Underneath the pain
In a Country by your side
Underneath the suffering
That so many sleep to hide
Underneath the tremors
There’s no Mother for a child
Underneath the rubble
Is what’s left of broken smiles
Underneath the bridge
Is a man without a home
Underneath the moonlight
There’s a child who cries alone
Underneath the remnants
Children played without a fear
Underneath the blanket
An infant clings to life [...]

(1)Young Tom visited his great aunt, until he was ten years old,
And soon after his next birthday, her old mansion would be sold,
Since she died, and he would miss them both, as nine years changed the date.
He completed school, did two years work, and started college late.
(2)At the end of his first Uni year, he [...]

Professor Brint was 30, when he built his best invention:
The Chrono-Car, and used it to explore the fourth dimension.
He revved it up, and traveled back through 23 years’ history,
And then the engine used up all supplies of his magistery.
Now trapped back when his childhood self had only just turned seven,
And frequently thrown out those brown [...]

The Clairvoyant
Little feet hastened on the grass,
To the call of a mother,
She was her mother since those days,
Days of gory crimes the two were unaware,
But there was one man, who knew it all,
He dreamt of white flashes and red rivers,
Suffered a saga of bloodshed,
Drugged himself to forget her,
Forgot her address to protect her.
On [...]

I hear a heartfelt sob deep within my soul,
It touches me in such a way, yet for why I don’t really know
I pondered on the reason why this sound has come to me
As I think of all that had past and worry of what is to be
My mother the earth weeps for all that has [...]

Oh my children can’t you see what you have done
When will you see the path you are on will destroy everyone
Have you closed your eyes to all around you
Do you not see that we will loose not only the past and present but the future too
The earth cries out to me with all the suffering [...]

It was a cld fall day-
In early morning-
Even the far off clouds
Seemed half asleep-
The endless plains reach on-
Nor know the dawning-
WORDS ON THE SKY-
WHO TAKES CARE OF MY SHEEP?
Who looks after the Fold?
Why did God MAKE THEM?
to seek for HOME, within
A heartless world?
The lonely wind blowns on–
Nor waits to answer
While winter comes-
With withered leaves underled-
Come [...]

When I was young, there was a song-”when I leave The World Behind”-
I’ll leave the sunshine, for the summer-
I’ll leave the tree tops, for the breeze,
I’ll leave the moon above, for those in love-
When I leave the world, behind!
I’ll leave the moonlight, for the dreamers,
I’ll leave the great ships for the seas-
And for the “Old [...]

THE DAY YOU WERE BORN,YOU WERE A STAR
LIKE SOMEONE ISOLATED IN A VACANT CAR
WHETHER YOU MAKE OR YOU MAR
OR YOU INITIATE A HEALTHY WAR
ALL THESE THINGS ARE WORTHLESS SO FAR
LEAVING ASIDE YOU AS THE SINGLE STAR
THE DAY YOU DIE,YOU ARE JUST BORN
YOU CAN BE KILLED,YOUR SPIRIT CAN’T BE TORN
SURROUNDED BY HYPOCRITE FRIENDS AND ENEMIES HYPOTHETICAL
MAKING [...]

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 [...]
