POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
In my spare time I have been known to end pointless threads with a quick kill. And rarer than that is when I write poetry.
Siezure the Day
At the outset the body seems fine.
Then the shivering quivering shadow fell
Darkness descended upon the soul
It is has come.
Void is its name.
A subtle knife struck every inch
every cell in the body
every note in the plucked string heart
to leave a lifeless carrion.
Cold to all feeling but contempt.
The bones of Viddax fell distant.
The psychotic mania was gone
replaced by a desire
not to burn
but to eradicate
to remove it all
and bring Void.
Then the shivering quivering shadow fell
Darkness descended upon the soul
It is has come.
Void is its name.
A subtle knife struck every inch
every cell in the body
every note in the plucked string heart
to leave a lifeless carrion.
Cold to all feeling but contempt.
The bones of Viddax fell distant.
The psychotic mania was gone
replaced by a desire
not to burn
but to eradicate
to remove it all
and bring Void.

Cry 'Madness' and let slip the Dog for War
Cry 'Madness' and let slip the Dog for War.
Arise Viddax.
My alter-ego
Show these mortals
the power of madness
and all its gladness
and all its sadness
show them all of it.
Then kill them.
They prized confounded sense
Raised solely in its murk
Then frightened of change
of fear
of darkness near.
I hate how they prefer light
goodness, purity and the white.
It makes them weak
and meek
They fear one side of the coin
Flip it and flip their perception
Come my hero, my champion
Bring the Madness
If only you...

Blessings of Set, Incantation One
Blessings of Set,Incantation One
I am thus a desert
For I am relentless
in my burning passion
Yet my vengeance
can be cold and clinical
For this is the nature
of a desert.
Hot and Cold
married together in holy matrimony
the opposites made compatible
the antisthesis focussed
On one common goal
On one common enemy.
At times I burn myself
My mind ignites
and destroys my will
my purity, my sanity
But worse than that
Is the icy void
where no thought doth stir
where all feeling has fleed.
Thus the two...

Taunt Proclamation (mock epic)
Oh, Holy Appollo above
Give us the wisdom we do love
Oh, mighty benevolent Muse
we do prostrate in our twos.
For it is by your divine right
Events by day, by night
Of Cataclysms great
Of Revolutionaries irate
Of lands far beyond our sea
Of people from volcanoes flee.
Liberate us from our ignorant state
Guide our world with honourable fate.
heralds amassed thy word they read
An army organised for the delicate deed.
A man, a woman, a mortal yet
The stage of world is ready set.
Legions await thy omnipotent word
Give us a guide...
Give us the wisdom we do love
Oh, mighty benevolent Muse
we do prostrate in our twos.
For it is by your divine right
Events by day, by night
Of Cataclysms great
Of Revolutionaries irate
Of lands far beyond our sea
Of people from volcanoes flee.
Liberate us from our ignorant state
Guide our world with honourable fate.

I love my wife, she is my knife
The knife is my only true wife
She goes everywhere with me
Wherever I go
I take her with me
We do it together
We are synchronised
Poetry in motion
I strut, she cuts
I kiss, she kills
I kick she flicks
open
I like how she feels
I share her with people
I show her to their neck
and their hands and their arms
She caresses them with cold contempt
I love my wife, she is a knife
I love to dress her up in red
and watch it splash her head
Red all around her silver face
She's so easy...

He's a Killer
I walk down the street
The earth beneath my feet
I look normal just like you
My pleasant face seems true
And you would never guess
That I could make distress
Screams and wails as they die
Blood splashing, flowing by
With a knife or fist
After I've kissed
Whatever I can reach
Hands-on, pain I teach
Police swarm round the scene
Blood splattered over the screen
Blood running down the TV screen
Life can seem to be so mean
It was all over my hands
Viens, skin and glands
Washed away like rain
All the...

Manic beseeching
Free me!
Cast off these corrupted cloths
Remove this ridiculous appearance
Shed the sickly sinful skin
I want to be free of this madness
Of this frenzied mania
And its stupid useless warped mess
I want to be able to think clearly
I want the blur gone from my vision
Clear me, free me, heal me
Liberate the calm the content
Cast out the blithering manic
For they have no place
I welcome the artistic mania
But this manic state is
is, is, is
harmful horrid hell
Out you demons of desire
and villains of...

This Day Today
This Day Today
I do but pray
for the power
to now flower
and the glory
to rid the world
of needless mori.
I shall not be stopped in this task
the power for which I here do ask
I shall heal the world
and do the impossible
your divine will upon earth
you who are above and below
your will shall here show.
And I shall steer us not from the dark
or from what we fear
but to where we can rise above
these ingrained conventions
and become better
by braving the weather.
This is what I ask for today

Today's special is death
Death and decay
are the dish
of the day.
Comes in many flavours
and it might do you
some favours.
Why cling to life
when your hearts
struck by a knife.
Welcome the eternal sleep
the unending daze
and count sheep.
For when you have a heart
to leave life is
just a start.
And if you have no heart
to pass away can't
tear you apart.
So eat up and be gone
to face the next bit
when you're done.
Its whatever you want
done little justice
in this font.

The Killer Despair
The Shadow Assassin
that strikes you
crawls under your skin
Everything should be
fine, you'd laugh
if only you could
Your soul is sick
and death could
not come so quick
Feelings fading
senses numb
self-degrading
The heart is gone
just putrid muscle
of a cold carrion
Nothing in your head
coldness, isolation
an empty lonelybed
discontent decay
nothing can be said
Everything's worthless today
you feel dark and dead
void is your heart
void is your life
devoid from the start
of your day in oblivion...

In the Poetic Kingdom
Will you come with me
on these travels
Inside, my mind, my heart
as it unravels.
Take note, take heart
there's plenty so
Like it or not
away we now go.
To visit the lands
of this mind
To see which or what
we can find.
Up and inside the
Tower of Rapture,
Where happiness stays
in blissful capture.
The Despair Dungeons
down below
Where the black heart
crawls to.
And of course the
Castle of Content
And its creative
rhyming couplet.

Why does love always break my heart?
Why does love, always break my heart?
When I am high
in the sky.
Maybe its me
And thats all to see
Unfortunately.
Why does love, always break my heart?
when I am free
and full of glee.
Maybe its me
And thats all to see
Eternally.
Why does love, always break my heart?
When I am bold
but now I am cold.
Maybe its me
And thats all to see
Supposedly.
Maybe its just me
Its all I can see.
Thats why love always breaks my heart.
