A tale of wonder, in verses untold.

From the womb of chaos, creation springs,
With every heartbeat,...

The worlds Ugliest Poem

Think chaos will become the new norm

I wake up another day on my bed
A bed crudely made of stones and rocks
It's dark outside as usual, and again
I'm awaken by tremors and aftershocks
 
It's the same from the day I was born

Under a canopy of shadows in the recess of belittled thoughts

A prison of speechlessness bereft of expression and meaning


Letters motionless in disarray fighting lost battles lonely at heart

Starved...

Third Reign:

Her feeding heart and cold command
Enough to make you quit your band
Well, there’s only so much frostbite one can take
You’ve heard her bitter orders before
To leave your sandals outside her door
And go skating on...

Passion ignited on a strike
She lights the dark night sky
trailing a glowing inferno
scattering embers near and low, soo far and ever so high, 
crawling across the hills ever searching
for a manner to quench her thirst

that one day you’ll look skyward and grok my light too,

Give me the sky
with its blue and grey
with its sun and moon
birds and planes

Give me the sky
when it pours heavily
on desert's scorched earth
creating thick mud-flooded valleys

Illusions of water shimmer on the horizon
Stirring up the dust bowls on your barren chest
Your body adorned with skeletons of your children.

As evening nears the sun cries tears...

And a population to be enslaved against their will
The battles were long and arduous but they finally won
Another victory carved...

Many scenes play out before me
Horses galloping, people running

No rain, no rain clouds, it looks like forest fires...

No monarch stays in power forever.
And a lot of a good thing can be too much.
In the rainy season, the crops began to drown.
And the rivers flooded the beaver dam and rabbit hutch.
