Weaving beneath the tides of the sea I Follow the tides Rising Falling Coming up to deny the air Going beneath to collect salt deposits For what is life without flavor and seasoning And what is death without a reason to die Cliffs stained with red Shores dried out like bones And a war withContinue reading “Duel”

Still Warm
It’s gray out But the warm sun blasts through the ceiling of clouds Filling my body with Essential heat Vitamins And a means to alchemically produce Happiness In material form But we long for the dark So that we can peer down empty streets with Lightless eyes And claim that we see the world forContinue reading “Still Warm”
Hamburgers and How They Are Made
Red, white, and polluted Blew up the shoot In reversed motion like Spiders crawling back into Egg sacs If you have what it takes If you can maintain the look You too can be weighed and found wanting More and more divine judgement While a man in torn jeans and fingerless gloves parts the redContinue reading “Hamburgers and How They Are Made”
Priestly Divide
Keeper of the cross Judge me and find me wanting More, for angels have numerous eyes and None of them see the way men do.– I extend my hand From the pulpit Reaching down to you who are Weary and heavy laden Can you save me from this place?– Beast of the circle Hunt meContinue reading “Priestly Divide “
Hunger Within Reason
Voracity Carnal in incarnation Can you lack any visible signs of entry? – Keep the noise locked away? When I saw you last night, you were Not the same Your eyes were like long streams Washing through cracks and crags – At the ebb and flow Beck and call Cradle the motive And we all rise AndContinue reading “Hunger Within Reason”

WD 223 “Purgatory”
A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth.

WD 222 “A Diagram”
A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. A Diagram I close like The petals of a flower Come in to meet me and hide in my dark All the stages of grief can be felt and once As we slide down the stem In lightless peace and horror What I am is NoContinue reading “WD 222 “A Diagram””
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 220 “Eclipse”
A poem inspired by The Muse of Cold Earth. Eclipse Built up like a jackhammer The sun creeps across an onyx floor Gagging the call for restraint Luna is swallowed up in the jaws of A hungry wolf Trust no one, lest they trust in you For surely, a righteous man once walked here TheContinue reading “WD 220 “Eclipse””
