Every sip I take
Every bad choice I make
Nothing makes me forget
That every single time
..
I break

FLY
In a dark world,
where the light comes from only
within me,
and none elsewhere.
I limp with swollen feet
and tired eyes.
Tired of the betrayal,
tired of the failure,
tired of the hate.
Amidst the blinding pain,
and the screaming angels,
I decide to fly.

Sometimes we need to bend reality, be different, and change our lives drastically for the better.

I open my mouth

like a cherished cherry

violent and vivid vermilion

Words like a lovely lemon

acerbic and acidic arts

They fly

Loud enough —

to crack or cleave

curse or cut

****** battlefield

of my verbal violence

left lingering

I always open my mouth

and let them OUT

The flames rose
as history burned,
and memory settled into ash

The smoke carrying away
all reasons why
—dying embers of the past

(Hell's Canyon: June, 1993)
