Long Ago
The dark castle in the deep forest
A princess is resurrected
During the second birth
The last battle of possession
Cosmic keys to the creation of earth.

In the Crow's Nest
Far out at sea in the middle of the night
Under the moonlight the waves are calm
The ship rocks back and forth, up and down
As the lookout watches from the Crow’s Nest
All the seamen are asleep below deck
Except for the lookout in the Crow’s Nest
Watching the horizon, looking for land
As the ship bobs up and down at high sea
And the lookout perched on the Crow’s Nest
Tired from the long days out at sea sees a thing
But it’s not a whale or any other known creature
It’s something bigger than the entire ship ...
Under the moonlight the waves are calm
The ship rocks back and forth, up and down
As the lookout watches from the Crow’s Nest
All the seamen are asleep below deck
Except for the lookout in the Crow’s Nest

As the ship bobs up and down at high sea
And the lookout perched on the Crow’s Nest
Tired from the long days out at sea sees a thing
But it’s not a whale or any other known creature
It’s something bigger than the entire ship ...

the silent times
Odin rains widom on the faithless
stirring Loki blood oath brother over mischief
the stars fell from the skies becoming mortal
in the silent times I feel them
with great travail they are brought forth--
called from the four corners of the Earth
summoned from the spaces they play
Mother of the universes soothes the beast
under the cover of darkness they work
loyal to a cause, rebellious in nature
there is solidarity in my black heart
chief among your horde is my coveted lover
I shall shake all foundations...

MY MUSE RESURRECTED ME
My heart was bound
in chains feeling the
pains of losing you.
The attention given
by others didn't heal;
only served as a reminder.
Offers of endless pleasure
by the Nymphs on Erotic
shorelines were futile..
THEN!
OH THEN!
CLIO, the daughter
of Zeus, the
Muse of History; one
of the nine Muses,
came to me in a vision
and beautiful poetry;
with a message of hope..
I came alive as she rang
my doorbell. OMG! MY
Muse resurrected me back
to erotic adventures never
dreamed of. I bow daily...

Descendants
It's Lord of the waters
driftwood, earth
and we ourselves
65 percent plus
Its history is thick
with visions of fire and smoke
flared nostrils and tail
curled as a tendril of hair
ready to whip
yet, it's nature is benevolent
Created from a camel’s head
a deer’s horns
and a demon’s eyes
A bull’s ears
a snake’s neck
and a clam’s belly
A carp’s scales,
an eagle’s claws
and a tiger’s paws
quilted together to create
the Deity that is Dragon ...

EROTIC CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN DAPHNE AND APOLLO
Wrote Daphne to Apollo:
'Your pearl stream I could swallow,
in exchange my elixir
I offer to your lick, sir.'
Wrote Apollo to Daphne:
'Then haste to kneel before me,
I'll allow Divine pleasure
unlock to you my treasure.'
'For princely orbs and sceptre
your lips make good receptor.
It would be like a blessing
to have your tongue's caressing.'
'The finest ambrosia
I'm sure could not come near
the taste of divine honey
that would run from your cunni.'
Wrote Daphne, ever...

Hunter's Moon (Featuring Naajir)
it's the growl of a beast on the prowl
pulled from deep slumber
by desperate hunger
face lifted
eyes closed
easing leisurely from its hidden lair
drawn by instinct
scent of prey in the air
moving on silent feet
hunting the sensed
tracking the unseen
aggression leads
down a winding trail
through ethereal woodlands
as beads of sweat
flows in silent patterns
the animus is
ultra-felt as kindred
extraverted through thickened adrenaline
razor sharpening intuition
panting a nostalgic...

Old Gods Laugh
where the ancient gods repose
there, too, Brigid resides
to dream away forgotten
by those who once presides
on altar with corn husk dolls
mystic powers now contained
within the knowledge of a time
when Brigid proud and divine
shines over poets quills
pen beauty of life's layers
Brigid's acolytes ever staunch
ambrace the air sniff for spring
while candles, milk and flowers
faithfully adorn the altar
reverence curtsied and bowed
the mystical ancient essence
every women's reflection of divinity...

Canonical Hours
So often sought in twilit skies
are the arcane secrets there
when that luminous flux applies
to the billow surge it must share
with lunar lumens at their peak
and stars and planets in the mix
to play a cloudy hide and seek
as if a writhing bag of tricks
ruled the moonrise roost of beams
in threshold vermicelli waves
overlapping cumulous streams
cascading through the freshest graves
to squirm in some composting meat
long past the matins on repeat
for martyrdom at every turn,
in undercroft...or welkin churn!

The Space Beyond The Clouds
The Space Between The Words
Those blue spires within blue clouds
where winged angels roam the heavens
and between the gaping void of the cliffs
the winds blow an eolian anthem
and the cosmic eternal whole lays his hand.
the rocky tips challenging the deep firmament
sending their muted calls to space, beyond..
and down on earth, wanders a sylvan spirit
between the aging trees, a murmur is heard
the forest whispers a spotless, timeless tune
of ghouls and of the past lore of the true world
a cavern...

Destiny
Fallen Angels building a ladder
Rungs tied on with tears and blood splatter
Singing while working a Siren’s song
Pulling the innocent from right and wrong
Cerberus is nipping at their heals to move the herd
Hela wants to sing, but forgot the words
Medusa’s cracking a whip to speed things up
Sisyphus has depression and he’s in a rut
Persephone lied with Prometheus to create a spark
Hades found out and Prometheus was caught
Body splayed and strapped to a rock
As I IS ME the vulture tears at his heart
Gabriel is on...
