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)

Sometimes …

there’s one poem

that opens your mind

And clears out

the cobwebs

that gather in kind

The words

defy entropy  

speaking as one

And pushing you

forward

— their mission is done

 

(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)

We’ve all been crippled

in different ways

To hobble or stumble

 alone in our pain

No one is reprieved

as years take their toll

Till that day we return

one body — one soul
