Eternal Chapter Seven: The Call For Help Baby didn’t like this one bit. Being sent home to watch that kid. But it was always like this wasn’t it. Charlie would just park Baby somewhere and walk off to do whatever. And maybe he would tell Baby what happened, if he didn’t forget to. Heck, I’m not going to just park myself this time, I’m going to change and explore Charlie’s house. I’ve always wanted to know what Charlie did in there. Baby morphed before he came to a full stop and c

Eternal Chapter Six: A Setup Charlie watched as Grant and Tank got out and started walking down the street, before they stopped and turned to look at him still sitting inside the black Hummer. “How do I get into these messes? I have no idea what to do or look for. Might as well get out and tell Grant what a faker I am.” Charlie mused to himself and opened his door and walked toward Grant and Tank who where intently staring into his eyes. About five feet away Charlie stopped a

Eternal Chapter Five: A Tempered Soul Charlie found himself backed up into a corner. It wasn’t funny. The wolf in front of him was pawing at the linoleum flooring trying it’s best to get to him. The only thing stopping the very large wolf with the very big teeth was Grant who had a grip on the wolf’s tail. “Damn Tank control yourself.” Was Grant laughing, Charlie sure wasn’t. Suddenly Tank circled, clipping Grant behind the knees and down he went. Following thru on his clever

Eternal Chapter Four: Chaos Under the pretense of locking his truck, Charlie asked Baby to return home and watch out for the kid. That there was a situation involving Grant and that he would most likely be gone for the rest of the night and into the next day. And yes Baby new what a phone was and was sure he could answer one. And yes he would wait until Grant drove away before leaving himself. Gees, I wasn’t born yesterday, Baby thought. Grant was pissed. Frustrated and hu

Eternal Chapter Three: Trinity Baby continued to monitor the situation. There was a lot of wiggling and pushing and pulling as the two jockeyed for position. And there were a lot of vocalizations that were almost echoes of each other. And then Baby sensed something else, a joining of their bodies. And there was more. The essence. Baby knew where he came from. For a lack of a better word, Baby knew his soul came from the essence poured into him by Charlie. And that was what Ch

Eternal Chapter Two: Baby Charlie sighed again and hopped into his truck. His baby. A 1965 short bed Ford with the biggest V-8 available at the time. Black on the outside and light blue on the inside, at least the leather was light blue. The truck was immaculate, not because it had been restored or anything like that, but because it was enchanted. Charlie always told himself it was a silly mistake but that didn’t stop him from wishing the truck would always remain the same as t

Eternal Chapter One: Charles Charlie held back his smile. Actually, the pick up line was funny and original as far as he knew. He had never heard it before. And Charlie heard them all at one time or another, especially when he came into one of these bars. He looked up from his beer and turned to see who the fool was. As he suspected, another kid, maybe twenty. Charlie passed for thirty if he didn’t shave. Clean shaven and in broad daylight he was more like twenty-five. But toda

A Sun Shiny Sky A sun shiny sky Warmth etched across a back Stops me in my track A heart at peace A mind about to cease A promise I must keep At least once a day Be happy for me At least once a day Here is the chance To perform this play How often I look to the sky Beauty presiding there While I walk my garden this night Two gardens One an infinite expanse One a finite picket fence A promise I must keep At least once a night Be happy

A Raining Day A raining day in heaven Simply the way of things Drops in my hair Some you walk away from Mist upon my lips Some you rush and run to Dew across my shoulders Some are problems and some are problems Riverlets The meaning of absurdities Grand gestures and passion sighs Inane and insane A glance to the sky Barriers behind A creature of song Meant to be solitary No cry or demand to listen too I don’t want to tell you how I feel

Missing The last moment Not a touch shared Just a question And a confirmation Yes We are done Why is that enough Now After a forever of Look, see, hear Talk to me Eternal turns infernal Disbelief confronts relief You are so beautiful I wish We shared a home Imagined Where is that hesitation now Goodbye so easy The final ordeal tame A charm now for one A curse now for A muse Sound that pounds Knowing no bounds Bindin

This Time That sweet realization That sorrowful goodbye It chases me And I chase you This time This time Before I die I let myself forget It is dust covered yet Will I find A handful of kisses For one just met This time This time Before I sigh What fills this void What drains this cup My numbered days Count down to smiles And lip sealed secrets Wordlessly ply This time This time Before I lie This is what I want T

Nothing The easiest thing to write about is nothing. It fills up your life. I know my heart is full of it. It is all around us all. And there is nothing there at all. So why comment on it. Well because it is kind of comforting to know that nothing is there. So this is about nothing. So you don't have to worry. I feel nothing. I give nothing. I want nothing. My eyes leak, well that is nothing. My body shakes, well that is nothing. Words are nothing. Happy? W

Today You know what tears are. Then don't ask for your minute. Don't wait for another hour. Leave today. You know what promises are. Then don't ask for my pardon. Don't seek out another favor. Forget today. Do you know what hurt is. I don't know if that is what I feel. Maybe it is only disappointment. Live tomorrow. A path of joy led to you. With every turn and twist discovery. A merry chase thru the garden. This cruel path leads from you. A c

Seems Clear To hid the hurt I run cavalier To turn from pain I often leer To keep my peace I forget the sneer Don't ever forget you are only my peer Remember to forget that fear Promise to renege of all you hear Count to zero before you jeer Don't come back never be near Everything in my life now seems clear Everything you gave is no longer dear Everything you took is nothing mere Don't look back listen to me cheer

Can't Say That I want to write But I can't say this And I can't say that Better not say this Shouldn't say that You see Can't Say That And all the other Well the day is long The night is longer The sky is gray My heart is darker You see Can't say that.

Which A back to back sleepless night. A love quarrel about love, without love. Which. So we turn our backs. Pretend not to feel the heat. Would you get up and leave. Which. I'm really mad cause you smiled the whole time. Silly, you said. I'm being silly. Which. You wouldn't be cornered by a word. Words are traps set to enslave. Which. Then what is f**king? But a trap. But I like that part and I like the figh

CREEPER Chapter Seven: Let Me Handle This Spin. And let go. Fall. And rise up. Flee. And care not. Love. And change. ~*~ Face down in the sand and gasping for breath, Landry couldn’t think. He had swallowed too much salt water he knew, diving over and over until his own survival was is question. He was going to throw up. And he did. Not having the strength left to lift his own head, the bilge water gorged out of his mouth and nose. Choking him again, a reminder of his s

CREEPER Chapter Six: Land and Sea Stealing moments. Time in hand. Gone from care. One for another. Given and taken and pressed dear. ~*~ “I need to see to Charger’s needs first, but yes you should know how to swim.” Landry wanted his own needs met. What? He had never thought about Isaac this way before. He only felt sadness for the lad. Now, he felt like a cat watching a bird he couldn’t reach but wanted bad. How else was he suppose to feel when desire parades

CREEPER Chapter Five: Desire Harbor you encompass me and in turn we share a purpose. Haven. Desire. Revelation from just one look? Landry was not sure what exactly to look at in this moment. Red hair. Well, how can one call this just red hair? Because it was molten gold, heated by the sun to flame. Even wet it burned lustrous, gleaming. It hung in gentle, heavy curls from his crown in a garland of tangles that must have taken hours to arrange… for such ingenious, flawle
