Lords Of The Poison
Venom drips from the blade like a snake fang.
Hanging by a thread.
Dread the voices unheard.
Let the song ring true in your mind till it’s over.
Sober words never tell truth.
Sooth and be the one burned.
Grip the steel and ready yourself for the battle.
Rattle your sabers and shout.
Doubting your own strength.
The eyes of the viper are watching from the fog.
Dogs of war are unleashed.
Sheath the whole sword’s length.
Lords of the poison.
Masters of the tongue.
Congress in treason.
Allegiance...
Hanging by a thread.
Dread the voices unheard.
Let the song ring true in your mind till it’s over.
Sober words never tell truth.
Sooth and be the one burned.
Grip the steel and ready yourself for the battle.
Rattle your sabers and shout.
Doubting your own strength.
The eyes of the viper are watching from the fog.
Dogs of war are unleashed.
Sheath the whole sword’s length.
Lords of the poison.
Masters of the tongue.
Congress in treason.
Allegiance...

Christmas on Mars
on the cold dunes of distant Mars
in Mariner Valley under the stars
where sometimes it seems to be almost warm
and sometimes obscured by a dust storm
recalling the beautiful, liquid and luscious
world we are from, where water rushes
from towering mountains down to the ocean,
life everywhere in constant motion...
Venus's tail's terrestrial brushing
with curtains of light that crackle the hush in
the awesome beauty of polar night
remembered on Mars with the beautiful sight
of electric currents intertwining ...

Raphium Series~Glow
drained of my energy I reach up and out connecting with the aether
the air has always been my friend
the wind carries me skyward until I touch the atmosphere
then I reach outer space
where I contemplate the mortal coil that tethers me to the Earth
it's then I wonder how did I get here?
my soul wanders the celestial questioning the immortals
do you know me?
am I yours or did you kidnap me from some alien nursery?
a child of dread feasting off energies
in the dark I'm home
past the starlight and planets there is quiet
I...

Funeral Pyres
Forest fires raged, as our incinerated cinders fell as ash
Under cremation palls, where lightning bolts would flash
No one would know our fate, for the autocrats were liars
Every fire, they fuelled, they fuelled for our funeral pyres
Ravaged by disease, they chose not to quell the spread
As those, with despotic power, preferred to see us dead
Leaving us to rot in pits, or hiding us, amongst the trees
Purifying our decay, as the napalm scorched the breeze
Yesterday's gone, but it's when megalomaniacs reigned
Razing all before them, as messiahs were...

Museum of Decay
I crawl around inside your moist texture
Lost inside your broken womb, the aroma of a stale gutter warms the back of my throat, I decided I needed a break so I climbed inside your prism, fetal decay all telling their story's a warm embrace of a preserved vision, you carry this story to all that whither away in the shadows you cast, it's time to leave this cradle, I crawl towards the glimmer in my eye and reach for the stars through your wide open mouth

science-fiction in a tea cup
energies expand and contract
ever flowing throughout the cosmos
making manifest oneself through more than one portal at a time
the illusion of self being present on only this wavelength is false
we are present in the vast universes as well
pieces of our being living out a dream
the matrix is a construct we affix to
an anchor to keep us grounded
the truth of us is interconnected
soul to soul, mind to mind
and to the great vast unknown
inspiration feeds our need for knowledge
it is my belief space craft are not needed to...

Time And Space
The world around you is a sham and a vile deception
Implanted by an AI mainframe, for its own perception
Memories may feel real, as you try to track and trace
Even though you're not anywhere, in time and space
And what you accept as life, is not, you will never die
Nor reincarnate, for you have never lived, it's all CGI
Death, like life, is a failed concept you can't conceive
Seek the mythical truth of, or in ethereal faith believe
Pseudo science will hide the fact, that you don't exist
As you're a program that's running in its doppler shift ...

Raphium Series~the reckoning
solemnly I enter the cosmic corridor
a sacred place where no words are spoken
a mind to mind contact of vast civilizations
a wrinkle then a time warp
faster than the speed of light thoughts travel
a journey of discovery ensues
through time and wormholes we rise
I plead my case before the celestial council
"the humans are still in their infancy
technology may be their undoing"
I ascend the ranks of societies
"greetings lovely one
speak to us of your travels"
"I've been surveying our newlings

Resist The Urge
I been around the system.
I’ve seen your kind before.
Thought you could beat the system.
You can’t escape no more.
Sit down and listen.
Got you in my tractor beam.
Promise I won’t hit them.
But they should not be seen.
I’m not going to order some kind of purge.
But I’m the only one who can resist the urge.
So you say you’re a rascal.
That your record is cool.
Buddy I’m raising pascals.
Cause you’re such a tool.
I want you off my ship.
With your contraband.
Your cargo has hips.
But I...

See Something Else In Him
I come from stars beyond the sky.
I seed the stars with any guy.
Our plan to age on colonies.
Returns us to our goddamn lies.
I see the changing times and hold my nose once more.
Dive into the den of thieves and make myself the whore.
I see something else in him even if no one else can.
I’m prepared to stay with him and hold his callous hands.
Transport to poor and ruthless moons.
Escape a life I want to lose.
It’s right here I wish I could stay.
It’s worth the life I’ll live one day.
I see the changing times and...

Renewal
let go of where you think you are
relax...relax... let go
we're moving to another star
relax...go with the flow
electric currents flow between
orbs of living light
feeding power although unseen
through the endless night
faster than we think we can
photons fade behind
lightspeed just an also ran
in and out of time
in a blink...in a flash
once again we're near
a yellow star to which we've dashed
relax... relax... we're here
let go of who you think you are
becoming someone who
you...
relax...relax... let go
we're moving to another star
relax...go with the flow
electric currents flow between
orbs of living light
feeding power although unseen
through the endless night
faster than we think we can
photons fade behind

My Name Is Mudd
I have got no grace.
And I’ve got no wife.
It’s just me in space.
It’s just my way of life.
I’m just letting loose.
It’s what I live for.
I do what I choose.
Just call me Harcourt.
You know me.
You’ve heard my name.
I never do anything I should.
So show me.
How to play the game.
I am the king, my name is Mudd.
And that’s my fame.
Born for the cosmos.
I’ll take it all.
Each star a new host.
I’m having a ball.
Go ahead, say it.
I’m dashing, lass.
Got to respect. ...
