The broken mirror
Reflects Dad; Rejoin the shards
And now I see me.

Haiku #1, 4/22/08
Infernal hairstyle -
The friction of running makes
My hair catch fire!

Haiku, 4/21/08
Right before daybreak
Enjoy the stillness, for soon
The world will wake up.

Haiku, 4/20/08
Girls on bicycles
And jump ropes remind me of
Nineteen eighty-nine

Mirror
Could you be my mirror?
Do you look like my future,
A vision of health and stable ground
And the hope I’ve finally found?
Have could someone worlds apart
Reflect me so accurately,
As if the face I see were my own?
If so,
Fellow,
Tell
Me how you walked through
Hell.

Gifts
Gifts won’t erase the pain -
It’s plain
To see
That you don’t love me;
You only love your gifts. Continue reading
Tibet
Mountains blanketed in mist,
The stillness of another world;
A dazzling gem, clutched in tight fingers;
A sublime poetic line,
Poised and shivering underneath
An eraser thumb;
And a land’s native son
Can never go home again.

Days
Weeks
Months
Years
Swimming towards forever
In a sea of black hair dye
Looking for the fountain of youth
But the truth
Is that I am racing towards that age
As fast as I fill an empty page

Note: This was actually my fortieth poem for the month of April. 
Sex
Can you dissect
Sex?
For some a reflex,
For some it reflects
The love and longing
That abide inside
Those swept away in the tide
Of another person’s universe. Continue reading
Christian Gothic
This poem was inspired by the sight of a very awesome site, ChristianGoth.com. Enjoy.

Untold,
In my soul -
A thousand Hallelujahs.
I walk the catacombs
Where darkness roams
To find my way to the light,
Though I live at the edge of night,
Bearing torches in my heart
For the lonely
The forgotten
Begotten
Of God and Man. Continue reading
