The Poetry Page
This section is dedicated to one of the several art forms that I love: the written word. All of the poems that appear on this page are original pieces done by your's truly. If you feel the need to quote me on anything then that's fine just as long as I get some recognition for it. Otherwise, if you want to use a full poem, please email me for my permission.
So, sit back and relax! Hope you like what's in store for you.
Faster From Perception

Murkiness of nothingness,
Dreams drearily dreamt.
Forms cast their shadows
Among the memories
that cloud my mind.
Falling faster from perception...
            There you are...
                        So far away....
                             I reach to you....
For answers to the questions
Yet I never get the reply.
I scream out your name
to help me from my darkness.
You dissipate into the atmosphere.
              For why have you left?
                        Left me in the shade...
I alone am the one
To destroy everything I own.
No riches to retrieve,
I pass on my knowledge
                            of nothingness...
As I pass into the dark....
      And I awake.
Child of the Darkness

Sweep over the land
with your trancing step.
Sneak a little closer.
Let me get a glimpse
of the other side of you...
Come to me now                      
And stay near.               
Let me hold you
In my arms
And kiss your lovely neck.

Kiss of death is placed,
Drink of life embraced.
Take me into you
As I have done with yours...

I AM NOW YOUR MAKER. 

Breath me in,                      
Suck it down,              
DIE and be reborn  
unto me.
Games of Hazard

Wipe the perspiration from the brow
with an uneasy stare.
I stand before the jury
With my hands up in the air.
"Have pity on the poor soul that I am.
I have juggled a life too many and lost."

"The hand I was dealt
proved fatal and ill-taken.
A game of hazard I took up
but my habit was not shaken.
         The Ace of diamonds falls
                               upon a silent floor
as the pistol cocks
            in an ill-mannered fashion.
Two bullets left the chamber that night.
     One intended,
              not provoked.
The other was crisp in staleness
That hung over head,
         Cut through the flesh
As the fiend cried out.                          And now lies...
                   dead...
Burned

The heat from this lamp
That lights this very page
is burning me with accusations
that lie inside the pain.
Fingertip
upon the bulb,
I recoil from the sudden sting.
Trying to cool it on my wet tongue...

NO USE.                  
                
The fire still
rolls within.
The memory is lingering
as my palm hovers over yet again.
Revisiting the source 
of the mostly forgotten pain.

*gasp*                    
               
Shaking it off is
still not worth the effort.
WHAT WAS I THINKING?!       
That it'd be like satin upon the skin...
So soft, smooth, and inviting?
I guess I was just dazed and confused....
Silly me.
