Speaking

Voice with no kind word,

Or kind word without a voice?

Yet both speak sadness.

70 hours / 5 Days

Buzzing blood and ears

Eye twitches as vessel bursts

Time gone forever.

A Frustration

Brevity is hard-

But no "describe in one word"

Entails creation.

The Power of the Alias

Hide your name from us

to help others realize how

great your thoughts can be.

Godliness

To think is human,

But creation is godly.

Aspire to be more.

“Loathe”

In mefloquine dreams

and waves of insanity-

I was overcome.

Uganda 2012

Our van stops to see,

The small body in the road,

Rain falls, we drive on.

Freedom

Anonymously

Declaring my truths without

Fear of recompense.

Snap, Crackle, Pop

Green with jealousy of the light,

In cold we contemplate flight,

But not before

We've done our chore

So there might be more

To take up that good fight,

As we whisper through the streets at night.
