One Hundred and Twenty-Six
Fuses
Waiting for the end
Cannons mark the finish line
Fuses sparked with age

One Hundred and Twenty-Five
Arms
Fingers, lips, and hearts
Living in each other's arms
We outshine the stars

One Hundred and Twenty-Four
Words
Fight the burning eyes
Empty threats to fill the void
Silent words unheard

One Hundred and Twenty-Three
Brush
Paint me shades of green
Canvas ripped in dreams at night
Brush strokes tipped with red

122
One Hundred and Twenty-Two
Unbecoming
Taken from the skies
Storms that tear the world apart
Unbecoming rage

One Hundred and Twenty-One
Reach
Sinking out of reach
Screaming slips to lifeless limbs
Echoes on the waves

One Hundred and Twenty
Broken
Waiting to go numb
Broken time and time again
Pain that never dulls

Sound
Shield yourself with sound
Speak in thoughts that no one hears
Tremble in the dark
Saturday, January 22, 2011
118
One Hundred and Eighteen
Arid
Once the strength of steel
Life succumbs to arid waste
Fissures lace the ground

One Hundred and Seventeen
Bliss
Forever falling
One can only fall so far
Ignorance was bliss
Thursday, January 20, 2011

One Hundred and Sixteen
Ruby
Such deafening noise
Drowning out the sounds of peace
Slashed in ruby rain
Wednesday, January 19, 2011
115
One Hundred and Fifteen
Reign
Night falls while you sleep
Unseen vices all but reign
Running from the light
Tuesday, January 18, 2011
114
One Hundred and Fourteen
Drip
Half-full coffee cups
Stories told among the lost
Emptied drip by drip
Monday, January 17, 2011
113
One Hundred and Thirteen
Insect
Bites that sting and bleed
Too late is the insect seen
Venom slowly spreads
Sunday, January 16, 2011
112
One Hundred and Twelve
Seen
Blossoms on the hill
One small thorn hides in their midst
Hoping to be seen

One Hundred and Eleven
Call
Bait for the weak-willed
Revolutions call me home
Tempted with a dream
Friday, January 14, 2011

One Hundred and Ten
Unlock
Vibrant monotone
Light-borne fingers wield the keys
Unlock sleeping souls
Thursday, January 13, 2011
109
One Hundred and Nine
Plucked
Horrors washed ashore
Sinking tides reveal the truth
Plucked from foaming waves
Wednesday, January 12, 2011
108
One Hundred and Eight
Worth
Likened to the stars
Set above the world below
Scorned for all their worth
Tuesday, January 11, 2011
107
One Hundred and Seven
Fool
Masks that seem so sweet
Every beat, another fool
No one stops to think
Monday, January 10, 2011
106
One Hundred and Six
Glass
Mute the humble sound
Coolly watch the steady fall of
Rain behind the glass
Sunday, January 9, 2011
105
One Hundred and Five
Call
Sunlight struggles through
Storms are brewing just ahead
Waiting for their call
Saturday, January 8, 2011
104
One Hundred and Four
Havoc
Clouds predict a storm
Lightning poses empty threats
Havoc wrought in flames
Friday, January 7, 2011
103
One Hundred and Three
Confirm
Weakness takes the blame
New and old confirm defeat
Never show your strength

One Hundred and Two
There
Wind combs through my hair
Once I thought it pulled me home
Now it drags me there
101
One Hundred and One
Passage
Multitudes of man
Setting forth on broken trails
Passage has a cost

Aging
Knowing what I don't
Reach toward an aging past
Endings come and go

Ninety-Nine
Door
Perfectly composed
Laughter never sounds so real
Rushing to the door
Sunday, January 2, 2011
98
Ninety-Eight
Savage
Quick to cast them down
Subtle hints and savage lies
Always on the run
Saturday, January 1, 2011
97
Ninety-Seven
Haunt
Pictures on the wall
Faces melt in cold contempt
Demons haunt these halls
