Sanguine in the meadows, he basks in memories of good company, resolved to reveal a nature he knew not. Riddled in a tale of trauma that brings irony: that something so simple could unwind the tapestry leading to his heart.

Deliverance
Elusive idealization— I yearn for it, beguiled by its seminal scope. I dig my fingers into its flesh as my past pulls me back in with cold, frayed hands, seeking to drown me in a chamber of oblivion— until the end of time. Or so it seems; as every mirage has its day, and reality is no exception— the construct of constructs we all imagine at once. Regardless of the outcome, I will see you all again under the ground.

Pinpoint
The fields of gold— Looking grave as past faces caught up quickly, smothering any presence with smoldering reminders. Alas, the echelons of memories stood tall, like soldiers steadfast, unwavering to the imminent fall. They remind him of his reflection, belabored by reality’s labor. Lines buried in sand, etched onto his head— burning coals of souls that throttle his legs into motion. He runs, and runs, coerced to send the sun his kinetic aspirations, to deflect and reflect, to dissolve prophecies beleaguered. For it is he who devises the Devil of his own doing.

Visage of Many
Dead, I sit in the midst of dread Dreary, amongst a precocious star Oh, look at how it flies by Light years from where I start As stagnant desires dance in limbo Enslaved to a vicarious libido I’ve done this rain dance before Deduced to a pointless chore It’s true I may never know How to crawl out of the row A legacy of confusion I’ve inherited from my fight And if time is a mere illusion Then there is no end in sight

Scream
A palette of every hue, tells a tale Visions of terrestrial views, we shall fail As a community, burdened by lust For green, in paper, until dust Vehicles in bloom, make the distance No question to intentions, incentives For a reality, structured in somethings A mere reflection, for greater summits In days such as this, in my mind Shrouded in willow green, I find Must I question, a beckoning call Before the season’s quilt, shall fall I am blinded, in peripheral vision To carry on, toward no provision For anyone, or anything in my way Until the white light graces me In my wake

Onward
Thy midnight blue sky Of mine She beckons me With gleaming stars And dreams afar I reach for the tune That suits me best As choirs of angels Watch Heaven at her crest She gently brings me down To Mother's slumber Her caressing is nigh As I relieve my sigh To enriched thoughts Beyond the medium Of which we are wrought

Oh, Mother
I can feel you in me Ravaging my mind Or so you think I've lived this a million times over Yet I can't seem to find a better way To acquire leisure and pleasure All I can say is When this is all said and done I'll settle the score to my tune For eons to come

Moon in Scorpio
this sickle is eager to find the sick better finish that unlaid track before it finishes you front to back dirt that lays beneath my feet cold and callous underneath as fertile as a boy without a home tongue in tact where's the wash i've wished would shroud over houses i've deserted in their wake end dispatch

crawl blind
Harmonious visions pry and **** False promises never deliver a nod Should I keep walking ahead? Cause time and space sure won't say

Trek of Ages
There was no struggle Just rounds of true death Inside a jungle With mutual breath Killers in armor Had come to take us To **** Mi Amor And thus and thus Our families were told With the rest of the world Another killer had siphoned Ill and infamy From an ideal Lasting an entire day That we will never Get to see
