Destruction
Depression. Wet floor signs everywhere. So are puddles. Falling. Despair. That feeling where you are covered in leaves. And some leaves blow away. But some are forever. Desolation. When he hands you the last crayon. In the world. And it just snaps in half. Demolish. Diminish. Destroy. Death. And then the last of the last. Just...

A night at a graveyard
A gossamer hung on the graveyard's gate. A spider clung to steel, consuming its meal. It had no need to know dinner was served late, Nor sensed ghostly keels the summer winds conceal. The owls flew on, unperturbed by midnight's scare, That made dead men howl silently in each grave, Fresh ghosts were blown toward the gate in despair, The gate creaked...

What blooms after burning
She was a field– soft, wide, aching. He was the match, small but hungry. They met not in spring, but in that breathless hush before things grow– where hope is still half-buried beneath frost. She held the rain like a secret. He wore the fire like a promise He never meant to keep. She broke without a sound He burned like it was prayer. and yet– in the blackened soil, something...

Self Destruction
Leaders are worshiped, Armies are much hailed, Weapons are much praised, And innocent creatures are, Killed in the streets, in the Homes, while they are working, While they are sleeping, The children's heart full of, Terror, they are told, we are, Worrier, we win the war, But who tell the preacher, Wars cant not be won, and No way, they can be win, Both side loose,...

Abandon All Grace Here
I wore my sins like velvet lace, Then set your garden all ablaze. I never once said I was kind-- I only promised not to mind. The chandelier you loved? It fell. I laughed and called it “doing well.” Your rules were quaint, but far too tight-- I loosened them with fire and bite. Abandon all grace here, my dear-- The wine is sharp,...

divine destruction
The lightning blinks through diaphanous air, An enigmatic catharsis of the universe. The thunderous exhale fleeting-- Ultraviolet tendrils grasping from the atmosphere. A bolt illuminating the heavens with majestic bearing, Smothering the canvas littered with stars in a flash, Curling with a conniving kind of captivation-- A calamitous craft cracking through the cosmos....

Premium Member A World Ends
And they would strut around the fire Then sat upon their stools, And argued long, in learned terms, Who wore the better jewels! But then there was a man about Who none had seen before, And though he wore a gentle face, They felt a gentle horror. For he did not dance around the fire Or strut about like fools, Nor did he argue who...

Emancipation
I am a hostage inside my mind, A wall of crippling deformities I want to emancipate myself from you, to rid these tortured thoughts that burn words of poisonous acid, deep into the darkest corners of my mind. But how, without killing oneself...

Premium Member Shadows of the Valley
Run faster—looking back will be your downfall. The screeching of the infected gains intensity. Drag the razor wire barricade across blistering concrete— scraping rusted metal, shards splintering into scorched oblivion. Enter the valley of death, shadows playing tricks on your weary mind. Searching for answers, your quest has begun. Cityscapes metamorphose into deserted deserts. Continue your path forward, while an unrepentant sandstorm takes...
