Fatigue

Fatigue Claws around the eyes Like smile induce wrinkles Cut by too many peals of laughter Now a chasm of long blinks and yawns The spring sunshine a lullaby Gently suggesting that dawn’s rise be compensated The dream/reality balance restored By drifting into the passing clouds of the mind And letting those heavy lids fall …

Blooms and Burns

It’s just a little too much When the chicken is burned And still undercooked The woman is beautiful And somehow pissed Maybe it’s the chicken Perhaps it’s the budding of the flowers Giving her visage a run for its money We’re all fucked in our own little ways Especially the new flowers Who like all …

Technicolor Deity

Empire’s Ancient Lands

In rolling steppe I found my feet Brittle grass crunching under my feel Summer sun low on the horizon Shadows long in the treeless expanse A sacred wind blew  Cold, dry, aimless on the plain I, alone, heard it’s song Its whispered melody Bearing down on my like a galloping horseman Bow drawn, aim steady …
