Darkness plagues us, stillBlack White Light
Where is that storm I summoned
To keep me on my heels
From whom others retreat
As I instead advance
One with fierce energy
That will match intellects
Against all odds draw near
Whose heart I need not fear
Your Kind of Alone
Your brightest hours yet
May these hours be
Candle-lit
For when the dark reminds you
It is the eleventh hour
The day is waning
Your heart is longing
And you haven’t met me yet
Sleep Demons
It’s not our fault, the night
Racing in to become the pace car to our heart rate
That it might conquer
Why weave these words, darkness, ’round our ankles?
Utterances we used to need to hear, that would have us walking tall?
I can’t say your name, but your number, I know
‘Til my last breath, I call you the liar you be
Your wishing to blackmail
Your attempt to bruise
Reality we now enjoy
Ask us to wrestle, and wrestle we will
For you have lost us
To flowers and fauna
Forever to smiles from friends
Again
And over again
MY Day, Damn It
Perpetuity
Theater of the absurd
You, an understudy into perpetuity, and not a soul who will say why
Though they know
Sworn to silence by some darkness, by some angel
Enter they, the arena, to take their places, their cues
Applaud, then heckle, then leave without a fight, or even debate
Virtual Rise: A Haiku
This solemn promise
You will not be forgotten
By darkness you sought
Endlessly
I think
I know
I myself
Will never
Resign
The dark, therefore, need not worry
If ever
At all
It did
Feel so
Inclined
Dark: A Haiku
You are not my God.
You royal son of someone.
I won’t kneel to you.
You Remain
Then you are ruin
A puddle stepped in by mistake
And not out of Vivre!
You are confetti
The nuisance forgotten
And not the heralded
You are the dark
Shuttered away alone
Not the blessed cool of eve’
