Today
The sun seems brighter today as I imagine you close my mind tells me, in reality it won't solidly affect me but, my heart disagrees and it's stubbornly trying to dance! under the cloth of this normal day

Change is in our pocket
The mundane can offer comfort, reassuring us with it's consistency Until a ripple, tired from its journey, hits us gently. Pushed along, our eyes are forced to reevaluate. Fear, no, excitement? now carries us forwards. Cast upon the shore, we long for the ride again. We cast our own stone this time, offering others the…

hates herself, she
she denies any love is truly hers The tears she cried have given up their usefulness anymore. As the paper peels from a forgotten guest room, The only sounds are the drippings from a leaking tub The echo helps her sing there sits as moon peeks a glow in tune. There lost between her memory and the walls I swear laughter…

Mother Creator
Mother Creator In a tumultuous, ocean vastness, Filled with gems and rainbows Heaven is overseen. Within its depths, Yet to been seen, Spontaneous combustible volcanoes keep secrets, of life and other means. A one celled amoeba, Begins a defining journey -aAdaptation was the key- As it climbed the coral "mountain" To the…

Tonight
For tonight I dine upon sorrow with the temptation of malice and closure ever present. Tonight I shall endure for tomorrow shall bring the fortune of opportunity, the wealth of growth...and the fortuity of uncertainty. Tonight I give to you in solitude...In hiding. Tonight's mental hum, delirious state, inebriated mind,…

A note to remind us all!
There are phrases like: "Tomorrow's another day" and "Anything can happen today" or "You never know what tomorrow will bring" or "Today can be whatever you make of it" and, they may all sound like Tired Cliches but, in a very real and deep way, THEY ARE NOT every day we are alive we can have the energy of hope to help see…

Wrote this about 20 odd years ago
Never shared this, maybe with my wife but that's about all, always thought it should be a song but never could find it's musical fit. Tell me what you think (i was about 20): Locked in a world that were his own thoughts He faced the mosaic that was his past, present, and future Confronted with the possibility of hostility…

Let's take the scenic route
Sometimes I feel like I'm happily riding along and the driver takes a wrong turn down a dark alley! that's the point at which I have to say somethin' (um, excuse me beauty boy, but I think you need to look at the map) when I was younger, I used to pretend to be less capable than I am (don't want to scare folks off) but, I…

Turns Me Around
I don't write about love, it's either there or it's not. If there's something in between, lust lost, If I was ever to rely on someone to be there always The truth is the lessons were the best I've got. There's no wonderful prince charming nor a super hero flying. There's no one brought up to be daring, clever, bold and…

I'll be Captain Obvious
Love that travels back and forth that's still the best feeling in the world! Like a spiral staircase, it can become an ascending loop :D <-- Captain O's face

Changing the pattern
Unless a person is living her days like a machine churning out material of the same design because it's a fabric factory and that's the best selling material, it seems like a good idea to do something else once the pattern has been firmly established! How many days does it take to convince a man you always love him? I'm…

"Story"
There is an idea. The more we remove ourselves from religion and spirituality the more we remove ourselves from myth. The more we embrace science the more our lives becomes a series of events punctuated by cold facts and numbers. We become binary code; a series of zeros and ones. With the human being removed from the…

Connected with pain
Connected with pain Connected not only to the needle Chained not only to the bed By force interwoven with silence Shackled onto loneliness Melted with fear Integrated with incomprehension Cry out for help But no one listens No one cares

Blind
Blind Running for my first photo gig Out of breath, black spots in my sight Became black clouds, bleedings in my eyes Clouding my view I saw it happening in my eyes I saw, I saw… I was going blind And there was nothing I could do to stop it The doctors confirmed my fear Shooting lasers in my eyes to slow the process down…

"Reach"
If this waking life is nothing but a dream then there is nothing to be. Nothing that can’t be undone or bound to soul. A dream within a dream like emptiness resting anxiously upon nothing. They do not speak but are aware of each other. Like scorned lovers they can only touch for fleeting moments. Yet in those instances…

right now not yet
I think I'm barely right here barely close but not quite touching or full-on maybe some running or smoothing waters over collapse goes the seizure but just not yet between us is only seeing each other the burn from desire melts the pieces that stay ready steady no not yet first suffocate to noises I don't often hear…
