THE FALL (A Poem)



In my darkest hour I ignored the sirens, and transcended reality into a deep sleep. I fell into darkness, that twisted my soul. I saw my face trying to escape my gaze. I fell and had to crawl. The clumsiness of my life overwhelmed the spiral speed of decent, and my mind crashed into oblivion. …

Stone Wall (A Poem)



Hard and impenetrable, too tall to look over, too long to go around, too narrow to walk on. Barren and cold, worn and old, standing against winds enduring the seasons. A stone wall creates a boundary, to separate people and plots of land, and is a means of defense. A stone wall is an illusion …

A Broken Heart



A heart can break forever, or may not break at all. A heart can break from grief, or from betrayal. A heart can break from hate. A heart can break from pain. The pain can be forgotten, or remembered in a frame. L.A. Steel Share

A Tall Ship Tied To A Dock

A tall ship tied to a dock is ready to go to sea, but is not free. Held back and restrained to prevent it from drifting, by a weak rope of resistance. Vulnerable to strong winds, that dash it against the dock until the winds stop. A giant of shipbuilders’ ingenuity, and Leviathan of the …

Following The Wrong Dream (A Poem About The Shutdown)

Americans are following the wrong dream. It is not a happy dream. It is a bad dream, that will lead us to ruin. The American Dream is not happy anymore, because it is unattainable to many more than before. It is now only attainable if you are a bankster, illegal alien or corporate whore. Honest …

The Inevitable

The Inevitable is: The anger of betrayal. A baby cries. A politician lies. Doors are opened. Windows are closed. It rains in spring and winter is cold. Love abandons hate. A stone is hard. A fire is hot. A feather is soft. Loneliness is lonely. Laughter brings joy. All die who are born. Souls transcend …

WHAT I HATE (A Poem)

Hate for politicians is a common human trait. Patriots hate traitors. Traitors hate patriots. There is nothing real in the political game, other than the death and destruction of war. There is treasure and power to be won and lost but nothing of value to be gained. There is a point I want to make, …

Running Brook

A running brook continues its course in daylight, moonlight and darkness. The cold water rushes over stones as they embed or roll with the current. The brook sings the songs of the earth, songs of anger, passion, love and compassion. Heavy rain or drought effect its depth and speed, as it moves onward through the …

A Tall Ship In A Storm

8/7/13 As a tall ship in a storm America braces for a revolution. Our Captain is a madman, the harsh winds of oppression rock the tall ship on the violent sea. Before the ship capsizes we must seize the helm and ride out the storm. Our sails maybe torn, but our masts are not broken. …

Summer Storm (A Poem)

    The skies turned green. The humidity increased. My arms became sticky against the leather chair. The wet cotton of my shirt clung against my skin. The fan blew moist air. A cool shower relieved me for a moment, until I wiped off and began to sweat again. I remembered the feeling of cold winter winds, and cool autumn breezes, …
