He sits atop the post His pets by his side Waiting for the night To start his prowl Two noses Two tails His two loyal companions Waiting for the prowl The sun in the sky Dropping quickly Gives a final wink to the watchman The night has begun With only half a day To do his mission He starts his prowl His hounds at his side Crossing the bridge Over the ice river crevice He walks Always alert always searching Sword drawn he approaches the intruder 2 parries and a thrust Another dead body on his record Resheathed he walks on His next obstacle Not one but thirty Still sheathed he attacks Leaving only a trail of carnage

As the cat stalked the defenseless pidgeon I thought I thought of the game of cat and mouse I thought of me and my brother I thought of mypast As the pouring rain started I wondered I wondered how it could be different I wondered how the world has changed I wondered what he would have been like I got soaked but I didn't care In the whole scheme of things it didn't matter With all these oblivious people Nothing mattered anymore Not since him Brrrrrrrrringgggggg… school is out School was out for me and him a long time ago In and out in and out thats school for me Out thats school for him They are oblivious there too And i can'

Footsteps Leading away Into the distance The last time I saw your face Crystal Clear I thought About you For the last time Then carelessly I turned around And walked away Leaving my footsteps To the distance

Sitting on a sidewalk watching the sun in the sky. Sitting on a sidewalk watching the stars fly by. Always on that sidewalk as the years pass away. Still on the side walk even on this very day. Watching the years with nobody there. Sharing his tears with the empty air. One on one with nature with no one to interfere. One on one with nature with nobody here. --------------------------------------

The winds blow down the street, A lone leaf Nothing more Nothing less A man walks by He shuffles his pace uncomfortably At the site of the body It's not alive It's not dead He still hasn't noticed The wind, the person, and the dog He is Oblivious to one leaf Oblivious to all He is there Yet he is not The dog smells him He reeks of Death Yet he isn't dead The dog sniffs him again This time a sent of life Yet he isn't alive He is just there Oblivious for now Yet how long had it been Time has no meaning At least not to him There is no time Everyone knows how long No one talks Where he lies is eroded There is no

I looked out Through the window Rain was sliding Down the glass Lightning spiked above Again I saw it Staying there The round blackness The lake It was waiting For when I Would meet my fate It was still raining The light from my fire Reflected against the glass And flickered strangely A wolf howled In the distance Followed by A crack of thunder I knew today Was the day I walked to the door Casually taking my jacket Off the hook Knowing I would get wet anyway I entered the blackness outside This time like no other I was on a mission I turned around I looked in Through the window The fire was still flickering

We layed there Side by side On that old hill Over the lake We'd stare up there for hours At the pinpricks of light They sparkle like the Reflections of your eyes I could lie here forever Just you and me And the stars Underneath the blanket of night Seperated from the world Up in the heavens Having the cosmic winds Bring us along We'd hold hands Laying on the sky Looking down on the earth Being away from home We'd drift away Where no one has been The colors of a lifetime Would lay before us I could lie here forever Just you and me And the stars Underneath the blanket of night

I stood there Looking over the crevice The long spiral stair Eased its way gently downwards But i knew It wasn't that easy That was the way To the blackness beyond Where no flowers bloom And no light shines Where a red man stands before the gates Ready to becon you into His realm My realm

Haiku Sun #1 The rising sun sets The morning brings on the dawn The setting moon rose Haiku Sun #2 Yellow flames erupt Burning the air around it The air doesn't care Haiku Sun #3 Moonshine against light Still fighting over the sky The sun and the moon

The onslaught of the sea Moves inland as the ocean grows rough The trickle-trickle of a nearby river Changes to a gushing flow Like a rampant bull The winds are getting boisterous too It whistles down through the canyon Birds are throw about mercilessly The air is tense A grumble comes from the ground below Tremors like a stampede shake the earth The world is restless A rustle comes from the heart of the woods Followed by more like thunder The trees have awoken
