Born Beneath Plutonian Skies
I was born beneath Plutonian skies, Where silence held the scream of centuries, And the air was thick with memory— Of kings undone and gods forgotten. In the shadow of Saturn’s gaze, My soul arrived not to live, But to remember… To tear through veils stitched by empires, To speak in the language of dust and fire. They marked my chart with fear— Pluto in...

If Vulcan Wakes
If Vulcan Wakes (c) 2025 by The Entangled Pair If Vulcan fully wakes again and shakes his fiery dreads unleashing hell in all it's fury on our fearful heads I tell you once again my friends in words of common rhyme we perish not in watery graves but in the fires this time can't see the forest for the trees can't...

Premium Member Darkness into Life
Hell's fury ignites the tormented winds of horrifying fire. Earth's howls in pain, as its land degenerates into a nightmare. Swirling red dust and sand tortured and tormented the fallen. Blistering is the swirling ash and flame beckon into its calling. Tornadic flames and ash forming a bird of fire, she screeches in pain. Unfolding its magnificent wings of fire...

Between Margins and the Dreams
"I would like to see you living in better conditions." Hafiz Exiled and devoured by smart bombs, The alchemy of history, rises above The dazzling explosions, and the fury of shock waves. Read the winds that blow in time’s face, Of high struggles and passages of hope Between the margins and the dreams, Recurring parentheses in ancient books. They live in their offering,...

Endless conflicts
I'm torn between two distant worlds ~ one steeped in wickedness and sin, the other pure and righteous; my mind drifts like oil on water. Alluring is the glory of heaven, promised if I remain pure and holy, yet enticing is the frivolity hidden in jollity they call "sin." My mind imagines the afterlife the Bible depicts, yet I savour worldly pleasures my flesh...

Spiritual possession
Through an opal window I saw a cloud, changing colors from blue to orange to red, like a burning fire. I was swept off my feet, floating on a bridge between this world and the next. My body no longer in my possession, I hear voices beyond my choices, juggled on a hawser like a puppet on strings ~ my entire being a...

Covered by cloud the out-of-sight tops of soaring towers, Buckling under their own weight, beginning to topple from Those airy heights; The gaping breach - the once impregnable outer wall! The inner keep ablaze with greedy, insatiable flame; A thunderous cacophony of crashing cymbals and blaring Horns; Wide-eyed lurching panic desperately grasping at the fleeting Moment... And the whole...

(“Pandora’s Box”, 2014, original pen and ink and oil) Pandora’s Box I don’t know who she was, What she did or how she did it, And maybe as the first it was sublime Or maybe she was just another woman With the kind of perfect snatch To launch a thousand ships On a sea of broken hearts, But Pandora certainly left her...

His Broken Soul
His Broken Soul I was a spark in morning’s light, But that... has faded out of sight. I don’t know, Father—do You forgive? Yet clouded with pride, I struggle to live. My heart bleeds. I only wanted to be seen. But it’s been centuries—maybe more— And still, I stand outside Your door. Father, I confess, I did You wrong—and I regret. But this...

Premium Member Nebulous Horizon
When alabaster twilights rain upon celestial roses, with tear-soaked trinkets of ancient aromas ~ I wear their amaranth scents upon acrylic wrists, and tie my terracotta threads of twinkling trust with those topaz ribbons of reminiscent tales, slowly floating in an opal olive fog ~ where a bouquet of bones decorates my heart-shaped coffin and this hoaxed bride, veiled in...

Phoenix's Lament
I rose from flames that kissed my wings, A timeless dance where rebirth sings. Ash and ember, my cradle, my shroud, I burn anew, fierce and proud. I watched them gaze, their fragile eyes, Afraid of death, of fate’s disguise. Yet I am death and life entwined, A creature forged beyond the blind. The fire does not scorch it shapes, it molds, It claims...

Premium Member Let it -----RAIN, Lyrics
I'm trapped in this cave Enslaved by a legion of chains Your puppets jeer and taunt Painting the wall as droplets fall The cobra dance in the flame Scarlet and velvet choke the air Till a heartbeat broke in the lair Creeping echoes from the deep Stir my memories from their sleep Your eyes hollowed Your heart borrowed You .... whore, let it ..... rain! Volcanic...

Premium Member A Tryst With Fantasy
He's closed the blinds. His twilight dawns. A midday reverie. Within his mind, a vision spawns, awash in mystery. * A levee bursts, torrents crash free— a castle from a dream. Atop his throne, court bent on knee, all hail: "Long live the King!" * Then suddenly, the hall doors boom. "A beast! A beast has come!" As herald wails, and dread consumes: "The end! The...
