Look deeper.
Delve deeper.
Face value is worthless.
It doesn’t reflect the truth.
It doesn’t reveal the real person.
You might like what you find,
or you might not.
But it will be the truth.
FACE VALUE
poetry
RED SKY
The sky glows red
with anger.
It shrieks thunder.
It rains tears.
Lightning sizzles
across its angry face.
Wait.
Watch.
Listen.
The sky is still in command.
It shows its wrath.
Then it grows calm
and releases the blue skies.
FORCE OF NATURE
FORCE OF NATURE
No greater force.
No remorse.
No stopping.
Not by a mountain
Nor by man.
THE NIGHT COMES
The night comes,
Dragging its feet,
Lurking in the corners.
Come to me.
I can’t wait much longer.
Your time is limited.
Enter my domain.
The wind sighs.
The moon shows its face.
The birds flee.
The spirits rise.
Yes, move closer.
TRAPPED IN WONDERLAND
Crowds of people.
Cars honking.
People pushing.
Where are they going?
A blur to me.
A mass of humanity.
Hurrying to their end.
No individuality.
No manners.
A need to get somewhere fast.
Trapped in their thoughts.
In a hurry to go nowhere.
DARE TO DREAM
DARE TO DREAM
I stare into the night.
I gaze at the unknown.
I dare to dream of flight
Before the time has flown.
When the night comes softly
On feet as light as air,
I can see more clearly
Of what I can dare.
Alone on this hilltop
With the freezing wind and cold,
I will race without stop
To places, I can be bold.
Darkness hides secrets and lies
Beneath its cloak of despair.
Secrets that severs all ties
Until the sun rises clear.
THE BEAST WITHIN
zodiacke: Beast by Klaus Wittmann
THE BEAST WITHIN
A beast lurks within us,
yearning to be free.
Tame the savage
or risk becoming one.
