And he waited relentlessly to see the spark in my eyes...

The Last Train, Part IOn the canvas of a cold, grey, winter sky,
In large black letters above the Iron Gate,
Read the message: "Arbeit Macht Frei".

Designed to deceive all of our eventual fate.
This was the very...

no more connections between the two deaths,

SymbioticYou know not why you're now here,
just that you are bound by fear-
(and a couple incised wires)
watching me, enticed with pliers.
Naked, cold, taught, and crying,
you can't move, although you're trying.
All stretched out, upon your stomach,
odors...

Whispers of the Stranded SoulWritten: June 24, 2023

Sadness erupts; who is suffering sails?
In the depths where hope once dwelled.
A vessel that was gone, love's dying exhale
Lost by the cruel hand of fate, they were felled.
Surf cracks at the damaged...

With no thought of saving, storing, salvaging
The little evils you possess
I dare you to try to live after I pronounce you dead!...

A Jerky ReverieA Jerky Reverie
Where is the moon just now?
The light shining from the sun
appears, to have blotted it out.

passes
through it, violating solid state.
Harmonious discontent,...

The Demons Peace Pt1Deep within my blackened soul
This dark nightmare grows
From putrid bile so foul
Where bloodied carnage grows
Festering in a venomous pit
Where only my demon goes
The bloodsuckers of the night
Scorn my very existence
Cowering as from holy light
The lupine...

Unfinished NightmareUnfinished Nightmare
Mouth agape
trash can lid arches limply
its hinged spine

defying decayed adhesive
refusing like me to accept
the dry erosion...
