  • Shadowy Creatures

    August 14, 2015

    Shadowy creatures

    Thrive in absolute darkness,

    What is it they seek?

    Are they feasting on my fears

    Or do they desire blood?

     

    Real or imagined

    They torture me just the same.

    This…my illusion

    Has become reality,

    Whether I like it or not.

     

    The mind truly can

    Be such a terrible thing…

  • Our Stars and Stripes Raised

    August 14, 2015

    Our Stars and Stripes raised

    After being exiled

    For fifty four years.

    Ineffective policy

    Has finally been ended.

     

    Dissidents upset

    Obama is selling out,

    They’re completely wrong.

    We have embraced the Chinese

    Condoning communism.

     

    Where is their outrage,

    Aren’t they just as oppressive…

    Maybe even more?

    Where money and profits live

    We’ll always turn a blind eye.

  • Best of Intentions

    August 11, 2015

    Best of intentions

    Resulting in destruction

    Water pollution

    Liquid more precious than gold

    Spoiled for generations

    .

  • Sleep Amongst the Stars

    August 11, 2015

    Sleep amongst the stars

    Lover’s eyes gaze upon you

    What awaits beyond

  • Air Full of Moisture

    August 9, 2015

    Air full of moisture

    But nary a drop hits earth

    Arid desert weeps

  • To Be All Knowing

    August 7, 2015

    To be all knowing;

    Would I become horrified…

    Sickened by the thoughts?

    Would I share in suffering

    Or in humanities pain?

     

    I really don’t know,

    Maybe I would offer love

    Or a helping hand.

    I’d like to think myself brave,

    But then again…I’m not God.

  • Loftiest of Goals

    August 7, 2015

    Loftiest of goals

    Are nothing without action

    Procrastination

  • 50 Word Story: The Vagrant

    August 7, 2015

    Dressed in their finest, the mogul and his mistress approached the steps of the marble behemoth.  They were running late for the gubernatorial ball and the inconvenience of the vagrant lying before them just served to infuriate.

    Yelling obscenities at his still body…they did not realize he was dead.

  • The Stage Has Been Set

    August 6, 2015

    The stage has been set

    Clown car gassed up and ready

    Right-wing rant begins

    Offering few solutions

    To the mess that they started

  • Frustration Mounting

    August 5, 2015

    Frustration mounting

    As oligarchs come boldly

    Their riches in hand.

    Elections bought and paid for…

    Secret meetings seal the deal.

     

    Buying candidates,

    How much money must they have,

    How can we compete?

    Sitting idly by we watch

    As the slaughter commences.

     

    In revolution

    This once great nation was born.

    Perhaps it is time

    The monarchs retaste our wrath

    By drowning their precious tea.
