Stillicide
On the day the UK drowned
the sun’s shoulders broke,
slumping the sunset into eternal twilight
All one underwater breath,
deep sea divers tried to pack
the sea into suitcases
Baggage bridled waves
o’er castles and housing estates,
stealth, the ravens skyfall
legends written on drowned pirates’ skulls,
(full fathom) five brides on continental shelf
coral and pearls are merely crust on sunken ships
travelling light
can life rafts only hold one soul?
stowed in hearth of jigsaw’ed city
flames cripple...
the sun’s shoulders broke,
slumping the sunset into eternal twilight
All one underwater breath,
deep sea divers tried to pack
the sea into suitcases
Baggage bridled waves
o’er castles and housing estates,
stealth, the ravens skyfall
legends written on drowned pirates’ skulls,
(full fathom) five brides on continental shelf
coral and pearls are merely crust on sunken ships
travelling light
can life rafts only hold one soul?
stowed in hearth of jigsaw’ed city
flames cripple...

Waking from a Dream
Waking from a Dream
The feeling
Arises
That everyone
Knows,
Only you
Are still
Stuck
In your dream.
What was
The meaning
Of every new
Nuance,
Is there
Nothing
That's just
As it seems?
You try
To awaken
And shake
Slowly to fury,
But
The fingers
Can't feel
All the same.
And every
Occassion
They smile
In their knowing,
While
Nodding
But avoiding
The game.
It's only
You ...
The feeling
Arises
That everyone
Knows,
Only you
Are still
Stuck
In your dream.
What was
The meaning
Of every new
Nuance,
Is there
Nothing
That's just
As it seems?
You try
To awaken
And shake
Slowly to fury,
But
The fingers
Can't feel
All the same.
And every
Occassion
They smile
In their knowing,
While
Nodding
But avoiding
The game.
It's only
You ...

alien game
dangerous company;
cadaver explosion.
hide down low.
rotten ruin, despise us.
stop chaos; burn anguish instead.
can a hostile world
assume knowledge;
promise more?
delight is our treasure box
or wish to attain
elaborate power revolt.
high chemical charge,
evolve heat.
require art.
go robustly;
apply influence;
forge spirit today.
cadaver explosion.
hide down low.
rotten ruin, despise us.
stop chaos; burn anguish instead.

The All Seeing Eye
Within the shadows still more questions lurk.
Just what did that infra-red sensor see?
Was it some demon of the id at work
Or a shade split from it's mortality,
Creeping in with a fresh maritime mist
Seeking revenge for ancient offences
Or longing for some prehistoric tryst
To reawaken it's long dead senses?
Mark it, THERE, moving by the patients bed
A vague form of certain locomotion
Shifting through death and past the optic sped
Beyond the eyeballs ocular ocean.
Oh what could be more strange and scary
Then the...
