Place now...
And steadfastly search out,
Nestling between ridge and bluff
Amidst the folds of a foreign
Land,
Several acres of unkempt ground

With an exposed slate roof in
Some...

We reached the back foot of the tower tall,
Our eyes went up to the top core
For two little flames we saw install,
And another responding from so far

The Precipice
"The Precipice"
In the Autumn
she wore a wedding veil
A cold winter would lift it
Kiss her lips passionately to
speak words of
LOVE
on a
late roll call
“Well, that’s insanity for you”
some snakes would hiss
others rapture-faced

Well, of course he's misanthropic

I Am Not My Fear
I feel I am drowning
In open air,
Clawing at dirt that isn’t there
No one sees my distress—
No one really cares

Suddenly then I'm...

In the labyrinth of thoughts, where worlds silently revolve,
Under the shadow of the Monarch ruling in unseen illusions,
A solitary Sovereign, avatar of ancestral downfall,
Reigns eternally over human souls, ephemeral and fragile.
