The Myth of Twos
Not long ago for no sure reason, in quiet, I felt completely lost Why I could not then and cannot now fathom any meaning here Arguing the genesis of this dark emotion or mayhap a future cost Frankly, it worried me, filled me with an unknown, unnamed fear Where everything I could devise, create, […]
Ad Perpetuam Memoriam
Some days it rains and some days the sun does shine Doesn’t really matter much when I make them mine Yet if I’m low, dreary rain may blind me to the truth Other days, though rain mocks me, I am hail and soothe My thoughts don’t turn the world, or my feelings seasons Both rain […]

What Need?
I heard a question most recently Which I must say puzzled me Seriously someone asked, you see For what do we have any need For tigers to walk among the trees? And while I pondered, I realized I could never, ever compromise So, seriously, I ask you now, why What need have tigers wandering […]
That Is Not It, That Is Not It At All

Some may not agree with me, so be warned. I feel impelled and qualified to write this for three reasons. First and weakest, I have a degree in film with […]
