Eldritch Hysterical Annihilation Syndrome

I am lost in unapproachable light—a spectral broth
I am tasting the screaming silence—the archetypal observer
dissects my essence-fossil Passion
a seismic rupture between life/death/rebirth

Domestic Mask
I see a rose wilting by the darkness of an abusive husband/
And I feel guilty just standing by and not doing something/

Portrait of a Hanging

solemn-faced men come locust invading in
Their mouths smile not, and eyes neither grin
as ceremonial words pursed lips expel
A deer thought escapes ... my life nears its end!

Elysian Fields Are Beautiful in Spring
Opa John
The caboose sits red—its iron spine cradles the earth like Atlas

Black Swan
I saw you …
high …
atop the promontory
spinning with manic madness
pirouettes et fouetté
lost in yourself -
in movement …
your upper back split, low

splayed and black as black
(obsidian...

Into the woods we ventured, where darkness began to encircle us,
Their ancient murmurs mingling with the forest’s ominous chorus.
A chilling breeze, as if the very breath of the woods sighed,
Veiled in tempestuous clouds, the stars...

Positively Stunning
I used to be obsessed with fashion, caring far too much about clothes,
Like the sun whenever he's coming and going, is striking vanity's pose.
I lavished absurdly upon my wardrobe, in excess of what was practical,
Like...

The Boadicea Blood Cup
"The Boadicea Blood Cup"
Didst thou think? Didst thou?
Didst thou think, at all?
That thou would remain untouched, unchecked, unscathed
Safely locked up away from mine wrath and thee, thy self-made grave?

I am
“As God’s spark ensouling organic form,

I am that which transcends both...
