Veiled... black lace,
Performs her seduction
Enchanting mere mortals -

A mortal's mistake
Ruining the perfect portrait
For the resting head
Fearful heartbeats now echo
A thousand apologies...

Reverting queens and heroes
To average mortals,
Now just like everybody's,
They join the lost loves' graveyard...

Hours fly,
Mortals die;
New days,
Old ways
Pass by.

Hearts stray.
Bodies are clay;
Sun shines,
Moon pines
But love stays....

Morsels you give 
to mortals in need

Steal their votes, 
hide your greed

Grin with fake 
generosity

In the glare 
of publicity....

Lawn
Eyes in the sky
looking down
mere mortals
cutting the lawn,
there is no mercy
for a little clown
what am I doing here?
this is not my town.

Ultimate horse of myth,
Unique its spiral horn.
Unequaled in beauty,
Unlike any other.
Unattainable to
Us mortals; magical.
Utterly enchanting.

Oh, tomorrow,

You are so near, yet you are so far.

Uncertain for all of us mortals,

In reality, you are!

Swimming in oceans beyond our own understanding. 

Like Atlantis lost in a portal of astonishment.

Mortals forever wandering on-wards lost in the mountains of existence....

So good to
Look up
To the sky
And on 
My mark
Let the
Kites go
And blast forth
The rockets
In smoke 
Filled bursts
And around
We stand
Lowly mortals
Feet in sand...
