Home is where I want to be
The night came on all dismal and profound
the sea acting ever so violent
by the rapid wind howling around
I needed to vanish, to flee
Higher and higher the seas did surge
gale winds louder and louder
vessel consuming water, partly submerged
with torn and shivering sails
Up ahead bleak hills and barren sands
lighthouse flashing so bright
grateful our vessel spotted land
home is where I want to be
the sea acting ever so violent
by the rapid wind howling around
I needed to vanish, to flee
Higher and higher the seas did surge
gale winds louder and louder
vessel consuming water, partly submerged
with torn and shivering sails
Up ahead bleak hills and barren sands
lighthouse flashing so bright
grateful our vessel spotted land
home is where I want to be

The arc of the pine— with Thepalestrider
The virulent tempest
In the cruel blade of midday
Now rages forth unyielding
An ovation in grey
The crease of the fescue
The arc of the pine
Bend and break before it
In a most crooked line
Mantled eclipses
With sable designs
Spread shadow like poison
Through trembling vines
Now dusk is no refuge
For the storm still proceeds
With lightning that rends
Both the sky and the trees
The rocks split asunder
Where the fire takes hold
And the world burns...
In the cruel blade of midday
Now rages forth unyielding
An ovation in grey
The crease of the fescue
The arc of the pine
Bend and break before it
In a most crooked line
Mantled eclipses
With sable designs
Spread shadow like poison
Through trembling vines
Now dusk is no refuge
For the storm still proceeds
With lightning that rends
Both the sky and the trees
The rocks split asunder
Where the fire takes hold
And the world burns...

Let's meet at the beach
September sun, late summer still holding on
Days grow shorter, nights become long
Let's meet at the beach, we have free reign
Crowds have disappeared, less stress, less strain
A pleasant walk, you & I on the sand
Enjoying life's finer pleasures, please take my hand
The air is cooler, the ocean quite warm
Out in the distant sky, we see a brewing storm
Were not discouraged, we faced many storms throughout our run
We learn to trust more fully, and to us that's second to none
Days grow shorter, nights become long
Let's meet at the beach, we have free reign
Crowds have disappeared, less stress, less strain
A pleasant walk, you & I on the sand
Enjoying life's finer pleasures, please take my hand
The air is cooler, the ocean quite warm
Out in the distant sky, we see a brewing storm
Were not discouraged, we faced many storms throughout our run
We learn to trust more fully, and to us that's second to none

night and day
Day & Night
It was still dark morning when I left
the nightclub, a place where one can
be sure not to meet reality
I saw a river of people coming out of
the subway filling streets with heavy
steps and murmur
as daylight came, neon light shivered
and became ugly words on buildings
reality had blinded them
At the end of the day, as night sunk
like a blanket on towns, people were
going home from workplaces
The neon light came back on tell
a story of an alternative where all
is fake, like Ronaldo's scoring...

Opportunity is gone
Storm washed away roads
Roads were closed, canceled my trip
My one chance for change
Roads were closed, canceled my trip
My one chance for change

Trees of Mellow
Leaves fall from the trees of mellow,
with a simple blow of natures hello.
Announcing to be known,
for it was mother natures evil clone.
All alone.
Alone to itself, yet not to the rest.
Nature opens herself to the world,
to relieve some excessive stress.
Stress that plays chess with human life.
Checking many, but few to none.
Getting too near would enhance ones fear.
Lone and behold, but stay in control.
Gusty winds cometh to sendeth,
vastly stretched miles.
Rotation is evident, yet very...

Storm
In the night your electricity
flashes upon my vein's doorsteps.
Your thunder's roar roams
my brain's craving cortex.
You are here.
No longer protected by just near.
Rain thrashes my ground,
liquid lust.
Flashing, roaring, drenching.
Invitationless.
Away blows my dress,
naked plains of flesh.
To receive your storm.
My deep soul severely
transformed.
flashes upon my vein's doorsteps.
Your thunder's roar roams
my brain's craving cortex.
You are here.
No longer protected by just near.
Rain thrashes my ground,
liquid lust.
Flashing, roaring, drenching.
Invitationless.
Away blows my dress,
naked plains of flesh.
To receive your storm.
My deep soul severely
transformed.

Evening Fright
Scarecrow
The witness of silent lightning
Hears the first crack of thunder
As the animals flee
Rain starts to fall
The sky breathes
Her whipping cool breeze
Cracks of lightning and trees
Resound admist
The rumbling angry skies
While in candlelit houses
The humbled for mercy plead
The witness of silent lightning
Hears the first crack of thunder
As the animals flee
Rain starts to fall
The sky breathes
Her whipping cool breeze
Cracks of lightning and trees
Resound admist
The rumbling angry skies
While in candlelit houses
The humbled for mercy plead

Musty Wallpaper #2
In the shadows of the night, where the wind moans,
stands a dark and solemn castle.
Inside there are secrets from a dark past
and echoes of screams in a late lament.
The dark hallways stained with blood
They tell stories of unhappy love.
In the main hall a feast of horror
where death dances in macabre fervor.
Candles flicker, shadows come to life,
the full moon looks on pale and haughty.
In the broken mirror reflections of pain
reveal scenes of ancient gore.
The clock strikes, midnight has arrived.
Spirits...
stands a dark and solemn castle.
Inside there are secrets from a dark past
and echoes of screams in a late lament.
The dark hallways stained with blood
They tell stories of unhappy love.
In the main hall a feast of horror
where death dances in macabre fervor.
Candles flicker, shadows come to life,
the full moon looks on pale and haughty.
In the broken mirror reflections of pain
reveal scenes of ancient gore.
The clock strikes, midnight has arrived.
Spirits...

the wrinkles of the wind
my babuska
used to talk to the wind
used words
strange and silent
she asked favors from the wind
she blew in the ears of the wind
things the wind should do
and the wind shook the curtains
threw everything on the floor
the wind was excited
to the sound of my babuska's voice
used to talk to the wind
used words
strange and silent
she asked favors from the wind
she blew in the ears of the wind
things the wind should do
and the wind shook the curtains
threw everything on the floor
the wind was excited
to the sound of my babuska's voice

blown away
the sun lost his dominance
as thick clouds bullied him into shadow
turning afternoon to complete darkness
no thunder...no lightning...no rain
only the gods breath in full fury
& things meant to stand tall & proud became horizontal
abasing themselves in the face of it
fallen trees & sundered limbs covered the streets
those caught unaware
{among them...my daughter...}
forced to dodge flying debris
we had no warning
& with one loud boom...power gave out
my tiny basement with its crowding...
as thick clouds bullied him into shadow
turning afternoon to complete darkness
no thunder...no lightning...no rain
only the gods breath in full fury
& things meant to stand tall & proud became horizontal
abasing themselves in the face of it
fallen trees & sundered limbs covered the streets
those caught unaware
{among them...my daughter...}
forced to dodge flying debris
we had no warning
& with one loud boom...power gave out
my tiny basement with its crowding...

A Cold Emptiness
As the sunlight dies
In cold empty darkness
Stillness of the grave
What the ruins remember
Through time and memory
Death appears through the windblown storm
Where the flame is eternal
Awakening
In cold empty darkness
Stillness of the grave
What the ruins remember
Through time and memory
Death appears through the windblown storm
Where the flame is eternal
Awakening
