I thought I might do something a little new that deviates from my normal writing habits. I thought I might offer a personal review of a movie I hold dear in my heart. On February 16, 1990 a movie was released in theaters nation-wide called, “Glory.” I am sure many of you know of this…

Pain You Don’t Own

I would like to take a moment and thank you all for reading the madness inside my mind. My journey through life has been one fraught with misadventures, uncertainty, wrong turns and trauma. Having a place here with you guys has given me such a wonderful haven to address my duress. I would not trade…
Battles I Must Fight Alone
Limp in my limbs, I torn once again, in life’s cove swim, I’ve a soul to hem. Evident is my pain so I revel my brain consumes I remain a shade of the sane. Truth is I’m at odds, pleasure is my God. All else to me fraud; I find hard applaud. Come close I…
No Stopping Night
The shore is tumult where I rest a head formed in the tide’s sinews life has lead. Dark lasts so long it consumes most days. No children frolick on shores smile play. It is the way of most realities we do face that we do what we must face our place. Where cold rolls in…
I’ll Meet You There
Something wicked this way it comes; the night it cracks hear beat a drumb. The fell branches that have fallen fast. Wafted bent back has dry green grass. The world moves so in such ways it stays til both you and me we find our graves. I am mesmerized it comfort I have found. That…
What The Hell Am I Doing
I’ve a confession I am a contorter of the light. I manifest colors for my mind to take flight. What will I illuminate in my inclination’s wry sense of humor morbid perspective in my eyes? I shutter to not give in to the bitter aspect for a better part of myself; paths for to me…
Rebel Hurricane
I chew on steel I spit out nails. I spit out fire I walk by myself. I speak in rhyme in what I write. So that ears will feel some delight. For the course I walk same as you scalds the skin I’m branded no shoes. Glass on ground my feet pass over. I reach…
Burn The Shroud
My dear friend do speak as if I’m a child. For truth evades me; and is measured miles. I am dead to truth. Mystified I perplexed my family and still I find I’m still wrecked. Was I tame before the shroud fell away? From my face lace gently singed it stays. Beneath is horror unwanted,…
The Importance Of Diversity
It is sad but the truth is that here now today we do not respect one another as we should. The rancor of hate has no better example than what took place in New Zealand this week. In case you haven’t heard, over 49 lives were taken by a madman with a gun. I know…
They Call You Ambition
My Letter To The Devil I’m more than just a little curious you restore calm amongst the furious. *** It is like your hands wave a wand. One minute there it is then is gone. *** You are no Christ born carpenter you want aggrandizement when through. *** A heaven’s hell is stoked by treason;…
My Slumber’s Journey
In me is a peril as I try and sleep. My head it rests as thunder heats. Shallow slumber does not sustain. Exuded strength is all but in vain. For below where you can’t behold I toss and turn in concerning holes. Depths that sight do not ever reach is where my sight brings me…
Breaking The Facade
I flipped a switch causing a reaction. I burn your facade for my satisfaction. Your face is soft while under is less. You move past the things unaddressed. The links of armor, you pretend to have, show a dim shimmer and break as if glass. Shards on the floor my questions broke your shallow voice…
Why All The Love Stuff?
In my lifetime I have been well versed in the deterioration of the human condition on this earth. My eyes have witnessed and my hands have practiced misgivings. I am no poet nor sage or anyone who possesses any secrets to living a better life. All I know is that on this sphere pain ruminates…
Look Down At The Devil
I can shift and I change. I am of the complex sort. That’ll be misunderstood; judged in the highest court. So I cower and contemplate a fog that arises inside quick; in the air I feel a change in a cloud that enters so thick. I feel eyes as they look up, giving me a…
The Power We Weild
Tender is forlorn in a world of fire. This world’s chaos consumes all in ire. Softness is said to be a sign that’s weak. Yet moments of bliss in our minds we keep. Alleys that are found in cities of grandeur can sullen ones awe and beckon slander. The world is ablaze with hate that…
Truth Be Told…
True to the tune that flows from freeing feelings that I feel let commence healing. I delve to the depths that never reach surface; where eyes can see for those who hurt us. I feel the ever fleeting air leave as I begin rise. Panic pillages my lungs when I find I don’t hide. So…
What No Rhyme Defines
I am walking one foot in front of the other. My left foot is happy that it has another. I walk the line fine I’m luckier than most to appear sane when I’m haunted by your ghost. I’m always happy when it rains washing streets. I just lock myself inside pull over my head sheets….
Seeing Your Art
Clouds full of prose; smiles speaking lines translated in my tears they’re quite sublime. Question my judgement, I’ve been there many times before you defeat fear and solve calamity. My conscience considers where I should proceed. As I take in now slowly your words spoken to me. My prying eyes they do open at enlightenment….
Unsearched Feelings
I’m standing on edge at the climatic scene that involves us both at heart-felt intensity. Refreshing waves they wash over me my being and honestly my love I wonder if I’m breathing. Suffocating anticipation has me gasping breath that surges through me and it scares me to death. I’ve examined myself I try to keep…
Precepts Of My Aged Soul
Affixed to my center are scars from battles my heart has traversed on roads I’ve traveled. What venture for today do you have planned friend? You’ve got adventure all while I pray the day ends. My inner concepts free flow as I sip slowly a bottle while I know your plans call for you at…
Blaming The Reaper
They say look at him now how he tries to work words. Tell him he has no meter and his words, how absurd. He speaks as if he knows how a true poet feels bleed from the heart rhythm and now from lines come speed. I hear them they are right but I know not…
Your Shattered Prism
Visceral tones expressed to me so plain last night, found me and struck me. It brings me such delight. I’m glad your strong to not retreat and to speak the things you find in your mind let your lips release. Don’t leave me blind or guessing in games confused. This is no television show nor…
As We Decompose
We fight in a fight now of reason and just cause. Because we fight this fight against our flaws. Everyday is a lonely lane that I do discover ends in a dead end that takes me to another. Solving the riddle of my own making it shakes me to my sore core so my hand…
Ready Your Trigger Finger
So many people live, so many people don’t. We must go fight fights that some people won’t. Those who believe in only peace and goodwill know the world they don’t now nor ever will. Privelage might blind while spoiled children have not lived in reality where you find villains. Greed and lust fester in our…
What The Moon Teaches
I turn my head to the sky, often dumbfoundedly shocked that we are creatures small; the moon reminds we forgot. Ever there so seemingly peer does the moon from the sky. Underneath it we are chaotic; short-lived with dieing light. What need of us does a sphere, who is constant upon its watch, the answer…
A Journey Of Discoveries
No need of words now that a look has captured. No need of sound now. Such things have raptured. Delivered unto the earth, returned up into the sky. No confusion all is clear and my view is so divine. I have delved deep inside, I have found myself well. So I return back unto the…
I’ve Never Traveled Like This
I’ve traveled far beyond what most have seen on this earth we call host. Love do I this thing that I enjoy. Here in front of you I do rejoice. That you see me as I paint this realm. Upon the earth as if upon a ship’s helm. I steer in the water so many…
My Aims My Place
Did I forget, let us talk about spaces where we plaster thoughts that a mind leaves traces. What would I convey, shall I subside in this way? I do not know this stage only my hallow common cave. I choose to peer at the sea from my perch. Not in shadows hide nor behind curtains…
