Sun bruised, emaciated body, his stunning green eyes contrasted with a wizened face. Track marks lined pale flesh under his scrawny arms. Veins that had seen too many needles of pain filled ecstasy. . . .

Hazy winter sun throbs on his weather beaten face. Grime caked sweat rolls off bearded, wizened skin. Gashed brow, life in tow, he struggles up hill. Greeting the morning with warm, . . .

Coffee stained earmarked pages
Stuck with untapped potential
From a geyser of thought
Words gushed through open pores

Antiseptic whitewashed walls glared into her weary, wary eyes. Wary with dreaded anticipation, as the pain throbbed in her womb like the heartbeat of an earthquake's epicenter.

When angels take flight,
do their souls have a cost?
Can gravity become levity?
Does atlas shrug at the lightness of life?
Do angels sulk at . . .

Anything she wants to be
Those taunting, tempting words,

My back longs for your calloused hands
My heart beats in tempered spurts

From a lady in red
From a General in white
Born from sass and sage
Born from feisty wisdom
Sibling harmony
Sibling demise
Father’s nurture
Father’s fall
Engaged . . .

Of speeding towards your destination
Florescent lights emit a sickly glow
Skin sallow, faces ail in ambient envy
Sun drenched riverbeds; cloudless . . .

Tongue of sweet sage
Tastes the bitter truth
Teacher teach me

Rhythm murmurs whisper hope
Pounding truth of the drum that's beaten
Now I've tripped. The thin floor will cave in

Oh, illusive soul,
Meet me in the midst of madness
Mend my self inflicted scars
We'll tread a virgin path
Oh, illusive soul,
Arrive at my doorstep
Author a letter of love
We'll meet . . .
