With wings of steel
I cannot fly away with you
So leave me here alone
as I drag my wings along.
With a heart made of stone
I cannot love you like you wish me too
So leave me here alone-
As I listen to the slow beat of the

Living in this stage of wonder
with wanton lust I ponder
mysteries for the investigation
imagination dancing in the atmosphere
a dance we dance somewhere out there
a closeness yet so far away
the unknown beckons calls from afar
the world of possibilities are daunting
your secret

Ode to the wisdom of the weary
With eyes wide open and hearts closed off
Who thinks of love with thoughts so dreary-
who knows exactly when to let go.
ode to the ones not willing nearly
To ever say anything other than

Fear
Only
Me. alone
he is not here.
A fierce storm invades
from where his warmth denies.
Watching his words fall like lies
his stoic mask falls to the ground
eyes betraying with a single tear.
I close my eyes so it's only a

Slumbering trees
The world awakens
But the sun don’t shine-
The moon sets fire to the world
A glow of silvery power.
The river ahead me
Beats at the ground
But can’t replace the warmth
Everything so cold around me

Perched upon the swings and slides
Children both; one hides one finds.
Sluggish children no where to be found
where metal and iron shoots from the ground.
and best of all the screams of glee;
from the child upon his knees
He closes his eyes and counts to three.
Thinking where is he?

so the world can't see the undoing
that has
become me.
Barbed edges frayed linings;
coupled with lipstick traces
spent gazes
is what comprises my countenance
these days.
I stumble by
while the world sleeps
remembering home
but all I long

out in Etoile Texas
Jimmy plays an out-of-tune Stella
(the kind Montgomery Ward once sold
for twenty bucks a pop).
After a swig of Busch Light
from a red plastic cup
he sings “Your Cheatin' Heart.”
There's usually a few folks around
when he holds court.

I feel the heat rise up from hell
Breaking through the concrete street where I lie
Reminding me of the perpetual pain I will endure if I do not wake up
The ground starts to crumble around me
Leaving me with nowhere to go
I feel their claws tear up my insides
I look down

As my hands start trembling
I can feel the world crumbling around me
Am I dreaming?
Or have I lost all control?
Visions of black snow
Feeling of blood slowly dripping down my chest
Are these eyes no longer mine?
Has the silence once again taken me over?
I will never again see this world in

Die in my arms
This heart of lust
Travel with me
To the never ending
Kiss me once more
Before we vanish
Cover my soul with darkness
To hide my scars
I wish we could be together
Can't we just hide from reality?
Live
