destination (too far)
clustering
of lights
sharpening
themselves
over me,
shadows
behind me,
my eyes
so heavy,
i still
drove,
how i
wished
to sleep,
this moment
sweeping me
over
and over,
my destination
still lay
too far.

Evenings.
The sky is blue
And roses acrostic
Drake.
While still same.

she flies
in this
plush setting,
she sang
and
the morning
rose with
her voice,
like
a load
of light,
her soul
hungry,
she
lifts herself
into the
absolute air,
for
frantic breath
and she
is
driven away.

Escape from Normal
Key Lime getaway
Nothing but pie
Sliding into your tart aura
Leave all earthlings behind ..

Tears Redacted
Exhaling
only
Swallowing words
Shooting daydreams
Cancelling tomorrows
Holding up a small piece of cardboard
to block the sun
Dying yet another
silly quantum death

highway
long legged,
your feet
unmoving,
you get
to travel
while
stretching out,
countless steps,
eager stride
once
formed
in thoughts
of freedom,
let me
travel you,
let me
learn
all of your
secrets,
let me
see
all of your
destinations
you
are living.

Dark Horse
I was thirty, when I was ten.
~
When you anointed me, with fists
it caused me a crown
When the points brought blood
you drew liquid red slashes
upon my downturned cheeks
Then you paraded me around the room
pulling me along by my matted hair
With each stumble, reminding me
that if I fell yet again
I wouldn't walk anymore that day
As fear would cause me to stay
down
The oddest part, including the other things
was how the lights were always on
and always during the day ...

Mind Over Matter(Senryu)
A lust filled mind game
Filled with a twisted desire
Fear of no escape

Air Riff
Air Riff
Dance as never before
hearts, minds entranced
body in motion
fluid and chaotic
retaliation Jack Black taught
to haunt the source
of these broken dreams
dance to a perfect air riff
