A small gesture ignites Bloodshot fiery green eyes. All the hatred for so long concealed Is in a single instant revealed. Her thin lips twists in bitter contempt, Retorting with venomous words All the old lame excuses That ingrained habit presents. The unexpected outburst of feelings Freezes his face into a pathetic expression. His sinking heart, searching for meaning, Feels the loss of every connection. As all strings are severed, As every link is destroyed, He falls into a dark, deep void.

Fiery green eyes
I’ve been looking back Staring at my path **** it didn’t go my way I’m haunted by ghosts from yesterday I’ve walked on someone else’s steps They led me into this trap A prison of my own make I was encased by my mistakes Those who led me here are now gone They left me in this pit alone Shivering with every bone They’ve destroyed any idea of home I need to escape from my past My youth is not going to last Got to break from this cell with a blast I feel death is coming so fast I know there is no way to return The old trail is now burned So I must find a new path through the ashes And look for where a beacon of hope flashes

The trap
Beavers and hogs are into some **** They see rats above, flying on wings. Pumpkin seeds are scratching their feet, They don’t know what the future brings Old rotten apples always cajole Fresh oranges with some trickery. Like papayas, they fall into a hole, Cooking a juice of pure misery. Ancient mushrooms fluoresce in blue, Deep in a forest under crescent sky. Pungent flowers of sulfur bloom, Bringing the coarsest monkeys to die. Suddenly, the old elks awake Oblivious to their common mistake.

Old elks sonnet
I woke up from comatose For taking a strong dose Of some freak herbal tea My hands were feeling cold They looked wrinkled and old From sleeping by the sea Then I was told By a lady wearing gold That I needed new clothes For I was shattering my teeth She said I could get some gloves At a warehouse down the road And shoes for my feet So, I drove my shopping cart Down the Street of the Destitute There to the old mart To get me some mittens and boots On the end of the road, I saw A decrepit brick wall Where the old market stood It was forsaken place Long left in disgrace With windows of rotten wood I walked through the parking ground Until by the gates I found An ancient pig as guard I knew I was out of luck When my vehicle got stuck And I couldn’t run a yard As the crinkled hog struck I quickly tried to duck Behind the shopping cart The beast jumped like a goat And it almost got my throat But I escaped by a hair I promptly offered him some wine Because I knew that a swine Would drink without a care My gift worked out fine The mean creature got benign My neck it would spare The guard got drunk as a skunk And I quickly dived in the junk As a stuporous pig laid on the ground In a pile of scraps, I sunk And amidst the waste I found A pair of gloves for cold weather And boots of shiny leather

Street of the Destitute
My energy levels are down Batteries depleted A broken robot stuck on the ground Beaten and defeated I’m close to self-destruction I need an electrocution A power charge flowing through my circuits Toasting my bits, baking my pieces Someone, please help me Erase my memory And reset me free

Energy levels are down
Sailing an aluminum can through the plastic ocean, Cruising across narrow passages and dangerous ways, Rocking and rolling under the continuous motion Of dark poisonous mercury waves. The boiling sun elevates a sulfuric mist from the sea, Its torching heat blisters his darkened skin. His mouth stings as if full of bees, A desert of fluorescent water, not a drop to drink. Zombie sharks surround the little cask, Decaying fish breaths make him dizzy. Corroded by acid, the tin starts to crack, Escaping certain doom will not be easy. Rowing, rowing, faster, faster, He seeks the long-lost Island of Bliss. The only place where he can find Her And perish from a venomous kiss.

The lost Island
I don’t care about dying I don’t even feel this life is mine I just want a restart To get it right this time I wish I were born again Back in 1982 So, I could erase my mistakes And do the things I didn’t do I wonder what it would be like Living from my guitar Singing songs from my heart Travelling under the stars Now I’m bolted to an office chair Enclosed by partition walls Losing my graying hair Tormented by phone calls I wish I were born again Back in 1982 So, I could erase my mistakes And do the things I didn’t do I should’ve never let go Those deep emerald eyes That sunny smile that shone So beautifully under blue skies Now, I’m hiding in the kitchen Pursued by my two ex-wives Running around like a chicken While dodging flying knives I wish I were born again Back in 1982 So, I could erase my mistakes And do the things I didn’t do

Back in 1982
Hey, New Western Oligarchs! We can’t travel on the rockets you fly To take the fortunate to Mars And leave our own planet to die. You spread misinformation That inflames our younger minds Crushing a whole generation, You ruin the future of mankind. You level mountains for rare metal, Seeking digital immortality. You break our Earth for petrol, Your greed finds no morality. But in the end, you’ll see You are of the same dust as me.

New Western Oligarchs
Dark clouds gather in my head Forecasting a thunderous storm They cover the blue sky A thick haze form Obscuring my mind Flashes explode everywhere They stun me I can’t see Thunders resound inside my skull Their thudding echoes make me so dizzy I feel like falling Freezing rain starts to pour It drips relentlessly from my eyes Cascading over my chest Frosting my heart I seek refuge in myself And contemplate the storm Trembling Waiting Letting it be Until it’s gone

The past is an illusion of the memory Don’t believe in a history That never was The present is a creation of the mind Your poor senses make you blind To what really is The future is only speculation Figure of your imagination It will never be Your failed reason Invents every season And chooses time instead of truth
