Hi, we've met before
But you always look confused
You used to call me late at night
But now you blink too much when you talk
Feeling a little jealous and overstimulated
But you like that; cute and deranged
A little hot in here
But your hands are cold
Liar! Liar! Liar!
These hands could start a fire!
I think they might, I think they might
Hi, we've met before
But you don't believe in deja vu
Keep wondering how I...

Hallucinogenic discoveries of perception and crescent moon desire
Torrid outlines
travel
medium to mountain high
intertwining shapes,
curvature of edges
pigments pop
where lustre births into awe
streaming asymmetrical allure
heavenly swaths
crease and fold
delineate every line
and smallest mark
patterns outlining perfection
Dreams temper themselves upon
participle and adjective;
kaleidoscopic kinesis-
from the ashes, rise and roar
masters, makers, lovers, thieves
culminating breaths,
frequencies incense intimacy

Cheetahs Chasing Pale Zebras
Across the forehead of my mind
cheetahs chasing pale zebras
Twinkle twinkle white dwarfs
twilight dying a thousand tides
Beneath the moon's concubine
in deep tides and wastelands
Whispering winter's cold poultice
cheetahs chasing pale zebras
cheetahs chasing pale zebras
Twinkle twinkle white dwarfs
twilight dying a thousand tides
Beneath the moon's concubine
in deep tides and wastelands
Whispering winter's cold poultice
cheetahs chasing pale zebras

The Mandrake Dragon
Took my imagination, out for a stroll
Like a demonically possessed young child's doll
Came across some mead, filled up in a flagon
Twas there i encountered, the Mandrake Dragon
It flapped its wings, And blew its flames at me
It shrieked as loud, as a screaming Banjee
Instead of claws, it had flailing flowers
Poisonous to the touch, with teeth to devour
Ghostlike in appearance, like an evil Manitou
As down from the darkened skies it flew
Its eyes were a deep fearsome firey red
And a roar so loud, to awaken the dead
I...

whisper moon
Oh whisper moon
Don't let me feel like this again
Tonight you owe me an explanation
I made my bed the right way.
Finally an old expression
To ease the pain of waiting
If all I want is a little bit of space to breathe
Then how does that make me what they say I was in the fucking first place?
Oh whisper moon
Don't let me break my legs on the fall
Ive dropped
Down low into the Brambles
whoa
The less I know the better I say
Peace to the monsters under
My bed
I stay safe in the middle of the...

Whispers in the Dark
I stilled my mind and drifted into another realm
When I awoke, I was greeted by flowers and elm
The lady bird sang a wonderful tune
On the water rang a lovely loon
I strolled through the wooded glade
Suddenly, not a sound was made
The sun began to set, and my heart was starting to fret
A sinking feeling told me I had been drawn into a devilish debt
Darkness encompassed me
Whispers hissed, as mist came to my knee
Dreadful requests did they ask
Each more horrid than a blood filled cask

Zee empty heavyweight
Tongue picking, suffocating emptiness,be ready to replace
love with hate.
Better,hate with love and back again.
For a while,mixed.
A conjunction of favourable devilry,
"The Weird Sisters," The Wayward Sisters,"
who leads the lead protagonist,to his untimely death.
A striking resemblances to, "that character,
that no thespian wishes to repeat.".
That greedy ambitious reprobate,ill-equpped
for the otherworldly...
love with hate.
Better,hate with love and back again.
For a while,mixed.
A conjunction of favourable devilry,
"The Weird Sisters," The Wayward Sisters,"
who leads the lead protagonist,to his untimely death.
A striking resemblances to, "that character,

grotto
Drown me
slowly
in the
grotto
off the ravine
behind the river
patiently streaming into
an outlet wave of
seabreeze
Let my knees
bend inward
and my heels
click
audibly
The sirens calling
I can't
seem to see
where she reaches out
and grabs me
She's pulling me in
Out by the spot where we all
swam
and smoked as kids
Tossing and turning
slowly
in the
grotto
off the ravine
behind the river
patiently streaming into
an outlet wave of
seabreeze
Let my knees
bend inward
and my heels
click
audibly
The sirens calling
I can't
seem to see
where she reaches out
and grabs me
She's pulling me in
Out by the spot where we all
swam
and smoked as kids
Tossing and turning

Waking Nightmare
Sleeping peacefully
Napping
Needing to re-energize
Happy I could take this time
When suddenly
Half asleep
I think
This pressure on top
Presses down upon me
On my very being
Whispering
Indistinct whispers
And deep growls
An Incubus perhaps???
Moaning in my ear
I hear
Panick arising
Not understanding
Frozen in fear
Until finally...
I wake fully...
Was it just a dream??
Or just a waking nightmare?
Napping
Needing to re-energize
Happy I could take this time

Half asleep

An Incubus perhaps???
Moaning in my ear

In My Nightmare Your Dream Came True
I had a dream I was laying in a bed of roses
In a field by the town with a pocket full of posies
You were climbing up to the top of the bell tower
You said you wanted a view that would be higher
I saw you up on the belfry through a window
Sweet smell of spring, and the wind brushed the leaves of the willow
You called to me and waved before you jumped
And as you fell in slow-mo my heart sort of stopped
In my nightmare she died
In my nightmare I cried
In my nightmare the roses become redder
That’s my nightmare but I’ll...

And as you fell in slow-mo my heart sort of stopped

Innuendo
Innuendo
I am...
A bohemian soul
Wandering through
The darkest cavern
of your muted thoughts
Playfully dancing
To your every desire
To lure you...
into your own death
Like a leprechaun
waiting to collect your soul
He is...
An abandoned spirit
Walking amongst
the concealed pretension
of worshipping flesh
Where every vile thoughts comes with a
blasphemous hypocrisy
Misleading every soul
Like a ghoul on the lose
Waiting for a chance
to devour you whole
...
