Softly, deftly
Night caressed me once again
I sat, drinking the ink from my pen.

Addict’s Prayer
I pray for clarity
I pray for hope
I pray for the desire to relinquish the dope
I can’t cope
And every time I try and put it down it screams out nope nope nope
The war on Terror’s going on inside my head
But the Terror’s me, me trying to kill me dead
Always leaving something unsaid

He picked up the pieces
Scattered shore to shore
Raven crying, nevermore
What ever for? He intonated
As heart in chest it undulated
Weeping willows, tree of sorrow
A brighter better new tomorrow

Silent sighs
That come in threes
I count them out
With shaky knees
Don’t fold
Don’t falter
Or try to alter
Still, the frigid cold
