Stronger

I believe everyone must try once,

To work graveyard and feel rust,

Laugh as you may but it might pay,

To see the world from that dark night,

Imagine yourself isolated no one in sight,

Everyone you know is sound asleep,

Venture outside the shadows that creep,

To wake for shift you truly feel wretched,

As if your body woke yet mind wreckage,

The cars you see a thought drifts free,

Did they just wake or is it just me,

I envy those retreating back to home,

When I journey forth this black I roam,

The cool air is perpetually invigorating,

Wheels keep turning this sorrow is deafening,

Arrive destination the tasks before me,

Done it before but I still plan differently,

A change of motion to relieve the stale commotion,

A potion is drank to liven this will sank,

The brief boost followed by droop roost,

Energy quickly drain mind rapidly insane,

And then you may ask what is the benefit,

All you describe seems to be deprecate,

The best part comes after the deficit,

For living in the dark those hours mark,

Yet once the sun rise the loom instantly dies,

Light pours in and body haste refreshen,

Grey mood turns to white exist free from plight,

The day bringers begin to deliver again,

A relief from duty to go rest unruly,

And to suffer that pain is not in vain,

For everyday after each task is tame

Homicide

Does it ever take you back,

Far away to that place of attack,

Assault on morality state of duality,

One side ventures to overcome,

The second creates tension from,

A tear at what once was,

Still continued simply because,

Paralysis from greed does lead,

One down the path of need,

All that exists is that distress,

We set the bar to never stoop that far,

Funny how the bar vanished sub par,

That line got bent labeled vagrant,

Nomadic it travel not set in stone,

What once was hone now raw to the bone,

Gambled with our righteousness so careless,

Those good of heart could never play the part,

Easily manipulated fed to wolves then vacated,

They carried off our flesh for future success,

Attempted to mend wounds but found too soon,

A hint of evil snuck in come forth beckon,

Reply to the call allow disaster to fall,

Chaos consume seems right high noon,

Rampage this phage dwells within my cage,

Please quench this rage needs to be vented,

Expel out the fire fermented seething went it,

Some say let it go but inside more show,

Grow stronger although the lesson learned,

Trust less quick else felt burned

Occasions

When you haven't seen them for a while,

To spend some time and make a real smile,

Argue with those you see everyday,

Most of the time silly always that way,

Catch yourself fighting for right,

When you know it doesn't matter see the light,

For these moments are frozen in turn,

Dwell on them future ever so yearn,

Understand these cups will dry,

Our plates not filled so high,

Some may say eye for an eye,

But what does that help when you end up blind,

Invisible solution burnt wisdom dilution,

Intrusive elusive yet far more uses,

Not useless to form preemptive truces,

Take heed from darkness it thrives doubtless,

Remark this starkness spoken truly no falseness,

And always remember when leave must take,

Make sure it's on good terms not fake

Arthur

Knights of the round tales so profound,

The winning of a sword to become adored,

Unleash the hounds he is no king of mine,

He barely has a beard it's an obvious sign,

Rally under our righteous banner,

Defeat our enemies in the same manner,

The wizard Merlin lights a candle,

Forever it burn till he gives up the mantle,

Woe to be a king with no lovely queen,

By chance is seen the fairest in the land,

Send Launcelot forth offer wedding band,

Joyous occasions we feast congregation,

A mighty tournament pit swords for enjoyment,

Foreseen ancient the king will be vanquished,

Unholy foe incest born of seed sow,

On day of birth send all children back to earth,

Set sail doomed vessel no survivors save one,

The bastard Mordred lives a rotten son,

The fair Morgause seduced the king once,

Now she lay with Lamerok her love fronts,

Shame to be had for his dad killed our dad,

Pellinore did indeed slay King Lot ill fated deed,

The mighty Lamerok caught by Gaheris,

The son beheaded his own mother for shameful lustiness,

Lamerok was spared yet his fate drew near,

Arthur offered a truce but Lamerok did refuse,

The brothers ambushed after he was battle weary,

Gawain, Gaheris, and Aggravayne fought barely,

Lamerok stayed them all at the tip of his sword,

For hours they fought none could defeat this lord,

The coward Mordred crept from behind,

And stabbed dear Lamerok in the spine,

Tristan loved Iseult yet jealousy King Mark felt,

A lover's serenade ended with bloody spear Mark made,

Revenge for Lamerok felt by his cousin,

The poisoning of an apple for Gawain's consumption,

Yet another ate first and fell dead cursed,

It was the queen's feast and she was blamed not the least,

Put her to the stake we forsake her life must take,

Lancelot charged to rescue and slew his beloved Gareth,

For they refused to bare arms and fell swiftly to harm,

The kin of Lancelot rallied quickly to his castle,

Blood lust and rage filled Gawain's cage,

His brothers were dead felled by Lancelot's dread,

Sorrowful Arthur no choice but to avenge honor,

March against his own men the bloodbath begin,

The queen was returned yet disaster they learned,

Flee to Lancelot's lands the Siege of Benwick turned,

Arthur laid the lands to terror and Lancelot allowed tremor,

A challenge by Gawain resulted in mortal wound,

News from Camelot Mordred usurped the throne,

Sail to Dover yet Gawain's wound not recover,

On his deathbed he lay with blood letter pray,

Beseech Lancelot come to your liege's aid,

For if you don't he will surely be slayed,

On eve of battle Gawain's ghost came to Arthur,

Hold my lord sue for peace no matter what afford,

Arthur agreed and next day peace could succeed,

On the fields of Camlann the armies of men,

Unknown soldier unsheathe weapon the doom reckon,

Bedivere and Lucas the only ones left,

Arthur saw Mordred alone his support bereft,

No my lord stay your sword wait for Lancelot accord,

A chance not to miss Arthur rushed Mordred high risk,

Impaled violent spear Mordred felt death drawing near,

Bloody hand gripped lance drew closer advance,

Mordred's dying act held sword both hands to attack,

A grievous cleave through Arthur's helmet reave,

Lucas and Bedivere struggled to carry him,

Yet Lucas fell dead his wounds had maimed limb,

Take my sword trusted Bedivere cast it into lake,

The jewels so precious the blade could not forsake,

Tell me what you saw as you threw Excalibur,

Nothing but the ripples of water after,

You must do as I say cast the sword away,

This time did as wished and a silken hand grasped,

It swung the sword to and fro complete task,

It is said that Arthur was taken to Avalon,

To return one day our time of need we rely upon

Fork

Whenever it's not enough a fork you reach,

This road divided ignore lessons that teach,

One side is content truly indifferent,

The other insatiable logic is malleable,

Twisted direction misleads bad section,

Course correction by some and others by force,

For when you finally decide it's often from pride,

Blinded choice for will's deafening voice,

Take heed once opened this box will succeed,

Unravel the mystery it yearns to be freed,

And even if the truth is hard to swallow,

It can't be closed no mercy to borrow,

Are you prepared for what lies ahead,

A path of broken glass or glistening tread,

Choose wisely see the big picture,

Adding too much will spoil the mixture,

Blended well the flavor excel,

If soured the taste truly repel,

Long after the vote has been cast,

A stray thought exists from the past,

When I first saw this road did I do right,

Answered simply of course if I used insight

Give Thanks

Gather family for joyous feast,

Indulge in thanks and not the least,

Spare no expense and let's commence,

First the turkey we cook with pride,

Oven baked but have you tried deep fried,

Don't forget potatoes take care to make those,

Mash them right add bacon to delight,

Let's add some stuffing to gather steam,

Keep this train going of gravy I mean,

Sweet potatoes or yams taste delicious,

Add some marshmallows bland you won't miss,

Baking bread or store bought,

Whatever the case essential we got,

The sauce of cranberry so tart must slice,

You forgot the pie no no that won't suffice,

Oh a joke how funny dutch apple with crumby,

Or pumpkin later on but I prefer pecan,

Topped with ice cream truly a dream,

Next day left-overs are a treat,

Because we didn't have to cook strenuous feat,

And for lunch let's make a sandwich,

That turkey tastes so good flavor so rich,

Oh it's finished is that what you say,

I guess I'll have to wait for next Thanksgiving Day

Green

Perfect pieces fill the creases,

Fold the puzzle never ceases,

Machine made efficient gas pumping,

Toxic waste pollute by dumping,

Harness the fire what a start,

Murder nature not so smart,

Empty mission to survive ambition,

Strive for glory build hundredth story,

Feel the earth tremble and tremor,

Think its better yet torn by letter,

Siphon our food from the mother of good,

Drain her life to sustain our strife,

Then we question why skin burns oceans rise,

What did we do to deserve fated demise,

The plants they laugh and the trees stare,

We were first and we gave mother care,

She gave us life and we cherished it dear,

Took what we needed to exist no excess here,

No material possession only food nutrition,

Our brothers the wild they kill as their style,

To feed their young the circle live among,

They own no jewels they would think for fools,

Digging out her flesh to garnish our necks respect,

And now the sky falls you have surely doomed us all,

The peaceful trees now burn to ashes,

All wild life dies to famine shelter crashes,

Our soil is dry no water to drink we must die,

Wither and fade like your revolution industrial,

Climax of technology only led more catastrophe,

And still you wonder why your home is destroyed,

Because you forgot her home which is now a void

Tether

I laugh to myself writing words,

Feel an impression yet know its absurd,

As if a phrase will unlock my steely gaze,

I drift for miles staring at trials,

Bad or worse it's all relative,

Journey dim yet all I seem to give,

Mediocre effort honestly none at all,

Adequate at best now I'm beginning to stall,

A memoir to share futile to care,

Why bother rhyming these thoughts,

Idle hands my words laconic rots,

Listen to a favored melody revelry,

A sonata of moonlight where I dwell to be,

Solemn in demeanor senses not keener,

Close this door so I can sit evermore,

Drift through blue a time to rue,

Lethargic actions lacking traction,

Friction to others so coarse pale horse,

Riding to claim stand on brink nigh again,

Stare over this edge all I see nothingness,

Abyss of silent no more music refinement,

If I fall through this crack no way to find back,

So I continue to stare and ponder longer,

For if it happens that I forget where it is,

Imagined myself on brink yet facade wreckage,

Illusions to feed delusions to retain sane,

Hang on to the thread of life that binds me,

Searching this abyss so blinding,

Let go of safety for closer view,

Swallowed entirely nothing more to do,

Engulfed in black so silent feels violent,

Looking up for remnants not here not since,

I broke the tether the light couldn't weather,

And amidst this endless black I grew to find,

I never stepped off it's all in my mind

Shadow

Where do the shadows go,

Slink away as night turns to day,

Once lit by moon now hidden room,

Watch as they follow close,

Turn around vanish like ghost,

Dark nature the shadow lives,

Soul drain all shadow gives,

Alien at first strike,

Struck down wear as crown,

One among the glass lung,

Song sung of spirit wrung,

Through day it lies recess,

Sun sets spring and digress,

The shadow seen less and less,

Felt behind yet nowhere mind,

Eyes closed the shadow knows,

Where to find and where it goes,

Drifts in silence seeking timeless,

Shadow retreat wait for fresh meat,

Descend the spiral contagious and viral,

Follow the lines curve wicked spines,

Chasing no end it seems to beckon,

All that is left no time to reckon,

Turn to see shadow yet missed shallow,

Corner of eye dismiss as it passes by,

Insidious grin the shadow has no skin,

No source to feel it only has sin,

Spreads thick like locust sick,

Poison death cloud embodies shadow shroud,

Infects the innocent no difference,

Makes little sense actually none at all,

Wait look there's the shadow on the wall,

Step closer and get a better look,

You are the shadow and your soul it took

Why do we

A word said wicked for deceit,

Truth no chance just defeat,

Futile rebel trouble rumble,

Tied tongue silent undone,

Only one may set the sun,

Make it rise day is won,

The webbed spider climbed higher,

Spun his story leapt in fire,

Eclipse lunacy instead new to me,

Rock reality fear atrocity,

Misstep once trap sprung stunts,

Cage descend locked white now black,

Started small before relentless attack,

Try to retract but fail miserable,

Pitiful attempt went hope now bent,

Dragon sent unleash fury rent,

No survivor chasm gape phantasm,

Surpassing logic refer to nostalgic,

Tame the insane with gentle rain,

Sprinkled soft take pain just refrain,

Careful spoke possible revert awoke,

If slip ship sinks before it could sail,

Anchor drag ocean floor depart fail,

Success plane takes off from mess,

Leaves burnt land behind scorched no rewind,

Soar long for more forget anything before,

Create new joy to deploy peace envoy,

No decoy we exist pure lacking ploy,

Smooth over wounds soft words to swoon,

Avoid injury reopen vivid imagery catastrophe,

Days pass no relapse just free from crass,

High class attention don't mention insurrection,

Eventual tide slows our minds forget throws,

Seemingly easily the white lie rose,

Snowballs this plane stalls crash walls,

So we repair the despair and prepare for next tear

Don't

How long will my journey last,

Early grave hope not too fast,

Even though I wanted it sometimes,

Determined with knife ready to slit lines,

But then it occurs all who I'd leave behind,

The days after would hold remorse,

Never letting go and feeling worse,

And even if words were left,

Who knows the truth hidden kept,

Then it seems selfish black dreams,

Don't hold me down I want to be free,

Why for your sake and not for me,

Pity it is to ponder evil this,

Voices creep in and settle can't miss,

Berating with inquiry over lost yearly,

They snap and grind the past deep in my mind,

Drift for hours or so it seems,

Blessed of course every time it gleams,

Why you are here is explained in turn,

Every road has a split or a hole that burn,

Savor the hills on grassy knoll,

Ignore water under bridges leave the troll,

Always seek for more strengthen the core,

This soul is on fire with lion's roar,

And as you age that fire may dim,

But not for some fight tooth and limb,

Because they are the ones that already knew,

This is our life and there is more we must do

Never change

Tell me what happens when it's wrong,

Are you like me convinced all along,

Thought I could but not for long,

Take refuge in your favorite song,

Congratulate how far I made,

Then I turn around and begin to fade,

Who you saw was a facade so raw,

Someone I created to confuse,

Worked so well I thought so too,

I promised I would never say that,

Fall back in and first thing I made at,

They told me it was good but for wrong reason,

I actually thought I was right change of season,

Till it hit and I truly understood,

Carve me open same layers in wood

Shell

Why does the darkness come,

Thoughts often but not for some,

Brandish daggers violent one,

Dripping poison silence stun,

Looming over dank enclosure,

Gaping wide infest exposure,

Wounds salted evil called it,

Transform detest the norm,

Lake submerge ridden dirge,

Locked away hidden dismay,

Resurface for air to compare,

Current swift yet life bare,

Swept under fear encumber,

Lucid dream reveal in slumber,

Awaken epiphany cast so skillfully,

Anvil struck metal found corrupt,

Porous and brittle unholy riddle,

Defer to other relieve uncover,

Blanket is torn far too worn,

Somehow damp left warmth bereft,

Open this door to learn more,

Keep it closed to ignore,

For if it's shut you'll fail to grow,

Shackled potential to never know,

Idle and lost with nothing to show,

Huddle in shell a tale of woe

Symphony

Music has to be a beloved symphony,

A treasure to behold truthfully,

Without it I would simply cease to be,

Cursed with silence dwelling in apathy,

A familiar tune I listen so many times,

Instruments combine and the singer rhymes,

Crescendo magnificent approach the peak,

Climax of sound my knees turn weak,

Buckle as it softens melodic markings,

Engraved in my mind takes me back to find,

Nostalgia for old moments of gold,

Nothing triggers my memory greater,

Than a song I loved and heard later

Wednesday, November 18, 2009

Together

Coping with loss is a strange thing,

But only if they are still on your wing,

As if our mind prepares for the worst,

That one day they will leave back to earth,

Terrible nightmares plagued with tragedy,

Try to protect but it simply has to be,

Of course I know nothing lasts forever,

That is fallacy for love endures mortal sever,

Hard to imagine but not for some,

Transcend galaxies light years become,

The distance we travel to and from,

Unite once again after all is said and done,

Infinite energies complex pair are we,

Planets stepping stones rings setting tones,

Stars brilliantly shone we are not alone,

For even if my heartbeat stops,

Our hearts beat together like morning rain drops

Crash

All in all every plane begins to stall,

Soar quick up high plummet faster goodbye,

Give birth to engines fueled by passion and tensions,

Not to mention the passenger kidnapped messenger,

Mail won't be delivered cold air all shivered,

Turbine explode overload capacity see through opacity,

Free fall don't panic just stay manic,

More fun that way don't succumb death pay,

Infinite reward move toward all aboard,

Flashes of light actually explosions in the night,

Inferno of white engulf mortal coil might,

Black clouds billow accept fate mellow,

Aren't we all creeps reckon shallow peaks,

View out the window so calm crashing below,

Swift kick to spine seat behind ripped from bind,

Turn to look but fail to realize,

Everyone with sheer terror in their eyes,

Why is it I feel no fear it approaches so near,

White knuckles on most jaw dropped pale ghost,

Tempted to unbuckle the safety hasten tragedy,

Refrain from insane possibly survive hell dive,

Screams drowned by horrible sound all around,

The gates of darkness beckon we are bound,

I sense impending doom our destination reached soon,

Suddenly I visualize my past all the days I was alive,

Good and bad but I relished it all I was glad,

My last act on earth was to give death a smile,

Reaper scythe eclipsed now I walk shadow mile

Black Heart Friends

How do you define insanity,

Ramblings of chaos or illusions calamity,

Mine lurks deep in my mind all the time,

Awakened by horror no escape just more,

Visual decay imagine flesh melt disarray,

Pictures during the day only add to the fray,

Unstoppable demons clench my mind no reason,

I try to halt the slaughter but they laugh harder,

Pushing their death before my eyes black heart demise,

It became black from how often they occur and attack,

Can't deter insidious fever polluted delusion demeanor,

My black heart friends take a piece of me easily,

I have no control they simply drill their hole,

So during the day people laugh when I say,

No horror movies I can't feed them they don't go away,

Don't be ridiculous it's just fake cinema,

The black heart friends deal blood no replica,

A vast ocean so dark like a million horror novels,

Seas of corpses tramp and tear gore ridden brothels,

I used to think video games were safer,

You see movies portrayed reality more easy to occur,

Fine for a while until I mocked and they opened the file,

The cheesy graphics became so real out of this world surreal,

I challenged and the black heart friends made me their meal,

It only happens late at night about to sleep,

Close my eyes and black heart friends creep,

Leap before my eyes I turn away but no reprise,

Change of thought but still they fought,

Like a slideshow with your eyes taped open,

Replaying over and over horrific violent woven,

Because you see that did happen to me,

My step-brother's family unrelated no sympathy,

I was so young and dreaded anything remotely terrible,

An innocent inquiry turned into haunted memorable,

Come watch you will enjoy,

No please don't tie me I'm just little boy,

I close my eyes but eyelids taped to forehead,

Repressed the whole thing but black heart friends never did

Them

Thoughts seem to spin a situation I can't win,

Fooled myself into hate when really I was just late,

The hate turns to pity for others but mostly me,

I always come back to this place of disgrace,

Reflecting on the past waiting for the last,

Final cut of the zero hour climb that tower,

Rewind that song I need more time among,

Try to grasp that fleeting moment keeps retreating,

I catch a glimpse in the corner but never since,

Darkness descends pools of black heart friends

Burning

Falling down makes it hard to get up,

Sometimes life is a half-filled cup,

Staying up till six waiting for answers,

Eating poorly body weak feeling worse,

No exercise we chastise these days of our lives,

Mind goes to waste unread books fill my case,

Moved away from friends and family just lonely,

Then we wake up and realize it's time to get up,

Let's go to sleep early and strengthen our spirit,

Stop repeating these lists and just do it,

We can eat better and strengthen our will,

Breakfast don't skip its most important still,

A little walk here and there strengthen the body,

It raises morale and only has to be done moderately,

Pick up that book to strengthen the mind,

Education in wordplay find time to unwind,

And never forget friends and family strengthen the soul,

Someone to rely on to speak to and keep control,

For without these things life certainly takes it's toll,

Burning our candles at both ends descends down the hole

Saturday, November 14, 2009

Beginnings

Vicious wishes serve no purpose,

As if granted makes truth surface,

Retreat to hollow cheat usual beat,

Drained of reason now empty seat,

If it fails plans derail off scale,

Collapse lie cold in storms of hail,

Leery brain is weary thoughts so dreary,

Analyze the problem hypothesize theory,

New course develop fresh source of remorse,

Rekindle prior passion which is now a corpse,

Once alive it can thrive down deep and dive,

Resurface for air and further it strive,

For once it began dormant again master plan,

We started as monkeys and evolved into man

Thursday, November 12, 2009

Civil

A time of turmoil live and die by the gun,

Head for the west house of the rising sun,

President assassinated freed the lost one,

Hang a man for treason only for good reason,

Blues and greys collide before my very eyes,

Rifles fire cannons blow good man dies,

Sons and fathers bleeding on their own land,

Fight for bridges and rivers what they demand,

Unite under a banner die in the same manner,

Slaughter your neighbor buried next to them later,

Widows carry on so much work no one to rely upon,

Their sons are dead and husbands won't ever return,

It happened once that we let this fine nation burn

Wednesday, November 11, 2009

Deeds

Something out of hand not what we planned,

When did things turn wrong find answers in a song,

Interpret messages melodic reflective bandages,

Tell me where the planet is left so long disparages,

Frantic on the fringe of foreseeable famine,

Give me mental dilemmas I can examine,

Analyze spectacular visuals so criminal,

The usual suspects perplex what comes next,

Illusions of shadow filled to fuel the cattle,

Garner desperate power weaken tomorrow,

Nihilistic nature frayed brutal savior,

Turn to forsake another perhaps evil brother,

Or at least that's what they told us to believe,

Poisoned our minds with lies meant to deceive,

A stab in the back but we welcomed the knives,

Took them to heart white smiles glistening eyes,

Stamped blood in pavement oil drenched hands lament,

A nervous greed to proceed agenda polluted seed,

Raised and bred betrayed then left for dead,

How can we live with what's been done,

Abandon reason pursue truth don't run

Friday, November 6, 2009

Numbers

Familiar number clock strikes even,

Seen it before and many times given,

Why is it I always look up right then,

As if I was meant to fate beckon,

An odd chill thrills through spine,

Random noise bump in the night time,

Paranoia from all directions,

Phantoms stalking in reflections,

Lurking behind hidden dagger looming,

Or maybe attack from below dooming,

Then finally the times passes,

A new number enters and calms synapses,

Placid of thought tranquil demeanor,

Until I see it again so soon redeemer,

Takes me back to that moment of caution,

Wrought with panic and stale air hoping,

That the ghouls won't surface,

Haunted apparition ruthless,

Finally taking my mind as their prize,

Approaching with fangs clenching my demise

Thursday, November 5, 2009

Dreams

When I look up at the sky,

It's like drifting on clouds so very high,

During the day I'm filled with sun ray,

Upon night the stars twinkle so bright,

With the moon I gaze trapped in a daze,

Amidst the cold dark night it hangs like a kite,

I reach for it but I'm always too far,

When I get close it's like sinking in tar,

Then it's gone and my grasp slipped on,

One day I'll claim that moon,

Raise my flag but not too soon,

I'll take my time and relish the moment,

Gloat to all who doubted I'd own it,

But even then I would know it's brief,

I can't hold on forever fallen leaf,

The branch would weaken and I'd collapse,

Twisting in the wind and crashing fast,

On the ground I would settle with a smile,

Because I had enjoyed it even for a little while

Wednesday, November 4, 2009

Another

Fire comes in many forms,

Lightning crash thunder storms,

Breathe the inferno in deep,

Hold it in don't creep,

Exhale ignition spontaneous collision,

Position the target for the mission,

Lure it with lies terminate despise,

Gaping flesh torn from hollow mesh,

Gravedigger here's your corpse,

No angels here no heavenly chorus,

All you get is cold dirt nap,

Rest there bloody trench gap,

No remorse all is forgotten,

Drink some more this liver is rotten

Tuesday, November 3, 2009

Charlie

Close your eyes to make living easy,

Break the spell that makes you weezy,

This cocoon can't hold you,

Tear a hole and burst through,

Hard to be the hero so quick to be zero,

But not for us we go against the grain,

Trying to help but some call us insane,

Running from fate useless just late,

The time comes and we know its done,

A sacrifice so hard but we're the only one,

Even though we are drowned in deep,

Died knowing a redeemed soul did reap,

Because life was always a struggle,

They didn't believe us only trouble,

Our greatest hits we truly will miss,

Memories of the best times will always shine,

We will live forever and age like fine wine

Monday, November 2, 2009

Day

As time goes on we learn more to draw upon,

Lessons of life a grain of salt becomes a mound,

The ears are honed and get acquainted with sound,

Our eyes are keen and see through the unseen,

Develop a taste unique for your place,

Detect a hint to smell even a trace,

We know what will burn and how to discern,

The pain is real a synapse sparks to feel,

And after a bad day the mind simply drifts away,

Retreats to it's home like a tree for a gnome,

A peaceful slumber to release an encumber,

The sun will fly as morning comes,

Moist drops from grass and becomes,

Food for our land to thrive as demand,

Nourish our senses to continue existence

Mistaken Identity

A light stroll to grassy knoll,

Feel the warmth of the lovely sun,

One, two, and three planes fly and run,

I try to relax but restless I become,

Must find peace I leave alone,

Oh wait I forgot my love,

I sprint back its empty above,

I look I seek I search in vain,

A park so filled all I feel is pain,

No not you and not you either,

Ah yes I've found oh wait just another,

They start to leave I grow desperate and weave,

Till at last they are all gone and I've lost my only one,

A tumbling inside I let out a pitiful roar,

Oh why oh why did I leave you before

Hallowe'en

A full moon on all hallows' eve,

A holy night meant to deceive,

Slip into disguise we gently surmise,

A view from another to truly uncover,

What it must be to hide in plain sight,

The shadow of the moonlit October night,

Or are we the phantoms that lurk in the dark,

Taking tonight to bury our mark,

The end of light we salute the darkness,

Orange and black wont be missed,

We parade in fire the jack's desire,

Burn the evil we only soar higher,

A time of friendship we show no fear,

Enjoy the treat only comes once a year
