A Splinter Of The Mind.

[Sonoran Na'vi]

Here are a couple poems I wrote tonight. The first one was inspired by Avatar in regard to the scene where Home Tree was destroyed.


"Chiseled"
I dream't a darkened day
Where the ash carried my heart away
And I now reside inside my cemented demented mind
A self-imposed cemetary
I was violently chiseled
Broken down and bound by my kind's mission
A prison in which I strained
My soul burst open as my heart drained
to curse the caress of my violent past
as I clench my chest of vast emptiness


"I Remember"
I remember the day a friend passed away
I remember a time I knew how to cry
I remember the memories of you and me
When we were young ones under the ghetto sun
The sirens and the violence couldn't ignite us
The second sun of the slums couldn't frighten us
And years I remembered the sound of your voice
But as noise and visions fade
I'll remember you as a friend from back way
Back way before homicide decided your fate
As I place yet another flower at the head of your grave
