Not Even the Night Can Save Us...
On the threshold of yet another
This something, not so distant…
Blurried visions, looking forward,
Wish this world were more persistent.
And the night sky, struck with
Lightning-like storms of stars,
Of hail, of haze,
Just lies there
Looking out.
Ignores the blues and clouds of daze…
Awaken from your slumber,
But stay here in your sleep.
Believe me when I tell you that...

Splendid was the Snow...
The lights, they twinkle
Like the stellar scintillation
And the nights, they chill
With disambiguation
Cuz the holiday cheer
Dissipates all fears
As reality looks right
Into your eyes
And remembrance holds
Your mittened hand
While you frolick
In the snow covered
Streets that lead us
Along the wrong directions
But always steer us back
Toward the warmth
Of yesteryear
Where life was...

The Mind: A Favorite Plaything
Lying still.
Fast awake
And the things in mind
Just overtake
The slumber
That keeps slipping
Over me.
Heavy thoughts
And floating words
A mixture made of
Visions blurred
As waning is my
Focus on this
Day.
Nite aright
And steadily
Comes and droops
Right next to me
But how do I escape
To slumber elsewhere?
Dream away
And far from here
The neverending sights:
So clearly...

Looking Back on those Childhood Days
Feeling free.
Fancy. Flighting.
This something here
Is so inviting…
Wish you coulda
Had
A taste of this?
Haha!
Well understand
The conversation
Done overlooked
Your demonstration
But I need so much
More than you could
Ever give
Oh why do we
Play the fool
Or rule the play
Or fool the rules
Whatever’s clever
Works for me
Right now…
And time will tell...

Under the Weather
I can hear the constant thoughts
pour out, like a wintry wall of rain.
And theres something calming ‘bout this
endless falling, in and out,
of Joy and Pain.
Nowhere to run
when it’s all coming down.
The noise is blurring all around.
Look up and cry, but don’t know why,
it’s going and fading,
into night right now…
Oh my, oh my… dear heart....
