CRISIS UNCERTAIN

A father's future fear
For a son held so dear
Who will live in a land with hate so near.

Learning to live with a hell unleashed
Victims of the mark of the beast.
All the while anger feasts.

Deaf to the pain of the other
While ignoring the cries of the  mother..

WORDS

We're not really going to make America Great Again
Cause at best we're just trading sin.

Redifing hate in order to win
Back to the hell where we've already been.

LIFE AND LITERATURE

The heart of a poet
Beats a song in the soul.

Moving along
Life takes its toll.

Hearing with the eyes
Putting sight to sound.

Looking for love
But truth to be found.

LIFE'S REVITALIZATION PROJECT

When seeking happiness is a common goal
Mates to be found of the soul.

Living life may take its toll
Once together parts make whole.

Distance between may be far apart
No challenge for the strong of heart.

Memories of the past may provide the perfect start
To rekindle feelings requires a little art.

CONSEQUENCES UNINTENDED

When emotions are released
The chains that hold personal demons in bondage

Fall away as well.
A small price to pay

For feeling again
But a price nonetheless.

LATE FOR FESTIVITIES

An albatross makes a most delicous Thanksgiving treat,
With its removal goes defeat.

Its only purpose to bring you down,
Turning a smile into a frown.

Through the taking of the beast,
Surpressed emotions become your feast.

When it's happiness that you seek,
Make sure your soul does not leak.

EXTREME RESURRECTION

Living while dead can lead
To painful attempts at arousal.

Self inflicted injuries just to feel
A measure of unyielding self control.

Shielding the present from reality
Can result in perpetual bondage.

Sometimes the afterlife can come
After life itself through memories of a happier time.

WELCOME ADDICTION

Feelings both evoked and expressed
Have left a state of the joyful chaos of confusion.

The return to neverland
Promises to be a wonderland

Of new experiances and old memories.
Now only to submit to the escape.

LOST FOUND

Sometimes on your journey through life's deserts
The name of your horse was always known but

You were blinded by the light of an unseen tomorrows
whose dawns were nothing more than residuals of yesterday's dusk.

In letting memories speak to the heart,
History can be your compass for the long journey home.

CIRCULAR REFLECTIONS

Back to where I used to be
From the past you're never free.

The strongest shape in life's geometry,
Visions once did not clearly see.

Memories now serve to strengthen me.

A POET'S HEART

Truth is what love yearns to be
Lies only make it hard to see

The worst always come from me
Staying down on bended knee

Always wanting less to believe
Giving more to receive

True happiness to achieve
Makes me easy to deceive.

GREAT EXPECTATIONS

Life is lived on a continum
Beware the absolute.

The minimum is the maximum
Tolerance is practice by the very astute.

POLITICS OF THE USUAL

I don't want to think because of what I might learn
Rather stay in ignorance than find cause for concern.

Playing the fiddle while watching Rome burn
My party can do the same just give us our turn.

EMOTIONAL VACCINE

Potions of dog's hair
For recoveries rare

Of injuries there
To a heart that was bare.

Caught up in a snare
From know not where

No need to play fair
To fight the illusion of care.

A MATTER OF LIVES

Laughter slowly seeps from my soul
As tradgedy seems to be in a spiral

Happiness no longer seems a goal
While messages of violence go viral.

Our society sadly feels the toll
When civilization goes suicidal.

IT DOESN'T ALWAYS

Numb from emptiness,
How the heart can ache
From lack of feeling
Absent emotions don't

Translate into an absence
Of emotions. There needn't be
blood for bleeding from
The heart.

Loneliness doesn't require
One to be alone.

REFLECTIONS OF FUTURE'S PAST

Memories of an unfinished kiss
Questions of the future
history did miss.

Interrupted by fate
With hopes to be resumed
At a much later date.

Moving forward by going back
Hoping to find
What the present did lack,

WHEN MEMORIES MATTER

Bringing back visions of
Who I was through
The eyes of
Who I am.

Reconciling reason
Remains a Herculean task
Especially for one who
Has lived life behind a mask.

Romance becomes the illusion
Enabling the solution
Happiness to be achieved
When logic is deceived.
