Frozen eons erode

Draining away decades 

Drops of time running in rivulets

Into the cosmic sea.

Membranous integument is revealed

Glistening green in cold arctic sunlight

The Hyperborean cult gathers on bobbing

Floes of ice

Swaying, chanting, conjuring 

As a leviathanic eyelid lifts back from

A nictitating film that splits asunder

Pairs, parts, slides sidelong

Over the immense black orb of

an unblinking, all-seeing eye.

The Great Old One awakens!

The city leans in, whispering neon promises,
its towers standing like watchful giants in the dark.
Headlights race, red and white ribbons unraveling
a symphony of strangers,
all separate, yet bound together
by the heartbeat of the night.

He looks in my eyes

As serious as an angry parent

Staring like he will send me out of the zoo,

And back to my room.

The blowing leaves and trees around him

Stare at me, telling me to leave while I can

I have never felt so worried at the Zoo

Everything is screaming my name,

I can hear the gorilla from here

Behind the glass, I quickly pass

Rushing to leave.

In the depths

Crawling crawling

Down it crept

Growing growing

It never slept

Monster monster

In the depths

As dark as the abyss

The jellyfish

As clear as the sky

The ship

Disoriented & destroyed

The sea

as mysterious as

a broken heart

Twisting and turning

forming little stars

in the center of our sphere

Wonderful waking worlds

wondering young minds

forming little stars

forming tiny worlds

Another memorable day is on its cheeky way

Parading down the bumbling street.

Cars will bellow and people behold the city's beauty,

A diamond ocean sky sways fine fluffy swans

The glistening sun yawns in glimmers

Sprinkling peach blossom perfume like dew

Yes, the wind sneaks bakery bread.

Critters and cats play hide and tag.

"so different from us", those who spoke, sang,

screamed,

under the same vast sky,

under our stars,

and still found time to show us,

that they're here,

under our same stars.

To life. Who you marry,

And who you associate with.

Though it doesn't have a

Guide for everything.

There will be hardships,

Pain and sadness.

I prayed in the morning light

of my room. "Oh Holy Lord, guide me to salvation, sanctify me, for I have faith."

This land we've sowed, hailing the winds

That guide us to home where the Gods once stood.

The tremor of their hearts move the Earth,

A dance for pouring rain, answered calls.

We've known peace that you have torn.

A trembling storm brought upon you,

Swept across, they feel your vain.

We cry out to the Gods to restore the life that you erase.

1) It should be informed to you that I may be delayed on my travels later than I anticipated.

2) You must, my darling, forgive such an uncommon impediment that binds me.

3) As I pen this, I find myself unable to refrain from thinking of you.

4) I'm lost in an endless field, and I move as if I were a comet drifting through space.

5) I do hope I may elude this infernal plight and be next to you right now.

6) I cannot bear it...

7) Oh, how my tears fall like rain at the thought of you alone.

8) My love for you grows, dreaming of the moment we meet again.

9) As the wind whispers, the field of grass breathes in solace.

10) Alas! I yearn for you.

11) And, to be near you...

12) If you receive this letter, understand my love for you and how I am slowly disintegrating, piece by piece, with every moment away from you.

No sound in space

But I can hear it speaking

Whispering like the wind

Rumbling like an earthquake

I reach but never touch

I admire but never kiss

If I could stay here forever

I'd make the best of it

I'd bask in her warmth

I'd absorb her aura

It's my only Salvation.

The cavern lying beneath the sea of my heart

deep and dark,with an unknown end

the bottom of the pit hiding away

behind the cold deep water

where the sun's fingers stretch out, trying reach the bottom

but can only reach so far

Diving past my limit

with the water constricting and suffocating

as it holds me in its coldy

The unknown end must become known

But I can only go as far as the sunlight reaches

Before I must turn back to escape for air

With the water releasing its embrace

As I break the surface

My return will be the time

I finally reach the bottom

Revealing my truths to those deserving

who are waiting for my cavern of secrets

to finally open

Showing the unknown end

that was once hiding behind the shadows

Luke 12: 2-3

Seals are the epitome of irony. They're so

delightfully dumb, though none can match their level of intellect. They bring a sense of

worry alongside honor with their presence.

sweet sweet, hurt hurt

the hollow feather meets natural

so if they can, you must. Then

the monster will never scathe you. To be Strong in life's song is not to be laying dead in the wrong.
