For so long
I’ve worshipped
At logic’s altar
The cold linear stone now
Seems empty to me
Time to go within
Into mystery
The unspoken certainly
Arising from hope
And the love
For beauty
poetry, prose, and photography
For so long
I’ve worshipped
At logic’s altar
The cold linear stone now
Seems empty to me
Time to go within
Into mystery
The unspoken certainly
Arising from hope
And the love
For beauty

I think of beauty
There are so many choices
Tell me you love

Youthful frustration
Bring held back from greatness
Greatness would not wait
One theme in mythology: destiny cannot be resisted.
On the edge of dreams
I can see your eyes, briefly
Sadly, time’s mists win

“Broken Dreams” by andziadesign
Every so often, I like to challenge myself with my poetry. Today I logged into Bing Images, grabbed the first one, and crafted the haiku below.
A heart bursting forth
Anguish is encompassing
This near winter night

Love this autumn day
Which has crested into night
Now rest, finally
