Don’t bug me today;I am sick and insect-ious;Pest me tomorrow.

A Waterfall
There are those that rain like a gentle shower;Tickling the rocks that sleep below.And those that spew with force unbridled;Constructing chasms that cannot be crossed.But no matter what the size or strength,Each distinctive beauty is undeniable;Relished in awe by the passerby.
Day and Night
The morning dawns a bright new day;Full of energy, light and play;Optimistic points of view;A future well looked forward to.As the day winds to a close;The light begins to decompose;And darkness starts to settle in;Doubt and fear creep under the skin.A fretful night of doom and gloom;Until eyes open to a light filled room;And aContinue reading “Day and Night”
Under The Pier
I see you playing on the beach;Your beautiful wife and children in reach.Laughing and joking with passerbys;Who don’t dare look me in the eye;As I sit here under the pier.You leave the beach with sundrenched skin;Only to return again;Much later for a drink upstairs;A lady friend meets you there. All of this I see andContinue reading “Under The Pier”
Rubble
You call it rubble;A heap of rocks.I see a treasure trove.Pick up a rock.Can you feel the energy?Millions of years in the palm of your hand.Look at the colors, the patterns;There is a golden shimmer in this one;A crystal clarity in that one.Each calls to me;Wanting to tell its story.
That Face
That face!I know it so well.The smirk;Behind which there lies a punch line.The smile;That lights up the sky.The frown;So full of disappointment.The forehead;Wrinkled in concern.But this face I have not seen before.Talk to me.
Truth
Going through the motions;What is happening?It’s better not to think about it.Take action to avoid;Check this off, then that.What to do next?The thoughts are creeping in.Must do something, anything;Run! Run! Hide! Hide!But the truth is there;Look it in the eye.
The Stairs
The family that traverses these stairs;Is a joyful family indeed;They do not want for anything;As with love they each succeed.
Broken Dreams?
I’m tired of waiting for something to happen;Fed up with searching for that magical moment;Working tirelessly to achieve the unachievable.The reward must not exist.There is no light at the end of the tunnel;No golden trophy atop the pedestal.Only the searching and waiting.Yet… the quest continues.
Unspeakable
How dare you? Cause chaos and death; Harm the innocent; Murder the children. How dare you? Lie to the people; Spread hate and fear; All to satisfy your demented ego. You are on a one way path to self-destruction. A rogue monster; Destined to fail; Consigned to oblivion.
