Rhapsody
Harps like lights in the darkest corner of my heart Play for the voices of angels singing their love At the base of my mind, a symphony My feet waltzing to a glorious song heard only by me Light-headed, I stumble & trip over my feet This concert’s time marked by my heart’s beat Light hearted, an intoxicated smile crosses my face Song of my soul repeats at a faster pace With each chord, a grudging knot in my back loosens And each voice dances over bars of their own choosing My soul leaves my body, free as a bird It’s cage moving to some song that can’t be heard On Earth or in space, but still a lovely tune My soul moves on headed for the moon No time to look back and why should I? My heart’s music has provided a natural high And now unwound- my resting limbsMy thoughts all swirling, all Earthly light dimsIn my day dream state- with the bit of sense I makeThe song plays on for my achy soul’s sake

Now what?
I drank with deathSmoked with SacrilegeRun from rightRan with wrong
I have Praised with PainDanced with disappointmentHated hurtConcentrated on confusion
I have spent on sensationalismsnuck out with the serpentineI have felt for the Forgerand fought with fear
I have driven through deceitabated alcoholismsupported Satanand even poured one for passion
I have dissed desireand surrendered to slynessI have endured exasperationand sexed scorn
I have seduced sorrowsummoned suicideFished out the flippantand paid with Pity
I have looked lasciviousness square in the face!sang to sadness

punched pessimism Feared fatality
I gave to gloomI fed the fireI extinguished emptinessI understood unfairness
I have Pushed for peaceuppercut the undrivenI have gulped greedI have deceived depression
You see I Walked on Waywardnessand waived wisdomI laid my head on lust’s shoulderI was cradled by Coarseness
I have been hated by hatredjoined jealousyConsumed curiousnessSwallowed sinking ships
I labored for loveI loved for littleMissed malevolenceand baked for belligerence
Atop ascendancemy position is plainI have overcome the obstaclesSo I ask you Life NOW WHAT!
