Everything’s turned out so good

Just like I always said it would

I got more riches than one man should claim

I even got back my ole’ good name

I just might make it to the Hall of Fame

Every one a my critic’s been put to shame

It all turned out so good

it was truly a beautiful

sight to see

as I lied on the ground

looking up

at the bright blue sky

the planes cutting through

a downpour of jumpers

parachutes opening up

like dandelions hundreds

of them airborne

falling to earth

from passing planes

others dying

The crossing ahead
The bridge from behind.

The struggles and fight
Happiness and horrors.

Pain and sorrows.

All shall be one
for they

Vividly embracing the view of a single window.
colors soft and enlightening.

Greens blues and yellows
Beauty through one single window

Changing the view of many windows.

Through deepened dark pupils
the art takes it's form.

Weeping willows blow harshly and waters flood high
is a window now broken.

white lines

propped on my morning elbow
dust trapped the warm sunlight reflected in your mirror
i woke to realize it was spring

through the space under your blinds
the sun laid siege on the very edges of our bodies
outlining the ridge of your ribs peaked hip bones smooth dip into

If I could speak a word and shape it

Think of all the things I’d make it

Blues and greens and purples too

So many options what should I do?

A little romance and something queerer

Horror reflects love like a mirror

A human face with human hands

Long curvèd horns my word demands

I give

I Tried to Write a Sonnet Once

Your fantasies and darkest dreams
Take me to a world that is unknown
Attack the fear inside of me
Take me to places that I refuse to go.

These fantasies full of desire
I cannot force my lonely heart to leave
Burning candles

The Humans Became Ash Peppered into the Flume

With a flash of great white light (almost heavenly) and a deafening boom  

The humans became ash peppered into the flume.


Water water become stagnant where you sit  

We are like snowflakes: all alike yet different in our own ways.

If heaven exists we will reform in our faulted bodies.

Every time I close my eyes I remember the good times
  • Sometimes those are moments I long to forget
  • It saddens me to know they are nothing but memories now
  • I can no longer create new memories with those I held so dear
  • Some have abandoned me and

    I'm tired I can no longer fight.
  • I want to give in to the darkest night.
  • I've tried so hard but I'm at my end.
  • There is but one that my heart can mend.
  • But he won't come and save me.
  • My pain he can never

    I am a stranger to myself.
  • Who's refection do I see?
  • No one seems to recognize.
  • No one seems to notice.
  • I am but a wall.
  • A piece of scenery.
  • I am undiscovered by all.
  • I slowly disappear fade away.

    Black and blue are not my favorite colors.
  • But black and blue are the colors I wear.
  • I'm tired of looking through this haze.
  • Someone save me I'm drowning I can't see.
  • I live in my own world.
  • I can't escape.
  • I use to
