Twilight, the phantoms of the past cavort
Willow trees bending to the winds of change
Eternity in the darkness of autumn nights
Never knowing whether I shall live or die
Tell me why my blood must feed the piercing thrusts
Yell and scream at me, I no longer fear my...

They say that success is a sharpened blade,
And I whet mine each day so carefully.
In the steel my reflection ever ablaze
My eyes glint with blunt functionality.
Slicing precisely—a delicate process
of practiced strokes sliding back and forth 
each gesticulation into the pith causes
the blood to gush under...

NIGHT OF THE LONG KNIVES 2
To your mind's eye, I lay what I may choose
to be the only way you'll ever find,
you'll never have the choice to win or lose,
but go the way I put into your mind.

What evil lurks? You'll never feel the grip

The scene was set in zoom
Knives were at the ready
Was dragged into the room
Hands really were not steady

Was to film the ritual
Camera in hand
Looked to check if all ok
Would rather sit than stand

The executioners walked in
Looked at the corpse on the slab
Picked up the knives...

Knives

This is the point of a kinife
A very sharp blade?
To protect?

 I’ll make ya feel it and make ya throb it

I opened my hand to yours.
Greeted by knives.
The hidden agenda of a parasite
wanting to feast on the likes of me.
Infectious poison coming from your cold, blue lips. 
Lies masked by my attraction to your curvacious hips.
My mind taken in by trick after trick.
I pull you...

It takes a word,
a jab,
to poke fun at,
regardless of the meaning.

From a inconsequential moment,
to a serious talk.

From being critiqued,
to a mean spirited attack.

It takes time to see
what the author is trying 
to say.

What was the motive?
What was the thought behind it?

Through and through though more to do-
A thousand thoughts to misconstrue!
Too long I've waited, too sad and sedated
To live a lie I declare is true...
And so it seems that in my dreams
I bathe myself in Moonlight beams
That light the night, turn black to white
And will...

Like humans have a life,
Although people don’t face a murder charge
For hacking them down.

Like humans indulge in strife
But don’t wear their animosities like a barge
Nor noise them in the town.

Like man, parade a breathing mechanism,
Though it is carbon dioxide they cherish
And like him answers an...
