  • Poem – Strings

    Moments I feel disconnected from the activity surrounding and swallowing me. The words heavy, actions sharp, the light too much to see. I want to live peacefully and cast a wide net but the fields are overgrown, the boulders too large, the obstacles too many. Those we do not know beyond what we are fed…

  • Poem – Mountain King

    Mountain shadows swallow the valley. A single path cuts through dense and overgrown vegetation beneath the ancient forest and persistent shining moon. Millions of years have passed unnoticed to the solitary figure walking alone down this path. He has not rested, has has not slept. He has met no other being. He is the mountain…

  • Poem – One

    The world is large, sphere-like and hurtling through space. Life began in primordial forms billions of years before giving the life we have through complex processes.

Nothing moved except the light and my physical self operating on instinct, synchorized with the mind through a fragile…

  • Poem – The Sky is Burning

    The black sky of antiquity replaced by what we do not know what we fear. In the depths of thought do we remember the ancient rituals and sacrifice at the base of each tree, at the shoreline, at our fingertips? The burning sky approaches from the south, consuming what we do not know what we…

  • Poem – Goddess of Light

    This poem is one of 12 or so from a series I wrote about and based in Egypt.  I will post a few of these over time, and I hope to complete the series at some point in this lifetime. Goddess of Light Pearl white columns, stories tall Marble pathway at my feet Slight breeze,…

  • At Sea

    The midnight sun greets each sailor lost at sea, searching for a port sheltered from the wind-swept ocean off the coast of Brimnes. A swell battering against the hull… Knock… Knock… Ancient trees, glued together, forming the skeleton of my vessel cracking and swaying its moan echoes across the ocean the lighted gateway shimmers across…
