secret destroyer

Courage is the elixir of life,
it's fueled by ignorance,
there's no safety net to catch you,
there is no recompense.

Fight for your life,
fight for your brain,
fight for anything you love.

Learn from your mistakes my friend,
learn to fight for that for which you love.

For if you don't,
you poor dumb fool.
You'll live your life a slave.

And if you ever find your freedom,
ther'll be nothing left for you to save.

My best friend

Smarter than most good men.
You left me,
when you should have,
you left me at the end.

The love that, I gave you Fred,
ain't a love that you get for free,

Oh Fred, my dog, you were the one who always stuck by me.

I got you at two weeks,
when you could barely speak.
I raised you
when you could,
not top the grass that I could see.

Oh Fred I'll tell you right now,
and unashamedly,
I loved you then,
as I love you now,
an eternal friend
that will never leave.

Your thoughts,
and your prayers,
I may suspect
but I'll never know.

Your secret,
desires,
I let you run
and there you'd go.

When you were
running with a pack,
you truly were called free.

But after you came back,
you truly were with me ...

What a good dog,
what a damned fine dog.
the likes' which we'll not see.

When I watch all my
friends wink out
you'll still be
here with me.

future rumblings

And I felt the mighty tome of God reverberate through the walls,
Fire, Brimstone,
not so much,
more a slowing down and stopping,
with possible destruction having already come.
Infinity always whispers after all. 

The end was a disappointment,
as was it's preceding footsteps.
First promise, then struggle, despair,
success, ecstasy, sorrow, numbness and
the end.

The words reverberated in my mind and
they said "you are weak, repent."
I knew, repentance would never come anyhow.
Repentance is surrender sure as suicide.
