POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Been on a few sites, now trying this one with baited breath and poetry fingers crossed. Looks more than promising and hopefully rewarding. And that's it. Thanks for reading.
The War In Heaven.
Upon the golden fields of Heaven,
In the shade of immortal white towers.
Alongside life's clear river dwelling,
And amid endless undying flowers.
Archangels and Angels recall and reflect on...

Vanity And Virtue
Forget the slander you have heard
Forget the poison of each word
Forget the hate directed at you
Forget the lies spoken by a few
Forget the jealousies of the weak
Forget the riches that they seek
Forget the life of false pretence
Forget the ego lacking moral sense
Forget the languish of legions lost
Forget the line that's always crossed
Forget the agony of unfulfilled dreams
Forget the loud with constant screams
Forget the conflict you can't console
Forget the anguish you can't control
Forget the myriads that...

World Of Nothing
I created a world of nothing,
To escape this plane of reality.
Left its firm substance behind,
Of all problems now finally free.
Sole denizen of my domain,
This dimension of mind design.
Roaming as far as I please,
On nihility without borderline.
In my endless realm of void,
Seeing only what I deem to see.
With no obstacles to surmount,
Where nothing ever harrows me.
No chaos, duplicity and discord, ...

It Knows What Scares You
It dwells in me,
This endless hate.
No human morals,
My mind does debate.
My identity hidden,
Until Halloween night.
Clues I will drop,
With cunning delight.
But beware my lies,
Strewn among truth.
Then scream my name,
From what you sleuth.
I'll make half-promises,
That I might keep.
I'll reveal my name,
Before your final sleep.
At the very end,
It will be presented.
Then all are damned,
And slowly tormented.
I sometimes sleep,
But not for long.
When I...

Season Of The Witch
From the dawn of time she came,
Moving malevolently through the centuries.
No-one ever knowing she was among us,
Until now...
Sorceress!
For I'm the man, the soul she let slip away,
To tell of her dark legend to all this day.
To abandon virtues for they are gone for good,
All splintered and consumed like mere firewood.
Beware of her and of her dark witchery,
Her sweet of talk seeded with trickery.
Sharpness of tongue casts a necromanced spell,
This devil's daughter from the bowels of hell.

Tales From The Crypt
Dark greetings bold stranger I welcome you,
Now ready one's heart for what's on view.
Terrifying tales aplenty this Halloween Night,
Painted black and red with no end in sight.
Be warned they're not for any faint hearted,
For if unprepared you'll join many departed.
Tales of torment and fear with stories of woe,
Now lets kick off my Halloween horror show...
Jack The Ripper Returns
Beneath the streets of London,
There sleeps a nasty surprise.
Waiting patiently in the sewers,
For many their hidden demise.

Nightmaria
In the dark domain of Nightmaria,
Nothing truly is as what it seems.
What many perceive as a fantasy,
Are held captive in their own dreams.
A nightmare cocooned in a dream,
A dream sheathed in a nightmare.
Both paradoxes of equal measure,
In Nightmaria identities are laid bare.
All think they can cut through,
Its dense forests of confusion.
Returning to earth's astral plane,
An escape that is pure illusion.
Once held in Nightmaria's clutches,
It deafly ignores every pitiful plea.
All lost...

Sorrowful Trees
Sorrowful trees,
Sallow and Yew.
Sighs are your breeze,
Tears are your dew.
Sad is your shade,
Gloomy and cold.
Where she is laid,
Under the mould.
Kind were her deeds,
Gentle and true.
Nothing she needs,
My soul subdued.
Funeral dark weeds,
Over her tomb.
Worn by my knees,
Under your gloom.
Spring will return,
Autumn brings leaves.
Summer shall burn,
Winter will freeze.
Seasons can range,
Ages may roll.
Nothing can change, ...

A Little Breath Of Scandal
A little breath of scandal,
And a pair of eager ears.
Suddenly a public tale is told,
That only fades after many years.
The breaking of a doomed soul,
With old friends passing by.
A little breath fanned by the breeze,
I wonder wonder why.
A little act of kindness,
Where are those eager ears.
Where is that breeze to circulate,
It might live through the years.
For little deeds mean nothing,
Only nasty rumours fly.
It seems all wrong, but is it so,
I wonder wonder why...
And a pair of eager ears.

I Will Never
I will never bow my head,
To those who seek to overcome.
I will never yield my ground,
For any who trespass carefree.
I will never speak of ills,
Of my family and friends.
I will never kneel before,
False kings and baubles.
I will never band with bullies,
Cowards and low moral fibre.
I will never beg mercy or seek solace,
From multitude Gods.
I will fight them forever,
I will never, never give up.
And if the odds are unsurmountable,
Then I and many others will die trying.
For a good death is its own reward.
To those who seek to overcome.
I will never yield my ground,
For any who trespass carefree.
I will never speak of ills,
Of my family and friends.
I will never kneel before,
False kings and baubles.
I will never band with bullies,
Cowards and low moral fibre.
I will never beg mercy or seek solace,
From multitude Gods.
I will fight them forever,
I will never, never give up.
And if the odds are unsurmountable,
Then I and many others will die trying.
For a good death is its own reward.
