But to you
I cry in the space that is filled with you Guitar strings beautiful run through it too What I can What I have What you want I will But to you I could be anyone anyone nothing

invisible energy from elevation
When I returned from the mountains, New life instantly bloomed within a dying fire. From darkness burst incredible lights. Showed a path seldom spoke of. But I knew the way. Getting there just takes awhile sometimes. But what happened out there? What happened in that picture perfect wilderness? I think I rediscovered my…

Free the West Memphis 3
Take me as I am with the dust filled history of youths violent swarm. I stood in the streetlight glow and breathed life hard. I threw my arms to the sky and I screamed “NOW!!” But this is just a memory A sharp towering building crashed down and swept with it, my honor. The door slammed shut. Echoing. I sink so low on days…

Invisible Price - A Poem About My Job
Invisible Price American heroes Hidden from view Shuffle the halls Of this home And countless others Like living dead On instinctual patrol Spent ammunition From wars nobody won Shells of shiny soldiers Once rolled off Proud assembly lines Only to be shipped off And stripped of their stars Stripes and souls In some frosty…

pawns
Do you believe we are pawns of Eve? Do you believe in destiny? the powers that be? Fate and free will each trying to take hold straining and struggling vying for control Do you believe in an afterlife? retribution for the damned a just reward for all your strife? The hairs on your head are counted? Seek and ye shall find?…

The Glacier Griz (non-fiction)
Rough draft, but figured I'd share... (also copying and pasting in here really destroys formatting) The Glacier Griz “Bear!” I shout while jamming my index finger into the windshield hard enough to hurt. Crossing the road just ahead of our truck is an enormous specimen with rich chocolate fur; a male black bear in the…

breakthrough forever
They set up camp in the hills. Riders looking for new lands. In the twilight they share stories of war. Peace seldom spoken. In the light of dawn there was only three left. The loner headed east. To die and find belief. Without water he goes insane. Sacrifice.

Just put it in the middle
I used to feel like I kept what was most important at the center of my life and yet these days it doesn't feel like that so now I must retrace my days to find out where I lost my true focus was it after the kids were born? did I shift it then because the Autism issue made it necessary? or, did I lose bits of it gradually…

please don't wake me up if im still sleeping
I thought it was the most beautiful dream I've ever seen But then I woke up to you still smiling back at me. I sank into your eyes And experienced true peace. This fire came from nowhere And I hope it lingers on. Such a change of pace To write a happy song. And when I drown in your endless eyes Don't throw me a line. Let…

Available for free, the track "Golden Mean" seems to be the sleeper…

you look fine
You look out of place here You look as if no one’s found you yet You look like you don’t have eyes You don’t look blind You look like you’ve left things behind You look as if you wonder why Few answers here, fewer questions yet Don’t see you asking anyway Don’t see you care Don’t see you have anything at all to say Wonder…

infinity pools
Ancient keepers of the lake Singing sweet songs to help us escape. Until the night comes let's celebrate. Sleep is time for unconscious illusions. Into infinity pools On the side of the mountain, We slip into midnight while we close our eyes. Within our dreams we are free. Five mile road. No signs In the heart of the…

sepia eyes
Everything has been given this certain shade I can't explain. And I don't want to get away. This sweet escape. I saw your photograph. Innocence from the past. A look on your face like you once believed. Funny how quick you are to deceive. But I'm up on the mountain. And I'm not coming down. Insane little ants that you are.…

ashes to ashes
in sight you’ll find a forever light glowing, maybe calling your name leaving a space to wrap yourself up in cozy, warm silent I stared at the book all night without the nerve to open it the title, “Your Future” seemed far too foreboding far too reckless maybe another time the heat lifted and a cool breeze swept the room…

separate
a series of small steps quietly paved the way to this precipice and while the regrets are currently floating, in the depths, where it counts, i couldnt be prouder late nights and early mornings spent sharing dreams, instead of having them similar souls, our paths seemingly intertwined, yet clearly divergent but ive spent…
