life seems to clamors for the horror,

the bitterness, and the tragedy.

In the Darkest of Times,

life seems to rally for death,

seek apathy of the Host, deny the will of the

“other,” and deny the harmony of love.

In the Darkest of Times,

the dawning of the day never

comes, the hopeful seem to surrender,

and apathy sends the death nail of Liberty, of

happiness, and of freedom.

In the Darkest of times, the blackest of hearts seem to

rule, and the faithful fall away form the

center, and extremism becomes the rule, instead of

the exception.

In the Darkest of times, the birth of dissent

simmers, embers of rebellion begin to

glow, and the light of hope is revealed.

In a dark foreboding place

Held deep within

A place I dare not look

Fearing it may reflect

A stillness,

An emotion,

A truth to harsh for me to

Realize.

So avoidance is my key

I run,

Shrink away

Not understanding…

But it persists,

Challenging and

Stalking me;

And, in the end the comes

Only what I feared the most

Was myself and the quest for life.

Wildfire Part II

Walking gracefylly like a deer,
Her legs have entranced me
Her eyes have overpowered me;
Her inner strength, her beauty
Have me bursting inside.
This is more than a craving;
her independence has captured my heart.
Be still my heart,
Be still; or, I might lose all my will
I ask myself, "Can this be it? Or is it an
affect of a course, a leftover buzz, from the Spring of my Life?"

Halena

The Goddess of Laughter,
Her warming smile brings joy to those all around
Seek her comfort,
Seek her love for the Goddess Halena
brings forth the chivalry of men.

A Friend

A friend once said to me, "Be cautious for you do not know where it will end, be cautious for you might get what you want."

Noting to myself that life can be joyous if taken with a spoonful of vinegar at the
bend,

I heeded his advices, and what did I find?

Nothing but truth, my friend, nothing but the truth!

The Change

Stepping forward,
Looking outwardly from within,
I see many opportunities to be gain
Patiently, stalkingly, ever so deligent
The many aspiration I seek are at hand--
Not unlike the caterpillar the transformation
into the butterfly is the signal of a new
beginning,
The change of life,
complete and fresh.
