one very cold night
six artists rowed out of sight
vowing to never write poems again
at least not for a certain woman
secretly each wished
with broken open heart
that he might hear from her
once touching foreign shore
you see this wily lass only has time
for men not from same countryside
little did they know as chilly wind blew
boats filled with depressed dudes is nothing new
rejection torn destination unknown
Scorpio risings’ torcher equals epic lore
so here I stand glad to stay back as only sane mind
good luck out there fellas no honey’s worth leaving Hewitt behind.
Day Gun
never not growing
older wiser stronger bolder
stubborn as all get out
hand me down picked lock
peace to those stuck on repeat
always forever I root for thee
won’t go backwards in time
wading through shrapnel roadside
cherished moments shared
only gravediggers dig up dead pairs
cardinal direction steady pointer
leader of artists past sojourn
reliably serving Truth
aligning with odd fellows
sobriety simple self love
ultimate rebellion won.
Day Gun
becoming tall cold tower
great view bed meant for two
with no body heat shared
brrr wind chill cuts through
a single green eyed jewel
waits sometimes patiently match
hard to know which comes first
grey beard or loving catch
spending most days working out
training old age stair climbing
hermits do so much more
than clever song and word rhyming
mostly battles fought in mind
amongst half ass gardening
shadow dragon only foe
all others not worth bothering.
Day Gun
trail breaker face wind-chill taste
never less alone when alone
years drift away tears freeze in place
hard lessons learned now your turn
so many times I break what binds
soul strengthening test we train for
man it’s more fun with women around
beautiful brilliance lights my fires
life is so strange rarely relate
hermit-hood grows wizard brows
dwindling friends old cycle ends
who refreshes the scene
homework complete cooking just me
meals less meaningful no company
visions steady stream talking out dreams
honey waiting on thee.
Day Gun
living lies self harms
ingesting untruth deforms
socializing actors drain
avoidance a committed dance with pain
use sniff test who’s in your pool
smells like piss swim somewhere new
whole aisle of diapers for adults
is it me or something terribly fucked
what are you building this time
is there drive to heal or just die
either way won’t be big shocker
Truth sides with those growing honor
titled next level whatcha saying
I see through all choosing faking
rare to find souls climbing ladder
most waste days worshipping matter.
Day Gun
healed and whole from the get go
then thrown to arrogant ignorance
this how we role bravest old souls
which family’s bullshit best serves us
spending ones’s life unpacking traumatized plight
please teach kids nature of realm
chance at free will temptation test mill
tiny fraction survive self made hell
don’t fear fainting hearts love’s penetrating darts
many often choose learning discernment
never destiny pain result going wrong way
serving Truth brightens our days
pledge this new norm forget outworn scorn
let’s model sane examples for children
life is a gift gratitude prayed wish
may you find peace amongst madness.
Day Gun
born with Pluto in Aquarius
how long til' these children liberate us
with wild human nature
awakened from pacified failure
what might reality be like
not traumatizing kids day and night
poison fed meals
injecting sickening needles
imagine family raised in Truth
pray gratitude to Love from you
vision as fantasy it seems
stumbling drunk out of Pisces
standing on our heads so long
nearly everything 'known' upside down
fascinating fiction obscene
detach life from unholy corrupting machine.
Day Gun
long naked dock pierces the void
container for emotions awaiting sane foreign voice
is cynical a sin or northwest passage dark joy
life in review season's greetings annoy
years piling up like tossed out old toys
have lessons been learned dream maker boy
looking back now seeing all as a gift
if I've done you wrong please don't share your wish
hungry for witness who will be new allies
open to change in-service my pastime
hard to imagine stable true match
tears fill up eyes picturing loving catch
what targets ignite when shooting double barrel
prostate enlarged from storing so much ammo
cultish for some scaring secular shitless
Hand picked mission gratefully owning this.
Day Gun
News flash devils overran heaven
who let viscous vampires in
shadow side of Unconditional Love
no one not welcome where self undoing is done
please show bright side o' fallen world
who shall save us from tantalizing horror
how to cut cords end life support
for blood sucking training wheels out worn
think of Amish and wealthy
play long game start with family
leaving books poems and songs around
create healthy baby monks that know up from down
living lies exhaustingly deadly
waste of compassion treating poison friendly
at year's end make this pledge
witness stupid don't be it.
Day Gun
self will doesn’t last
past ego’s death
fake the math
until escape hatch mapped
my roll disturbs
playful sober hermit
shooting darts at herd
ones not buying absurd
loose our leash
poison as treats
tired trained sheep
blah blah bleak
an illuminated line
green grass other side
this day stop lying
reach out when leaping finally.
Day Gun
