Walk Backwards

you and love by
followed one the
true remain
shall I one but
sold I gift a
treasure valuable
a is trust
murdered I've
that with and
accepted have I
for myself from
me for fear I
tongues many
speaks Danger.

Red Chariot

Infinity
lasts for so long
over
vanished and gone
eternity
is time made temporary
branded
ravished into longevity
acceptance
hides in an hourglass
intricate
mastered by been and has

1967

fluidity seeps through
my pen walking on water
time is born
reflect my soul in a mirror
has it ever been so gray?
an artist's empty palette
a canvas choking on dust
heals with every ink drop
it comes to salvage me
as my own blood betrays
heating with anguish...
with memories
A river ending
a shallow creek begins
my brush turns against me
searches for reds
I now have my red water
my color
it pains me
I search to alleviate it
my pen
I will play devil's advocate
it wasn't me
it was never me
it was the paintbrush

Door to Purgatory

word for word
scene after scene
rewinding my mind
to know what it means

seconds pass
creating minutes
regress to the past
forging all the memories

a staircase
winding upward
taking me to the pain
steal joy and move forward
