Sunlight
sensing acceptace
evil walks in the daylight
no longer afraid
–
sunlight-
insects scatter
from prying eyes

Reckoning
staring at myself-
the bottom of a shot glass
looking back at me
–
oasis-
an empty carcass
in the sand
Hung
staring unfocused-
bloodshot sky barely noticed
through these bleary eyes
–
cottonmouth-
a morning dove
splits my skull
Battle
curling up in pain
the taste of salt on my lips
from licking my wounds
–
echoes-
broken antlers on
the forest floor
Lost
years of wasted time
of opportunities lost
and then you were gone
–
ancient water-
black scales sink
beneath the surface
Regret
every single day
regrettable decisions
I can’t seem to stop
–
waiting in vain-
a puddle
of streetlight
Early
autumn mornings spent
polishing the temple bells
as the sun rises
–
robins-
footprints in
the morning dew
Trust
full of suspicions-
in our bed looking at you
lying beside me
–
crevasse-
a broken trust
far from healing
Quiet
a prick and a push-
quelling my inner deamons
for just a moment
–
thunder-
reveling in
the sudden silence
Ruin
violent currents
slake their thirst with sailor’s lives
by the gates of hell
–
jagged ice-
ancient wrecks
litter the narrows
