Of Sins and Alibis
Between pages of sins and alibis
were souls and dark tides abide
paying poll tax in with a penny
prayin' "O' lawd" it be for salvation
walking the dog cold on the inside
between pages of sins and alibis
were souls and dark tides abide
paying poll tax in with a penny
prayin' "O' lawd" it be for salvation
walking the dog cold on the inside

Sweet Promises and Lies
there's hope in trusting hearts
when a promise is made
hope's flame begins to burn
wanting to believe words
when another speaks
when promises are tenderly said
we're eager to open our mind
believing in the words another speaks
with so much trust we give
believing that each sweet words
are truth from a pure heart
we feel the love's heat
every vow is like a gold band
a bond that seems to tighten
with every touch and kisses
we begin to stand through storm
and through the turbulences of life ...

ADDICT .
You are my strength and my weak spot .
My drug of choice and my cure .
You are everything I desire. My lucky charm
and equally my biggest nightmares but still
I would willingly lay down my life for you .
Or just as easily live a life with you . I’m
an addict at your whim and I wonder
whether you will be my demise hung drawn
and quartered for my weakness. Or will
I conquer your walls and smile at your defeat .
I’m not sure this is unimpaired but I know too
I only feel healed with you . An addict doesn’t ...

Journey alone~
Walking through the forest with moss laden feet I quietly exit this life
unseen, unheard while being swallowed up by the screams inside my internal earth
Rotting corpses leave my senses swaying in the depths of my screams
catering to the sorrows that wander inside me due to mass chaos
Parallel Universes divide that inner peace with fair play soul slice…
Dark vs.Light
Always, in every space of existence the reality of balancing the inner and outer
earth, keeps the echoes of the forbidden just within reach
Outstretched hands with...

Nothingness in Nothing
In a life of nothingness and falseness
reality becomes a mere illusion
mere mirage deceiving the senses
thriving in a labyrinth
of empty promises mere words
nothingness engulfs the soul
a soul living yet hollow
as footsteps echoes through
the corridors of existence
falseness is like a curled serpent
waiting to slither through the cracks of trust
poisoning any semblance of friendship
corroding authentic bonds
expressionless behind masks
true intentions subtly veiled
behind a facade of deceit ...

Two Blind Mice
Prayers into pillows

Eyes averted

Who bears

sin
The one telling
lies
Or the one

Keeping an un*easy peace
One trying
to keep things
un*seen
Hoping there's never a time
When it requires
being challenged
And one determined

It's an...

Barbwire Braille
Scraps of phrases
razor laced endearments
and sordid images
Shots
under cover
Tainted reality
stolen in back alleys
and dingy rooms
Flickering neon
Casting sinister implications
over sight
Stomach recoils
rebels
Contents strewn
upon grimy cement floor
What is learned
blinds
Knees crash upon glass
Shards cutting ...

Caretakers
How many memories, does one have left when the
pickpockets are turned loose and the silence echoes
the sounds of the Lionel trains and Mr. BoJangles?
Now worn-out shoes have come back to haunt me,
and my sister's Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep
somewhere in the attic above. But the lunacy of it all
is that no one cares until the pickpocket steals their
smartphones and Big Mac...and then the caretaker
dance is their own shadow growing old.

Mumbly-Peg With The Elf
Playing Mumbly-Peg with the elf
in séance with a smartphone
communicating with one's self
wondering where the time went
waiting for my English Muffin
and my omen's to pop in
spooning me marmalade
in séance with a smartphone
playing Mumbly-Peg with the elf
in séance with a smartphone
communicating with one's self
wondering where the time went
waiting for my English Muffin
and my omen's to pop in
spooning me marmalade
in séance with a smartphone

Tell Me
Tell me you love me
Even though it’s a lie
Tell me you’ll stay
Please don’t say goodbye
Tell me I’m worth it
Your time wasn’t wasted
Tell me I’m pretty
Without hesitation
Tell me my heart
Wasn’t shattered in vain
Tell me your sorry
Before you hurt me again
Even though it’s a lie
Tell me you’ll stay
Please don’t say goodbye
Tell me I’m worth it
Your time wasn’t wasted
Tell me I’m pretty
Without hesitation
Tell me my heart
Wasn’t shattered in vain
Tell me your sorry
Before you hurt me again

Everyday Is Halloween
A constant concern that is no afterthought
Living life, trapped in an eternal All Hallows Eve
For each have donned their masks
All the while, wiles remain hidden
Beautiful facades adorned with jewels of misdirection
The sly and cunning plot with conniving concentration
For their true intentions are hidden
But be not fooled, nor arrogant
Such as it is, place yourself in front of a mirror
That is when the true terror reveals itself
In the form of your own mask
For true terror lies not in what is known, but what is...
Living life, trapped in an eternal All Hallows Eve
For each have donned their masks
All the while, wiles remain hidden
Beautiful facades adorned with jewels of misdirection
The sly and cunning plot with conniving concentration
For their true intentions are hidden
But be not fooled, nor arrogant
Such as it is, place yourself in front of a mirror
That is when the true terror reveals itself
In the form of your own mask
For true terror lies not in what is known, but what is...
