I Will Be There
The children always part their ways when they grow. Not because they don't love parents but because they feel no body understands them. They can't get over their emotions,  they can't see what they...

What of hidden *Icarian wings that yet soar
dreams of blue heavens, where hearts rest forever more
Soft shadows cast by day, deep calls after midnight
begging man's redemption, in invisible flights.

My room, the suite, seemed too small.
I felt like I’d been in my room forever.
I’d developed a scratchy sense of stuckness
and a fresh, itchy awareness of dust particles
floating in the stifling, still air that made...

Catch it, hold it
You snuggle in beside me,
claiming the crook of my arm,
like the last piece of our favourite puzzle
finally finding its place.

I rest my cheek against your precious head,
waiting for this moment to land
so I can try...

We Need More Beauty
Once we created starry nights,
and Mona Lisa with smile slight,
we covered chapels in heavenly scenes,
made David shine in marble sheen.

Shadows
Amidst the dark forest,
Deep among the canopies of fall,
Where the sunlight never reached,

Creating peek worthy curiosity and delusion.

From Death To Mirror Magic
Switching from satanic to death magic is difficult,
Between the two the sense of honor becomes hope,

The energy we use to think as muscle,
Satanic tensing,
Imaginative muscle from infinite potential,
And to allow...

It's a nightmare down on Elm Street. Satan's waiting here at home.
Where's that little Freddy Krueger with his nails of sharpened chrome?
And that dearest Michael Myers, as he's always sure to call?
