You didn't know I knew,
It was the minute you gave up,
The second you refused to try,
The moment you ceased to believe,
...

Fire!
Clang went the metal across the wooden ladder,
black smoke engulfing the air,
dog barking in the distance,
...

A whisper was heard faintly at first and then as though it was coming from within
A walk during dawn
the path a rugged road divided
scent of sea salt to the left
...

Knowledge is commanding,
Nothing new,
Pretentious floundering experimental you,
Gather your wits,
...

A brush, a glance, a simple comment,
how far would one go to improve the world? ,
a dime, a nickle, maybe a quarter,
perhaps just listening to someone who needs to be heard,
...

Many take the path most traveled to their destination avoiding the thorns and bushes and undesired reflections.
Paths traveled less part a time,
when thoughts become privy to a moment of clarity.
Like a smoky haze at dawn sending chills down ones spine,
...

I read by the fire light,
I am shadowed by the mist,
seeping through the window panes,
colder the weather grows,
...
