1.
With Fire

A road begun, so distant.
A masterpiece, insistent.
Divided rolls at parting,
provided each a farthing
...

2.
In The End

Awakened by song of long distant voice,
a beam of light cuts the abyss.
Serenades calling, the lost and the falling,
sneaking into lives gone far amiss.
...

3.
The Mentor

I paused to stand and watch a man who had come to the road's divide,

and the looming shadows of what might have been.
...

9.
As I Am Seen

What do the heavens think of me?
When God looks down what does he see?
What things run through his mind and fill his heart?
...

10.
Atop This Wall

when thus far all endeavors have failed?
Why should I struggle to win in this world
when each chance that I've had I've assailed?
