Life


A breathing ghost sent flashes of past judgments and old habits|

The view was witnessed with eyes closed|

In a distant memory that reappeared as the casket closed|

Rain swept across my face|

Down the land that saw me rest|

And met with a cold stare|

In a gloomy sky that reflected off the shining path|

A space to resurrect|

Manifested from a departing cloud|

Giving room for light to shine|

To breed with the wet dew|

In that land where my memories rest|

And a sudden adventure began|

The roots grew a single rose on top the concrete slab that gave the sky a new area to glow|

Inside Your Hands

Parables fumble in unprepared hands| Deprived of gifts bestowed to thee| As humans we seek shelter beneath a tree| When our feet become weak| And our needs extend beyond our means| As rain pours| It cleanses our soul| Dormant ideas start to grow| Yet we turn a blind eye| To what's before our sight| Taking the easy way| Shunning plights| Fighting is not a physical ordeal| It's more of a rejection to extol the almighty rule| Exploring alternatives to fables disguised as facts| Letters shredded in half| Eulogies embedded on a golden calf| The story was written for you to digest| The ending inside your hands| Inside your thoughts is the rest|

Spoken Word

A word once spoke is only heard through an opening in a cracked wall| Shrunk in the balance| Within strings moving from the wind's hold| Escaping push| Reinforced from strength of vibrations from a secluded silence|
