The lighthouse beckons...

20 more, a few less to go...

A harbinger of doom

Never Fail

I will never fail

Failing you, I fail myself

I will not fail you

Secrets and Lies

This dam of secrets,

Will burst like overripe fruit;

All will tumble out

    Worst Enemy

The sad, awful truth

We are our own worst enemies

Without knowing it

Song of Songs

Let me sing a song;

A lyrical rhapsody

Of your true beauty

  Lighthouse and Ships

She is a perfect drug

Her sweet lips are a lighthouse

And his are a ship

Trap

Ensnared in a trap

A trap quite like no other

Can no one free me?

Word Cloud

We hide timidly

Behind clouds of thick words that

Say far more than we can

Hand in Glove

Fold your arms slowly

I don’t want you to hold me

You’ll fit like a glove

Unglued

Stuck tight forever

And she’ll never come unglued

From my deep, dark mind

Crazy Tuesday

She don’t know why and

She never had a reason

But she’ll make you cry

   Who am I?

The man with the plan

My parents named me warrior

They call me Verbal

      Rouge

The skyline is bright

And the streets call out our names

To paint the town red

 Gamma Ray

Never fear summer

Even when the heat wave hits

Like a Gamma Ray

          Database Corrupted (7 5 7)

Dreams: A window to the soul

A truth revealed, my

Database is corrupted

Rules of the game

Five syllables first,
seven in second stanza,
back to five again

   Paradox

Listen to silence

As it drowns out your voice

Life’s great paradox

  Might

Which is mightiest?

Sharp sword, even sharper pen?

Or a nagging wife?

  Pass the popcorn

The troubles of life

A never ending movie

Alas! No popcorn

       Shadows

The passing shadows

That blanket my eyes were

Made for you to stare

Dante

Raging infernos

In which mankind is consumed

Who will save our souls?

I wish I could always, be yours,

Lloyd Webber
