Premium Member unsettling feeling of doom
raven of the marsh sounded the alarm mystic named Marilee listened carefully first the bull frogs, then the spiders, now this three signs in three days; mischief was afoot spirit was in the air, Marilee strived to identify it A chill pierced her soul; she felt threatened this was not a spirit guide she knew or a loving ancestor Clairsentient, she sensed...

Silence
Silence is the absence of energy No vibration, movement, or synergy Nature muted, physics frozen Molecular loss of motion Stillness, cessation, yet more Peaceful quiet we adore Or the calm before the storm A meditation to perform Tranquility without a note No rhythm or tempo to denote Without melody or harmony A sad musical larceny No instrument, no voice to sing No string to pluck or bell to...

Gone Golden
Gold on ancient atoll? Gone be prospector's hope! Gore, doth coat the brazen bull? Golem, get the rope? Best for those politest men? Better think again. Bone a-broken, dive in den? Flicker on the fen... Torn like life tormented? Break upon, O wave. How the gods lamented! O shroud hung on the grave! Yellow as a predator's eye? Dun the desert doubt. Riddles, rivers, thy reply? Time will sort it...

Priests of Doom and Gloom: Fear, the seat of their feigned power. We, meaning them, know best: follow us and be saved or risk eternal pain and suffering~ being forever graved! Yet some, as I, choose the worship of one word, Love! Avoiding Dogmatic Mercenaries, Faux stand-ins, for the one, true, God, all merciful, unlike the Above....

Premium Member Creature of Doom
What creature is this that cometh near His luggage filled to the brim with fear Crushing our lives, crushing our beliefs O whence for me shall bring only griefs What of the men whom now weep? What of the woman buried alive in their sleep? What of the children who once stood brave? Their minds controlled their souls enslaved The baneful trumpets sound...

Premium Member The Light and the Doom
Embracing what is known as the light. Is by no means an easy plight. For no one is always in the right. Just a figure in flight. With whom did you postpone this thing? By the hand with the golden ring. He is King. Say no to the darkness of doom, while you...

Hold Fast
"Hold fast, don't let the lines slip", The ropes tighten around the mast of the ship, A salty Captain grasps the wooden helm, Waves rip on the horizon, his realm, Quartermaster yells "Storm heading northwest by west", White knuckled the captain shrugs as though a jest, "Hold fast Boys! This'll be a rough ride", The crew gazed upon the captain with pride, From...

Doom's Day
Once the earth was green and alive. But now it is dreary and dying. What is left is deforestation, logging, fossil fuels, industrialisation, more fuming factories and pollution. The air we breathe was once fresh, the oceans and rivers clean and uncontaminated. We are now on the verge of extinction but no one is...

The Risk of Hope
A light shone in the distance, As it neared my place in the void I felt its warmth I saw its smile I heard its laugh The light came closer, It got too hot Its smile was too wide Its laugh had other plans....

Premium Member The Baneful Sonnets Doom
Dark energy spreads ink across the universe, dripping scarlet liquid fated by black magic. As the wheels spin poets' necromantic verse, dark energy spreads ink across the universe, and trumpeting angels’ mighty blasts rehearse. The baneful sonnets doom driven by tragic. Dark energy spreads ink across the universe, dripping scarlet liquid fated by black magic. Dark...
