drinking at the lone shore a buck,
many leaves falling to the ground,
yet summer always could be found
like white light as ice skies...

Psychopathica

Subtle it's subversion it just catches the eye.
Can't tell which diversions really the greater lie.

The owl in the a tree.

The owl is in the tree. 

As I walk into the deep woods, I can feel the heap, rubble, and stubble of the leaves and branches crackling under my feet. I know I should retreat. But I will stay. I will never walk away. The owl, perched high in the...

Maybe I Am The Goat

Maybe I Am The Goat

I’m sorry my ladies
I have not been my self
I’ve been preoccupied
I thought COPD
Is what was ailing me
I know I’m no doctor
Maybe I’m wrong saying
I have asbestosis
Thanks to My Uncle Sam
When I was in boot camp

The walk in the woods.

The walk in the woods.

The first moon of mine

You are the moon
Who comes first in my mind,
I can't tell, how beautiful you
look with that light,
I can stare at you all the nights.
with that deep blue eyes of mine,
with music in my mind, My heart stops beating
when, I saw, you all that...

Endlessly they sought release,
Clock hands mark the final hour,
Evening comes, soul's cleansing...
