Impatient dawn.
Lampposts froze through the pergola of winter.
Limp from exposu...

And all of the signs that lighted our way
Now darkened and silent had lead us astray
In our haste to proc...

When Summer Rain Came

Thrust in the centre of the storm, all I could see, was you

...The winds raged, the rain pelted

Yet, in my bedroom, all was cosy and warm
The fireplace roaring with plenty of logs.

I stood behind the thick window p...

Rousseau in the Happy Land of Sleep

...The first modern man and honest human
A lone father from Plato’s Republic
An innocent dove corrupted by man
But who learned how to play his soul’s music
Though his flesh by decree was frail and s...

Hourglass of Primal Wolf Skulls

...Why does he provoke me to anger?

He stalks among us -  with his song -
