12-09-16 Ghosts Of The Jazz Age

deep down underground
inside the old catacombs
where ghostly spirits dwell
ancient feelings are stronger

music echoes from long ago
classic jazz musicians jamming
unlimited hours of vibrations
are all still present in these walls

12-08-16 Alternate Ending

In an alternate universe
Those tragedies never happened
We fought the wars and won
The robots never took over
Extraterrestrials didn't colonize
The animals never went extinct
And humanity survived the apocalypse

12-07-16 Inside You

A drop of blood
Awakens the vampire
Inside you

A drop of whiskey
Unleashes the beast
Inside you

A drop of water
Quenches the thirst
Inside you

12-06-16 Holiday Magic

These biscuits with butter
Are absolutely delicious

This tree is the biggest one yet
It smells like a pine forest in winter

Nothing could compare
To a giant Santa Claus

When we got back home
We decorated the tree

Someone opened a window
Then a chilly wind blew in
And it swept a decoration
Right off the tree flying
Out the window crashing
Down onto the sidewalk

The anxiety is unbearable
Stress is killing us slowly

Unwrapping your gift
It was exactly what I wanted

Believe in magic
It's all we have left

12-05-16 Cable News Sensation

Factual misinformation
Digital indoctrination
Distorted intoxication
Political  masterbation

Trains in the station
Military occupation
Feel the vibration
Birth of a nation

12-04-16 Lite Brite

Don't let
the lights
shine so
bright that
they blind
you from
the things
in life
that matter

12-03-16 Nothing Sweet

Syrup drip drip drips
Whip snap snip slap
Blip blip bloop blob
Corn on the cob

12-02-16 When I See You Again

When I see you
It's like no time
Has passed since
I last saw your face
And your voice
Sounds the same
And your smile
Lights up the room
Until I awaken to find
It was only a dream
And you are still gone

12-01-16 Peace Of Pizza

a fresh slice
right out of the oven
dripping cheese
sloppy sauce
on crunchy crust

11-30-16 Mint

Protected from the elements
Safe and sound inside a box
Warm during the coldest winters
Dry during the wettest rainstorms
Cool during the hottest summers
Untouched as the years roll by
Found again in perfect condition

11-29-16 Crosstown Downpour

The crackle of raindrops
Pouring down in the city
Where I am in solitude
Underneath my umbrella

The city is quiet in a storm
Water rushes through streets
Like temporary river rapids
Cleaning filth off the sidewalk

11-28-16 Shapeshifter On The Subway

Playing fast and loose
With reality in disbelief
Turning into another man
Assume your new identity

Speak in another language
Free speech is under attack
Turn yourself inside out again
Instant backstory behind you

But are you really you
And who are you really
When you get lost in the crowd
It is easy to lose your true self

11-27-16 House Copy

Flip back
Through pages
Yellowed from time

Check back
To find out about
The true history

Read it again
Over and over
At your leisure

Live inside
Stories twice told
Get lost in the fantasy

Keep it safe
For all eternity
To keep knowledge alive

11-26-16 Candle In The Window

Soft light
From a candle
In an open window
Flickering quickly
In a golden glow

11-25-16 Time Traveler On The Run

Predetermined outcome
Several forces at work
Set amount in advance
Finite resources grow

Passion for the surprise
Subtle form of excitement
Guilty pleasure in the dark
On a journey into yesterday

11-24-16 Exile On Bleecker Street

Explode upon the scene
With an appetite for imagery
In the heart of downtown art
Where culture clashes with life
And knowledge is born free

Kiss the beautiful young spirits
Shining with endless energy
Having intense fun at all costs
Where the rules are forgotten
And joy is never in short supply

11-23-16 Dark Undercurrents

Seven moons from nowhere
Soon you will not remember
If you were ever really there

Bloodsucking vampires know
The secret to immortality
Is staying very young at heart

Kiss of the whispering winds
Tell secrets from the underworld
Lifting the veil of ultimate truth

Ancient relics from a forgotten time
Capture the energies released around
To hold inside for eternity until the end

11-22-16 Flash Squad

ghosts of my younger self
now an old shell on a shelf
but no trophies can compare
to that smell in the hot air
when the fuel is pumping
and the music is thumping
spinning grinning winning
on top of the world class
shaking your fine ass
across the dance floor
right out the door
onto the pavement
into the sunset

11-21-16 The First Snowflake Of The Season

When the first snowflake falls
Everything changes to winter
Your mind is filled with wonder
The cold winds blow a bit stronger
Warm clothes are unpacked again
Holiday decorations are put up
Festive dinners are being planned
Time to throw some logs on the fire
Because the first snowflake falls
The first snowstorm is sure to follow

11-20-16 Flashy Showbiz Moves

Piano keys play our song
Late in the evening tonight
Spotlight shines like the sun
A deadly chill is in the air

Sitting in the diner at our table
Drinking warm cloudy tap water
Spreading butter on stale bread
Over cold spaghetti and meatballs

Stop at the gas station on the way
Drive all night on the endless highway
I promise I will still love you tomorrow
Turn up my favorite song on the radio

11-19-16 Ghost House

Ghosts inside the house
Clanking on old pipes
Creaking on wood floors
Haunted around the clock

A short shape flashes past us
Broken mirror glass shattered
Spiderwebs spun in the corner
Someone is watching you now

Kitchen clinks and clatters
A cold breeze blows through
These walls are telling stories
Something is in the room

11-18-16 On The New Road

The new road leads to nowhere
So you keep driving and driving
Without ever really arriving

11-17-16 Sleeping Universe Haiku

Sleeping in the stars
The universe is dreaming
Planets are alive

11-16-16 Flying On Burning Wings

Flying too close to the flame
We were forced to fly higher
And as the heat grew too intense
Our wings began to melt away

Falling through the air
We had some time to reflect
Perhaps we shouldn't have been
Flying too close to the flame

11-15-16 Kiss Of The Space Alien

Magic buried underground
Spirit of nature surrounds
Fire is a gift from the gods
Split screen catastrophes

Life was born in outer space
Dust clouds of golden sparkles
Treasure map to the future
Another dimension is calling

11-14-16 Broken Pieces Of Television

The tunnels are closing in
Under a shroud of suspicion
Made famous in your brains
Darkness comes in disguise

Those old shows you watched
Became new silent memories
Golden promises of future kisses
Playing in the sandbox together

Impressed by the jive you talk
Tongue twisters intertwined today
Fictionalized in vintage styles
Classic images that will live forever

11-13-16 Misty Morning Mind

Misty morning in my mind
Trumpets call and bells are singing
The best of your spirit shines through
Sitting on a subway train going nowhere

Moments of peace still exist
Cinnamon in a warm cup of coffee
Let the words flow like a waterfall
Dreaming of a new form of magic

More thoughts are leaking out
Lightning bolt summer nights are blue
The news was good today for a change
Now the angels have returned

11-12-16 Spirit In The Old Tavern

ghosts are watching
from inside the wood
and you can feel them
if you are awakened

the spirit of an old man
lingers from a long time ago
behind glass mirrors forever
where the voices speak volumes

11-11-16 Reborn Again Today

Complete the cycle
Return to where you started
Birth death rebirth death
Reborn again

You will fly
We will cry
Leaves will die
Eat some pie

Grab a potato
Kiss a frog
Bite a bullet
Love a dog

Best friends are solid
The world is a better place
A salad of words and thoughts
Return to the human race

11-10-16 Beautiful Birds

Beautiful birds
Rising up from ashes
Painting blue skies wild
As oceans flow in harmony

11-09-16 Monsters On Parade

Darkness has arrived
Shadows come alive
Monsters are born
Hearts are torn

We must stand together
To make things right again
We must stand strong
To protect the light for our kids

11-08-16 Devil Of A Man

cult of bloodlust
pay to pray for prey
in the ecstasy of gold

seduced by devil music
he knows what you are
then exploits what you love

see your death in his eyes
promises to be the prophet
and the profits will roll in

he simply wants to eat you alive
to suck your soul into his heart
now your life is owned by evil

11-07-16 A Fresh New Poem

A new poem
Is a fresh adventure
Written in your imagination

A new poem
Is a fresh reflection
Stolen from inside your heart

A new poem
Is a fresh creation
Crafted from your brainwaves

A new poem
Is a fresh expression
Born in the depths of your soul

11-06-16 While You Are Sleeping

While you are sleeping
The world is spinning
Women are giving birth
People are dropping dead

Buildings are being built
Trees are growing up tall
The universe is evolving
While you are sleeping

11-05-16 Exploring Eternity With You

Picture perfect window frame
The fabric of our lives unfolding
Outside exploring in the wild world
Experiencing the evolution of everything

Life seems to fly away so fast
Minutes quickly add up to decades
I wish we could live an eternity
Together right here in this moment

11-04-16 Death Of Democracy

you are about to find out
what it's like to lose
all you ever loved

we are about to see
what it's like to lose
liberty and freedom

11-03-16 The Test Of Time

Walls crumble and fall
Tides turn and oceans flow
Trees grow taller over time
Fine wine gets better with age

Friends will come and go
Trends change with the seasons
Old thoughts become new again
But my love for you remains the same

11-02-16 Stardust Fantasy

Let the stars grow
old together in space
and time for eternity
until it all goes up
into a cloud of dust

11-01-16 Twisted Lovers Entangled

Loaded up on thunder balls
Rocket fire in the morning sun
She might never come back again
You will always remember the fire

We can catch the breezes together
Love is always ready for action now
Intense and aggressive out of the gate
Freak out with the tweakers all night

You'll have to excuse the explosions
Bursting sparkles in your smiling eyes
Listen to the rock and roll in your mind
They can never stop us and we won't quit

The dream you had is still alive here
Look into the mirror for your secret
Emotion like a lightning bolt sizzle
Electric shock straight to your heart

10-31-16 Halloween Is Here

When the ghouls step out
Into the darkness so deep
We get frightened easily
By things that go bump

Creepy crawlers lurking
In the shadows at night
On the prowl around town
Trick or treat in the neighborhood

Scary monster movies on TV
Revenge of the spooky creatures
Dress up like your favorite ghost
Then pig out all day on sweet candy

10-30-16 Rainy Day At The Playground

Everyone stayed home today
It's too stormy to play outside

Heavy raindrops pouring down
Washed out like a waterfall wave

The ballgame has to be cancelled
There are puddles in the outfield

Fun times will be had here again
But today everyone stayed inside

10-29-16 Black Moth

Follow the moonlight
Flutter to the big flame
Flickering after the midnight hour

Black moth in my house
Beautiful flying creatures
Or monsters at the double feature

Visitation from the spirit
Of a departed loved one
With a message from the beyond

I trapped it in a cup
Then set it free outside
It flew away and faded into the night

10-28-16 The Eighties

Memories burned into broken hearts
Scar tissue so deep it won't fracture
Songs that trigger those same tears
Like a time machine from the future

Remember the loss
Complete devastation
It's difficult to miss
What you never had

Hard to forget
The good old pain
Feels a bit better
But never goes away

10-27-16 Peace And Quiet

Inside a quiet space
Where there is no sound
Only time to think
Where there is peace

Inside of the silence
Where there is no talking
Only time for being
Where there is existence

10-26-16 Sunrise On A Quiet Beach

Cool morning breezes
Soothe your soul fire
In waves of salty ocean air

Gazing out at a new dawn
Across the great horizon
Promising fresh rays of hope

10-25-16 First Days Of Hibernation

too many days
spent chipping away
adding up bucket drops
waiting for the sun to run out

wave to the sky
catch a dream tonight
listen to the breeze blow
watch all the trees grow

dry rain showers
tears running down
the flowers are all dried up
while animals fade into extinction

10-24-16 Sleepy Brains On The Train

Dark cold morning
Sleepwalking through
Damp subway tunnels
Half dreaming awake

Lost in a mental fog
Thinking about conspiracies
Paranoid from nightmares
Living in a fantasy land

Early hours fade away
Tumbling into tomorrow
Forgetting to remember
Half of what we already knew

10-23-16 The Outer Space Inside

Rocket line straight through
To the great beyond out there
Entering into another dimension
Laughing all the way to Jupiter

Search to find a spiritual outcome
There must be meaning in the stars
Meeting someday soon on the moon
Seeking a place to build a civilization

10-22-16 Saturday Night At Wrigley Field In October

Thick electricity crackling
Energy flowing in waves
Be brave and bathe in it

10-21-16 We Are Free

We are free
To pretend to be
Anything we like

We are free
To play fun games
All day long

We are free
To use imagination
In the art of creation

We are free
To love one another
Like a big family

10-20-16 Life Is An Illusion

You are not here
Here is not here
You are not you
There is no here

Everywhere is nowhere
Never where you ever are
Something is really nothing
When nothing is everything

10-19-16 Sing Your True Song

Search for your song
Listen to the breeze
Look for it in the trees
In the buzzing of bees

Find your true song
In the books you read
In every good deed
In the music you bleed

Sing your sacred song
Out loud into the sky
At the top of mountains high
Then you will really fly

10-18-16 Out To Sea

Like tall tales told
In an old sea captain's legend

The seas will only forgive
If the winds will allow it

A love affair with the ocean
Ends on the edge of the horizon

A love affair with the city
Ends on the floor of a fancy hotel

10-17-16 Silent Radio

It might be on another planet
Or it could be in the future
Happening live as you see it

Listen to the music of the universe
Traveling through sonic spaceways
Lost inside a shift in the fabric of time

Songs that make your heart sing
It means everything when you need it
Soul medicine to soothe your spirit

10-16-16 Eating Crickets In The Woods

there is no time
then a water cup came
to read a good book
before a bear bumbled
into a fumble bush
mumbling something
about the keeper of snakes

we're not going to write
about creepy bugs today
but if we talk about bugs
the bugs will eat everybody

10-15-16 Hot Soup Haiku

Hot soup warms my bones
All the best ingredients
Cooking on the stove

10-14-16 Pieces Of You

we will carry your light
inside our empty world
into a future without you

we will carry your words
inside our empty pages
into a chapter without you

we will carry your love
inside our empty hearts
into a new life without you

10-13-16 Earth Tones

green green grass
brown tree leaves
clear blue skies
orange sunshine

let the spirit flow
across the ocean
in thriving gardens
alive on this planet

10-12-16 When This Chapter Ends

One last word
Before we close the book
To look up at the sky
Gazing beyond the horizon

Now you are free
To fly again on golden wings
We'll keep your love
Locked safely inside our hearts

10-11-16 Feelings Between You

Windmills in the winter
Coconut candy cocktails
Superhero sandwiches
The old bookstore closed

Animals in the ocean breeze
Take the tide forward home
Listen closely to the thunder
Take the time to live and learn

Love everything you've got
Pass along the good energy
Hold away the dark at last
Sing songs from your heart

10-10-16 Shifting Patterns Of Creation

when it all comes down
nothing feels the same way
to change your page around
full of love yourself without

tangle with the beast for best
results shake firmly before
opening up the bottle together
to drink from the cup of salvation

restless syndrome criminals resist
to live out those unimaginable lies
giving in to fairytale fantasy dreams
where we all win the superstar prize

10-09-16 Let Me Show You

Holding your little hand
When we get on the subway
The world looks so big
When seen through your eyes

Excitement of new discoveries
The magical wonder of childhood
Reaching those golden milestones
I'm glad we get to share it together

10-08-16 Comic Con Shakedown Party

Lazy afternoon reading comic books
Superheroes in your neighborhood
Cosplay champions shine on display
Sunday cartoon colors come alive

Villains plotting to take over the world
Intense energies exploding all around
Characters in toy land are reanimated
I spent all my money on action figures

10-07-16 Phantom Language

missing words and phrases
disappear then reappear
floating out in the universe
before putting pieces together

sliding through consciousness
poems are born and then reborn
the sentiments live on forever
invisible thoughts become tangible

10-06-16 Phlegm Balls

green globs
oozing down
sore throats
choking mucus
congestion
tastes like
infection
burning hot
swallowing
razor blades
dripping snot
cough it all up
then spit it out
in a bloody mess

10-05-16 A Fool's Golden Ticket

do you remember me
we met on my way up
now i am begging here
on my way back down

we crossed this bridge
together at the beginning
now i have come back
to find this bridge burned

can you still see me here
untouchable and invisible
fading away into nothing
like i never even existed

10-04-16 Stolen Gypsy Heart

You stole my heart
And sold it to the gypsies

Now my feelings
Are far away in another place

The fortune teller
Was right about losing my love

Now you're gone for good
While I still feel the pain so far away

10-03-16 Ride The Blue Whale

Freewheeling western drive attitude
Famous in your own mind destruction
You look so cool standing in the mirror
Look out for more luxury reflections

Technology takes us to many places
To make it seem like all is well today
But while you are off in zombie dreams
You're being distracted from your doom

Success comes in many different faces
Capture the glory and pass the torch
Kids these days don't have a chance
Maybe someday they will live in space

The countdown to extinction has begun
When the earthquake hits it will all change
Mosquitos will bring death to your door
Only the power of love can save you now

10-02-16 Windows Into Tomorrow

unwritten thoughts
lost forever to the ages
dissolved into nothing

variety show spotlight
dance routine on ice
washed up comic bombing

head in the sand on demand
time is twisting up all around
simple sweet kisses are eternal

listen to the voices of the universe
alternate realities run in parallels
extraterrestrial space creatures are here

10-01-16 Ice Angels

snowflake kisses
landing on your
rose red cheeks

perfume of winter
minty deep breaths
vanilla frosted bliss

feelings forgotten
remember their faces
listen to their voices

soft crystals sparkle
in silver moonlight
in crisp evergreen

09-30-16 Last September Haiku

Going back to school

Baseball season is ending

Leaves are turning brown

09-29-16 Poison In The Water

all the time it's terrifying

to know you need me to win

contribute to the tribe to survive

now you're extra super paranoid

09-28-16 Unfriended

Everyone is turned on
But no one is tuned in

Everyone is plugged in
But no one is connected

Everyone is watching
But no one is aware

Everyone is alive
But no one is living

09-27-16 Life Is Fast

We spoke yesterday

Now suddenly you're gone

In the blink of an eye

On the brink of life

From birth to death

Or everywhere inbetween 

We learn to walk

We learn to love

We learn to work 

We learn to die

Only alive in photos

and in my memories

trying to remember 

the sound of your voice

Every day it's 

business as usual

wake up early

work your ass off

Holidays next month

Bills due next week

Frozen dinner again

Forgot to pick up milk

All those jokes he told 

She never finished her book

You still have to fix the car

Your fresh green plant

Sitting on the window

In unlimited sunlight

But after you left

No one watered it

Now it's all dried up

We spoke yesterday 

Now suddenly you're gone

09-26-16 Poisoned Planet Blues

Running out of time
Walls are closing in
Days are getting short
The water level rises

Sun is shining hotter
Ice mountains melting
Pollution in the air now
Your future is at stake

09-25-16 Find Your Self

You came here to win
Now you find yourself
Going home a loser

09-24-16 Baseball Game At The Zoo

There was a bear cub

Who hit a home run

Into the bleacher seats

Then there was a hen

Who hit the ball straight

Out of the ballpark 

Next the snakes came

Up to bat with nobody out

But none of them scored

So we cheered for the dolphins

And they didn't strike out

They won the game in style

09-23-16 Kids In The Neighborhood

All good in the universe
Labels and differences don't matter
We are all the same in this game
Look around the neighborhood
At the other kids sitting alone
Let's all play together

09-22-16 Almighty Designs

Dreaming of awakenings
Mad with lousy dipping birds
One last chance to shine again
The creeps crawl after sunset

California earthquake changes
Life on Earth as we know it
Don't blow it with a gold show
The universe will tell the truth

Get lucky and break a dozen
Pizza money for your paycheck
Your heart will reveal itself  to us
Crying teardrops with your eyes

09-21-16 Boiling Point

no single person
can solve the problem
so we all have to work
together with respect

protests turn violent
riots in the streets
peace is the answer
love will stand strong

let's bring about change
i will lend you a hand
find the truth of mankind
spread the word to everyone

09-20-16 The Life Of An Urban Flower

A small flower
Grows up
Through a crack
In the sidewalk

Where a tiny seed
Once landed
Before the rains
Before the sunlight

Defying the odds
Staying alive
Against the elements
Until somebody steps on it

09-19-16 Monday Morning Sleepy Time

Pouring rain
Morning chill
Shivering bones
Under the covers

Autumn wind
Rattling glass
Squeaking door
Creeking floor

Back to sleep
Monday blues
Can't get out
Of bed today

09-18-16 Lucky Charms

you're in LUCK

out of LUCK
dumb LUCK
good LUCK

your
LUCKY
day

some people have all the LUCK

others have no such LUCK at all
make your own LUCK in life
wishing you the best of LUCK

09-17-16 Sunny Rain Delay

Fun in the summer
Chomping on hot dogs
Gulping cold lemonade
On a hot sunny day

Tie score with two men on
Two outs in the fifth inning
Three balls and two strikes
Crack of the bat like thunder

Dark clouds rolling in
Rains pouring down on us
Soaking wet in the afternoon
Waiting for the game to resume

09-16-16 Do Your Part To Prevent Armageddon

The destruction of nature
Has been evolving for
Over a century now

Sadly we have already done
Irreversible damage to our planet
And we have depleted Earth's resources

Now is the time to stand up
For our world and for our children
To save the planet from premature death

If we do not act immediately
We will soon see the extinction
Of all life on Earth

09-15-16 Then And Now

Forget about the memories
Pieces of the past
Put to the test
Restful at best

Live in peace
Love at last
Be conscious now
Exist in this very moment

09-14-16 Transition Into The Atmosphere

Disappear into thin air
Evaporate into nothingness
Your spirit lives on again
A ghost in a winter storm

Selling lightbulbs by the dozen
Riding the zombie train express
Straight into another dimension
Returning to yesterday's future

Kissing goldfish at the aquarium
It's nice to have a home to hide in
Down by the sandy beaches of time
Dust blowing away into the wind

Several dolphins carry messages
Bringing hope to a hopeless place
Changing someone's life for the better
Making a difference in the world today

09-13-16 Monsters In Your Bed

Maybe four or more pieces
Keep the peace to say the least
Bulldogs flying through the air
Lightning flashes thunder crashes

Fried brains on a silver plate
The power of chocolate revealed
Bulldozer jackhammer sidewalk
Get out and stroll around town

Toxic water is not ok to drink
Radioactive supermarket feast
Machine gun underwear circus
Fight against the forces of evil

09-12-16 Cyborg Love Machine

Machines combined 

Tears roll down your face

Gears grind down over time

A tender embrace together

Engines burning dirty fuel

Beautiful feelings of bliss

System function setting shift

Sweet kisses pop like bubbles

Programming glitch overload

Emotional connection in love 

09-11-16 Nature Is Truth

Wind blows
Trees sway
Leaves float
Sun shines

09-10-16 Saturday Night Videos

Crystal clean kisses gleam
Laser beams and jellybeans
Root beer floats in mink coats
Time travel underwear trance

Vampire pirates bite your neck
Hot wings sizzling in the dark
Another nice day with the devil
Secret dreams beneath your skin

Moonlight is infinite as space
Pizza is the food of the gods
Lemonade stand on the road
Make a million bucks today

09-09-16 Selfish Jellyfish Smelly Face

Ugly face on your tattoo
Ugly tattoo on your face
Make up won't cover it
It won't cover your make up

Rings of jewelry bling out
Fingers of silent success
Strung out on cheese sticks
Hot wings flying deep fried
Can't get enough champagne
Free for all to see at the mall
Calling all fall fashion freaks
You can't deny you hate it

Never mind a trip to Neverland
Whenever you need to escape
Scrape the dirt out from your eyes
Hanging out with mythical creatures
Smart phones will capture Sasquatch
First before the hunters have a chance
You never even tried to find the money

Broken down social structure
Nothing hurts more than pain
Kiss me goodnight never again
In dreams of rotting pumpkins
Stolen in a daring midnight raid
To fill the bags full of candy

Fortune teller told me to run
Stay home to avoid the curse
Stepping on the bird's nest cure
Sucked knowledge from plants
Vanished on a visit to the zoo
Reading books on the subway
Missed your stop again today

The east meets west the easy way
Somebody turned off the music
Street songs bubbling from below
Underground steam rising above
Like the night light in Philadelphia
Walking barefoot through history

Leave your mark one way or another
Murky mud in the muck luck savage
Between screams the beans explode
Eating spaghetti sauce on a white carpet
Always soft and crisp in plastic wrap
In a better mood before the big bang boom

Your technology dissolves against life
The tide we turn will churn the water
Sandy beaches broken back again here
Where you never smash your hot dog
I rarely even drink sweet soda anymore
Trying to take healthy steps to get better

09-08-16 Ticking Away

broken clock works
always running out
where there is never
enough to go around

years and days pass
marching on again
in relentless ravages
through persistence

the only move
is out in the universe
we all have to share
this planet together

there is no difference
between you and me
we are both the same
brothers without a name

on another journey
our paths will cross
and we'll have fun
when we have time

so little left to spend
it heals all wounds
it is of the essence
but it always runs out

09-07-16 Left Behind

Everything is in the same place
Exactly how you left it
But now you are gone
And all that remains
Is what you've left behind

09-06-16 Mystery Masterpiece Blend

Keep it fresh
Feel the flow
So many styles
In the pocket

Ride the waves
Inside your brain
Reverse mind twist
Switch back again

Split second decision
Changed life forever
Fortune breeds glory
Fashion bleeds insanity

Electric youth parade
Next revolution phase
Experimental hot lunch
Energy is eternal

Balloons on fire
Across the ocean
Madness for passion
Open action channel

Rest stop mafia
Truck driving man
Fast food feast
On the road

Hurt your heart
Don't stop now
Heal the pain
Open new wounds

Turn the pages
Read the book
Write your story
Make a movie

09-05-16 Summer Mix Tape

a heart
that launched
a thousand
love stories
has endured
the pain
of rejection
and has enjoyed
the thrill of
passion

those pieces
are shattered
so you can
stash them
in your pocket
or hold them
in a locket

chapter nine
love potion
spring fever
young lust
summer blues
reggae sun splash

favorite songs
on a mix tape
for you to have
and listen to
every time
you miss me

09-04-16 Still Missing You

Life goes on
Seasons change
Babies are born
The world turns

But there is not
One single day
That goes by
Where I don't
Feel the pain
Of losing you

09-03-16 Unlimited Dreams Reborn

In another language
Paradise grows inside us
Fulfilled to the extreme
Exactly as you wish it to be

We make dreams reality
Wired into the main network
Watching the movie of our life
Wandering through the universe

Living in outer space
Sliding on moonbeams
Drifting out in the stars
Surfing the cosmic waves

09-02-16 Notes From The Echo Chamber

inspiration is everywhere
in pools of love and madness
flowing ever so strange
like a fountain of knowledge

couples holding hands together
kissing on the sunny sidewalks
or in the dark of midnight light
glowing under the silver moon

influence for your thoughts
a penny weighs a thousand pounds
we don't care about your problems
that sounds like a nightmare

out at the beach with x-ray vision
playing in the fresh radiation waves
splashing in the sunshine sand castles
never had this much fun before

09-01-16 Eyewitness To The Experience

Did you see it
Drifting through the night
Like a lightbulb flying away

Did you hear it
Roaring across the sky
Like a fireball blazing

Did you taste it
Burning on the tip of your tongue
Like licking the top of a jet engine

Did you smell it
Smoking up the planet
Like gasoline and brimstone

Did you feel it
Touching your heart
Like a physical epiphany
