At Death's Door
Pinky toes, uncut
dipping under, the other side of life
Nothing
I felt nothing, for you
neither for them, my blood
The kindle outwicked
a will, my own
Nothing
I see nothing, a memory
visuals of faces, nor places
Time slowed down
almost stopped, counting backwards
Nothing
I heared nothing, a silence
no voices, calling after my name
And I, for no one
whispered
remembered
cared
Love, hope and faith
were just letters unspelled
I seek no...

CHRONICLES OF OXY - HER DUPLICITY
as election nears D. Day
overtime translates standard
and I feel tired, not because of work
(oh no! not because of that)
but for the sensory overload:
loud voices
of the preening peacocks
online, on air
singing a chorous
off key, all sharp and pitchy;
visual abuse
of fake sincerity
with few vibrant colours
contrasting, inciting dyslexia
as a fad, feeling fashionistas;
rotten smell
of brewing conspiracy
mass hypnosis amidst awareness...

Bathe in my Mind
Test the temperature
Be sure it won’t burn you
Be careful
Take caution
This is a body of water
Foreign to your skin
Be sure you are sure
Be certain you are ready
To bathe in my mind
Be sure it won’t burn you
Be careful
Take caution
This is a body of water
Foreign to your skin
Be sure you are sure
Be certain you are ready
To bathe in my mind

If Pain Dripped Like Time Ticked
With each ticking of the clock
A drop of pain drains down
Pooling around my body in flood
An island in my own lifeblood
All I can see is the clock ticking
It's echoing booming clack
Dripping drops draining fast
I feel I may no longer last
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
The Ghosts start dancing
The bells start ringing
The heavens open
My heart starts singing ...
The parade of dead dreams shuffles past ...
All In chains and ankle irons
In regular procession...
A drop of pain drains down
Pooling around my body in flood
An island in my own lifeblood
All I can see is the clock ticking
It's echoing booming clack
Dripping drops draining fast
I feel I may no longer last
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
Tick Drip Tick Drip
The Ghosts start dancing
The bells start ringing
The heavens open
My heart starts singing ...
The parade of dead dreams shuffles past ...
All In chains and ankle irons
In regular procession...

Web Of Circumstance
Down in the valley of shadows lurks my withered soul
Cradled in moss and fungus left to rot under the black trees
Slowly disintegrating transforming back to energetic dust
Nearby a dulled key lays apart on a tri-color chain shedding rust
Lonely? Alone? Quarantined? Isolation? Singular?
Hidden in a world full of people unknowing
What adjective am I? Are you? What word describes your state?
(Mental? Physical? Relationship? Parental? Medical?)
What Pendant do you wear on your chest? Your forehead? Your soul?
Is it one word? Two? A...

Painter
Paint my body with your love
Use me as inspiration
I want to be your vision
Of the confusing balance of good and bad
My perfect moments tarnished by my imperfections
My flaws dulled by my perfection
Causing you to fall in love with my flowers
And ignore my thorns
Use me as inspiration
I want to be your vision
Of the confusing balance of good and bad
My perfect moments tarnished by my imperfections
My flaws dulled by my perfection
Causing you to fall in love with my flowers
And ignore my thorns

My little voice
In this moment
So quiet and peaceful
Is when I hear you clearly
Like a wind chime
You sing sweetly and lazily to me
So quiet and peaceful
Is when I hear you clearly
Like a wind chime
You sing sweetly and lazily to me

Me & My Mirror Is Me
I get the sensation of a life time intimate
And intrinsic observation of my appearance,
As I lay down my vision unto papers,
Drawing paths of dreams I once dreamed,
Catching leaves falling off from trees,
And birds singing in choir as the sun burn my eyes and skin
As I tempt to reach my gaze to where I can see the waves of branches,
When breezes pierce through trunks build and held strong by centuries,
As I breath scent of the living arising amid the sky and bring green to the eyes of bees
And flowers blooming as their nature has...
And intrinsic observation of my appearance,
As I lay down my vision unto papers,
Drawing paths of dreams I once dreamed,
Catching leaves falling off from trees,
And birds singing in choir as the sun burn my eyes and skin
As I tempt to reach my gaze to where I can see the waves of branches,
When breezes pierce through trunks build and held strong by centuries,
As I breath scent of the living arising amid the sky and bring green to the eyes of bees
And flowers blooming as their nature has...

Cold Moon
In between the deep breaths of life
In between the vibrations of the universe
In between the fractals of time itself
In between our very human cells
Perfectly ... within a moment of free prose ...
There is us ...
under a cold moon ...
In between the vibrations of the universe
In between the fractals of time itself
In between our very human cells
Perfectly ... within a moment of free prose ...
There is us ...
under a cold moon ...

In The Midst
The wind out paces
The cold unforgiving ground
Freezing itself
As my heart it surrounds
The cold unforgiving ground
Freezing itself
As my heart it surrounds

When I Used To Bleed Music
I used to noodle my 6-string for hours
Dripping platinum and gold on the carpet
To no one but myself night after night
Drinking in it's sweet surrendered dulcet
Strumming louder and louder faster
Accenting and pumping the beat along
So fast Id cut my skin and bruise my hand
Wizardly charms rang off sure and long
The music made whole by my passion
Ash body and rosewood neck caressed
Thought to note and back again and again
Finding that perfect tone in frets perfectly kissed
The buildup to the...

Shifts in Perspective
growing ever disillusioned, hence
this unnatural precarious precision,
our pin-pointed voices mattering
to no one save a handful close by;
the supernatural stamping
with tendency of falling toward
my already fractured heart;
splinters to shards to whole,
help me capture this
impossible moment fleeting,
as you know they all are;
learn to embrace one another
without pretended desire
only acting in earnest empathy
until we leave this place for the next
this unnatural precarious precision,
our pin-pointed voices mattering
to no one save a handful close by;
the supernatural stamping
with tendency of falling toward
my already fractured heart;
splinters to shards to whole,
help me capture this
impossible moment fleeting,
as you know they all are;
learn to embrace one another
without pretended desire
only acting in earnest empathy
until we leave this place for the next
