POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
my ink comes from the heart and sometimes a dark mind
Farewell Mistress
farewell deepunderground
a band of sacred misfits tightly bound
With magic, we did cast
Fate threw us to the winds
And we wander the abyss
The Mistress of Shadows
said a spell created a shelter for us to dwell
conjuring us from the world
We gathered here, and a circle formed
We dwell in the land of mists
a place we could finally be ourselves
a sanctuary of the soul
Teaching the art of poetry
Our forgotten language
to each newcomer as they enter
The Mistress guards us from anything...

grieve
swirling eyes drink from me, watching me grieve
vampires of the horde channeling instinct
their spikes in tune with the weaker vessels
Their glow differs from the stronger ones
Prowling the night, the monsters entertain dopplegangers
They hunt not for blood but the soul
Animated Minions, they ride the night
Looking through a thousand eyes
manifesting more than one place at once
stealing glances from a gentle lass
They zero in on vulnerability
unattended and a young teen
out there running amok ...

nth level of hell
freaking groovy trip intoxicating my mind
Psycho Cosminaught wielding his creations through the cosmos
Celestial beings light years away recognize him
His driving beats turn to lust
with sounds the likes I've never known
screaming desire passion cums
building the orgasmic pressure
penetrates my vulnerability
leaving seeds of destruction
conjuring my inner Mistress
rising from the nth level of hell
Hell approves of our connection
deep in the illumination, I come into an understanding
A Rock God tempts and persuades ...

The Witch of Endor
Here we go casting on the winds
fits of ego dine
tiny understanding in the haze
a maze of words astound
falling on the mind heavy
Words of power persuade
expletives of faith
linger in my thoughts
pursuing me in my inner sanctum
conjuring truth, I ask
With halted need, I request
Reveal yourself in the abyss, we have met
Tinder for the fire
burning with greedy lust
pages turn while I gaze
In the book of Nod it is written
witches are coveted
Don't show yourself
cover your mind ...

Legion
mournful midnight moon glowing in my mind
nighttime's glory to see me flayed open
lewdly on display
The demons pick my thoughts
heckling my gentleness
until they summon the Mistress in me
the Vixen bitch who lays it out
These are my men, this is how they show love
They razz me about my pain
until I'm mad, then they wait for me to swing
Vicious when provoked, they are the horde
They covet my affection
My father says
Get my men at attention
It's time to inspect them
My dark Father wants me to...

Deja Vu
dreaming in sadness
My soul seeks yours in the madness
You've altered me
never the same, you touched me deep within
caressing the feelings, I touch them fondly
They are my touchstones
With new beginnings and some goodbyes
I'll see you later somewhere in the universes
Our souls are tied, tethered to each other
United then sent seeking
You will always find me in my thoughts
And I will find you in my memories
You'll think of me and grieve
not understanding your sorrow
just a feeling that something is missing...

Our souls are tied, tethered to each other

You will always find me in my thoughts
And I will find you in my memories
You'll think of me and grieve
not understanding your sorrow
just a feeling that something is missing...

the in-between
It's the in-between that worries me
a place of limbo, of nothing but reflection
holding tight to memories
lest they slip through my fingers
delicate as flower petals
pressed in a keepsake book are my thoughts of you
Each soul I've come across has become a part of me
altering my course and enlightening me
Regret is a strange emotion
because the hurt was somehow necessary
As a baby tree, it only gets stronger when it is wind-blown
my carelessness is corrected with love of the universe

winding
Walking down that long road
I'm going nowhere
In such a hurry to end up empty
The unfulfilled path
lonely and winding
always winds up where you are
In my solemn seek
for things I can't have
interpreting silence for meaning
headed out on the next dark train
Riding is the best
until the destination fails to amuse
cry tears of grief for the voided journey
You could have taken
Relax at the rest stops
and talk to whom you're supposed to meet
On the road of discovery
I'm going nowhere
In such a hurry to end up empty
The unfulfilled path
lonely and winding
always winds up where you are
In my solemn seek
for things I can't have
interpreting silence for meaning
headed out on the next dark train
Riding is the best
until the destination fails to amuse
cry tears of grief for the voided journey

and talk to whom you're supposed to meet

lookingglass
shatters the silence within
speaking my truths
In honesty, I love hard
But love burns and aches
rending one in two
scattered pieces to the wind
gathered in the deep end of my soul
putting each piece back carefully
With attention to detail
my darkness will not win
My shadows cast are my sanctuary
Love alters and makes you hurt
internal strife, wondering if I'm good enough
I'm uncomfortable when people say I'm beautiful
because I don't see it
Belief is a powerful thing
Breaking hearts is...

penetrate
tasting freedom in the altered states
With little memory of what I am supposed to be
Instead, fully aware of what I am
caressing the fullness of the moment
my vulnerability open
My thoughts penetrate
people look away, knowing I see
deep into the pit where they reside
puppeting their costumes
a masquerade of otherworldly beings
With little memory of what I am supposed to be
Instead, fully aware of what I am
caressing the fullness of the moment
my vulnerability open
My thoughts penetrate

outcast
Dark depression utters a solemn song for my soul
Honey, you're not liked
No, not at all
With a quiet refrain, I respond
gullible understanding is to be known
Within me, playing for a crowd of one
a lonesome melody of pain
With regrets, I don't fit
Somehow, my sorrow is all too evident
People can sense it in me
weeping notes of despair
It's better off when you're not there
keening to the angels and devils
Sonnets of rust, even they grow weary
picked from my vine vulnerability
Inside, I lament, I...

strangle the need
Down in the hollers, darkness abides
quicken the screams, let them bleed with need
Their moans hold secrets, groaning in protest
Then the body betrays with pulsing energy
discern the moment
Religious baptism of horror
holds a rite thinks it knows my name
bloodletting epiphany rapes the mind
Chaos ensues, and the ritual begins
Say the words
My essence spells on the air
chanting my incantations
throw the bones I'm commanded
Sinsiter's need is waiting
a magic man, a metal man
