Five and a half months left of '08; I hope the stress and depression clears up soon
or this page may have to include '09 stuff.
Tortured artists, my ass.
*yawn*
~Snowflakes~
silently they swirl
magnificently
one by one they land
like the gentle kiss of a butterfly
on the palm of my hand
crystalline perfection
unexpected sheer beauty
a flash of quiet comprehension
and i smile knowing
that for a moment tonight
nature herself smiled upon me

Vibrations, A physical mystery
mathematical equations
the theory of gravity
cosmic explanations
vibrations of the superstring
a physical mystery
time as the 4th dimension
black holes and universes
multiply-connected
turning wood to marble
is disturbingly easy
with the kaluza-klein theory
resurrected

my darling sweet
lover in my heart
the thing that was
my bittersweet memory
is finally fading fast
a naive dream
but one i believed
what chance had i
to have true love?
i dared to hope
only a fool would try
always and forever
was the promise
four months reality
and i'm forever changed

my baby doesn't love me no more
he told me he loved me, always and forever
now he's run off with some cheap little whore
he killed me, he shot me in the heart
bang bang i'm dead
not a word, not a note i got
got nothing now cept the bullet in my heart
bang bang i'm dead

tigerstripes
jagged and smooth
incomprehensible curiosity
and a learned invisibility
washed out in shades of blue

~Ringoreien~
suns set and moons rise
burning fire deep inside
melt me away
please god
erase the tears i've cried
through the slit
i'll let my life flow
day and night
they'll never know
another stupid fight
i can't escape this hell i'm in
another step on the journey
let me know when the end begins
24 years and nothing to show
round and round and round i go

~shadows of the night~
up through the atmosphere
in living hues
there stood a woman
with hair like fire
untouched
and alone
she told no lies
and took no crap
independent
destiny
like a ray of light
over the golden sea
a simple convergence
a late emergence
and the moon hid
her face
a dizzying 180
on a clear summer night
see her heart shatter
forever lost
crystal clear
and rainbow-like
amid the shadows of the night

strong lips curve
in a rakehell grin
movements slow and sure
dark laughing eyes
full of sin
my oglala warrior
hunter from the golden plains
come a little closer
hear my cries
of love in the summer rains

have me grab me
make me sore
don't worry bout it baby
i'll be coming back for more
i need you i need your touch
rock my world c'mon feel the heat
rock me through the night
tangled beneath the bedsheet
i'll take your loving baby
and you'll take mine
at last we'll sleep deeply
and wake with the sunshine

winter stars all aglitter
in the wolf moon night
ancient fiery brilliance
precious jewels of varying hues
burning with an inner light
although fit for a king's treasure
or maybe a dragon's lair
those shimmering orbs
dancing across the sky
have been bound in heaven
and so must stay there

~Grandmother~
her eyes are bright and sharp
as she watches t.v.
lying there in her bed
the i.v. hook-up dangling
somewhere the nurses are busy
feeding, changing, adjusting
the daily routine leaves her alone
waiting, waiting
in the end
it's always the same
you leave heaven
and slowly decend
a walk in the park
a stroll through the fire
come back round
and it begins again

~Silence Falls~
deer caught in the headlights
of the oncoming car
i should've known
i wouldn't get very far
bright white highbeams
slicing through the air
i know i should run
but inside i just don't care
a thud and a muffled scream
horrible kiss of metal on flesh
then silence falls
as blood and bone unmesh
all around in the dark of night
the world goes on blissfully
unashamedly unaware
of the violent death of something pretty

The Edge of Chaos
Is waiting for me
Hellfire and brimstone
Painful ecstasy
Without and within
A Lovers' walk it's not
Let the fun begin

~Scars~
Scars
puffed up, reddened and angry
or flat and pale
smooth as silk
mark of aggression, frustration
apathy
things no one can see
scars
wide as hell, thin as a razor
furious slashing
or
meticulus patterns
destructive
that frame of mind
scars
like so many trails
leading to nothing
and nowhere
on this broken map of pain
can't hide anymore
now everyone can see
scars
in my body
scars in my mind
wounded psyche
try to leave the pain
behind
fighting fire with fire
But
I'm not as thin-skinned as I thought

your ploy won't work on me
your little gambit
to make me talk
i know what you're doing
it's written
all over your face
verbal joists of joviality
kindness
building foundations of friendship
persistant lover
i will balk and evade
smile
and i'll look away
charming cozener
perpetually single-minded
if i give you my number
will you just go away?
oh no, it's not you
it's me: i don't like you

Memento
Cherished memento hung on the wall
put there by wizend hands
Shattered relic of the Hero's Fall
at the Battle of the Burning Sand
Consecrated magick of the last Age
forged in the Rivers of Blood and Fire
Given strength by the quintessential Mage
mythical Keeper of the Serpent's Eye
Runic inscriptions traced in gold
digressed Sendings along blade and hilt
Secretive whispers from Magician old
foretold in that mysterious gilt
From the ashes shall rise another King
the Night Terrors will be driven away
The Circle of Life, the Dragon's Ring
Human, Animal, and Grain
What once was broken shall be made whole
and She who is ethereal will live again
