candle does burn
throwing its faint light
to the limit of all sight
the darkness reigns supreme
Positing me in a dream
of a shadowy masque
allowing me to bask
in this honeysuckle breeze
Watching little fireflies
signal with all their lies
using a Morse code
all their very own
Blinking on and off
telegraphing like Nabokov
to invite their dearest Lolita
to come on out to play
Having so much to say
about porcelain...
throwing its faint light

To Catch a Dream
It always does seem
to truly catch a dream
one must contantly be weaving
to contain all that is deceiving
For deep within the night
lies a sacrificial rite
when the words we say
can finally make their way
Drift upon the blackest ink
floating right upon the brink
of wakefulness
of illumination
A poetic sanctification
of all that I still believe
from the dreams I retrieve
these dreams I do remember
Since that first cold November
when my spirit chose to return
continue again to learn...
