A Moment Reborn

Waiting for the world

to come round to him,

his words got stored away

 

Waiting for time

to admit its mistake,

the needle in the hay

 

Lying in wait

for a moment reborn,

distilled in silence aged

 

The devil in fear

of the truth coming out

—eternity restaged

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)

Nothing Left To Lose

Writing to a standard,

embattled in time,

his words both sparse and dire

 

All targets in sight,

his focus most dear,

new readers to inspire

 

His argument made,

with phrases reborn,

the verdict theirs to choose

 

All time on the run,

his will to attack

—with nothing left to lose

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)

No Longer In Doubt

Pushing his will against the status quo,

all time began to move

 

Scouring through each ominous lie,

veracity behooved

 

Giving with nothing left to give,

his soul turned inside out

 

Tomorrow dancing openly with yesterday’s dreams

—today no longer in doubt
