Toll Gate

Hiding in

a shadow

 

The light

forever near

 

My world is

pothole bound

 

Restraining

hope with fear

 

Dirt roads

of my memory

 

Training wheels

unsure

 

Rolling forward

falling back

 

Beyond

— the lion’s roar

The Fusion Of Time

If the past’s

not alive

The future

is dead

 

With memory

starving

Hope’s promise

unfed

 

What yesterday

gives us

Tomorrow

awaits

 

All hope

in the transfer

Of destiny’s

— fate

Dry Well

Writing

with my head

but

not my heart

 

My spirit

an orphan

alone

— and apart

Nothing But Memories

Left

with nothing

but heartache

— we run from the pain

 

Left

with nothing

but promises

— the words in refrain

 

Left

with nothing

but yesterday

— tomorrow a lie

 

Left

with nothing

but memories

— a final goodbye

Wind Blown Sand

Time …

the enigmatic

trap

 we’re all caught within

Storm Seed

My slanguage

keeps the fire hot

my feet against the coals

 

My slanguage

what the critics hate

new venom to extol

 

My slanguage

whether read or sung

its message still the same

 

My slanguage

seeding my rebirth

— lost within the rain

Breaking Through

Painfully beautiful …

oxymoronic

The quiet so loud

— all parameters die

Escape Clause

Writing

is but

an escape

for the soul

 

Freeing

our passions

making

— us whole

Semper Ibi

He stood by

my cradle

And followed

my hearse

Unlocking

two portals

Both blessing

— and curse

North Of Boston

Today

 I decided

not to rhyme

 

The words

in volleys

poorly formed

 

Predicates

outcast

 covers smashed

 

Their accents

bouncing

 meanings lost

 

Today

I decided

not to rhyme

 

Appeasing

some

beyond the fence

 

Connections

broken

  phrases served

 

Playing tennis

without

— a net
