Gleeful parasites intent on obliteration
feed on the stillness.
Starlight can't warm the damp grass.
If only he had cosied up once
for one last chance
to embrace.

Traveler
The story that you tell yourself,
is nothing more than a spell...
Spells can be broken.
The real you awaits,
the evolution of your soul.
Like a caterpillar the ego
must go.
Traveler
Flaunt your joy
Dig your sorrow
You have only today
Who knows 'bout morrow!
Candle by the sea
A sudden gust cuts us short
As Gloom turns to speak
This scar upon my hand
A, one time, hopeful plan

A promise left unkept
Now poisons my affect
