Have you ever looked evil in the eye?


           I have


    And he winked


A tone as smooth as velvet

A grin of a boy

His lips parted seas,

of churning lava

But I saw a pool,

     to dip my toes

He splashed playful twists and turns

    Till I was soaked

And drops trickled down my skin,

    scathed by sin

That murky tank of burns.
This was on my old page & I didn’t want to lose it as part of my collection, so here it is.

For it has been
Time,
Who's sudden coincidences,
Her glaring indifferences,
Which in the grand
Model count seconds
As the smallest
Increment,
Has failed to account,
Whether by years or
Decades, centuries,
All history,
That the perception
Of reality,
Is always
Late.

Fish would not be caught
if they could keep their mouths shut.
Same deal with people.

Endless me
Indefinite thoughts
Its never easy to justify self destruction
Calculated worth and value
Label givers
Depression isn't always dark and sad
The sun never goes down
people never change, only faces
This place is broken
Generations on repeat
Nobody's a hero here, people can't save themselves
You have to survive first
Breath when it hurts
Wear clothes
Look out windows
Then one day you are walking forward
I use to think I needed an end
Now I only see endless

"X"
doesn't necessarily
mark the spot

sometimes
"G"
does

if you can find it...

We fell in love by chance,
We stay in love by choice.

One truth
One consistent voice
One authentic face
One vision
One clear perception
One profound impression
You are naturally beautiful when you are oneself

Do I know crazy
I know him well
Too much time
In and out of hell

Even the strongest
Can't keep
The sky from falling
My motor's running
My mind keeps stalling

Here I am
If there’s anything you need
My heart is racing
My brokenness is in the lead!
