After That Certain Bomb Was Dropped
After that certain
bomb was dropped down on Japan's
own Hiroshima,
the blast produced a deadly
mushroom cloud killing millions.

For Jane Schaberg
Mary,
only fourteen now
but done in by Imperium.
Panthera’s seed was planted well
against your will
and now, to your regret, you know
you're swelling with his bastard spawn.
Do you, I wonder, rage against your god
who lets such things occur?
Do you demur?
Assume the blame
for your forced adultery?
Have you thought how Joseph,
expecting so to bring you undefiled into his home,
will be fraught and darkly shamed
when he comes to know
how much you’re stained,
so...

Retracted Confession
You set the house on fire
Since you’ve been gone
My head’s been lighter
I don’t miss you
You’re a fucking liar
I can finally breathe now
You’re not around
I thought you could be there for me
But you can’t even take care of yourself
Maybe we both need help
You’re coming home in few days
I don’t want to see you
You know to many things
I told you all my secrets
When you were away
Because I didn’t have to deal
With seeing your face
Why can’t you just stay
With...

tell me this?
why would you wait
on life while flowers
are burning in agony

are burning in agony

Our party came with drunken favors
I saw you at the party & lost you in the crowd
Drinks in our system made the advances undeniable
Eye contact a few times made the games begin
You seen the attempts & gave reason to continue
In inebriated states of mind we saw only each with the same Intentions
Friends on both sides saw this & tried to pivot our moments
You partied your body to exhaustion & you were safe
I parted your body to relax & be when you came too
(The body party we both enjoyed)
Drinks in our system made the advances undeniable

You partied your body to exhaustion & you were safe
I parted your body to relax & be when you came too

Detach
I latched now it’s time for me to detach,
Tempting faith, it doesn’t feel so safe no more.
The saying rings true take it from me
I’m sure of it, I’ve felt the reaction to all my actions.
If I just obey from now on I won’t have to pay.

As She Walks In
As she walks in,
i would’ve tasted the fragrant ambrosia,
she’s like an alluring beauty from Polynesia,
I could’ve admired her in awe, yet I was looking away after the first glance,
sense of ravenous nature, yet the innocence left me in trance,
I should’ve embraced her elegance tightly in my arms,
but it’s her honestly of life, beds of thorny roses that was the alarms!
As she walks in,
I would’ve danced with her, I’m the devil in the pale moonlight,
swaying away gently, holding her tightly, through the night,
I could’ve charmed her, with...

Otherworldly Memories Part V: The Two Kingdoms
- Otherworldly Memories Part V: The Two Kingdoms -
The years passed swiftly following the advent of my transformation, a thing that became over time, to me both spiritual as well as physical. I began to practice with and hone better the use of my enhanced third eye, and the mechanical augmentations felt for the most part as natural as my biological attributes. During certain months, I would retreat unto the tower at Ynys Gwydr in order to avoid causing any sort of distress when I trained myself both physically and mentally to become more at one with the body I now possessed.

The Apology
I wrapped myself in melancholy, as I wore a mental hue a shade of red. A faded red rose petal plucked from the garden of young love. I keep it pressed next to my heart as a memorial of what once was; a tangible metaphor of a dove...loves sacred animal, soaring high within the catacombs of my psyche sitting under starless skies skating on the edge of a crimson red razor blade balancing between reality and fiction wondering if you just loved me or were truly in love with me is my daily affliction.
I often reach deep within my soul to collect the scattered and sharp pieces of you that I...

Pitiful, Just Plain Pitiful
The honeymooners ebulliently chat
having breakfast in an Inn’s café
spying a geriatric couple in another booth
eating in silence
never glancing the other’s way
newlyweds replete with optimistic youth
say “we’ll never become like that…
we’ll love each other come what may”
Fast forward 29 years
middle-aged man sits alone
having breakfast in an Inn’s café
digesting thoughts of regret and fears
remembers the aged, stoic pair
viewing their state in a different way
however dispassionate they appeared
at the very least...
