Clouds Begin Gathering:

I am as far away from pompous as one will ever be

It’s just those poetic words come swirling into my head from multi colored seas

Then large black rain clouds begin their gathering and if

Landslides

Landslides in the name of love

Under avalanches of her heartache

Her hills heave my earthquakes

Her fire colored dust sedates me

SOW ALONE

Stand alone in winter freeze

As autumn robs your leaves

Shade against the summer heat

Sway alone in springtime breeze.

Then out

Six Foot From Death

As the cities first breath breathes by the fog yawn towers and

the street light steam life signs headlights signals green

pre-heated bodies babies and exhausted screams.

Given Gods

Float

I hope you float

to a feeling that will last for all time

there's a world above your fears

where there are no more tears

so try to let go and float

Wave to me as you rise

a little higher in the sky

I'll be looking for a sign

Go on and touch

I laugh

as I erase your joke from my life

with a click of some buttons.

You are now completely gone from me.

Stay blocked un-friended and away.

I banish you to the coldness

of the vast cyberspace.

Good luck with the hunt for new prey

as your ego is wounded

by my deletion of you.

The Man With No Name

The man who never was came to my door.

He sang a story of lost love and apple trees.

I was fourteen. He was close to thirty-four.

He asked for nothing and kept with his smile.

It was snowing but he didn't seem to mind.

He said he would only stay a while.

He blinked

PRELUDE

Another cigarette brings back memories
A break a fall a burning retrospect.
The story starts again

Lonely compensation
Or divine inspiration
The voices in my head?

Atrocities in the name
Of never ending happiness
And a love so inspiring the

Pull my hair and kick at my feat.

Burn my flesh with you're raging heat.

Throw me to the ground; cause me to sleep.

Turn your cheek and ignore my weep.

Push me away into your lonesome cage-

Only to show me ones familiar rage.

Dare not

The lines sink deep into your skin

unfolding they etch a portrait of where you've been

all this time hiding under your palms where life lingers

stretching like grape vines towards the map on your face

with eyes that gaze far into a limitless space

your hands reach high with destiny's lines burned into them
