i am a song / i am what you perceive me to be
A smile can be warm like that of a good friend and it can be mocking or plastic and full of malicious intent Words have the power to touch the heart it can both seal its wounds and tear it apart Hands can touch the physical plane to pick up those who have fallen or cause excruciating pain Water is just like everything else it can make life and take it, form shells and shatter them Life brings beautiful and terrible things Death takes our happiness and suffering I am not bad neither am I good I am my own life's miracle and plague I have healed just as much as I have wounded I have the will and power to be either hero or crook But what we are to others or ourselves depends on where we choose to look

Hollowing Pericardium
a love as deep as the universe ever creating ever expanding with the space to live the space to die within the warmth of existence

In Search of a Sun
van Gogh stares into the distance the trees darken into piercing towers the moon is the color of a smile the night whirls with his thoughts the houses lie beyond reality's reach I stare into the distance within arm's reach but not wthin the will's the inkwell's darkness folds into itself as often as the stars collapse until its point pierces an eye that is no longer there
