'Eternal Deadlock'
That is where we are
He won't even give an inch
And I won't go that far.
It started many years ago
And much to my dismay
I didn't know the reason
'Till my life had slipped away
And then it seemed so foolish
I didn't even care.
He'll have to take his hate to hell
And I will join him there.

'Electric Encounter'
Caught in its field
As our eyes met
Compelling...
We stood in the moment
Hearing just hearts
Primal beat
The ancient drums
That kindle
Love's sweet flame.

'Crescendo'
The fiddler plays
Whilst I ride the
Strains of sadness
In his song.
He knows that he can
Carry me along
To re-live with him
The moment that we died
When love was lost
No matter what we tried.
Play...Fiddler....Play!
Till our hearts have shed
And pool of sorrows bled
That I may someday
Ride with you
On strains of light
To new and awesome
Journeys in the night...

'Futile'
I planted
A field of Flowers
To harvest seeds
The devil
plucked them all
And left the weeds.

'The Gun'
Precision to perfection
Work of art
Solid...heavy
Demanding respect
Smooth to the touch
Hungering for powder
and pellet
For which it was born
to taste.
It spews forth
With trigger
Action haste
Just doing what it
was designed to do.
Are YOU?

'Silent Friend'
To my secret place
Where hollow tree
Stands serene
I run for solace
I touch...then grasp
And squeeze
This dead old tree
Until my shaking yields
and settles
Into calm embrace
Awakened from
Life's tangled web
and stilled the
Rumblings Roar
Consented to forgive
and thankful unto
God once more...

'The Lie'
How often we kill
The truth with a lie
Never thinking what
Demons...loose
Now can fly...
Circling like vultures
Waiting for chances
The lie grows bigger
The vulture glances
Waiting to go
right in to attack
His target the Liar
There's no turning back..
