The song...

"Give me a song..."



Pen. Paper. Pablo.

They were all there.



The words were there.





It was all there, but


The song.....

The unusual lullaby...

"I'm gonna tell God everything", he said.


The life of three summers

Walked the grave...



A hundred corpses

A thousand rubble...





With love, Dylan.....

The hero...

He was a hero, they said.



A brave hero

A valiant hero

Alive from the jaws of death.



A glorious hero, he was

A true hero...





War had no heroes, though


The perished, and the remnants.....

The obituary...

The sliced rainbow across the burnt skies

Inexpensive bone china, the poetry of a stale coffee

Your glass, drenched in my rains

The monochrome city streets arrested...





A midnight dream, napalm wrapped, forgotten in


The jihad of a crimsoned Quran.....
