The Gates

Lost consciences are passing the gates to divide the Kafkaesque instincts of freedom.

The Burning Man

Rolling there on the ground
petrol soaked a burning man

I could not whisper a sound
him suffering a youtube death 

Sitting here quietly writing at my desk
what possible help could I give but Kafkaesque

Questions galore


Do the leaves of our cups also turn yellow ?
The rooms of green grass collect cobwebs 
From the Kafkaesque vermin, fly away cuckoos 
Questions galore in the river's tide and ebb

Premium Member Scripts Of The Macabre

Creepy crawlies and heebie-jeebies
raw ripples on your skin kafkaesque;
You peek at that dark monstrosity,
cannot tell if it’s a trick or treat;
Nerves taunt with chimerical spectres;

Weepy eyes are stung by angry bees,
‘Pshaw!’ escapes a story so grotesque;
Flew through your mouth unable to flee,
caught swelled saliva starts to secrete;
Serves well scripts of macabre directors.

Kafkaesque

Now stand still and take the oath
define your choices by their trace
as this is the one and final case.
Fears are melting with confusion
a Kafkaesque pursuit for redemption
finding the end will be the exception.
''Guilty as charged''! Voices crawl
a door is thumped and people brawl
a Kafkaesque sharing of fortunes.
Lost consciences are passing the gates
where flaming light still awaits
to divide the Kafkaesque instincts of freedom.
