AloneMelancholy sound rolls o'er the plains
I sit inside and watch the rains
Everyone else has deserted
I choose to stay and feel the pain.

Very few know the death they skirted
Cannot be so easily averted
I sit and watch dust devils spin
With life they briefly flirted.

Darkened by sin
To despair they gave in
From the Light they turned
Instead finding solace in bullets and gin.

Overhead the sun burns
No place for a sojourn
I sit before the glowing embers
To the stars my heart yearns.

In this desert of faded Decembers
Tattered remnants clothe my members
Coyotes mourn in deepest black
Perhaps the rocks alone remember.

I shall not fear an enemy a
The Grand DesignEngineering the foundations beneath the stars
Now curving space-time as spinners at the loom
Trajectories across light-years fixed
Pleasure found in the excellence of His work

Now curving space-time as spinners at the loom
The morning stars joyously singing alleluia!
Pleasure found in the excellence of His work
Stars in cadence shining for their Master

The morning stars joyously singing alleluia!
Before that dread Serpent fell from Heaven
Stars in cadence shining for their Master
The Universe drawn open as a curtain

Before that dread Serpent fell from Heaven
Trajectories across light-years fixed
The Universe drawn open as a curtain
Enginee
Banbury CrossRiding the rails to Banbury Cross
To make a quick selling of mint-covered moss
I spy the vain damsel who's boarding the carriage
As though the world burned in a fiery marriage.

"I say, won't you sit? Do you care for tea? A lump of sugar or three?"
She sniffed and inspected the scenery passing by
Ignoring my manners with her blue-shadowed eyes.

"Where are you heading, madam, on such a summer's day?
Myself I'm heading to Banbury Cross, to sell these feigned goods
Perhaps at a loss. What say you?"

After a moment she deigned me a response
"The Ascot of Kiers-Chalcedony requests my company
His daughter is to be presented at the Villareigns Debu
Shells On A TuesdayBreaking dawn over a red-strewn coastline
Wreckage contains the ghosts of glory achieved
In defiance of a foreign invasion

A tattered standard still flies above a gutted ruin.
Black holes in the brick gape, drooling smoke
Like toothless mouths as pipes jut awkwardly.
Were there winners? Or only lesser evils?

Valiant men and women fought to stem the tide
but alas, nearly all were lost.
In the end there fell a desolate peace...
The peace of empty deserts which lie beneath the sun

Their vastness swallows sound, returning neither
Comfort nor nourishment...
Only a dread cessation of life which knows
Neither friend or foe...only dust.
Violets Are BlueViolets
In Springtime down
The dark forest
Road began in olden
Days reaching past the
Forget-me-nots and tulips
Trees with melancholance
In blossoms awakening slumber

Violets
Arranging seasons yielded
Papier-Mache heart blue
Courtesance lights displayed freely
Wandering hand-in-hand with my

Love beknighted
Thy Damascus blade now whetted thirst
For my love, my love
In Eden's courts and vales

Violets
Becoming to a maiden chained to
Beliefs that I, even I
Shall ne'er wait for thee.
CANDLESCalling out to You

Anxiously in a windswept sea

Neither cloak nor glowing ember

Diminishes the need in my heart

Let my cries reach Your ears

Embrace me with Your love, mercy, and grace

Savior of my soul, Jesus Christ!
