For millions of years, “Old Dakota”
Just laid here for Kicks ‘neath the sun;
Till the Land was worth “DOLLAR AN ACRE”-
And the FARMERS burned “COWSHIPS” for fun.
Some said “GIVE IT BACK TO THE INDIANS!”
Tho the INDIANS did not care-a-damn-
As the WHITE MAN had killed off the buffalo-
There was [...]

While he pondered, NEARLY NAPPING,
SUDDENLY he heard a tapping-
Like a “B” girl lightly rapping-
Rapping on his chamber door-
While the moonlight climbed the curtain-
‘Tis the wind…. and nothing more!
Long into that darkness peering-
Ohh what was it he was fearing?
While he dreamed the dreams, no Mortal
Ever DARED to dream before!
So it was to still the beating
Of his [...]

L ingering in the corner,
of this desolate night.
Mindful of the darkness,
as my eyes lose their sight.
Clouds cover and storm is near.
Passion is high as my heart fears.
Anticipating.
In my mind debating.
Wondering if it may be,
if in me he will see,
what words cannot declare.
Pacing and tracing the lines
to his heart.
In his eyes I will fall,
let go [...]

Her heart pounding. Temples pulsing. She runs for fear of her life. A strange figure of darkness closing in on her. Running…. running….running. Smack! She topples to the ground in a heap. The strange figure behind her vanishes. Like it were never there. Gasping for breath she remains still. Not taking any chances of [...]

Darkness falls into a city
A city of silence and the whispers in your head echoes. Your mind plays tricks at you.Time doesn’t exist as you watch frozen stiff. The pale silver moon has transform to a blood crimson red. The sound of chains trailing over peddles break the silence slitting through the throat of the [...]

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

at times like this
when no one is to be found
i see you looking…
waiting so patiently
for me to smile.
at times like this
when no one seem to bother
about the life i’ve been living,
i see you with those eyes
searching for ways
to better understand
my silence…
my forced smile…
at times like this
when i despise the light
and being passionate
with the warmth the [...]

Shadows linger
In my midst
Darkness follows
In my dreams
I can’t escape
I cannot hide
Left to nothing
But to raven’s
Purposeful plight

When dreams dry up…
How long can grief persist, in the human mind?
Only till the dreams dry up in this earth!
I reckon the darkness, and the murk,
I reckon the light and the radiance, as well.
But who can comprehend the shape of
A shadow which intervene in its midst,
And changes its character?
Why is my mind holding an umbrella [...]

It was early in December,
They had gathered out of fear,
As the bombs were falling ’round them, cries of terror filled each ear,
And they saw the buildings falling,
And they watched the people die,
And they heard the women screaming and they saw the children cry.
As the skies were turning hazy,
With the smoke of blast and fire,
They were [...]
