    Cruel Amnesia

    Lost moments these gaps in time Surrounded by such strange faces Unable to reason can’t find a rhyme Empty thoughts in random places   Can’t recall when the mask slipped Sometimes minutes feel like years Somehow the scale must of tipped Got this constant ringing in my...

    • Tremendous work, my friend.

    • Damian, this is strong tonic. I could feel this in my bones as I read. This i the stuff of poetry that feels like strong whiskey on the tongue. Sad but great writing.

    • Older age? I know all too well the fading of a few things within myself!
      Yet you haven’t lost your literary touch! You are blessed with talent, that hasn’t ebbed. Thankfully we write down our material, no need to remember them from scratch! LOL.
      You still can kick some ass with a pen, Damian. Wield it high!

    • Exquisite piece Damian. Well written my friend.

    • exceptional read! full of concise, vividly profound imagery…
      a sense of melancholic unrest. ~ c

    • As you so often do, you stirred levels here again. I read this from the personal perspective of memories slipping. A sense of self lost in blips of time. I also see this as the world arena and how people have lost their sense humanity, their compassion, their community. Like the whole damn world has global amnesia. And I read it as literal amnesia from losing time in the form of blanks in memory from drink or drugs. Many layers, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Well you know me, I love when there are multiple meanings and endless possibilities. lol. Sometime’s I think it’s probably little pieces of all those things rolled into one. I follow where my muse leads me. Appreciate you.

    Love As Ruin

    There was a time when the wax streamed from our hot flame.   There was a time when our fire was a spark, then passion caught flame.   There was a time when the flame light burned like hellfire.   We burned on like candlelight until we were...

    Our Soul-Light

    As our wax burns and drips down - our time is lost.   We both need darkness to see our flame - our soul-light.   We both need wind to see our flame's flickering persistence.   We both need ruins to see our flame illuminate a world -   which you...

    Rejection In Her Shadow

    When she walks on by she's so beautiful… The light in her eyes is warm-spirited… She never looks my way and it is wise… I once hurt her and I can't forgive myself… I've become something new within her darkness… Consumed by her cold...
