Song Of The Tortured

Around me.

Circling.
Like knives.

Twisting.

Laughter in cruelty.

Grinning.

They are so joyful in
their malice.
My punishers.
My liberators?

Singing.
I am surrounded.

A thousand hands,
A thousand screams.

Release me!

In a world of
pain and red.

There is no respite.
No peace.

But in all this a
kind of freedom.

A NEW MEANING.

It must be spread.

I am
So alone
But
I have my
Oldest friend.
Dementia.

At its core sanity. A truth
that will be spread.

Prepare your minds.

Cross Road

Don't look at me, look at her. Her glassed, nearly dead emeralds that gaze pass your soul. Crimson strands that once lit up with passion. Now only fall like autumn leaves.

My Shadow

The slow black shadow. Swallowing my feet. Stalking me. A depressing black. A friend till the end. Or a dark presence. Neither I will ever know. But she leaves me at dark. Leaves to who knows where.

The Voices

A thousand distorted voices Trapped behind the glass. Taking a moment to fleet, Letting the pain pass. A thousand distorted voices Shouting to me as one.

Ramblings No. 1

She sat on the ledge. It was truly a beautiful city. Elder trees lined up, exactly and precisely where they needed to be. Pigeons took turns perching on their branches.

Infinite Fog

Thick fog rolls in Blanketing everything in sight. It's like a wall Stopping me from seeing right. It is not white. No, it's spots our vision can't reach. It's a restraint. I'm blind.

Loss

Hello my name is Loss, and I bend backs, and snap necks, and dance between the fingertips of dead bodies.

Death's Lament

I look in the mirror. I see no reflection. No skull-head, no sickle, nothing looks back. The man I remember From yesteryear's picture Is lost in translation, needle in stack.
