Darkness descends upon the
earth like a flag shrouds the coffins of deceased valor,
The dying gasp of the sun highlights
the western horizon, lighting my way home,
Creepily beautiful silhouettes
of pine veils the secrets of a past best forgotten,
Green pastures are
littered with darkened rolls of hay, a painting of haunting dreams lying dead
in a cemetery.
Dreams of happiness, of
love divine,
A role created in the heavens and forged in the fires of hell,
The flames of the dragon strips it all away, a lingering poem ne’er retelling,
A darkness falls upon this earth.

I am a good ole country boy residing in North Mississippi. I love to read, fish, hunt, hike and go to garage sales. Flea markets are a passion of mine. I read anything, but some of my favorites are: Dean Koontz, Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, T.S. Eliot, Shakespeare, and I possess a fondness for the writings of William Faulkner and Mark Twain. If I am forced to choose, I prefer baseball to football. I enjoy Alabama football (Roll Tide)! My baseball teams include: The Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox.
I am divorced, the father of two daughters and live by myself with Chunk and Roscoe (my dogs).
