O' crescent glow of perpetual allure, candescent vigil, spirit light. Vouchsafe a crystal dream so I may brave the solemn eerie night. But if by chance, at dawn, this ka, in slumber's freeze awaits. With plumage beings I beseech ascend to greet God's sentence fate. ...

Crescent Silver
Cloaked figure approached - voice of death it spoke; “Your moments come,” manifests scythe from smoke. Each step bereft your pulsates, dirge of a malodorous, bittersweet symphonies requiem of the hollow - mahogany tree; stutter/sputter/cough sanguinary pearls hell plead, crescent sickle moonshines through the clouds this nightmare, ray of moonlight beam ebbs your breast beat, snuff a candlelight - ...
