In Summer SunThat I could stand inside this house I built, and watch the furnishings move out; Each piece in colors picked by someone else, Each piece in flight, quiet as a mouseIn Summer Sun
That I could use my own two hands Break every window, door, and shelf; Watch it all turn white, watch it fade, And burn the shell right where it stands
That You'd refuse to take what's left And Your competitor to do the same; To sleep in summer sun beneath the trees I knew, and dreaming muse.
That, if I had just one prayer.


Sidestepand the page today is like lips unkissed, like a night of dry heaves, like a taxi missedSidestep
the blank white calls out for inky prose, for wit, rhyme and feeling in a liquid flow
and though I ache to filll up that space, the pen quivering racehorse-like in place
naked knees tucked in that awkward soccer-player pose form a sinkhole into which all my idle thoughts go.


A Little Bit Zen NowOn nights like this I wonder how it'd be to go the way of vapor. No ego now or personality, I'd be the background, lacking shape.A Little Bit Zen Now
Open a machine up wide and I'd be found buried, deep inside where one cog vanishes among thousands: not so much accepted as implied.


OasisThere from the black and the monitor glow, the safe and calm oasis, I look back although I know I won't see what I would: your eyes shining back at me, half-slitted against sleep.Oasis
I looked for you in all the places you went to find yourself, and though I found Lisane, Astarael, and more, the echo of your passage went too deep for me to follow.

Your rampant use of subtle imagery makes me smile.
And so do you.

The Lord said "Ask and you shall recieve" ..terms and conditions apply..
There is no instinct like that of the heart. ~Lord Byron
If love is an apple the flesh is the sin.

~My declaration embedded deep under my skin
A permanent reminder of how it began
No hesitation when I am commanded to strike
You need to know that you're in for the fight of your life
You will be shown how I've become
Indestructible~
