WHEN WE TRANSCEND MENTALLY
Even though sometimes things get confusing, as it slowly disengages the depth of your subconsciousness. Merely bringing those days of not being able to even see straight, or even think straight no matter how hard you try to escape from the madness and insanity. But yet beneath the deepness of your mind eyes, only you hold the key to unlocking the deepness within your spiritual subconsciousness. To escape from the madness and insanity that seems, to be nonsense of negativity eating away at your flesh and bones like flies to shit. So you ask thyself in honesty and truth, how can I escape from...

the ancient tomes
upon the morn, I rise
the spirits restless call me from my sleep
kiss the scepter
reconcile your greed and come to me
visions of dread
I speak energies
a wavelength you understand
a metaphor is the texts
coded in the ancient tongue
cults of misunderstanding wave the book
not knowing what they disturb
a hierarchy of knowledge compels me
to open the tomes once more
I take a look, mark a page
pronouncing there is little difference between a miracle and magic
conjure the day that...

Blocked -
my words
somehow
get lost
from my mind
to their
way out
into my world,
birthed
like a child
should be,
but I hold
these thoughts
inside,
letting them sleep
in my anguish,
they cry
the same tears
I am crying,
they taste
the same
bitterness
that I taste.

sacred vows
in the indigo silence, I scream
to find no one was listening
my understanding tripped out and blaring
but no one heard
in the infinite truth
so many lies and secrets
bend the faith
she will forget in time
lady justice isn't blind
she just pretends to be
inside the sacred vows
I feel a hollowness
will the covenant be kept?
I walk trepidatiously
fearing none
fearing all
I have just one chance
I will make it count
to find no one was listening
my understanding tripped out and blaring
but no one heard
in the infinite truth
so many lies and secrets
bend the faith
she will forget in time
lady justice isn't blind
she just pretends to be
inside the sacred vows
I feel a hollowness
will the covenant be kept?
I walk trepidatiously
fearing none

perspective
visions mixed with delusions
upon the karmic wheel I spin
with parables on my lips
a metaphor is the eternal void
it's great hunger will never be filled
I've awaken to the truth that there can be no perpetual state of perfect love
when created in the gods image
I know my idea of love is constantly shifting as I evolve
when I was a little girl I wanted to go to the golden kingdom when I die
I am dissatisfied with this vision these days
there will be no automatic great understanding
if it were possible there would be no need for...

a discovered worth of all things.
ethereal skin in exquisite
lavender shaded hues
velvet petal'd
securely found
within a layered curl
O' tightly
this bud is bound
rich in tantalizing
scented flare
whimsy in glisten, fair
ease and caution
a dichotomy of love
is spark'd
in a floral heart
never forgotten
a stare
of uniquely gaze
reflecting back a beautiful face
sensing of such pride
an unfurling in full grace
wishes upon dewy crowns
pierced by ardent thorns
as a proven beloved ...

Evensong...
Meet me at midnight, with honeyed wishes on your lips,
and sanguine rivers pulsing Elysian dreams throughout your veins.
Cradled in the ether, I'll be there waiting....
As I steal the sunshine from your kiss, I'll swirl nocturnes 'round your tongue, breathing fresh life and the psalms of my eternal love into your lungs.
With fingers laced like constellations,
lose yourself in my jewels of blue, as they pierce like shooting stars;
lighting the omniscient path to our place of ethereal affection.
Beneath my chest and ribs, I'll tuck the...

A Pittsburg Rare
I’ve always loved
Your way
of searing
me
to perfected pain,
charring me just right
leaving me
a little black
&
a little blue.
I also love the way
You bind
me
to
Your will...
and the way
You bruise.

the dawning
weeps the dawn who birth me
keening insurrection inside me turns
I look away in fear
I can not bear it
resounding betrayal becomes the violence
I am what I hate
fearful perfection awaiting at the garden gates
innocent child bride turns the key lost inside me for centuries
behold a parable
time himself stands watch
eons becoming more the woman I am
eternal need prophesies
it will be as it should be
alterations in course cause concern
I will not forsake the trust
truth born of pain will...

voodoo
occult understanding, witchcraft deadly
come pierce the veil
undo the damage done
a prick to the finger a single drop of blood
the moon testifies to the truth
he was here first
in the dark kingdom, there is no Queen
forsaken of body nightshade leads the way
atonement, thy will be done
voodoo of the soul
hexed and bedeviled I sit in silence
chained to the altar of sacrifice
awaiting the dagger
pure of spirit I keen
enter perdition with a knowing voice
call to the lonesome with an understanding...
