blackest wings scale higher than mountains
Blackest wings, scale higher than mountains
in the chill of tonight's air,
scarred and bleeding from within,
determined to reach her lover's side,
A voice calls out to her voyage
but her vision gets lost
as it starts to drizzle and rain.
She collides & in such pain,
her claws trying to embed in the side
of the rocks but she keeps skidding

Off The Scale
The older I get the more I think
Of my very last day on earth
It's almost impossible not to think about it
I'm not obsessed by it
But when I hear of all these famous people
That I've known for a lifetime
Passing away at or around my age
It makes me stop and wonder
When my final day will arrive
Will I

Scale Moves
Here's a song lyrics that incorporates the themes and ideas you provided:
[Intro]
(Sensual R&B beat starts playing)
In the old world, where grandeur reigns
Luxury and opulence, the elevated trains
Royalty and high-class, a world apart
Where the elite reside, and the wealthy start
[Verse 1]
I'm feeling like a king, got my crown on tight
Maybach music playing, it's a royal night
I'm

His Scale
I fill your cup with light from sun up
till sun down with
the brightest of smiles
Don't frown when it appears you're
running on empty for
you'll be replenished
by the mile
This one life is a game over the
heads of many so listen
closely to what
I say
A man with many hats I have styles
for days one for

St Pancreas, and stupidity
Stupidity's result reigns, on Englands trains, flooding in London
With disruption most dire' yet Ashford is sidlined Ebbsfleet
Was retired??
Thus must cause some Ire? Ignoring much infrastructure designed
For the best, in tourisam in buisness its not a big guess?
Laissez-faire, and we will find things likely will thrive, human
Scale; human values in each land must preside!

Five Point Eight On the Richter Scale
They say there's a first time for everything
My first time ever feeling the unsettling effects of an earthquake
Albeit, it was ONLY 5.8 on the Richter Scale
It happened during our holiday in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic
We were roughly 60 km from the epicentre
But still found it a little unsettling to say the least
The locals didn't even

An Equal Scale
I do love you all
on an equal scale,
I'm ready to tell another beautiful tale;
many times before,
I held it inside and hesitated to call...
too afraid to share!
These words area hard to say with thrill,
I wasn't given love and felt cheated by life;
I'm changing all that with a stronger will,
who can bribe fate and not pay

Earthquake and Japan
The bizarre scene when Earth has been pressured
And on Richter Scales this can be measured:
When the immovable readily quake,
Not a single hard rock failing to shake…
A punishment too familiar to Japan
At a period hitting her like a pan.
Often her feared National Tragedy
She’d kept devising a ‘Stop Strategy!
How preventable it was ‘Quite Doubtful!
Whenever it struck

On a Scale of Good To Bad
Promised myself, today would be a goodie
On a scale of good to bad
Some days are diamonds, some days are stone
Yesterday wasn't as good as I've had
So many things can turn it around
That really seem unimportant
Like cheery hellos from neighbours and friends
Small things are just reinforcement
For life to turn out the way you envisioned
Is up to

Dragons Scale Underneath the Skin
Frighten being full of bright scale
Treated legend like Holy Grail
Kept from all story for all times
With wings like angels silver lines
Wake like demons with screeching sound
Chained down like slaves that are bound
In dungeons, realm, and ocean star
With size, rich, gold, and avatar
The focus is hidden within
Walking among committing sin
Pain sorrow because of immorals
Living long

Ex Machina Tempores - Rep
this last step...
protruding veins under the skin,
the other imperfections
and these eyes,
from distance.
scaly is the word for it,
brittle skin.
it's not good,
evokes the relentless of time.
it is always destruction that rushes swiftly.

in this case ex-home.
the color looks gray,
but it is condition.
something that would be solemn in books,
but utterly brutal in reality,
because to the touch it conveys
