S.W. Clark

Beyond the incandescent tear
plagues an ignorant festering fear.... of knowing naught of tomorrow.

Yet with hope stars lasso
...

'Merlin's Prophesy'

A ghastly defeat
without honor or pride
...

In a forest dusk
of pontine gloom
lives a lonely creature called
Loki-Loom.
...

I lift my hands
My God, to Thee,
raised with no malignity.
I lift my heart
...

What is Love
without the air
filled with fresh picked flowers.
What is Love
...

What lead us to flight on this lit offset night
That hearts rhythm in tune could aspire scenes of Heaven so soon.
Let the world pass for me and you,
the feeling of Love's coming through.
...

Got this drum upon my chest
someone hear
as I beat a tune
it is me comin' near.
...

Appease the man who stands
alone to fight the ills that wane.
Forgive his debts, what price hath
a soul, and do it again and again.
...

'twas twenty years ago
when things went well ya know
I beat against the flow
...

Fate has tethered this soul property of mine,
links of fear and guilt make up its grasping line,
Clutching my bleeding spirit and tearing pieces of weakened flesh.
A leech of Life
...

We have learned how to reject what was dearest to us,
And how to accept what we stood against,
That all was without cost, that only things accepting,
and to our appeal did we notice and delight in.'
...

A farce set night
dwindling twilight
how the light has escaped our eyes.
Our fears draw near
...

What could equal freedom in the
life of love of one delphis
Geos creating the superb of all kind.
Having with man the equal mind.
...

I don't want to 'do it' because
I tried before and failed
Don't want to 'do it' because
of the times I have bewailed.
...

Dream of yonder netherworld
touch it lest ye fear.
Dwell in places never real
forget what sheds the tear.
...

Found the place to soil the mind
sulking the mental in a cauldron of the untold
No time nor dimension to limit
what I find
...

Should elders ever allowed to speak
that mysteries can be understood
or shall the child reign
and tell us all what we shouldn't or should,
...

'Give me more time! ' he cried,
'I'm in despair, wretched am I.
A few more days to change I need,
and without a doubt I will succeed.'
...

There was a man, who was a man you see
whose only change was insanity.
He had the right to live like you and me
though he had on occasion that problem
...

He looked and saw
a dark little boy,
naked, hungry and weak.
He forgot his wealth
...
