A Mess of Words Feb 2014
Her laughter has

worked its way

in between my heartbeats
A Mess of Words Oct 2013
the empty tree branches

reach out for the moon

as miserly fingers

straining for a doubloon

Everything’s a number now
Every year and date
Counting them on my fingertips
Wondering how long I must wait

Please rate your experience
On a scale from one to ten
Another day has ticked away
The clock’s reset again

And money slips in slowly
In increments so small
While bills with higher numbers
Make me wonder if I got paid at all

Everything’s a number
Except for you or me
See, we’ve got a breath within us
That’s more than binary

What am I doing with my life?
     Looking through my past
     And all these little things
     The error of my ways
          What are you looking for?

The only one who didn't fold:

A worthy brother
Upon golden sands
The soul of a warrior
Like nobody else
Each line is a title from another work of art, i just lined them up.  Thoughts appreciated.

I wait beneath a marbled sky
where darkened clouds linger high
Ready to relinquish rain
to this dull and dusty plain
One more day here will I chance
but I will dream in dreams of France

— The End —
