Inevitability

The night
scattered its stars
across an asphalt sky.
We, you and I, stood
at the edge
of the precipice
watching.
Behind us,
stood the powers that be
counting down from ten.

Sitting Still

Passersby ask me
Why I sit the way I do
Buddha in their eyes

Power Lifting

Betray the promise
Lie to those who trusted you
Feed them to the wolves

Destiny

These gossamer wings
Have nowhere to fly today
Folded on my back
So, I sit and watch the sky
Waiting for the wind to change
