  • Thoughts at Lucca’s Coffeehouse

    May 8, 2001

    I wandered last night. Moving around through the desolate cities creates almost a false sense of refinery. For some reason each time I turn a corner and I’m greeted by hundreds of buildings I feel as though mankind as achieved something… yet it’s a strange paradox. The streets are ghostly on their own.

  • Spare Change

    May 6, 2001

    People walking down the street, saying everything is fine. They can see it coming, but they don’t have time. Everyone is moving-Hell prepares her gates- Entering eternity and finding it too late.

  • I’ve Given Up A Time Or Two Before

    January 9, 1999

    I’ve given up a time or two before, Half drowned by icy turmoil within. Emotions crest and break upon the shore, Drowning reason with their ever-present roar. I fight against the surge, but never win. I’ve given up a time or two before. A swell against the sand-the waves restore The smooth and untouched beauty... Read More
