Stellar Stream
seeing stars through pain
astronomical torment
adrift in stardust
consuming darkness
deep dark black abysmal hole
ignites the Big Bang
lights dance in the sky
real or imagination
hallucinations
truths spawning questions
on which plane does truth exist
astral or causal
blasting into dreams
planetary ecstasy
vacuum of deep space
cosmic array
astronomical medley
black holes and comets
successful moments
balanced with fears of failure
universal scales
...

One Last Time
I was so young
I was so scared
I knew I was losing you
I sat alone at the top of the stairs
I sat there many times before that day
I would watch you making pancakes in the morning
I would hear your slippers shuffle on the floor
I sat there and this time you weren't there
I couldn't hear your slippers shuffle on the floor
I sat there young and scared because I knew I was losing you
I sat there at the top of the stairs alone
I sat there listening to the beeps of the machine from the other room
I sat there listening to the...

Brace For Impact
Bare with me, you see I never experienced death you see.
I was living my life in the hundred acre woods,
Eating honey sipping lies, Believing life was all good.
Failing to foresee the red sea slowly engulfing me.
Life comes at you fast.
Death hit me with a upper cut, jab cross
Took out one of my brightest lights
I had no chance.
It was only 3 seconds into the first round
I was leaning, I couldn’t stand.
Grim reaper told me I was his inn keeper
Dropped his bags at the front door
He appeared eager
I became weaker ...

Passed away
Flashing forward thru the years
Schoolyard days to mourning tears
Memories forgotten, now so clear
I've passed away
Many loved ones I've left behind
Hope their memories of me are kind
Maybe I'll linger upon their mind
For I've passed away
On the dark days let me be
A light for you to search and seek
But please be content with my memory
For I've passed away
Schoolyard days to mourning tears
Memories forgotten, now so clear
I've passed away
Many loved ones I've left behind
Hope their memories of me are kind
Maybe I'll linger upon their mind
For I've passed away
On the dark days let me be
A light for you to search and seek
But please be content with my memory
For I've passed away

Shattered
My girl was there and pretended to care
As long as it looked good to others
But when things became tough
And the roads became rough
I seemed to become too much a bother
The drink and the drugs
Filled the void of a love
That no longer seemed to matter
Then piece by piece
Like broken glass at my feet
My life became incurably shattered
Shattered like a window
After innocent childhood play
Shattered like a puzzle
Thrown away in dismay
Shattered like a bottle

Like broken glass at my feet

Dependency
It seems to me that our minds lie
in the trap of darkness which we despise
We nurture madness yet fear its ends
and dream of life to find forgiveness for our sins
Driven by the mighty engine of fear
we destroy through consumption all we hold dear
Minds filled with mad offerings
dreams of death the only thing proffering
A promise of new premise
the supernatural release of our souls great blemish
in the trap of darkness which we despise
We nurture madness yet fear its ends
and dream of life to find forgiveness for our sins
Driven by the mighty engine of fear
we destroy through consumption all we hold dear
Minds filled with mad offerings
dreams of death the only thing proffering
A promise of new premise
the supernatural release of our souls great blemish

Angel Baby
Following your birth
You survived three shorts days on earth
Not long enough to work or play,
nor celebrate your first birthday
Nine months safe in mums tum
The ultrasound difficult to fathom
Doctor’s held little hope of your survival
Your mum and dad could only wait!
A special gift from above,
long-awaited and very much loved
Born perfect, ten fingers and toes
Inheriting your mother’s nose
With odds stacked against you from the start,
developing complexities with your heart
Specialists flew you...

The Great Unrest
Noise that fills the troubled mind
Ins and outs they all collide
Thoughts drowned out not fully formed
Coming through faster than the norm
Rising up then falling down
Trying to escape this horrible sound
Running far away it seems
Yet not moving towards my dreams
Now little more than a memory
The quiet seems to be a dream
Ins and outs they all collide
Thoughts drowned out not fully formed
Coming through faster than the norm
Rising up then falling down
Trying to escape this horrible sound
Running far away it seems
Yet not moving towards my dreams
Now little more than a memory
The quiet seems to be a dream

Where Souls Suffer Heartbreak
Come, Soul of mine, again to me,
Remain close and stir not from my embrace,
Not all Darkness is for us to love,
Though it hurts to release it,
It can only hurt worse to love it longer.
In time you will see this Darkness loves its own,
And has chosen so many others, time and again,
It is not healing it comes seeking,
It is not love it is truly needing,
Simply occupation by something it has found fascinating.
Be still, gentle beloved, now with me,
In this, you must trust that I know best,
There is good reason you and I are...
Remain close and stir not from my embrace,
Not all Darkness is for us to love,
Though it hurts to release it,
It can only hurt worse to love it longer.
In time you will see this Darkness loves its own,
And has chosen so many others, time and again,
It is not healing it comes seeking,
It is not love it is truly needing,
Simply occupation by something it has found fascinating.
Be still, gentle beloved, now with me,
In this, you must trust that I know best,
There is good reason you and I are...

It's Time
Say it loud, say it proud
Let me hear a f*** yeah if you're black or you're brown
White America steady tryna take off your crowns
They stay shooting you down
Blood in the streets
Too many bodies to count
They try to dim your shine and brainwash young minds
But united we stand and scream for justice
It's Time
Rise up and fight the power
Every minute, every hour
And we won't stop till we overthrow their corrupt towers
Take back what's ours
It was never theirs in the...

Blood Sweat And Tears
Cool morning
Push mower shearing grass tops
Rhythmic motion mindless meditative work
Temperature rising air and body warming
Salty sweat beginning to flow
Clipper trimming stray branches
Inch-long thorns scratch and puncture unprotected arms
Blood mixing with sweat
Rake lifting leaves and twigs
From green carpet scent of mown grass
Fatigue setting in
rest In cool shade
Remembering
A young boy and his dad planting a garden
Work and play intertwined
