When Ravenous Wolf, Prowls At Our Home's Open Door

Of beauty, paintings,  flowers and smothering Art
Dares not the innocent truth- ever the race start
Or prisoner, trapped lamb- shear its own white fleece
By all the vanished gods, Death's hands embrace Greece
And dawn's beauty loses its most...

When I sing I sound like prehistoric creature
Fending off attackers, defending each metre
A scary old fellow
As I screech and bellow
So beware my friends I'm a ravenous eater...

She The Ravenous Queen, That Can Have All My Tomorrows


Ah that creamy chocolate
swirl
of gold-blasted passion,
it fingers roaming and
gifting deep titillating pleasures
with both our lips
that gift honey-breaded
sensational
love
a steaming arena
of delight
your body
its sexy curves
and ravenously
hot
hidden
oasis .....

O' my this soul
seeks none other
than you
my princess
with
that raven-black
smooth hair
luscious lips
ten mile
long
tanned...

RAVENOUS ELDRITCH WRATH

The darkening skies in choir of wrath;
The wind brisk banging blows;
The withering of trees;
The falling twirling leaves;
The branches sudden irate tweak and split.

Giving way to the rushing threat of death
Will another candle die in it's final flicker of light?

From afar

High hasty orisons a...

"I Knew Anne Silently - My Ravenous Poe" 

I knew Anne.
you’d think 
with a name like hers
she’d be able to find her way 
out of unchartered waters.

it didn’t come as a suprise, 
then, on second thoughts, much later,
that she would write a poem for...

Resurrected tomb inspected but all that was left was a purple covenant torn and tattered
Next to this covenant of wet tears and blood was a letter evidently from his Mother Mary
This letter read:  I am sorry, I could not die with you and I...

Ravenous thief

infiltrating the depth
			of our souls
stealing from us the eyes
			of our children
silencing the joy
			of their smiles
demanding a ransom
			for each moment

Chameleon curse

mutating in the midst
			of battle
clandestine coward
			seeking escape
within the ruins
			of the ravaged

Unwelcome usurper
			draining life
cowering at the sight
			of a pink ribbon
deafened by the sound
			of love’s footsteps
shuddering at...

Jen the human race is in a rush!

Still...
You remain serene 
Like the heavenly masterpiece 
Painted by God's glorious Brush....

Time goes sprinting by.
Like an animal it flees.
Seconds   Minutes   Hours   Days.
Quickly ticked away.
The clock is a hungry mouth.
Eating away all the time.

Eagerly it goes.
Swiftly sailing, soaring.     Gone.  
A thousand years in a blink.
Then your...

Let go of all your inhibitions 
lay your head upon my chest 
listen to my heart pang for you 
and let my fingers do the rest 

slowly moving across your body 
tingling inside with your every need 
entranced this new found adoration 
ravenous, all night,...

RAVENOUS




The Corvus Corax,
Traditional symbol of doom.

Calculating and manipulative, 
the Raven builds her nest.

Golden branches, silver twigs,
opportunitively taken selfishly.

Groomed well from mother crow,
she sings beautifully for all to admire.

Golden eggs, an heir and spare,
solidify the future.

The Corvas Corax,
Destroys the Forest...Nevermore....

Escaping the darkness
With the wings of an Angel

Salvation is only a step away
However fleeting the moment is

It haunts me in my dreams
The screaming will never cease

She moves in my thoughts
Like water through a ravine

Clean, pure, fluid
She can’t be stopped

The drums beat to war
An army is...

Ravenous Flames

Such beautiful, writhing creatures,
devouring the wind that nurtures.
The one element darkness fears.
Their hypnotic invitation;
drawing curious creation...
"Our hunger to fill, come closer."
Tasting prey with tongues that ignite;
morphed to serpants, striking night..
Once succombed, quickened flames now leer.
