The Paradox,
Chained onto the mystery
Unravelling its links
For the dead end road
While foundation sinks
Who told my heart to beat
And once again I ask
Dreaming in the alchemy
Upending is this task
Pursued in rebel with lust
Bound by the agencies
Who commend in deceit
On vast inconsistencies
In forbidden sweetness
Long are we beaten
Awaiting but our destiny
Still sour crop is eaten
Dark water is swallowed
By a sheltered bold fox
In life he wallowed
To believe the paradox

The Paradox,
Chained onto the mystery
Unravelling its links
For the dead end road
While foundation sinks
Who told my heart to
Small, iridescent wings
beat their incessant rhythm
as they carry their wee burden
past the variegated colors
of the forest
Yesterday's Tomorrows:
-
The past holds
many hollow tomorrows,
deplete of everything ever put off.
The future
is full of empty
Funny Thing
Life is quite the funny thing
It intertwines like yarn and string
Ties us up in knots and bows
Quivers in enlightened
by Joseph King
Down a Hole.
Forked-tongued demon lurking in the id of my heart, do not tempt me.
Do not rage cultivating proof of both creation
