things pass from knowledge
the ways, calendars, ciphers
the truths of a time
without a context
just artifacts dug from dirt
puzzles to our eyes
Just things

Ruts
19 Jun 2012 Leave a comment
there are ruts aplenty
in this world
and many frightened people
trodding them
never thought I’d be
one of them
but a moment’s
inattention and I fell in step
time to make a break
Done with mirrors

alter egos, shades
mirrored to infinity
dreams there and not there
shadows echo through
walking parallel paths
Falling Down
17 Jun 2012 Leave a comment
the sky is falling
her sky has fallen
all the fairytales held dear
all her castles in the air
are now nowhere
all the fairytales have
fallen down
from the sky
fallen down
and she could cry
innocence met with doom
reality came but all
too soon.
Where to go

she dug the hole deep
walls of dirt on every side
still, no place to hide
restless

she’s feeling cornered
restless expectant feeling
runs instead of walks
to get there sooner
finding nothing worth the race
barren landscape waits
Yellow rose…

simple yellow rose
lay low the mighty soldier
praise sung by lone star
Shattered

the priceless vase slipped
oh the pieces, the pieces
let it slip- grasp failed
oh where to begin
shards scattered in darkest night
too few pieces found
Red river running

the sun impaled on the
mountain’s spear
sent red rivers running down
his craggy face
swallowed greedily by
the deepening shadow below.

Poets doomed, entombed
prize covered promised coffin
mind soared now heart sore.
