The box: a cradle for the delivery
of new life born into this world

or

the space where a man may wander aimlessly,
lost by his lack of self-control.

Gently loved,
I was,
A shadow of what
I craved,
Help I sought,
in vain—
When hard roads
split the twilight,
You turned away,
not toward.

Drooping beneath the weighty rain—
Each drop—a Lover's Touch—
A Whisper, or a Revelation—
Too vast to clutch—too much—

The World—a stark and shaded pane—
Of Purity—and Loss—
Its Wounds concealed—yet bleeding still—
A mournful, shrouded Cross—

She trails her Veil—a Soggy Script—
A Tale without a Start—
The Clouds, the Trees, the Voice of Night—
Have vanished from the Heart—

The Door is locked—the Key—unknown—
The Anguish—hidden—deep—
The Knife—the Gravity of Breath—
The Taste—before we Sleep—

A Child—with Anklets—Bone and Bead—
A Mother—shamed—ensnared—
Their Hopes—a Candle, flickering faint—
Yet—Silence leaves them Scared—

The Soul absorbs the Mystic Fog—
A Lie—within its Clay—
The Veins of Time—wither and fray—
And Breath—expires—away—
This is an oldie, I feel blessed to find such treasures. Have a great day everyone.
the eagles flying
to hotel california
I drink pink champagne

the mirrored ceiling
reflects their lyrical flight
music in mountain

the doorman smiling
as you check out this dark night
you can never leave
You always beat me
At every game we played
So when I broke your heart
It was only natural that
You'd shatter mine
Effortlessly
Checkmate
Sticks and stones,
blood and bones and words can definitely hurt you.
