Legacy of the Phoenix
From deep within the wicked, wriggling weave.
And out the Lady’s unending web of gray.
There came a dying Mothers fading night, and a forgiving Father’s final Day.
‘Tween dusk and dawn the rivers far will
flow with virgin blood
A mighty horn shall sound, summoning all within our rule.
As we bow our heads, there came
Towering Beasts that keep, the dead ones’ brood.
A spawn Grotesquely born by only they, with tongues of two.
-Chanting in unison-
“Through hatred it will live and reign”

Rulena, Goddess of Darkness and Disruptions
Winter Queen and Dark Moon Oaths:
She brought more than disruption to the village of Fyrebend, a small town in the district of Kaladorei, in a new state added to the first 50 in the USA.

Beowulf Pt.2
I asked her what his name was, then dropped the silver on the floor screaming it
His mother burst into a hysterical laugh, hoping that she was dreaming it
I should had seen the resemblance, I should had been a better parent than my own
His mother is promising death to me and the guilt wont leave me alone
I buried Grendel among my gods, a boy without a father lead wayward
I should had been proud of his many conquest instead of listening to the naysayers
His mom constantly tries to bed me and asking if I want something to eat
In between her promise to...

Beowulf
I, I am Beowulf a God among men
Adventurer of a many exploits, my beginnings touches my ends
My existence began so far away, in the dark recesses of a country town
Across an ocean and hidden behind a mountain range, no more than a whelp when found
Offered to board a ship, to be fed while learning a trade
Thirty pieces of silver exchanged hands, my parents smiled and a deal was made
Carted off to the ship, the first I’d seen the ocean or been away from home
The hard work I was accustom, but enough to eat wasn’t the norm
I learned my duties...

Dido 2
English version:
I ruined my reputation
Made a foe out of Iarbas
Endangered my whole nation
All for my dearest Aenas
You talk of your duty
I betrayed my dead husband
You talk of your Italy
A not-yet existing land
Take all my power
Take all you can
So you have to leave?
Then face me like a man!
Speaking of the gods
Remember that day?
That day when fate
brought us up to that cave
Remember the torches
we held so tight

What’s Love Without Tragedy
Greek Mythology muse, Melpomene, holds lovers’ hearts in the palm of her hand
Asunder from the woman’s heart she dangles the man
The mask and knife, searches for lovers across the vast land
Slaying erected castles made of sand
To thy love a whisper in secrecy, discerning eyes must decide
You can’t run, I can’t hide
Souls encased in a time capsule continue to gently coincide
Passion, felt to the heart so sweet
Mind thinning, days upon my skin feels bleak
Against the wind take my hand
Console the...

Shirith'nar's Pleasure
- Shirith'nar's Pleasure -
Pale blue as like an azure jewel, her flesh enhanced with cybernetics...
Eyes glowing with the light from electric vibrancy, with a lust for life!
Unlike those who had created the form she wore like some do raiment,
She was a freer spirit, with inclinations far beyond the mind to ponder.
The product of cloning and mechanical engineering, a perfect creation,
Eve was never so fair, nor so imaginative and sometimes so very sick...
With passion's fever, stirring her on, to use her wiles in cause of strife.
Hedonistic in her...

Reminiscing On The Past
Sometimes I come back to this island
And reminisce on the past
Walking through the forest I once called home
I used to take strolls here-much like this-
Amidst all the beautiful plants and tall trees
Hearing the sounds of creatures scurrying out of sight
I’m reminded of all I’ve left behind
A small part of me wonders
What would my life be like if I stayed on this island?
I walk on, deeper into the forest
And I take in my surroundings
A mix of light and dark greens
Vines strewn everywhere
A slight breeze...

Yspirfal
Yspirfal”
Yspirfal across the sky
Awake now with a loving light
For I have summoned thee with song
And I have shaped thee to belong
In facets of eternal night
Where alor hath made the dim seem bright
Hyspirfael there beams a ray
Of vesper’s splendoring refrain
Shards of silver and silver rain
Shed on seas of silver fame
North and from the northmost sea
A mistless lute borne to thee
A ray, a glimmer, and a dream
To shape an endless harmony
Yspirfal and Hyspirfael
Upon the dawning of the world
To ring and...

distant clang
metallic bells
foreboding coming shapes
propelled beyond
weakening prismatics
of hell
waxing rusted horizon
chariots of cloud

Midnight Ravens
Behold the flight of Midnight Ravens
From cardinal winds they came
Earth-bound by their course
Return to sacred space once again
Graceful in their descent
Wings outstretched with darkness laden
Passing under rustic clouds
Feathers turn into Midnight Maidens
Entering in to the soul of the wood
And performing their hidden office
Five points drawn now the access
To their otherworld place of promise
they are the watchers
they are the keepers
above and below gate...
