Dancing In Horror With Fate In Blackest Abyss
Collaboration with Kurt Ravidas

I walk mountain storm, step out to cut deep its edge
forever tempting that fall from its narrow ledge,
in the midst of ravenous rage and great sorrows
this beseeching spirit begs for more tomorrows;
yet as silence echoes...

The Blackest Black
Flow 
with me
along 
the 
rivers of 
common 
sense,
eroding 
the 
riverbeds 
of 
tribalism 
and 
racism,
revitalising 
the very 
essence 
of man's 
existence.
Flow 
with me 
you will 
get the 
sense.

Dine 
with me 
on the 
table of 
realism
and 
enjoy 
the 
fruits of 
collectivism.
Because 
you 
donot 
see 
beyond 
races 
and...

Blackest Rose
senses flee a body still
clouds of grey destroy this life
child unknown its mother slain
a dying oath of lasting pain

feet pause to view the light
where feelings awaken beyond sight
an accidental touch doth break the keep
for undying love my blackest rose...

The Blackest Day: Revisited
as the Towers die away 
alone on a beach where thunderheads Roll 
where I stood far from
shards of glass fire, horror, disaster
they televised only elemental chaos 
cold rains passed through a nation's heart 
then through my soul, hardened
on that day
that day when the unimaginable was...

Much As Love And Hope Defeats Blackest Blight

I shall walk from the dark into new light
Much as love and hope defeats blackest blight
So too, may faith in recovery ask
Does not the hero, in great courage bask
To stride a victor over battles fought
A winner, hero, to...

Daddy, George's eyes are still opened so he's alive
"Lilyann, what the Hell is going on ; Joe call the Police
Tell them we need a couple of ambulances"
Come here little guy, Dad took a hanky out of his pocket
wiped my lips Looks like you lost some...

Lying In the Blackest Hour
pretender kings
in hollow realms,

sullen on iron thrones,

skeletal fish
in mercurial ponds,

eating their own tails,

fractured reflections
in shadowed mirrors,

eyes following with distorted grins,

salt stained pilgrims
passing bestial gods,

lapping blood in trenchers,

and I, what have I become?

What I have always been....

Premium Member The Blackest Page In the Scriptures -Matthew 26: 20-25
What a terrible passage here conveyed
showing how wicked is the human heart
allowing sin to overtake that person
leading them in Satan's hand in no small part

This is seen in the person of Judas Iscariot
a disciple that betrayed his master
one that made a profession of faith
his heart...

Another flash of lighting and in that split second “Mom” became a very dark and Evil  “MA’AM”
The Ebony Crop came out of the bow and...

In Blackest Where There Be Shades
It becomes so hard to forget a day like today
So close to the sea, so close to the end of forever
The blackness paints too perfectly for words to say
I am to see a life beyond my life to be better

I cannot emphasize enough how much...

Deepest Love Destroyed By Blackest Of Lies

Flailing away against dark, stormy wind
daggers cutting up lonely tormented heart.
What more can evil dare my way to send
before anguished soul decides to depart?

Thunder roars, ears hears unrelenting cries
agony grows with every booming clap.
Deepest love destroyed by blackest of...
