The New Shape of Monster

Tuesday, November 26th, 2024

The Drip, the drop of emotional rot The pain that ripples, the pain that cripples Waves of creativity sunk by angst Repeating, needing, weeping… Over and over, you and me Thoughts bleed out in the night.

Monsters of a Kind

Thursday, March 7th, 2024

Monsters of a kind Wait beyond this Behind the noise Of the crowd Calling Whispering Muttering the insanity Life’s rhythm Life’s crime To stay still All must change Driving the mind To that hard place Withered and bitter Centered on the new Jelousy may join too Monsters of the Id Hatred may take root Within […]

Old Photos

Friday, May 21st, 2021
