Age of Emptiness
In an age of emptiness
in the ways of nonsense
the meaning of life
is meaningless
If we stand
do we each alone
single thoughts under
single days and nights
'The fertile fallow furrow
fleeting under flurries of fressly
fallen snow.'
for sure...
And we are the huskless stalks
shivering in the wind
row upon row
thousands upon thousands

Cybersexy Poem
She sent a message
to me
And I could feel her
stroking my keys
She was clicking onto my interest
Next message, if you please
If I could get you
between my comma
Maybe semicolon you
I'm sure I could make
an exclaimation point
Wrap my parenthesis around you
I could ravage
all your vowels
I could click into propend
And at the proper moment
most intense
I would touch the 'send'

God's Cruel Gift
It was God's cruel gift
He gave to me
To look into someone
Through their heart and see
Their eyes are portals
Through which light flees
Be it white or dark
Reveals unto me
The words they say
Or in silence be
Unto my Eye
There is all to see
Sometimes the overload
Thousands of touch
Looking for gold
Not finding much

Death Come Closer
Come closer death,
You've become a close friend
There is comfort in your pressence
Peace from your touch
I always thought you would
Come to take away
But you come giving instead
How wrong have I been mislead
Come sit beside me and share
My company...now I see we are
So alike, so much and so the same
Come...one toast
If it may be my last
So sweet is the nectar
So good unto the last

Notebook Scraps
I, had my marker
I made my way
And the chances not taken
Have all slipped away
There are the leaves
Scattered over the grave
There lie the dreams
As fate has it's say
The cold wind blows
The chances not taken
Into the darkness
Will never be 'waken
Flowers
Are made of petals
Earth,
Wind,

Poem That Deserves No Name
My aching heart,
Longs for you
Lay down a tear
Murmuring a sad song go on
There are mountains to cross
The cold and snow
There are the frozen rivers below
And valleys to go
And time that will be spent
And no time for memories lent
Yet I carry this pain
Like valour, a medal feined
Carry this alone and carry on
Murmuring a sad song
My tear stained aching heart
Belongs to you

Eternity
I, follower of foolish
maker of mistake
stumbler at the gate
Blinded by the night
maker of the left
from the right
I caught the every thing
of eternity
but just not fast enough
Flash - here and gone
for that is all
That eternity is
A moment seized
like air gone
and it flies off forever

Leap
The vines of love
Have all died
The leaves of kisses
All withered
And blown away
The storm clouds
Bellow and bluster
Flash in anger
And in silence sit I
with 'alone' an old friend of few words
Time has come, the damage done,
Reparations are made impossoble.
You wear a smile that's a frown inside
Goodbye to all the insults,
All the jeers and innuendos
Time to make a leap

Keep the Pain
I caught it laying down
The sound carried me away
And I was gone
'And when you see love over your shoulder
will it be as you are running away? '
Saw the sun arising this morning
And I saw it as no wonder
And now I'm wondering
'And when you tasted love
has it all come asunder? '
I could have been a pessimist
But I wasn't up to it
Thru all the good given
I decided I would keep the pain

Stevie Taite's version of, 'Kick the Can'.
Kick that can
Resounding rattle
Pockets tugged down
With loves lost battle
Stubborn kicks
Along the road
Shoulders low
A loveless load
We've all been there
And cans we've dented
At dented hearts
How we repented
But life goes on
Just like that walk
Until we meet
Another fork
