March 2019 – Stumbling along the sidewalk

Car Crash Fever

Car crash fever,

Totaled now.

Such a teaser,

Go to the show.

Saw one for only

Seven thou-.

Miles on it,

Hundred fifty thou-.

Wonder what

You’d think is best.

What I need

Is just a rest.

First I’ve got

To buy a car.

Then I’ll think

About tomorrow.

Up

Shopping sequel pizza triangular comma

Talented quietude visceral boathouse we

Hello mighty morph queen hat coolest it

Pollution radio geese green yellow tanks

Pony try dead but booth justice ready up

Broken

A piano-worth of weight

Pulls me down into a chasm.

I speed through the depths,

Falling in freezing wind.

I scream,

And my voice is swallowed up

By the mountain around me.

Tears run down my face,

When I hit the ground.

My legs have collapsed beneath me.

I cannot stand the force of the impact.

No one knows I am here.

I’m alone and broken.

What will I do?

In Search of Serenity

Coasting comfortably on the caress of clouds.

Reaching for meaning in every breath.

Thinking of the crowd of witnesses,

Their tender hands outstretched with love.

Is there truth that surpasses understanding?

Is there hope amidst these evil days?

I count the steps to reach your door,

Yearning for rest, bidding to journey no more.

Only a promise from the precious few

Can treat the soreness of a broken soul.

Come, join the chorus, summoning grace

From the bright heavens above.

Spirit in the Wind

Laying on the grass,

I summon your spirit back to me.

Can you feel the blast

Of the chilly winter wind?

Come with me to the end

Just wind up your mind

And let it all go.

Do you feel the change of pace

Echoing through this silly place?

As I Am

Empty screams echo off the walls

Of my simple soul, at night. It crawls.

The weeds from my garden

Creep up my legs. They twist around

My knocking knees. I count the cries

I hear in my head. I can’t imagine

What’s filled me with dread.

I don’t know if I’m alive or dead.

Give unto me some wine and bread.
