Infused with tones, hues
Serene, sublime, the path fools
Predator hides, waits
Within fresh green, gold
Hidden by nature, beauty, bold
He captures, sedates
Beyond garden’s edge
Shadowed and dewy, the ledge
Where remains her fate
Pay attention

Swallow it down
turn him ON
Bright!
Cast out the shadows
the dark, dank
Blight
Flip it
Switch it
Illuminate the night
I AM incandescent
Join my brilliance
Join my fight
Let’s consume the darkness
Absolve others
Eat, breathe light
Cast out demons, open hearts,
bask in warmth
For all the right
Reasons
Until darkness
Comes again
Hungry

Caught in the smoke
ring eddy of blues
and lust
Neon shines
through dust
in the lonely hours
Proof, high, twice
too many whiskey sours
nightmares, dreams
Secrets, illusions
Life’s as it seems
when filled-crack edifice falls
Wasted stories
within these walls
milky dew lost to the night
So much left
despite the blight
and drought of true connection

I consume the hearts I win
You collect them
You collect them
break them
sin
sin
I feed hunger, needs within
You’re just trifling
squelching
din
squelching
din
Neither one of us pretends,
Feigns regret,
lets love
come in
Feigns regret,
lets love
come in
Perhaps we make up yang and yin
Both content
with veil
so thin
with veil
so thin
of humanity

Formed
of
dissonance,
their lofty,
soft appearance
does deceive
For in the eyewall
past the core,
winds ~
fierce velocity
achieve
On occasion,
The well-grounded
get a sense
of the discord
But another’s forecast
cannot calm
storm brewing
untoward
