Life as a Jew

Sitting in a room
I'm trapped between these walls.
I've sat here patiently
hearing pleading calls.
 I'd help them if I could
although I've never tried.
I know my time will come
so it's no use to hide.
I have the Star of David
stitched on all my shirts.
The Nazis torture us
in every way it hurts.
The soldiers grab my bony arm
along with my other friends.
We've been here long enough
this is when our pain ends.
Inside a darkened room
our clothes are all disposed.
Something is dropped inside
and then the window is closed.
Panic is all around
everyone gasps for air.
We climb on one another
our bodies are all bare.
Finally with my last breath
I have reached the top.
Collapsing on my dead friends
I know my heart will stop. (circa 2005)

Boredom Land

Creativity ebbs and flows why this is, no one knows. Boredom overtakes with its power each and every single hour. Although the trilogy is complete it's victory still remains my defeat. To conquer would be so grand to venture away from Boredom Land.

Second Chance

A second chance was given to me  to ensure that I fulfill my destiny. To strengthen my love, to grow, to trust to overcome all obstacles is a must.  A clean slate of all accounts vanquish any crazy doubts. Forge ahead in a romantic blaze ensure that this is not a phase. Back on the path, hand-in-hand moving ahead with a man so grand. Eternal bliss and love forever we will always be together.

It's Electric

The room crackles from electric shock. With each touch comes a zap, a pop. Thunder rumbles on as we continue to roll. Lightning flashes in your eyes as you take control. Guided by candle light, the storm rages on. Rain gently taps the panes but we're too far gone. (circa 2006)
