Politics and war
twin pillars of conflict
“Charge into weakness
retreat if there’s strength”

High in the tower
dividing to conquer
Fate looking down
— as your destiny waits

(The New Room: February, 2024)

Bathed In The Light

Closing his eyes
one last time
a man can finally see

Opening his heart
time undone
feelings Joie de Vivre

Moving beyond
future and past
returning to the source

Hearing that voice
bathed in the Light
— love his Tour de Force

(The 1st Book Of Prayers: February, 2024)

Feeling The Heat

The quicksand of anticipation
— the fire below

(Dreamsleep: February, 2024)

Chameleosis

A changing experience
— is not an experience of change

(Dreamsleep: February, 2024)

Dark Feelings

Captive of emotion
— prisoner of deceit

(Dreamsleep: February, 2024)

Bearing The Curse

He died
the day before
his birth
the curse had worked again

Generations
in the womb
their feticide
a last amen

The garden path
a stepford trap
whose fruit trees
bear the scorn

Enoch built
to hide the curse
the Mark of Cain
— damnation born

(The New Room: February, 2024)

Abandonment

Running off with tomorrow
divorcing today
The moment left orphaned
— all time astray

(Dreamsleep: February, 2024)

Armee d'Afrique

Camels in the
brush
Memories in the
fire
Voices in the
wind
Panic in the
mire

Messages
conflict
Enemy
conspires
First shot
breaks the silence
Last shot
— lights the pyre

(The New Room: February, 2024)

Memories In The Smoke

Future horizons
tomorrow in embers

Sparks in the distance
— time set on fire

(The New Room: February, 2024)
