Whirlwinds Of Life

ultimately we search for the best words to fit the pictures, rhythm, and flow from our souls as we so

Various Types

I crept upon a dozing rhyme
To steal a line of spinning dimes
Glistening in morning dew
Were fairies with an attitude
Sharpened verbs to trip into
Are hidden in the deepest blue
Dressed in black to indicate
An exclamation by the lake

Opposing forces congregate
Inside a realm of glass,
Maybe stay to contemplate
This hyphen killing class -
Thumped with force
For tainted views
My gift of purple acid shoes
Roam freely in the petting zoo
While kicking dogs and
Getting chewed

So much for this aftermath
Of revelations fading fast
No quarter to be given
Like a broken hourglass-
Tests of time are dwindling
Behind my mirrored walls
Shattered into prisms
As the browser starts to fall

Places

I heard a little voice
Inside my head
Telling me to do as I please,
Doesn’t really matter
Because time’s already
Started to freeze-
A tiny itch in my jacket pocket
Brings everything back
Into place -
Memory in tatters
Now my words can’t find
A place to stay…
Sitting in the darkness
With this gun in my hand
Shooting at those wasted lines
Tear it all apart
Maybe I need to
Be a different man-
Echo chambers in the
Dead of cold night
Distorted by this heart of mine,
Silently shattered
And you don’t need
To know the reason why…
Passing quickly
Like a train of emotion
As the guilty soul
Begins to hide,
It’s not that I don’t feel life -
But i might never
Ride this way again,
Fading swiftly
While the sun sets slowly
Telling me to do as I please-
This is where I belong
Because I’m always where
I’m supposed to be

It’s all a part of the
same old story
Nothing really changes
very much

Those fringes of snow gather
Upon a scarred and
weathered dome
Covering mountains
of memories
Hidden amongst dense
white clouds
Of smoke rising from a blackened
Spirit of ash

A blinding flash
Behind black piercing eyes
As talons of an eagles claw
Grasp tightly within shadows
Of inconsistencies

Mere figments at that
far corner
Of peripheral vision
Disappear silently once again
Leaving me breathless
Perched on a precipice
With dual personalities
Riding shotgun on this never ending
Road to nowhere

Maybe a journey,
But could be a sentence -
Understanding is knowing
When one ends
And the other begins

Backslider

Blackened venom
Slowly drips
From that poisonous
Quill which was
Stolen from
Yesterdays written
Phantom,
as the
Page began to
Fade away
You disappeared
-----
Completely swallowed
By swirling
Misty
Darkness-
Still
So far yet,
How much farther
To travel alone
Across this
Portion
Of the wasted seasons?
I felt lost
Without your
Reflection upon my
Black soul,
But now there is
Nothing within
Reflective consequence-
And I have become
Empty of
Joy,
Pain is seeping
From a bag
Of poetry I
Am forced to
Relive
Again and
Again-
It seems exhaustion
May be a
Doorway to
The other side
So I sleep only
When amphetamines
And Ghostly whispers
Can no longer
Sustain
This journey
Back to
You...

Social Anxiety

Ghosts are real
Inside my head
With voices speaking
Of the dead,
The day is beautiful
Dark and gray-
Thunderous glory
Here to stay

I’ve carried flames
And tortured hearts
Down riversides
To drown their sparks,
Gazed into souls not
Meant to be
Upon this plane
With me and thee

Decaying skin
Attractive only to
Those which can
Properly digest
That yellow ooze
Dripping from my
Ruptured spirit
Staining the pages
Of those who have
Moved on

Ghosts are real
Indeed and
It is a beautiful day
To be
Or not to be…

Dragonfly

I woke up this morning
With chains around my heart
Shacked to feelings
That are tearing me apart
It’s been like an endless dream
I’ve tried and then I failed
This couldn’t be heaven
It looks a lot like hell

A candle in the window
To light the way back home
Been out here a while now
So lost and all alone
Following memories
Along this road for years
So many are resting on
This lonely trail of tears

Smoke in the distance
Seems to only fade away
Futile resistance means
I never found a way
To get what was lost in time
Before I get off track
The darkness is coming and
Those dragonflies are back

Storms

Deadman twists a blunt
Then stares
Into the fires of Neverwhere,
Beyond those stars
Are flaming pairs-
But that is neither
Here nor there,
Residue drips from my pen
Onto the page
Then felt within -
Scratches made by
Claws of steel
Dance in my chest
To close that deal,
Shadows dance while
Phantoms sway
In sunshine
Where those devils play -
Deadman blinks
Then looks away
Into those storms of
Yesterday

The candles always burn,
Echoing screams of violence
In the darkness-
Are you ready for
the challenge?

Bold and fiery,
The flames dance
As shadows fight for
Attention-
Will you stand still
Or join the fray?

A cloud of smoke
Obscures the sky,
But the sound of
Clashing gates resonates-
What lies beyond
The horizon?

Finish Line

I’ve been traveling softly
Across this desert of
Broken glass,
I closed my eyes then
Took two steps back
Into those memories of
Years gone past

Fingers trembling slightly
Trying so hard to read
Those fading signs,
Have I forgotten the
Way back home -
How many more
Wasted miles
Will die behind me
Before I reach the end
And cross that sacred line,
You say I’m crazy
But my voices told
That I’m doing fine -
Tomorrow’s another road,
Here comes the dawn

I’ve been walking so slowly
Down this highway of regret,
Soul is trembling slightly
But my spirit said
That we’re not finished yet

Ways

Fading light illuminates
These scars upon
That page which
Has been turned,
Treasured souls are
Stored inside this
Realm of no return-
Footsteps will soon
Be blown away revealing
None of us can stay,
Nature can’t be stopped
Let’s bow our heads
And let us pray…
Moments numbed by
Drifting memories
Dive headlong
Into a flowing stream,
Floating past soft whispers
In and out of lucid dreams-
Emotions scattered flawlessly
Inside a barely beating heart
Those bonds are tied together
Love cannot be torn apart

True destiny is ours to live
Sometimes the road
May disappear-
Journey lightly with a smile
There’s nothing here to fear,
Those eyes which shine
Could be a friend
Along this path of disarray,
Darkness finds us soon enough
There is no other way

Ironic Due

How was this even
Allowed to happen,
So many have been
Met along this twisted
Journey,
I can honestly say that
Most have disappeared-
We probably wouldn’t
Know it if we met again
Somewhere down the line

But definitely there are
Memories to visit with,
Some good vibrations
Spread like sunshine
And then those wild years
Which are more like
Flashbacks of another person
Who was wearing the
Same skin
And seeing with these
Bloodshot eyes
Atrocious and despicable
Acts of violence
Against that machine
Which steals our souls
And rewards us with death

I don’t know how,
But my animated co**se
Still walks among you-
So many variations
Synchronize
Those precious encounters
Into a blurred vision
Of a past best remembered
And learned from,
Each step measured
With veracity in stride -
It is the bitter irony
Of existence
