WD 27 “Opposition Reform”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth Opposition Reform  I’m waging my battle to the brink Of desolation  Of description  Of dry parts which merit all but allow no depiction  I am  A crack in the screen of your fugitive mind  A cellular signal in your homophobic mind to attack  The wheels onContinue reading “WD 27 “Opposition Reform””

Weird Dreams 26 “The Book of Judges”

A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth Eye of Ra Frolic in the garden, little one For there are beasts about, and The heart that beats with blood contains liquids that predate the common era, flowing into the uncommon, the strange, abstract forms of primordial abuse And there have always been parents  SlitheringContinue reading “Weird Dreams 21 “Eye of Ra””
