Joshua Newland Poems

Silver cloud line over the mottle grey sky
Sense the motion above mother earth
See that no wind stirs the palmtrees
Silence lays over all the hills
...

The street is desolate
All around gather shadows
Remember, She's here
That night she was here
...

Walking through a tunnel of light blinded by the night sky
Where black hole stars twinkle and chase round in squares
In the cubic expanse overhead a figure dressed in white walks
Abandoned by all her followers
...

Raised in this world of wonder and excitement
Taught that everybody has a chance
Learned to love my neighbors too
Saw the joy of song and dance
...

A thoughtful man alone
Alone in his own world
World of chaos and destruction
Destruction happens second nature
...

We are walking this plane of life
Three dimensional sight and stereo sound
The plane above where angels walk
Guarded by God from all around
...

I was driving the other day
I was talking on the phone
I was laughing, singing
I was doing eighty
...

Tiny space Many voices
In my ear Inside my head
Reverberating
Talk to me And I stare
...
