Circuitous



Decadent

Mankind marches on-
Fools trapped in a spiral of
Decadence and death
Round and round in perpetuity

The Tuskegee Airmen – High Flyers

Red Tails



They fought bravely for a country that hated, feared and despised them. After giving their all and making in some cases, the ultimate sacrifice, they returned to Lynching, Jim Crow and outright hatred. Their feats of bravery put lie to the notion that African-Americans did not have what it took to be air force pilots. Their list of accomplishments as a group and individually is long and storied, and I hope they are never forgotten.

Prickly



The Fruits of Labor

A short life filled with
Fire, fury and thunder
That leaves us fruitless
Our just desserts

Pretty poison



A touch of Curare 

The dark world we love
Aches for a splash of the sun
To light our souls
drink it in deep
