Interruptions

Sitting, listening to voices;
harsh, calm, strange-
and silent.

Waiting for something
to happen-
For perhaps a miracle...

When this turbulent sea
of wasted breath
shall sink into peace.

Stillness will pervade...

But before that
there'll be that ominous,
almost disconcerting calm...

Gave me shivers. I read this whilst looking out at a blood red moon, hanging low in the sky. Great.

It was while that i waited
for mircale to happen
but they happen when you try to make things happen I guess

Thank you for visiting my blog...
So troubled thoughts turn then to calm reflexion/ And in a pool it gathers for all to come and see themselves...

Very nice, powerful poem. Enjoyed it much and will be back for more!

Black water In the lake today Smells like death

Midnight Musings

I sit and flip some Pages in vain— Outside, some rabid Dogs bark in the rain. Alone I sit and make sense of printed, bland nonsense. The room is numb— I hear nothing Except fear’s thumps: The clock’s ticking. An errant breeze Whips the glass panes Raw as I grease My pens and pains… My bones creak: An evanescent fear Awakes and speaks… Light is near— The last line is clear! Wish you all a very happy and prosperous 2006! H A P P Y N E W Y E A R !!
