Burning so Brightly
Intense Blinding Light Torrid
Passion, Grace and Fire

Effluvium(Only the Mad Dance On….)
Trancelike,
the shadows danced slowly
in wild drunken circles
as leagues of dented saints
petition in pained voices
in pained contrapuntal descant
martyred hearts petitioned
to heedless deities
of places both far and imagined
lynxed couriers
only in waiting
of delivering
coded messages
ever enigmatic and blurred
anathemic languages of war
while phalanxed regiments
hidden in faint gloamings
stalemated in waitings
the sides frozen
in perpetuity
as centuries accumulate

Entreaty(Daring to Approach Ubiquity)
Imploring to ears impartial
bleeting the sounds
heterogeneous cacophony
endless the wailings
buried in languid despondencies
seemingly afar
of ethereal quality
presences, places
where varied voices and tongues
calling out
amidst the torturous throes
desperations, pains,
places, where time dared to stand still
while every last minute hung in the balance
seemingly with unflinching
and impervious purpose
still unrequited blindness in dedication
never once asking why
eventually the balance broken
felled by rows of faulted requitals
and hidden dearths
inner darknesses excised
no longer capable in their slumbered hidings
shackled down with chains of guilt
with weight unmeasurable
most self damning miseries
emptiness, lonliness, isolation of guilt
a calling out
seeking…searching
attempting to scratch a modicum of sense
out of circumstances
long and lost
where the reality of it’s passing quickness
tepid their hearts and insipid the intent of the hearts
