Sleep the day away
break your fast
at sun set
terribly inappropriate
your circadian rhythm
will be all messed up
but what's a nightshifter
to do?

who dies young

good folks
bad folks
neutral folks
all kinds
unless it's a joke
who dies young
the people we like.

Hope springs

An oasis
hopefully
maybe a mirage
that can be seen
should one wander
into hell
it is if nothing else
A direction.

direction
better than nothing

Bought dust

Invest in change
The only certainty
Aside from death.

Or so claims
My stockbroker

Tales

I remember
How things were
At the end
In the courtroom
A crowd arguing
So fiercely for custody
over remains
Why
for money
Or just old times sake.

Rather not

Is it better
to rule in hell
or serve in heaven
maybe rule in hell
but it already has a king
and a long line of successors
i'll just be a lazy servant.

we all fall down

Certainty broken
the old ways
just don't do it for you
anymore
find something new
or deny everything
find out how long
you can hold a crumbling idol together

Idol or load bearing column
