Four Eternal Brothers of our Youth

Take a knife to strife.
Let’s go deep down memory lane.
Our heavy metal shows on your moms porch was never in vain.
We understood the pain.
We drank the filthy rain.

Was it the pale yet powerful madness from The Smiths that made us...

Upon the door I knock

Dancing cliff with semi tears has no fears.
Emerald ocean tramples and devours but it will never concur the tiny shoreline.
The whiskey wind stumbles and falls.
Swinging sun fades and slowly crawls.
Ancient words annihilate and infiltrate like a...

Before the Fade

I am sliding like lava.
Violently drifting.
Chaotically shifting.

I am drowning like frozen words.
Cracking under the dark years.
Petrified under limestone tears.

My heart slowing resisting.
Under a glass moon, I find
myself...

Still I Glide

Softly out of time.
Still I rhyme.

Loudly dying.
Colorfully crying.

Magnificently frowning.
Upwardly drowning.

Quickly staying in place.

Blurry sun.

A Few Smiles More

You thought it was easy to breathe inside a self emitting star.
You did not realize, after so many self inflicted years, you would have drifted so far.

I can not feel the old notion of knowing how strong I once was.
For decades now, I've given...

Angel in the Distance

Erasure of the heart is a lost and archaic art.
Where would your wicked words even begin to start?
Loathsome levels of the skin permeate with dreadful inclination.
Fingers move but lose their way as they cascade away into the lava realm of acid...

Is this really happening?

Smell the closing of my heart.
Mold my burnt feelings like some kind of
oversimplified art.

Shelter the blind soul.
Speak hard core truth so that the little eyes will...

Close to Me

Sweet mind bending oh so kind leaving you soft caked with emerald divinity.
Closer to the cliff of my heart we happily find the diamond field of shear...

Love Overcomes All

My chances run bare.
Footprints disappear.

Shade away the rusted kiss.
Years worth of closed eyes forces me to dismiss.

I hear you call but my heart walks on a sleepy cloud.
My soul screams out...
