Slow down, hold onto me, Everything’s a downer, taking downers, Slipping down dreams, Like playing chutes and ladders, Climbing to high places, Sitting high watching the colors float, Boats drifting down, As we row, row, row, Row your boat, Down channels, Changing channels, hearing beat after beat, Attack the ear lobes, Ear drums making beats,…

Tears Inside
Tears fall inside, Silence surrounds screaming, Tearing apart the photo album, Inside, all inside, Alone, inside, screaming inside, No one knows, No one hears, No one see’s, The dreams, haunting dreams, Ghosts of memories, haunting me, Screaming in agony, inside, Silent all around, Inside pain erupts, Agony, constant agony, No one to hear, No one…
No Good Journey
Off to the track, dollar bill, highest sum in the pocket, Dog running, collar bare, illegally bought at local fare, Young man, running around, Tanned and built on the tred-mill, So ill, down with the local trend, driving that fast riding mare, Around and around, circle by circle, to the winners stand, First place medal…
Are You I?
When you can’t find meaning in life, Where do you land, Mind looking back, past hitting you fast, Faster than fast, Unbridled energy unleashed with each memory, Toxic regret ripping heart apart, Tearing lives, our life, your life apart, Memories, faster than fast, Ripping through life just like that, Where did you run too, Where…
Seconds
Sitting on the couch, Watching the scale slide high, Bigger than a pine cone, Taller than a pine tree, Heavier than pine cream tea, Mixed in heavy canned cream, Steamy, wafting high in empty air, Dreams, hitting in the solarplex, Indiscriminate, judging me till I blow up, Caught up in jail house thoughts, Tree’s falling…
Moments
Writing on the wall, Advanced notice given, Moving trucks rolling out, Life seems to be falling, Short a dozen or so items, Moving in, all disorientated, Lost my effects, 4 times no less, Always picking myself up by my jeans, The first time I found myself, A walking country song, 2 jeans, 2 shirts, a…
Looking Glass
Selfish image, looking in the mirror, Crack, boom, falling glass, Looking down, blood flowing from bruised knuckle, Anger embellished in flushed face, Soft wound, can’t see the floor, Blackness engulfs the soul, As the heartless sorrow sucks me through, Glass to glass, heart to heart, Chase begins through the Queen’s court, Caving in diseased hollow…
Alone
Wall of shame, alone, My soul in chains, alone, Locked in closet, alone, Trapped in chests, alone, Shame entrapped me, alone, Feeling hopeless, alone, Lost in darkness, alone, Forest encroaches on me, alone, Caves hold my heart, alone,
When Divorce Feels…. good?
Sitting here I’m reminded of you, I’m not fucked up without you, Dying and suicide feel like another life, Reminded of you, I live true because of you, Set me free, yes you did, Soul of a man because of you, You never needed me Boo, Now free of you, I live free and true,…
