A Coil of the Labyrinth
A coil of the labyrinth winds deep into the night. 
A path that is tortuous and falls 
into terror turning left then suddenly right.

Something sits in a dark room 
pondering the moves of kings. 
Hearts imagine a world of fire. 
Oppression of governments that are...

This Mortal Coil
Am I destined for hell
An eternity of woes
The wraith waits addicted 
And the demons fight for my soul

It seems I struggle 
To abstain from
The temptation of this
Mortal coil

Our Savior
Did not die in vain
He was crucified, slain
And lifeblood drained

For all my sins future and past
So that...

Adieu My Mortal Coil
Velvet winter’s bitter kiss
Escorts my soul to unholy Bliss
As teeth impale, my neck compelled
To embrace his unsacred gift

I am filled with blasphemed pain
As I am born anew
In damned unrest I will remain
A` vie je de adieu


*Hello everybody I just wanted to introduce myself, 
I'm Ricky,...

Mortal Coil
Mortal  coil to shuffle off,
up to the lord, almighty God,
have that bridge, sometime to cross,
ankle deep in mortal dross,
never mind the bloody cost,
till the veil do part,  we plod,
on cloven hoof , unshod,
lonesome n the lost...

The Coil
The coil spirals endlessly 
chambered secrets dwell
 an angel weeps across an infernal land
things sit in a quite hell
 the words are written 
fate is dealt
 the meanings are felt 
a Requiem for the dying 
thoughts are the lights 
of souls chambered were ancient secrets...

Singing the Mortal Coil
Dancing the words to lance the boil
With grace and style but no toil
Watering the soul’s thirsty soil
Poetry sings the mortal coil...

Mortal Coil
Of barren, coarse, of wrath I speak
Long I pondered my passage through the Gates
Now I stand at the prow surrendered and bleak
Sailing my gondola like an eel through the Straits
Where I am at peace with falling off the cliff
Whizzing like an ancient spear
Swept from the...

Mortal coil
Bedsit 
Sit beside your bed 
And wallow there please 
The world doesn't want to see you today 
Even you don't want to see you today 

Oh god why does everything hurt 
And why do I feel so crap 
I hate mornings 
If you love mornings...

misery coil
Along this misery coil
Dust drifting on currents ebbing in
Approaching storms, lightning 
flickering is sheets along thunderheads 
That builds on a hot summer evening 
Along this misery coil
The humidity drips from the flesh like oil
A hot engines scream with steam 
Billowing into the twilight sky
Vacant windows...

Defending Green Snake
It wasn’t a green snake
That tried God’s enterprise to foil
Nor one of greenish make
That had man pushed into piteous toil.

 The sun-loving green wouldn’t anything spoil,
As often it’s thinking of how to funnily coil,
This presuming to playfully act out on your very soil
While your odd...

Event 5
my car sits there like a silver brick lying on the asphalt and here at the top of the street the gargoyles of the building know me and they know that at night I smoke in the dark corners of the patio biting nails counting...

Fire
Everywhere known as the Red Hot,
For which it is also Near Not
You try it skin won’t like the spot
Awaits the eye the worse-than-blot…

Everywhere hated for its smoke,
Smoke sneaking into eyes not a joke;
In emergency tears eyes soak,
Big frowns and squints by the taxed bloke…

What fire...
