ONCE I WAS… Once I was the lyrics of someone’s song The magic that made dreams I was fantasy and imagination I was ecstasy The passion of my heredity. The Spirit in another’s soul. But nothing is forever That’s the nature of this world A temporary condition A brief state of mind Blind to the reality...

AFFLICTION There is much I want to say More I want to do But my hands don’t slide across the keys As they used to do And I tire with the words as I speak Too weak to listen Too deep in my mortality As the minutes inflict Their cruel determination. And I wait. There is much we want to say More we...

TENDER HEARTS Tender and gentle hearts make the best meal For wolves, cannibals and those of that ilk. Words of honey and silk Bring you to striking distance Before the kill.

CANNIBALS You never were kind to me I never did know why You broke precious dreams With each lie Many times I turned away Yet I had so much to say. Moments wasted Lost forever I counted the minutes The hours quickly passing by Little time I have But you knew that. You violated my gentility Ravished...
