TO GRACE
TO GRACE
I apologize, my dear Grace
My name and face are disgraced
My mind and heart and soul displaced
forever together alone in this place
I apologize, my dear Grace
My name and face are disgraced
My mind and heart and soul displaced

NO TEARS FOR YOU
NO TEARS FOR YOU
I failed to witness the incident
I heard it full fury
The motorcycle raced
through the intersection
weaving and believing
that they were immortal
Roaring engines screamed
through eternity
before the awkward stutter of brakes
slowly rumbling and stumbling down
within it's quirky growl of slowing assessment
ending with a clap of thunder
creating a motorcycle finally through
mixed with a mangled man
without fears, reckless and true
NO TEARS FOR YOU

THE SIRENS HOWLED
THE SIRENS HOWLED
I heard them slipping through the gate.
I awoke with a clenched fist. Frost enduring.
The door was slid opened with a swift thud
as my fist hit frozen meat...repeat...
repeat.....repeat.....

HONEYCOMB IN MY HEAD
HONEYCOMB IN MY HEAD
The father set the seeds of now said
bred to feed the larvae
so that one day they shall grow and hunt
for the harvest of those grown after them
Immortal while eternally lying dead
within the honeycomb in my head
The father set the seeds of now said
bred to feed the larvae
so that one day they shall grow and hunt
for the harvest of those grown after them
Immortal while eternally lying dead
within the honeycomb in my head

THE COLOR OF MAGICK
THE COLOR OF MAGICK
I gaze upon the black opal....
amazed in this phase of lucid haze
Speckles of violet vibrating vibrantly
dancing with flickers of red in my head
while glimmers of true Blue survived and arrived
seen dancing on the scene with the green queen
within sunset, unforbidden color hollers
without orange-ridden solar collars
beaming while dreaming, soon to be dead
Immortal in memories forever fed
by the new sun, golden and seemingly dreaming
upon translucent skies with lucid eyes seeing
rainbows shattered and...
I gaze upon the black opal....

The Queen spoke to me
She shuffled side to side upon the coffee table
early in the afternoon outside as I smoked a cigarette
A queen ant with wings searching for a mate
seeking to create a hive as I sought to be alive
I spoke to her
She listened to my words
She danced before me
I commented upon her beauty
She inched closer towards me.
she walked along the edge of the table
She flew onto my knee, then lost
I told her destiny
That will never be
early in the afternoon outside as I smoked a cigarette
A queen ant with wings searching for a mate
seeking to create a hive as I sought to be alive
I spoke to her
She listened to my words
She danced before me
I commented upon her beauty
She inched closer towards me.
she walked along the edge of the table
She flew onto my knee, then lost
I told her destiny
That will never be

THE REALITY SPHERE
THE REALITY SPHERE
Everyone has their own perception of reality
None of their views have anything to do
with what is truly going on within the construction
of the whirlwind whirl of the world wrapping
around itself as Sin sang dancing within a constant
embrace within a never ending unbending
twirl of perfection and disgrace
"The sin of angels sang!!!!!!!"
as light and darkness swam through the Yin Yang
No fear here as we keep
spinning the reality sphere
(REALITY SPHERE)
(REALITIE'S FEAR)
(REALITEI'S HERE) ...

WE DUG A HOLE
WE DUG A HOLE
(collaboration between Nostalgic_hue Alienist and Archie23)
remember, remember
the dance of spring
the rooms are littered in scarlet
our minds were dragged into the abyssal darkness
in summer
we dug a hole
and filled it with six bodies
each for every heartbreak the world owed me
Autumn brought
new falling lessons taught
cold breeze now echoing in thought
forever tormented by lies within true love sought
Winter freeze
unforgotten ground and...

THE NEXT GAME
I SLAUGHTERED THE XX
I won this contest
There were billions of us
and we all knew that one
out of all of us would win
THE PRIZE
Only one would survive
Only one would penetrate
the sturdy wall
surrounding the princess
Only one
And we knew that if she
did not find a mate
that she would fall in bloody rain
Emptiness
Time for pain
I fought hard against my competitors
I swam fast, as did she
XX, attempting to merge with the prize
I did not harm her, I simply worked harder ...

RAVEN DREAM LONGING
RAVEN DREAM LONGING
I search and I search
within the church
inner haven, a raven
hidden amongst the grackles
amongst cackles within longing
within a dream of belonging
I search and I search
within the church
inner haven, a raven
hidden amongst the grackles
amongst cackles within longing
within a dream of belonging

Leaves in fluttering sunlight
LEAVES IN FLUTTERING SUNLIGHT
I see them only out
of the corner of my eye
like falling leaves flying back
to the limbs
waiting
so shy
so patiently
to flutter down again
for a speck of bread
and a drink of water
from the crystal dish
dancing in joy before me
in a sparrow spectacle
which only some eyes can see
I see them only out
of the corner of my eye
like falling leaves flying back
to the limbs
waiting
so shy
so patiently
to flutter down again
for a speck of bread
and a drink of water
from the crystal dish
dancing in joy before me
in a sparrow spectacle
which only some eyes can see
