Dictates priority.

The short end
Of prosperity.

All countdowns at zero —
Can danger compel
Those who no longer care?

Interposing fiction

Reflections of reflections
Interposing fiction and reality —
Art for art's sake
Projecting moments yet to be.

Three Dimensions

What if time,
Like space,
Has three dimensions,
Of which we've learned
But one?

Just a clock striking zero,
A calendar striking one.

Mere hope that we're done
Making poor decisions
From this point on.

The Last Step

They may walk us
Up to the threshold,
The last step we take
Alone.

Grown-up Games

Children playing grown-up games,
Rushed through youth, taking places,
Making choices, casting votes
On matters already decided.

Killer Saints

By many hands,
In one name,
Deputized killer saints —
Thy kingdoms come
To me.

Breaths Away

Breaths away from heaven,
We feel closer
To the distant stars.

Fear not the dark,
Fear the unseen.
Fear not the silence —
Fear the whisper.

Naked Nerves

Chaos, endless subtlety
Intersects the radical —
Raw emotions, naked nerves,
Warring with the logical.

'Tis The Season

Heed those
Who lost the most,
For 'tis the season
To be merry.

Cannot feel.

Where the eager venture.

Emotional snipers.
Desperation landmines.

Find me in the trenches.

Letting Go

This feeling,
Contentment,
It's something I have
Never known —
Happiness is trust.
Happiness is letting go.

The world seems brighter
From the shadows.

Artistry may paint the world
To soothe even the strongest soul,
Ambition chisels mountains
Down to dust —
And yet, not all's about power.
