Awake at 6:30am

Insurmountable light
Bursting forth to reveal the day, born anew
Bathed in the sincerity of a thought made real
With assured foot, and cautious eye
Onward to the golden path

Ship Without a Captain

Alone, the Pirate stands on the boardwalk
To him a plank
Congested, hustled, bustled
Heart heavy and brow beaten; he carries the weight of his heart on his shoulders
And with quite dismay
He asks for the strength to endure but instead is ushered to the Captains wheel
Waves crash at the back of his throat
Drowning the truth
For this is the price he must pay for reaching out to the hand of dust and smoke, expecting stone
The wind lifts his head in solemn ascension
Wasted time was never more well spent

Cineplex Odeon

Diving into the ocean of the sky
Armed by the twin blades of doubt and certitude
She glides to the dance of creation
Missing every step, but staying in time
Circling walls of stone draw ever near
Hundred weight and penny pound
She is her own shield
Unwavering, and forged of tempered serenity
Fighting until the day she wins, or is won

Bad Thai

Talking to a man of circuitous verisimilitude
The hands of the clock close tight around my neck
A twelve course meal without flavor or substance
The appetizers, lukewarm and late
And this is only the beginning…

The Ballad of Joseph

With a hand dipped in moonlight
He walks by the waters edge to catch a glimpse of himself
Of sound mind, and electric body
He steps into the shadows
The refection now more real than the man
Echoing footsteps recall sounds of the dance
Forever etched into the sand, of diamond grain
