Conception Deception

Cheap art

or excellent craft

You decide

what floats the raft

 

Good intentions

hell repaved

Choice emboldened

—heaven saved

Left To Right

Preying on the truth

politics sets the trap

Isolating fact from fiction

always on attack

 

Their circles non-concentric

each area zero-sum

To tempt your fate with poison bait

—never to become

Hirudines

Parasites never worry

about the host

Sucking out the lifeblood

—spitting on the corpse

Exit Only

Thoughts once spoken

the bottle open

Genie tenured

—reentry closed

Deference To Rene’

Do you believe consciousness

a free state

Choice empowering the moment

strong

Neurons firing at your

discretion

Time unencumbered

—reality won

Truths Deception

Laughter hides more dread than tears

joy conceals a lasting fear

Fate to haunt each moment wished

—love beguiled with every tryst

Ode To Pandora

Some rocks you don’t turn over

some tales you never tell

 

Some lights you never throw the switch

—some broth you never chill

Westward Ho

You’ll get where you’re going

—if you don’t go too fast

Footsteps In The Hall

After midnight

the pendulum stalls

Chimes to deaden

as darkness calls

A clanking chain

the haunt begins

Till daylight threatens

—the shadows dim

Extempo

He was vulnerable

 only in the present

The past and future self-deposed

their fantasies atoned

Moments claim unto themselves

a singular refluence

Strength unnumbered past the count

—battle lines rezoned
