Staring into the twilight
A yellowish orange glow
Resigned to the horizon
By entering below
My line of sight
My rhythm; flow
To wherever it decides to go
And if with patience
It does not show
Then flip the script
And take control

Come autumn, leaves fall
Many, not all
Making way for changes in time
The seasons blend in
They end and begin
When the wind stiffens up on a dime
The sky turns to gray
When winter comes way
In a fury, out on the line
Just on the cusp
With no one to trust
Like a villain, committing a crime

He hears it all with covered eyes
He knows what has been said
The tears, they flow, from bloodshot eyes
Now all he sees is red
He cries and cries to no avail
The worlds on fire
The systems failed
Wrong is what needs getting fixed
High moral standards
Are what’s sorely missed
I must admit
I’m not impressed
At how issues now
Have been addressed
The powers that be
Can’t bare the blame
But there is no change
If there is no change

Oh butterfly 🦋
With wings spread wide
In leopard skin
Now full in stride
Draped in lacy frills
And mens silk ties
High heeled boots
And fantastic lies
A quenching thirst
A spicy fire
The epitome
Of mens desires
On they look
With their fantasies
While you bring them
To their knees
A fantastic feline
That makes men crawl
Luring them in
With your mating call
To devour
And use up
Then say “au revoir,
Goodbye, good luck”

‪Across the purple majesty‬
‪Landscape hazy and subdued ‬
‪Amidst the mist and murk‬
‪That hides a stunning view ‬
‪Above the slopes and plush terrain ‬
‪Under moons bright stare‬
‪Gazing off into the stars‬
‪Breathing mountain air‬
‪Together in the moonlight ‬
‪Standing hand in hand‬
Daring us to venture out
To discover newer lands

His gaunt frame was gangly
He wore jeans and a coat
He was nervous and sweaty
And strung out on dope
He’d stare at the ceiling
Whenever he spoke
I offered him help
But he said he could cope
Then I laughed in his face
At his poorly told joke
And casually implied
I’m at the end of my rope

Cold as ice
In arctic seas
Homeward bound
Before they freeze
Must maneuver
Through sleet and rain
Past big sharp icebergs
That slice and maim
The underbelly
Like a tin can
And sink their ship
Farewell, the end
