Beautiful Killer
A pretty purple flower – so deceivingly beautiful Thin green leaves intertwined—a crush of death Below the soil surface parasitic roots Grasping, clutching, sucking the nutrients—and life The leaves of its host – grain for daily food Yellowing, sapped of strength Meant to feed a family That may now go […]

Significance
Speaking softly, saints surround Sorrowful sounds, someone’s spent Soundly sleeping — sad surprise Sobering slow serpentine Sinful, selfish situations Spirits, sex, stuff Squabbles, serial simulations Satisfaction … so sadly slight Surreptitious stealth Slick skewing, sloth Sly salutations, sordid speaking Squalid stench, significance searching Sirens’ screeching sound Serious surmising “So-long someone” […]

God, or I?
