ocean of passion profound
between me and you
my heart drifts
and my words drown

...slowly

reality and imagination blur
deep down there
silence sounds like a prayer
and seconds seize to occur
I can't
I can't
I can't
I can't
I cant
I can't
I can't



(Try Again)


I can.
Never give up.

Love*
is it a noun or a verb?









*an understatement.
cushions make a queer backstop
after five long years of stone
friends and family fray the nerves
after five long years alone

a backyard barbecue a battle
when the fight is finally won
still he fights to find the joy
in the laughter of his son

a bonafide war hero
not as brave as he might seem
when he can’t escape the feeling
that coming home was just a dream

her eyes !

Fire of creation

///

One more dream

••

( just another )

///

Boy out walkin in the rain

Down the one way road

Comes upon the shadows

( The lost exotic street )

As in ancient times

                                                         When the heroes meet

/////

childhood

Fades away

////

And the seed is found

To be

Ready to be planted

As she appears

Again

///

One

Song





Ah sweet dreamers

It's time to sing
//

                                               ( death is done )

she walks the road

Midnight till dawn

••

She asks all questions honestly

/////

/////

( Love is gentle

Men are good )

••

beyond the fear

In the boldness of pure modesty

///

She lives again

///

///

The soft wind breathes

The holy song

She

Walks the road

Midnight till dawn

Lonely day without a friend

We know the love that heals

We know the way to hurt another

We know that we choose

The way we treat each other




yes we do

Know ourselves

All the time

As the wars come

And the fires

That never stop burnin
