Alone with yourself

When the night is empty
of even echoes,
what do you hear there
in the silence?

When it’s past midnight
and the lights are out,
what do you see there
watching you in the dark?

When you’re lying in bed
reaching for sleep,
what do you feel there
between your sheets?

When you think that you’re alone,
who is right there by your side?
Who else would be there,
but the you whom you wish to hide?

Celestial Tear

libian glass 1 libian glass 2

A fragment of a fallen star –
ages old, yet without scars.
She shines like a diamond in the night,
piercing the dark with a silver light.

Now the sterling celestial seed
blooms like a flower amid the reeds
to bring such beauty and such grace
to an ancient deserted place.

Little Morty

Little Morty 1 Little Morty 2

Little Morty, all in bed.
Little Morty – yes, he’s dead,
but Little Morty isn’t sad.
In fact – Little Morty’s glad!
You can see it in his grin,
how it’s painted on his chin,
and how it never leaves his face,
and how his dead eyes stare off into space.
