Lost
How sad to die
for those who know
of no heaven
dressed in their finest
with no place to go
reminding six feet under
forever
How can one rest
in so much darkness?
Skin and bones will cease
but the soul will roam
inside the earth searching
for closure
looking for a final resting place
but there will be no end
to its journey
Even the devil has a place
to dwell, eternally in hell
but this poor earthly soul
will never know eternity
How sad and torturous it is
to be a fugitive all your life
all your death

where I am lonely and stranded,
and my shouting is demanded.
Help rescue

no one look and care but
Phoenix, mid-August
Newly broke, brand new in town:
Maybe I'll find work here,
Or at least look around.
My green hatchback,
