IT TAUNTS ME




Horror taunts me.
It creeps closer.
I can feel it,
taste it.
It surrounds me.
I’m sealed in a coffin.
Dirt sinks me deeper.
A crack of light appears.
A peek at my tormentor.
A glimpse of hell.

HOTTER THAN HELL




Hotter than hell is their playground.
Beneath layers of rocks and dirt.
They wait for their day of salvation.
When they can ride in the storm.
They grow impatient for the invasion.
The end of life as we know it.
I can hear their cries blowing in the wind.
The whispers brought forth from below.
It’s time for us to gather ammunition.
Before our poor town is nothing at all.

Lost in a field of daisies


Lost in a field of daisies.
Falling between the stalks.
Covered by their leaves.
Pulled down by their roots.
Darkness buries me.
Dirt envelopes me.
Illusion becomes reality.
A nightmare becomes hell.
No way out for me.
Only the faces of daisies.
THE DEAD love their games.

WHO AM I?





Who am I?
Who was I?
A man.
A woman.
A doctor.
A soldier.
Maybe a murderer.
Does it matter?
Does it matter anymore?
We all end up the same.
Underground.
Buried.
But it is how we are
remembered
that matters.
Our memory lingers on.
Be remembered as a
doctor,
soldier,
or murderer.
It’s your choice.

THE FIRST SNOWSTORM


image

Snow covers the ground

with its white purity.

Everything is

whispered clean.

Sounds are muted.

Animals go into hiding.

A hush falls.

We’re able to take a deep breath,

step back,

and enjoy the beauty.

There’s no hurry.

Cars are buried.

Mass transit is shut down.

We have time for family

and snow ball fights.

Sleds sliding down

newly created hills.

Hot chocolate

in front of the fire.

Marshmallows roasting

on sticks.

I have my boots and gloves.

I’m ready!

MOONSTRUCK




moonstruck

Rising.
Moonstruck.
Building up.
Bearing down.
Beating the sand.
Arms of steel.
Thrashing.
Flowing closer.
Until all is buried.
Oasis is no more.

RIP






May The Dead rest in peace.
Way under the earth they may roam.
Far away from our shores.
As long as they find a new home.
