Communication 82

your prison

your prison is the skin,
your eye a hole the light creeps in
in your body, disease lays waiting
hearts and minds deteriorating,
I am your prison,
you are my reason
to make a break
to make my escape

Communication 81

don’t stay frightened

my hips are at right angles, yours curve left       
I can feel your pulse race as we hold our breath,
the fear it’s passing through our veins  
our soul, it shatters but the spirit remains

Communication 80

Here lies a soldier

Firmly rooted he stands alone
in his forest of quiet nurture,
standing tall a wooden throne
once stood below the elder.

A sapling survivor from thorough day,
his branch an undue perch,
his ancestors, a remaining few,
the oak, the silver birch.

post war bliss:

subproject 3

this terror in my head wont heal,
stripping away the layers like orange peel
my broken memories I’ve not forgotten,
periodically scratching riddles on the wall,
with no recollection of what I’m driven to drawn
gentle persuasion through electroshock
caused my mind to shift ………………………

I’m walking a black path illuminated poorly
by the remnants of LSD and tranquilizers
an unwilling participant for those that stood before me
restrictive isolation - telltale signs of sleep deprivation,
senses severely dulled due to repeated exposure to
varied nerve gases, project ‘Artichoke’
mind control of the masses ………………………

a mind vulture,
MK ULTRA …………………

Plummeting

this fledgling fell fast through life’s passage 
 careering toward a point in time he’d keep
he held tight to what he forged through courage
 poised with the posture of a saint he reached 
toward another he believed he could teach
