The Storm Outside & Inside
The rain tickles the windows.
Like the stroking of a witches broom.
Scratching & clawing while i sat.
Contemplation like St Jerome.
The sound became a lashing.
Wind grew into a fierce howling.
Somehow it got inside my head.
Whistling about my chimmley pots.
Gusts & noise rose to a fever pitch.
I thought I was going insane.
It's only the wind and the rain.
I'm warm and safe indoors.
I wake up several time a night.
I sense This raging storm wind howling.
Each and every awaking.
Time is slowing down...
Like the stroking of a witches broom.
Scratching & clawing while i sat.
Contemplation like St Jerome.
The sound became a lashing.
Wind grew into a fierce howling.
Somehow it got inside my head.
Whistling about my chimmley pots.
Gusts & noise rose to a fever pitch.
I thought I was going insane.
It's only the wind and the rain.
I'm warm and safe indoors.
I wake up several time a night.
I sense This raging storm wind howling.
Each and every awaking.
Time is slowing down...

A Cat Lives There
Tucked away on a cobblestone alley in the city's oldest quarter
a bookshop behind a leviathan of tall hedges.
it's a bookshop because a cat lives there
A labyrinth of desires whispering secrets in grimoire and tomes
where pages whispered and scented candles remained mum
behind velvet red curtains of curiosity
"I put a spell on you because you're mine
the Dark's Courtesan on a Carousel
because you're mine"
Bound in innuendoes of forbidden lecture
in an obscure tongue and fetish
of depravity
...
a bookshop behind a leviathan of tall hedges.
it's a bookshop because a cat lives there
A labyrinth of desires whispering secrets in grimoire and tomes
where pages whispered and scented candles remained mum
behind velvet red curtains of curiosity
"I put a spell on you because you're mine
the Dark's Courtesan on a Carousel
because you're mine"
Bound in innuendoes of forbidden lecture

Cabin Pressure
Snow settles on the roof top
Snuggled in as more snow drops
The pantry filled as wood was chopped
A hound dreams of shiny boots and riding crops
The chase is on for raccoon or fox
A silent cat watches as it's milk is sop
Lapping away at it's milk as the fire hiss and pop
Watching as the sleeping dog whined giving chase nonstop
As the air is warm and smells of hickory
Dreams are being dreamt part fantasy and part memory
Here and there a nightmare sneaks in with care
Forcing bodies to snuggle closer with a need to suddenly...
Snuggled in as more snow drops
The pantry filled as wood was chopped
A hound dreams of shiny boots and riding crops
The chase is on for raccoon or fox
A silent cat watches as it's milk is sop
Lapping away at it's milk as the fire hiss and pop
Watching as the sleeping dog whined giving chase nonstop
As the air is warm and smells of hickory
Dreams are being dreamt part fantasy and part memory
Here and there a nightmare sneaks in with care
Forcing bodies to snuggle closer with a need to suddenly...

Nullity knows my Name.....
I am weightless,
adrift in a silence so deep
it no longer feels like silence at all.
It is a hum, a whisper, a presence—
something ancient, something endless,
something that knows me too well.
I think it has always been here,
waiting beneath my skin,
behind my eyes,
in the spaces where feeling
used to live.
I do not hurt.
I do not ache.
I am nothing.
And the nothingness knows it.
It watches,
folding itself around me,
pulling me deeper,
closer,
until I cannot tell
where I...
adrift in a silence so deep
it no longer feels like silence at all.
It is a hum, a whisper, a presence—
something ancient, something endless,
something that knows me too well.
I think it has always been here,
waiting beneath my skin,
behind my eyes,
in the spaces where feeling
used to live.
I do not hurt.
I do not ache.
I am nothing.
And the nothingness knows it.

folding itself around me,
pulling me deeper,

take this sadness
intro]
Take this sadness
and turn it into silence
[Verse 1]
I bleed with it
a sadness so deep
it could hold the ocean
(Don't silence me
don't silence me
can anybody hear me?)
And you
you give me what I don't need
so tie me down
and throw me into the depths of it
where no one can hear me cry
[Chorus]
Take this sadness
take this sadness
and turn it into silence
(No one is listening anyway)
(Is there anybody left...
Take this sadness
and turn it into silence
[Verse 1]
I bleed with it
a sadness so deep
it could hold the ocean
(Don't silence me
don't silence me
can anybody hear me?)
And you
you give me what I don't need
so tie me down
and throw me into the depths of it
where no one can hear me cry
[Chorus]
Take this sadness
take this sadness
and turn it into silence
(No one is listening anyway)

Absentia
Naked corpses crawling out from the walls, giving me an eye
in absentia of life with an attitude needing an adjustment
Perhaps it was my double hernia picking a fine time to levy
a squeal, dripping the marrow's sorghum from their bones
Humoring my appetite in silent quarters of my mind's insanity
snapping their narcistic flower of the cunt's rigor mortis
As I pull out a plum, thinking what a good boy I am needing
an adjustment...perhaps a lobotomy in absentia with no
sympathy for the falling anvil
in absentia of life with an attitude needing an adjustment
Perhaps it was my double hernia picking a fine time to levy
a squeal, dripping the marrow's sorghum from their bones
Humoring my appetite in silent quarters of my mind's insanity
snapping their narcistic flower of the cunt's rigor mortis
As I pull out a plum, thinking what a good boy I am needing
an adjustment...perhaps a lobotomy in absentia with no
sympathy for the falling anvil

Sincerely
Sincerely, insanity...
And debaucheries artifacts
riding shotgun
in the sanctum of amnesia
without anecdotes
distilled memories
of a martini and broken heart
listening to your pulse
scream for an olive
riding shotgun...
Sincerely, insanity
And debaucheries artifacts
riding shotgun
in the sanctum of amnesia
without anecdotes
distilled memories

An Unspoken Truth
Reflecting on the toxic relationship I was in earlier this year, there's a profound truth that I have learned. A truth that's unseen. Unspoken. The forbidden truth. The truth that inconveniences men who don't get a lot of women. It is this very truth that shakes me to my core. Fear. So much fear around it.
As a woman with a more positive aura than the man I was with and who was an easy magnet for men, I knew from the beginning that I felt uncomfortable. But as usual, I ignored that feeling.
He was one of those nice guys who said all the right words, but his actions...

Seeds of Insanity
Returning to embers of my epitome
dripping the seeds of insanity
Embracing rapture's soothing death
life's dissertation of my deportation
Strangling my quill's stained tongue
with the seeds of insanity crumbs
Returning to embers of my epitome
dripping the seeds of insanity
Embracing rapture's soothing death
life's dissertation of my deportation
Strangling my quill's stained tongue
with the seeds of insanity crumbs
Returning to embers of my epitome

This Feeling
I...
am a ghost,
inhabiting these brittle bones,
wearing a suit of armour made from flesh and skin,
though it's not much good as armour.
Doesn't stop the bullets that shoot from tongues around you,
and it does naught to protect the mind.
Spinning clockwise in a counter-clockwise world around me?
That's me.
I'm lost,
somewhere between point A and point B I slip into non-existence.
I glide through a crowd like a shadow,
unnoticed,
unacknowledged.
I am the sum of all the shards of my shattered...

Grey
In the midst of all this grey
I'm growing colder every day
Feeling smaller than before
Don't know what I'm living for
I am lost in endless crowd
Never seen and never found
Nameless face in joyless place
Just a body taking space
Innocence has taken flight
Along with all I thought was right
I am losing sight of light
Lose myself in endless night
Robbed of comfort, stolen truth
Memory scrambled and confused
Forgotten love from long ago
You'll forget me too, I know
Life is pain and death's...
I'm growing colder every day
Feeling smaller than before
Don't know what I'm living for
I am lost in endless crowd
Never seen and never found
Nameless face in joyless place
Just a body taking space
Innocence has taken flight
Along with all I thought was right
I am losing sight of light
Lose myself in endless night
Robbed of comfort, stolen truth
Memory scrambled and confused
Forgotten love from long ago
You'll forget me too, I know
Life is pain and death's...
