Hear the Night (Night quakes)

Hear the night (night quakes)

Here the night comes through the trees
Hear the night blows through the trees
,
Gently knocking on a window pane
Rustling bedroom curtains
Caressing bedroom linen
,
Tiny little quakes
Dreams invite the night
,
The sun won’t need to know
No one needs to know
‘Till the dawn chases
Night back passed the trees

Walking, six feet tall and rising

Walking Lascaux

Walking Lascaux
.
.
.

six feet tall and rising

I am so much taller than my past
I’m so taller than the shadows it casts
,
many have had  opinions on what I should be
many have an opinions on whats right for me.
,
I am so much taller than my past
I’m so taller than the shadows it casts.
because I follow my own opinions
of whom I am to be.

Leap Frog

I’ll hoist you over

my tall shoulders

that you look over

when your a step behind.

,

levitate

reverberate

above the leafy canopy

before gravity

pulls down gingerly

now I’m right behind

,

as I look over

your tall shoulders

you host me over

we do it over and over

as two tumble long.

young lifes legacy (unfinished)

Pink ribbon.png

cruel beast with silent horns

you’ve ripped and you’ve torn

In a short life forsaken

a young life you’ve taken

everything you’ve taken

,

You can’t take the inspiring

life affirming, caring, smiling

impacting memories

carried by so many

you can’t take her legacy

you can’t take our memories.

,

Cruel beast of darken mass

you cant move as fast

as a young life’s impact

so stay in the past

and we’ll keep our memories

and she will keep her legacy.

.
for our friend, Denise.

cyborg and superman

Cyborg and Superman

went to battle again

,

Superman says to Cyborg

“You stand in my way”

Cyborg justs laughs

and this what he says:

,

“My feet have grown wheels

My voice bellows broadband waves

My sword splits atoms

my chemicals ease my pain

my skin is an armor alloy

my oil flows through my veins”

,

Superman turns to Cyborg

and then he begins:

“I am potential

I have no skin

I am kinetic

I move with the wind

I’ve already overthrown

the tyranny within.”

Cyborg and Superman

went to battle again

The me-lee is was over

as fast as it began

,

When Cyborg discovered

he buried Superman deep within

beneath Cyborg’s Hybrid halo

Tyranny restored again.

Order was restored again.

Until Cyborg and Superman

go to battle again

firefly friends… (from a child)

fireflies

in my glass jar

you do not `luminate

for me no more.

,

we’ve been friends

of the lonely night

you speckled the dark

with wondrous light

,

I kept you safe

in my glass jar

from the lonely night

So I may wish

upon tiny stars

,

fireflies

my little stars

why won’t you `luminate

for your friend no more.
