Diamond Dust
enchanted white rose
withstands the cold of winter
memorable sight
night frost paints diamond dust
Our brave bloom becomes a gem

Diamond Dust
Sub-zero temperature
Moisture in the air frozen
Into billions of tiny crystals...
Savage beauty

Diamond Dust Turned Rock
I owe you, Cadbury iris of mine eyes
From age to age you watched me aged
Grace reminds, I'd see naught sans you gracing me
Yet; two more eyes I possess, there's two of spirituality.
Yes, I've grown from fire and ice, hurricanes, and sad groans
They say, one day I just simmered; seemed more settled
I who rose like dulcet

Diamond Dust, Devil
into the mysterious Cloud Water Valley
haunting echoes of dead ashes
filling the voids of empty hearts lies a soulless spirit
-------------- A Transformed Valkyrie
from once a beautiful maiden
sweet voice giving Elixir of life
conquering the hearts of many knights.... falling for One
-------------- A King of Hearts
holding the legendary sword "Diamond Dust"
a warrior on the

Diamond Dust, Devil
Diamonds in the rough,
Make the dust fly,
Dust and ashes
The devil comes alive !
Earth in its deep inside
Is full of arrogance
Erupting volcanoes
Devastating beauty,
Blind to the
Observer's delight !
The storms, tornadoes
Never stay calm
Join the darker side,
Moonlight sprinkles
Diamond dust in
Night's dark waters !
Under deep oceans
Lava bubbles out,
Red crater at midriff,
Rainbow colours to
The whirlpool surrounds,
The devil to pay !
Zeus

Diamond Dust-Devil
The rain, thunder and lightening gods laugh
Playing football on the plains of heaven
Their little faces glowed white
In the light.
The river rock-rimmed creek-lets on the earth
Mountains, the sources of rivers breathing icy bliss
Teensy snow creek diamond-glittered
And the inorganic granite eaten down.
People slept on river’s banks
Drank from soiled streams
Grains cooked in rock-flour glacier water
Dirt left on boulders
For

Diamond Dust, Devil
Fighting for survival far away from home
With my cloak and dagger where the devils roam
Lurking in the darkness that conceals the night
There belong the phantoms well beyond my sight.
All my strength is seeping, bleeding wound is sore
I won’t last much longer, I will hide no more.
Now the wind is howling; let it groan and blow
Lifeless,

Diamond, Dust, Devil
Cluster, bright, shining,
Sound echoing to a distant whining,
Beautiful elegant and mesmerising,
perfection; flawless and tantalising,
A diamond; lust for the finger to wear
Eyes interlocked by the powers of hypnotic charm,
Beckoning by the wearer of gifts
Taking, forsaken a contract
exchanged with this prince of illusion,
Seconds follow immediate confusion,
Live glows an elegant sparkle
Before the wearer becomes aware of his demise,
Smoke

Diamond Dust, Devil
Diamond Dust, Devil
On Mars there is only life
It turns forever up
In growing glowing heights
Dust devils in the diamond light
Roam endlessly on rocks and planes
Lifting seas of sand
Out of the silent planet
Dust devils take to flight
To foreign lands
Across the universe and cosmic spans
And fall down devil hot
Like diamond dust they cool and settle
As planned

Diamond Dust, Devil
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend they say.
I know of a story that’s filled with dismay.
A girl worshiped a gem in abnormal way.
Many never believed how she went astray.
Only one man knew of what she did pray.
Now she began her destiny to begin to prey.
Devil’s diamond was her private bouquet.
Daring spells spoke, never served allay.

Diamond Dust Devils
Like swirling winds, across the land
We'll strip away everything that stands
Show no mercy, to those we find
Leave their headless corpse to remind
Like ravaging wolves with gnawing teeth
Our gleaning swords, this day will feast!
Come! Shake your diamond shields
War has come, we will not yield!
Raise your cup and loudly cheer
The warrior's death you'll face is here
Honor our

Diamond Dust Devil Unplugged
She blows in like a whirlwind
And glimmers like the sea
Her eyes shine like midnight stars
And cold as winter's breeze
She'll promise you the pleasures
That you have never known
You will shower her with gold and jewels
And she'll tease you till you groan
She will take from your friends
Convince you, they're not friends at all
Steal you from your wife

DIAMOND DUST DEVIL
1169 Dominion...
A dark world lives beyond Orion.
This world is within an alien moon.
On its stable ground, stands a murder of mentality and childhood.
As babies are born, the mammoth scions brain from the dead.
The child life has been prepared.
The countryside is where he reclines.
He sits in his study analyzing his crimes.
He states to himself,
