Resistance Is Futile


We are the Borg
We are cybernetic organisms supreme
Our domain extends
from the Omuro Valley of stars
to the Zekar great nebular isle
We destroyed our homeworld smelting pot ---
so that all would know,
resistance is futile


Premium Member Heavy Metal

When the setting sun settles
Upon the weeping western skies
That's when I earn my medals
Hearth fires from smoldering eyes

Crystalline orbs glow like rare art
Gemstones shine light on my eyes
Mining ore from cast-iron heart
Molten metal melts the skies

Smelting, my weeping western eyes
Gemstones spark life in my heart
Heavy metal forged from her skies
Casts raw iron into art

Heatwave

The Hedgerow birds are wilting,
even the circling hawk
gives them no alarm.

All is too low to the baking ground,
the hot irons of the sun
are smelting bones.
This listless stupor
threatens to unwind the mainsprings
of a limber joy.
The hot sky has no memory
it plants one moment,
into the next,
seeds squish and crush
the earth with a jejune heaviness.

The day will end wingless
in pools of turgid body-sweat.
We will simmer slow then
wingless unto God we go
wet & witless.
