Twilight of the Soul
Tonight was in possession of the most
sinister looking sunset.
October chill, shivers my step.
Haunted ominous gray drifting clouds
hover above the dying burnt orange sun.
Now a collapsed firey glow on the horizon.
To mirror dark charcoal thoughts,
like puffs of exhaust from a weary brain.
Roaring flames in my heart from a gasoline of pain.
For some the twilight of the soul has taken its reign.
sinister looking sunset.
October chill, shivers my step.
Haunted ominous gray drifting clouds
hover above the dying burnt orange sun.
Now a collapsed firey glow on the horizon.
To mirror dark charcoal thoughts,
like puffs of exhaust from a weary brain.
Roaring flames in my heart from a gasoline of pain.
For some the twilight of the soul has taken its reign.

The Houses Of None
I'm hurting but honesty keeps pushing through my thoughts
a scapel excising flesh from soul
exposing my vulenrability
cloaked in shadows
Mr. Dark comes forward
my guardian since time began
insulted rain, reigns in his disdain
under my breath I curse
I am unsure of his intent
he keeps coming on strong none the less
storming my sacred halls
presenting himself front and center
he believes he is in love with me
I don't share his sentiment
he thinks my honor is on the line
so with a...

Ordained
Ordained by the tip of my staff
Angles lead by Joshua slaying everything in our wicked path
Cleansing the earth of ever deceptive foul slithering beast
Commence the night, and enjoy the bloody feast
Well, you bring this phantom into play,
I have two swords one to allure and the other to slay
Do I look like I am remotely worried, no one in Heaven even knows your ancient demonic name
The headless demon severed, shitted, and pissed on, still wallowing in self-pity, and earthly shame
And now you are starting to hear these...
Angles lead by Joshua slaying everything in our wicked path

anxiety
the flames
draped
over
my folding
darkness,
the tangle
behind
blurring dreams,
pressed
in gleaming
ruins,
these
passing nights,
well worn
in layers
of frailty,
this brittle
climate,
this is
where
the candle
burns brightest
at sunrise.

COLD COCKED CURSE
Cold Cocked Curse
Slinking silently through the night
on tiny tipped toes, claws withdrawn.
He mustn’t sleep until daylight’s dawn,
prudently prowls, avoiding light.
Clever, cunning crones craft a spell
to purloin his priceless powers,
control them in Eve’s evil hours,
condemn powerless prey to Hell.
Hither, fine ferocious feline.
Soulfully sing your sacred song.
Whiskers hoary, lavishly long
subtle signs of ancient bloodline.
He will not succumb to witches
who wish to control, to command.
Here he...

those three children
We used to study in metro city and live in college hostel there.
Annual exams were coming and we used to study at night
Dinner was early at night, now I was hungry while reading
Me and my friend went out to for tea with the permission of the warden.
our college campus was huge so We took the cycles and just reached half a kilometer
n we saw from a distance that some people were going round and round in circle with some burning thing on their heads
We got a bit scared because we've never seen anything like this before
Nevertheless, we went ahead with some...

one night stand...
in the porcelain twilight dark flambe
amidst broken bottles & cigarette remains
pressed hard against shadowed stoop
pale flesh scarlet-kissed
burnished by glow of harlot light
ivory shoulders bared to night
skirt raised to bare a scandalous thigh
darkened marks adorn in handprint pattern
where desperate fingers eagerly traveled
wine-stained sighs & lusty growls
a single thumb resting upon racing pulse
as rhythm matches hungry thrust
claws rake as teeth sink deeply
one feeds passion
the other drinks freely ...

Deep Inside
Deep Inside
Tell me,
When you look at me
Do you see what I see?
Do you see the man that's actually me,
Or do you see what you want me to be?
Do you see the man who sometimes cries,
Cause he'll never think of himself as "handsome"?
Do you see the man who skips meals,
So he'll end up classified as "skinny"?
Or do you see the one that makes sure everyone else around him?
Is happy?
The one who'll give anything to see people smile
So they don't end up broken
Like he is?
It's like looking at...
