January 30, 2015 Carl SetzerLeave a comment

Upon life’s river
Flowing gracefully downwards
Or crashing rapids

Evening Time

January 28, 2015 Carl Setzer1 Comment

Evening floats
Down upon my mind
I drift gently over
These vacant, mist-like
Dreams born of others.
Collapsing into my
Mind’s silence.

Journeying skywards
Reaching far beyond the sky
Embraced by the stars

Sadness coming when
Our gentle hearts pushing far
Cannot return home

Strange duality
Each thing’s opposite tangled
Deeply into one.

This morning birdsong
So very loud, boisterous.
Visions of spring time

Wretched

Wretched dreams drift
Pavement grinds against my mind.
Coldness burns my soul

Light drifting through trees
Dancing wildly through the leaves
Springtime calls my dreams

Fear’s Erosion

January 22, 2015 Carl SetzerLeave a comment

Fear erodes our mind;
Dragging beautiful reason
To raging madness
