LP No. 05_2021_One

without pause or
doubt,
or fear of what may,
i pull
inexorably
to you.

the threads
of my life,
between nimble fingers,
tangled and knotted-
but we,
so far from besotted.

no way but up,
to fall into open arms.

no way but down,
to where we belong.

no way,
but the way
we forgot.

one path
to
a Love
destined.

one fall
to an
Oblivion
guaranteed.

one soul,
afire with hope &
purpose &
love.

enslaved to an empire built:

on the dreams of the deceased
and
the blood of their betters
and
on the backs of ghosts, scarred by wicked greed.

we march forward,
at war with everything
but the devils inside.

we march forward
down the same path,
dreaming and,
warring, and
enslaving,
for saving.

blind
to our consent,

we lie
and sink
into a wealth
of pain,
fighting,
with advesary in tow.

LP No. 03_2021_trust

this moment
slips ever so gently into
the next…..
as a single breath escapes
those soft round lips:
vulnerable and fleeting.




and,
between the longing,
and gasping, and
roiling anticipation,
behind the need
and want,
beyond all
hope,




I tumble back
into infinity,



trusting
in me.

LP No. 02_2021_Sincere

walk
with me.
till the end. there are
so many
miracles there.

for here,
where we are
alone,
the magic is

lost,
the moment-
forgotten.

this fire,
but an errant spark
of your fading desire.

night falls
as we seek another day.

till then,
on these words
i pray.

LP No. 01_2021_ Hidden

Shrouded


in the brilliant
preponderance
of the coming storm,



and
ensconced
in swirling mists
of ether,
magics,
and assorted devilry,

Destiny calls out,
desperately


yearning for your touch.





Do you
hear her?





Do you want to?




or would you rather slip
back
into sweet angelic
dreams of beauty
and love?






hidden away in vaults of eternal treasure,
She waits for your embrace.





Will you answer?
or simply wither away?

reconnect

life slips
through
loosened fingers,
like diamonds:

precious, and
fleeting.

joys
and
sorrows
balance roughly
on tired brows.

the sun rises,
and we move on.

and hope springs,
renewed,
with
every breath
of every new day.

life’s preciousness
carved
from a soul’s hope.


beauty realized
in you.

awaiting this moment

wave breaks against this dawn:
more
of the same pain
washes in, anew.

the Flot
and
Jet of flooded
emotions and memories
stifle…..

painlessly.

sweet surrender..

into the anonymity
of what almost
could be.

Dawn breaks
and this wisdom,

ebbs…..

away.
