Wheelhouse
Snow covered tracks
Recede in time
Cold memories
Come to haunt my mind
Lost love once fueled
By blood and brine
And salty tears-
Both hers and mine
Now my recall
Runs true as rails
And heartache
Pierces ties
Like nails
I ride this train
Of thought
Seeking
Some temporal
Wheelhouse
To turn
A regretful
Wastrel's
Fate

Writers’ society
Welcome to the secret society
The society of writers
Where go all the rejected
The society of hiders
Welcome to our 3 AM session
Because we own the night
Welcome to the society of depression
Hope you don't miss your light
Welcome to our inspiration
Although it won't be easy to find
Welcome to the society of writers
Where no sadness is left behind
carried away
i want to melt
into a pane
of something delicate
like colored glass
stained with deep red
my heart will blend
into its boundaries
of gold and i ache
with empathy and
awareness i am pained
by the emanation of
blindness that surrounds
i understand the power
of desire yet
i am burdened by
the same kind of dark
my skeleton dances
within a circle
of transparent leaves
falling with my spirit
and rising with
solitude's strength
soak their clothing
in the moving blue river
and let them dry
with curt individuality
i long to finish
the growing despondency
but the perversity of all
keeps me enthralled
