Heartened by the latter soreness of silent night,
Shackled through the chill blows above,
A tempest, a storm,
Threshing the world,
Shaking the Prison of Plot,
The waters of the Holy Spirit...

Lost Love Deliria - Part 3 Part 3
9th Delerium: Emptyness
Water wheels in wastelands... turning,
drowning relics in the slum
Rumpled rags of fashioned burlap... burning,
lit by bandits blind and dumb
Pastured prisons, ponies bridled ... yearning,
forest fairies under thumb
Sounds inside of cauldrons coughing......

Having Felled ItThe warmth no longer comes
it seems to only leave.
The furry ones, all
caught in hypnotic disbelief:
hardening ground's
taken root
where once
gardening grounds
(forsaken, mute)
were once and again
makin' fruit.
Each beast, shaking
like a leaf
(though, truth be told
I've only ever
seen 'em...

Something About the Month of MaySomething about the month of May

Garden Diary
The moment winter softens into spring and all is melting, the first flower is the
white snowdrop poking through the snow, quickly followed by johnny-jump ups.
They are so cute and delicate in my patch of garden,...

Troubled SoulTroubled soul, that’s not whole
Anymore and a shadow, that’s got a hold.
So, scared about the dare
From the demons’ pair
With a snare.
Feeling grounded and pounded
By the demon howlin to bound me
And dragging me round.
Being depressed but...
