Lost in the moments affair
Fantasy enticing these highs of despair
Empty promises of fulfillment
Lies on the air
Heart in chains through the eyes
Bondages of a blank stare
Perpetuated by shame
This compulsion to lust
Euphoric trances cast in such shapely dust
Addict of pleasure and ache
Bearing this burden of mutual heartbreak
Demons versus vows
Puppet to these invisible strings
Vision shrouded by delusion
Falling for dreams
Entrapment by way of the minds eye
Reality and myths converge ...

Conjoined
What are we decomposed of?
The body made of composites of decay
Skin like a green house to harvest death
Toxins permeate beyond the surface
This carcass a womb for growths like leeches
Gradually siphoning life from the eyes
Starving the host as it reproduces
Offspring of this world of curses
Doesn’t it have its father’s lies?
Parasites of suffering
Microscopic weapons of this invisible war
Coupled with the voice of doubt
Disease takes hold
Alive in subjugation to the kill
Resentments made manifest with...

Deep Love
He was told by a friend that his ex-wife is dying of cancer
She has less then a month to live
His hatred & animosity towards her was put to the side
They were together for years
Early on they were happy
Everything was golden
Trust and addiction was a big problem for him
They eventually divorced
They couldn't stand to look at one another
They sold the home
He moved to the next county over
She stayed local
For years they had no contact with one another
One of their friends kept in contact with the two of them
They swore...

once upon a song
a sonnet
“On the other side of pain, there is still love.”
—Madeleine L'Engle
she was the sweetest song i’d ever sung,
though amateur my quivering baritone;
upon her dulcimer my treasures hung,
my red wine her compelling pheromone.
her plagal cadence brought me to my grave,
not one sip saved for future poetry.
how fallen, i, a soldier once so brave,
slain hopes interred in love's cold cemetery!

Refurbished Simplicity
My bed drenched in a sweat only a fever dream can produce.
Clouds linger with a persistence that suggest trouble on the horizon.
Breeze blows in through the smallest crack of an open window with furious intentions.
What hell can compare to the pestilence of a seasonal flu whose determination trumps that of modern medicine?
If I could withstand the punishment for a moment longer I would consider myself worthy of a fate which surely has escaped me.

For Better Or Worse
I'm trying to love you through your hurt
Trying to love you through your pain
Trying to sustain through your anxiety
While trying my best to remain sane
I'm trying to love you with empathy
I'm trying to be your ride or die
It's causing a strain on me mentally
And physically; I can't even lie
I spy, with my third eye, real, true love
I try to give it to you unconditionally
And continually try to fly as high as a dove
I'm transparently conveying this poetically
Trying to love you through your pain
Trying to sustain through your anxiety
While trying my best to remain sane
I'm trying to love you with empathy
I'm trying to be your ride or die
It's causing a strain on me mentally
And physically; I can't even lie
I spy, with my third eye, real, true love
I try to give it to you unconditionally
And continually try to fly as high as a dove
I'm transparently conveying this poetically

She Really Doesn't Know That He's Impotent.
Tracy sat next to
the fireplace with her bathrobe
and both legs open
and looking like she's trying
to seduce her friend Robert.

The Silent Reckoning
God gave us Gaia
Lucifer and Free will
Tossed in a Game of Thrones
Littered with Choices
Seduced by a Gambler's Chance
Forever seeking Change
Sans a true Cultivation with Karma
Thus we languish in duplicitous Languages
The first Liar, the last Damned Denier
Gaslighting our own Eyeballs
Barbed wired behind enemy lines
The Jedi mind trick always began with Self
Throwing stones at Truth
Shackled by Proof
Our restraining ordered by Chaos
Stuck between War..Witchery
And...
