Saturnine Resplendence
In silence deep, where suns are blind
The Autarch reigns with chill unkind
A sovereign of the void’s embrace
'Midst shadowed orbs and starless space
The cold dominion, vast and wide
Where planets drift and horrors bide
Unseen by light of mortal kin
The reign of shadows, dark as sin
With scepter forged in Saturn’s dread
He walks the paths where gods have bled
The ancient dark between the stars
Where silence splits like metal scars
His throne is built on nameless stone
Where time is bent, and laws dethrone ...
The Autarch reigns with chill unkind
A sovereign of the void’s embrace
'Midst shadowed orbs and starless space
The cold dominion, vast and wide
Where planets drift and horrors bide
Unseen by light of mortal kin
The reign of shadows, dark as sin
With scepter forged in Saturn’s dread
He walks the paths where gods have bled
The ancient dark between the stars
Where silence splits like metal scars
His throne is built on nameless stone
Where time is bent, and laws dethrone ...

The Emperor's Angels
Iron halls and stone keep
Where saints and devils vigil keep
The Emperor's wrath in armor clad
Awaken from the battle’s mad
With sigils carved in blood and flame
They march where mortal tongues won’t name
The Angels forged in terror’s breath
The harbingers of crimson death
Their shadows stretch like whispered sins
Where holy light and night begins
For they are wrath and judgment's hand
The sentinels of a burning land
Their eyes aflame with ancient lore
Baptized in war forevermore
They chant in tongues of lost occult ...

Make it worth your while, cause you'll be winding up in jail
When Ron Chee's father asked him to turn off the two radio's and television set he was listening to simultaneously, Ron beat him over the head with a baseball bat. Racked with guilt over the terrible thing he had done, Ron decided to kill himself. First though, he went bowling. He didn't bowl to well.
Then with the money he stole from dad's wallet, he took himself to a 5 star restaurant. From there he went to visit his grandmother (his father's mother). He told his grandmother that dad is in a much happier place. She tried calling the police when he revealed he killed her son. That...

Some heads are gonna roll
Lance Lyde was distraught after decapitating his wife in 2018. Driving erratically into downtown Billings, Montana, he attracted the attention of a police cruiser. Lyde crashed his truck into an oncoming vehicle, killing two more people. On impact, Sadie Lyde's head flew out of the truck and landed several feet away. Mr. Lyde got out of the truck and begged police to shoot him. The police let him live. The rest of Mrs. Lyde was later found in the dining room of the couple's home. It looked like they were about to eat breakfast.

Immerse
Angels descend
Raptures burst
Crystal skies
Souls in search
Brushed with wings
Reverse state
Transcend thoughts
Immerse fate

What a pity
During a 1990 KKK initiation ritual in Kentucky, Eaton Beaver fired several shots into the air. Perhaps not fully grasping the concept of gravity, he never considered that what goes up must come down. The descending bullet struck fellow Klansman Harry Azcrac in the head, wounding him critically.

This dog has nine lives
Andy Felthersnatch's dog burst into flames when it peed on a live wire. Felthersnatch later told the press, "There was an almighty explosion and the whole street lit up. I turned around and my dog was on fire." Power was off for five hours that day in a small town 30 miles north of Ottawa, Canada. Against all odds, the dog survived.

The Asylum, circa 1900
The people at the dreary hotel
Are either aged or unwell
The guests who chose to stay aloof
Lie wrapped in rugs upon the roof
A statue with a gas-lamp torch
Has toppled over on the porch
The way others wish to go
Have been obscured by drifted snow
Unknown objects falling from the air
The careful stroller better beware
It's known that the skating pond conceals
A family of enormous eels
Those who have escaped can die with dignity
Tortured, raped & beaten by the malignity
The monuments above the dead
Are too eroded...
Are either aged or unwell
The guests who chose to stay aloof
Lie wrapped in rugs upon the roof
A statue with a gas-lamp torch
Has toppled over on the porch
The way others wish to go
Have been obscured by drifted snow
Unknown objects falling from the air
The careful stroller better beware
It's known that the skating pond conceals
A family of enormous eels
Those who have escaped can die with dignity
Tortured, raped & beaten by the malignity
The monuments above the dead
Are too eroded...

A girl, two birds, some candy & a very large cat
Once upon a time a little girl was going to take her doll for a walk when there she was, meeting two nice little birds
She dropped them a pretty little bow and said to them,
"Good afternoon, little birds, will you play with me?"
"I have some lovely candy in my little bag"
"I'll give you some"
One of the birds said, "I have no objection"
and the other said, "Neither do I"
They enjoyed themselves very much until it was nearly evening
Then the little birds said, "We want to go away now" ...

To die for.., (7)
She was gone
Louis remained on his knees
Moments later
He was grabbed from behind
Two men wrestled him back into the hotel room
He strained his kneck to see their faces
As he turned his head
Everything went black
His hands were cable tied behind his back
Sian drove fast
She needed to forget just what happened
Louis would be alright she told herself
No one had followed them there had they?
She speed on, chain smoking as she went
Louis was manhandled into a chair
He felt pressure to the back...
