Who Put Luebella Down the Wych Elm
"Who Put Luebella down the Wych Elm?"
There are rumours
about me, some
come seeking me
with their geiger counters
and ouji boards
with their heart
shaped planchettes
unanswered questions
in the woods, crackling
within the sounds of leaves
invisible dead things speaking
underfoot...

Visit To Antietam
Alone I arrive, walking from Frederick
over the gaps, across gentle hills
out onto a knoll
overlooking this burnished landscape.
Before me I see countless writhing rows
of indiscernible shapes gathered
in terrible rituals mid fire and smoke
darkening the sun.
From distant...

Forever Forgive Me
Forever forgive me
For my one and only iniquity
Please forgive me
With forbearance eternally
Lots of anger and lust
Got a hold of me…

Determine my footsteps to the light
Emotionally unhappy

The Frog Prince - Part 1

once lived beside a slimy bog,
he was a most peculiar fellow,
his hat was red, his boots were yellow,

the strangest sight you’ve ever seen,
no matter where...

In ancient days when pharaohs reigned
The kingdom of the pyramids,
Osiris and that Isis’ den,
Whom everyone worships and heeds,
Or at least doing so they feigned,
And those gods too blessed them and...

Its haunting words, a melody of fright.

Shed history's warm light to chase away all care...

with battle-ax or bayonet)
