Malkavian Three
His glowing golden eyes glistened with a comprehension beyond the mortal condition

A brightly bleached stalactite overbite gleaned between the mean features of an...

Sonnets I-Iv
A Vain Word
by Michael R. Burch
Oleanders at dawn preen extravagant whorls
as I read in leaves’ Sanskrit brief moments remaining
till sunset implodes, till the moon strands grey pearls
under moss-stubbled oaks, full of whispers, complaining
to the...

The Cyrillic Runestone
A journeyman once spelunked in a cavern beneath a marsh,
Whose oily layers of algae and water made his mission harsh.
For the cavern's entrance stood in the middle of the massive swamp
Full of gators with sawtooth...

In the silent sanctuary of melancholy, a stir is born
In the silent sanctuary of melancholy, a stir is born,
The flow of consciousness streams like a river from the depths of creativity,
Where each soul finds its unique, unsearched significance,
And yet, defeated by the irony of...

Our Day Out.

we travelled near and travelled far,
then ended up at white scar cave,
take in the history and behave.
the doorway was discovered in 1923,
by a student from the univercity,

Show Me Television
The era of catatonic self-destruction has risen yet again from boulder-blocked caves,
Whose cavernous stalactite incisors drip with the blood of thorny crowns,
Worn in punitive irony for the subversion of fertile inferiority,
Which, like rabbits, duplicates and...

PALEO PAIR
PALEO PAIR
Hands rapturously
slashing satori
Bang !
Light released filter down
bats brushed skin to
fly knowingly low
then water gushed
through cracks
snakes spiders scorpions
were our toes
stones spoke in bugle
sound as Sun set in
whirlwinds
the cave was nowhere
yet everywhere
Beethoven’s symphonies...

The Concert
The Concert
In a crowded concert hall musicians stir.
Coming to life, the wind slowly swings a loose screen door.
Half a mile away, the wide open door is but a dot
Diminishing the darkness from the heavens above.

Birth To Infinity
Germ of essence.
Human blob.
Shattered eggshell to the chicklet hatched.
Interlocking family of a kingdom.

Pouch bearing mammal with no issue for her milk a plenty.

The Cave
She wanders through the cave
Caressing its walls with a slender finger
Cautiously, she treads
With attention to every detail
Every stalactite,
Every blemish,
Every twist and turn,
Effortlessly inscribed in her mind.
It feels her there
Inside its walls
Exploring all its...

The Astral Entity
Once the dark of dilated pupils eclipsed my saffron sanguine irises,
Sucking the luminescent astral soma as does a tonsil to a virus.
A face of a phantom doth float in the folds of the frigid night,
Scowling...

Bow To Me
A genie's lamp cannot compare,
To smoke awoken from my breath,
Slithered out in ancient swear,
Unshackled life from sudden death.
Hear me now in brazen bond,
Bow to me, before now still,
From truth ye once had to abscond,
In fevers,...

Perpetual Darkness
On my first spelunking excursion with a few friends
I got separated from the group, and hysteria quickly overtook me.
The cave led to a dank cavern, and when I lit a match, I could see
a kaleidoscope...

Stalagmite
Never have I felt the sun shine
Or heard blowing wind speak
Within this cavern I align
Frozen in stalactite confine
I dream drips of dew drops unique
Formed by the sun I seek
One of the countless stalagmite
Protect the cavern...

Blood Curdled At the Chilling Quill 3
Blood Curdled at The Chilling Quill 3
The night is too quiet for breathing
The faces form
Swelling from the pitch oily; floats
Mouthless screaming
Into monstrous caverns
Where fang-ed teeth stalactite
On slavering tongues
Cold suffocation jabs pillowed rocks
Deep into racing...

On Visiting the Luray Caverns
On Visiting the Luray Caverns

It was a place with huge, colored stalactite forms
With sharp stalagmites rising to meet the...

On Your Birthday
Twenty-six springs came soon,
To throne the shiny sun,
Susan H..The smiling moon,
To the stars that rushed and ran,
To surround this splitting "Lune",
To share happiness and fun,
On this planet shape in Dune,
A blooming rose came to light,
Greeting...

Secret Caverns of Mexico
My cavern bursts with bittersweet aura
— like globose berries, a cluster of tints.
The secret place — its musk, amidst the flora,
a limited conquest of feet — their prints.
Excitement rocks — I wade in hidden space.

Frostbitten
Pungent fresh pine scented breezes
Slither between boughs of cedar
Leaving frigid kisses to ride
Fragrant laurel chilled by winter
Slivers of January light
Bounce off the rich damp forest floor
Brittle stems of wild azalea
Wait pregnant one trimester more
Armies of...

Who they say looks like an old fossil
With hair which is so gray as can be
And bruised body bent just like a tree
