Double Illusion Delusion While working on this photo I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me. It appeared to be a double exposure, but on closer it was not, just an optical illusion.

Elusive Delusive There’s a quota I must reach A contract I can’t breach A lesson I must teach. There is no time to waste I must make haste I cannot be disgraced. There is so much I must prepare Of falling in despair Of failure I must beware. Sometimes I do feel so alone How sad I have grown Reaching for that elusive crown.

I Miss You . . As I sit in my quietude, Sipping coffee bereft of heat, Dreaming dreams bereft of sleep, Visions of my mother come to me. My heart smiles at first, But soon saddens at my loss. The years pass but the memories never will. . I Miss You Mamma ❤️

Here I Stand * So here I stand One foot close to the edge The other digging in My hands clenched in fists My breath in rapid bursts I look straight ahead Through the pouring rain and sleet My vision poor but focused  My mouth opens and shuts But a whisper is all that comes  In the distance lightning flashes  Followed soon by thunder For a moment u appear  A silhouette deformed of shape And just as easily vanishes I feel my heart pounding in my head  Remember the words u had said The scream contained in my lungs  The cold chill in my heart The weakness in my legs Where is the sun I longed for  The warmth u promised me  Warm winds to brush my hair And blow away my fears Why do I stand here all alone Once again the lightning crashes  But you are not there the thunder hides my scream  the rain drowns my cry You left me here alone to die    * December  07  2010 . . .

Point Of Focus . Your point of focus Should always be On the NOW. Not in the past That's come and gone, Not in the future That can't be certain, But in the present That is constantly evolving. . . . .

Arachnids Lament * While you slumber and dream In your secured abode I find the unguarded crevices Left and forgotten corners And make them my home. * In the darkness and silence Unseen and unheard With skill and speed I make the nooks and crannies My castle and my dungeon. * While you lay there unaware I protect you and care Those annoying beasts That fly, crawl and bite I capture and devour totally out of sight. * Yet little recognition do I receive Oh no, instead you attack While resting from my work With instruments so fierce And poisons so deadly * Do you not recognize me ? Are we not allies in this war ? I know and respect you And keep my distance as well I have no wish to frighten. * And yes you may well say That I have not inherited The beauty of a butterfly But I build with unparalleled skills And work silently to protect. * So please next time we meet Do not rush to stamp me out Do not scream and screech As if a demon you have seen Let me be and walk away. * Let me live so I may serve The purpose I was given Let’s instead work together And share the space For the better! * November 19 2014 . . . . .

Our Rhythmic Hearts * Let’s sit by the bustling harbor And watch the ferries come in. Breath in the sea air, While the seagulls squawk and flutter without a care. * I’ll put my arms around you tightly We won’t say a word at all Just listen to our rhythmic hearts And just respire quietly. * 05 July 2014 . . . . .
