Ghost Of Your Past
the sky is an emotional crutch,
for one often seeks within it
what cannot be found beneath it ......
tonight may be the night that
the answers you seek come .......
the sky will make its case ......
suddenly, a voice is heard ......
it seems to be familiar, yet
a bit strange in its manner ......
the voice is your own, soft
at first and becoming louder,
making its presence known ......
haunting were past words said,
and pictures of deeds done,
that are stored in your book of life.
as your book opens in plain view,
the answer you seek is within it ......
the ghost of your past has returned ......
the voice from the sky is quiet,
for it has delivered your answer ......
gone is the Ghost Of Your Past ......

Ghastly Is The Walk
It all begins somewhere,
defining where one has been
and defines where one goes.
Direction comes
by toe or heel in
movement with distinction.
Pace is determined
by the width of the step
marked by footprints left
What lies beneath the
footprints daring to tread upon
secrets we do not know?
said secrets dwell in the
untold pasts or unknown futures
concealing the demons within
wrongfully awakened demons
will make their presence known
and once they are known
How Ghastly Is This Walk

When The Black Bird Sings
Here is this black bird, the
overseer of both day and night
discerning both truth and fantasy
within the realms of reality
A blanket of darkness falls
as daylight is consumed by night
It roams about stealthily
with the power to transform dark into light
Within its power and grace,
Mankind's indignations surface
Tongues reveal the reality and despair
that breed results are often unwanted
And The Black Bird Sings!
Sing, Oh Black Bird of day and night
Your powerful wings spread
articulate words needing to be heard
Sing, Oh Black Bird
Stay steadfast at the crossroad
where truth and fantasy align
] Then your song will truly be heard
Time always comes and takes it place and once again, The Black Bird Sings
