Egos
not armies
destroy the Crown
Arrogance
reletting
the blood
The Emperor
naked
upon its back
Odysseus
in
— from the wood

Stars reflect
the light inside you
Their galaxy
our soul’s domain
New constellations
wait unchristened
To burn inside
— each heart to name
(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)
Embrace
the moment
forever alive
Hell
freezing over
— damnation proscribed
(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)
Sea change
written
— on the face of denial
(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)
Callous rows gone fallow
human touch embraced
Hate uprooted — Love replanted
tilled in Heaven’s grace
(Dreamdleep: February, 2024)
I’m tired of people
slinging hash
and calling it Haute Cuisine
The Emperor naked
behind the mirror
where truth still reigns supreme
Waiting for accolades
pity more apt
so they again can void
Leaving their excrement
out on display
— only the rats to enjoy
(The New Room: March, 2024)
Psychopath
Sociopath
Neuropath’s
remind
Every ‘path’
an open route
locked inside
our minds
Empathy
Antipathy
Pathological
liars
Waiting there
to mark the way
as circumstance
— requires
(The New Room: March, 2024)
Your wounds bleed past tomorrow
an inconvenient truth
Unsutured blame — till death reclaims
its healing absolute
(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)
Dying
the most private thing
anyone can do
Goodbye
said a final time
exit sign in view
Living
so attached to death
symbiotic twins
Leaving
with your soul alive
— blessed to rebegin
(Dreamleep: March, 2024)
Attract them
with tomorrow
but give them today
Entrance them
with verses
that pause and delay
The moment
resplendent
divorcing from time
To marry
with wonder
— those hoping to find
(The New Room: March, 2024)
