Creator Journals 4/29/25

I promised myself I’d finish editing my book “Hounds of Ruin” by the end of May and release it May 9th. This one has been in the oven for quite a while. I have a distinct memory of writing out the outline during downtime at my job in October of 2023. That might not seemContinue reading “Creator Journals 4/29/25”

WD 221 “Claude Frollo”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Claude Frollo Say what you mean to me My particles are rippling with the burden of anticipation And antiseptic creams that wash out infections You’re covered in them, blistering beasts of unmatched ferocity The sun sets on you when you like  And you’re back to letContinue reading “WD 221 “Claude Frollo””

WD 214 “Change My Skin”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Change My Skin I came to a realization At the peak of one lunar mountain The things that changed me were also changed.  Coins in my pocket, jingling with oils and skin cells  Passed between traders and betrayers alike  Silver in the shaft like Judas hunting werewolvesContinue reading “WD 214 “Change My Skin””

WD 213 “Mermaid Blues”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Mermaid Blues It’s just me aboard this canoe Naked bleached under the sun  On a seaward journey without drinking water But if there was a way to filter all the salt of these wounds From that crystal spring that spews from the godly abyss  I wouldContinue reading “WD 213 “Mermaid Blues””

WD 209 “We Are All Plagued”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. We Are All Plagued I woke up standing up Bolt upright like I was the target of the lightning Hail falling down across my shoulders Your snowy mane rife with disease  And you coughed in my direction Alluding to the second coming Forget me not  PetalsContinue reading “WD 209 “We Are All Plagued””

WD 207 “Stethoscope”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Stethoscope  Reflect all the  Light that was taken away  And be a beacon for the sick The blind, the def, lepers and Those with chronically weak hearts We had a boat that traveled by the ruddy glow of the blood stream  Tossed by the reckless whimsContinue reading “WD 207 “Stethoscope””

WD 205 “Into Nothing”

A poem inspired by the Muse of Cold Earth. Into Nothing There is an inequality in the stars That some would burn bright and others burst into Super novas Upon the expanse I’m waiting For you With fingers tapping to the rhythm of the universe And the planets are in love with black holes VacantContinue reading “WD 205 “Into Nothing””

WD 202 “After Dark”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. After Dark What is the breaking point of a soul Roiling in steams and oils A vat of sanguine acid running down your chin  Restless night amidst the shadows of wailing trees A territory of shrieking memories That refuse to be forgotten  I was wrong toContinue reading “WD 202 “After Dark””

WD 200 “Alice of Ends”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Alice of Ends The answer is in the question And yet, you go on Searching every toadstool for a magic serum of personal growth When did we get lost in this Wonderland Were we beguiled by cheshire smiles, Walmart hats and March Hairs  To keep inContinue reading “WD 200 “Alice of Ends””
