The dark devils will enter with fiend my anguished heart beating vengeance, hit hard by the moonless dreary darkness, and make my boiling enraged blood turn into lacerating incisive lancet. The sinister...

Sunrise and sunset, a time to reflect, In the stories of the age, we must respect, For under the sickle moonlight, Mythical transformations bear flight. Werewolves howl, vampires roam, Mermaids swim, unicorns stir foam, Shape-shifters, fairies, and shore, All come alive, under the moon...

Won’t it up get one’s hackles That one often tasks tackles Others’ Wrists not in shackles For what one down to buckles? You others tag ‘The Fickle’ Fit only for the sickle; Expo sure to ridicule: Lots of in Article That you know “Just Bicycle” Swearing...

We had dreams of being who we wanted to be I still remember we playing around the backyard and riding bikes Imitating our various superheroes and everything seemed possible Strong and happy we were and we fought through every day fiercely In the back of our minds nothing could stop us Now I am drenched heavily by this...

Man With Sickle By: Tom Wright 8/13/01 Man in black armed with death's sickle, God, gave thee charge of time. Man's time on earth is but a trickle, Diminished, by each timepiece chime. Naught on earth can stop, nor slow, Though through our vanity, some may try. We rush as springs to and fro, Gathering things, and know not why. ...

White gold, mist beams, Earth’s cold eye. Red blood, haze stars, night’s dead sky. Orange flame, clear rays, heart’s hope known – Black tomb, ink clouds, soul’s doom nigh. Written 28 February 2019 for Newman Prize for Chinese Literature...

Sickle moons have shone above me In the dark of night, Standing on the mountain edges Writing by their light. Fall with eagle wings of colour Soared the starry skies, Called its sickle moon of copper To enchant my eyes. Winter passed with silent footsteps In one silent night, left the world a stainless canvass And a moon of white. Spring woke as an early blossom Blooming in...
