Poem #1
When we are alone together,
worldly wonders weep.
How painfully beautiful
our love could have been
if we had harvested happiness
instead of adorning asinine anger.
We are now the walking dead,
and in the dark light of eternity,
the sweet sorrow of starry shadows
will never let us come home.
The Earth eliminates elucidating
emotion; we are nothing but
sedated, superficial stardust.

Poem #2 Jeremiah
A pillar of the community
his faith kept him true
while his unfaithfulness
made him falsely true
in the eyes of his wife and lover.

Poem #3
succinctly spoken, she seems sure
in her soft scorn. scrutinizing her
scruples as subtle as it was seemed
silly at first, but October’s dark light
reminds you of the walking dead
that will soon shower the streets
with dread. you're reminded of
the vibrant dullness of trees,
the brightness of the night sky,
the hope behind the gloom
of her cackle. she sports a
sweeper and soars
into the sky.

Poem #4 Her Continuous Extinction
Catered emotions
cascade
into a clean canvas,
while she
tries to paint
herself the perfect
portrait
under a
melancholy Moon
that contained
his light.
Phantoms float freely
seeking shadows
that shed darkness
to show off
their hidden sheen,
among their
crowd,
she shares
sips of cold water
with passing by
strangers.
She sisters
dim stars,
and befriends
languid
loneliness.
She’s
just
a
homeless
soul
in
Utopia.
