Road To Hell

 
A blind neglect

imbues our sleep

Where idle hides

a wound cut deep


 
The apathetic

coward reigns

when good intention

— rhymes with pain


(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)


 
Charlie’s Hand

 
"And when we meet in joy again

an Angel's welcome to befriend

As Heaven's Gate swings open wide

Saint Peter waiting just inside

With Charlie reaching out his hand

— to take us to the Promised Land"


 
(The First Book Of Prayers: March, 2026)


Piercing The Veil

 
The tip of your pen

its inkwell unleashed

to vanquish the darkness

where liars will sleep

 
The point of your spear

finds the darkest heart

To kill and impugn

— where depravity starts


(The New Room: March, 2026)


Wasteland

 
Staying a stranger

defines who you are

Living in darkness

— alone and afar


 
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)


 
Walking The Line

 
An unfortunate truth ...

a fortuitous lie

 
The first calls you inward

— the second to die

 
(Dreamsleep: March, 2026)
