41/M/Jersey Shore, NJ Surreal poetry in a land of angels & demons
What a nostalgic moment Before dawn, before the birds Before the coffee, the eyes flutter open Among the constellation, take me home Wobbly legs take me outdoors Searching for circumpolar beauties Where is Venus now? Has she migrated to the western horizon? Or rose from the eastern banks of the Atlantic? Morning star slips away into the Light Awaiting, for the evening star to take its toll Through this aperture I see the angels Telescopic memoirs made of alchemy The chemistry between starlight & I The sun begins stretching its legs Slowly giving birth to gradual light In this unwavering colour I drench my soul Grayish blue skies give way to sunbeams The tint of the sky is omnipresent Starlight whisked away minute by minute A cloud swallows up all the stars A fading memento of what was The Great Light in the heavens observes The small minions known as humanity A planet of cosmic force sleeps catatonic A centrifuge of chaotic dissonance floats Cognitive dissonance rages like a storm In spite of the ever-present beauty Maybe if we observed Sirius Perhaps we would learn from the pages Written by the unseen magical hands of perception

Made of Alchemy (Stars)
I expect the fall of nature's natural order Nature slowly slipping into the erratic disarray, led astray by man's stupor A pulse of madness runs through the fuzzy speakers of the revolution The prophecy is here, propaganda lines the streets of your favourite city or town The decline of humanity's soul sinks deeper into stinking swamps of folly & toil A death dance with mankind's murderous axe is swung wildly Smashing all the trees with electricity You cull this pain one last time

The Folly & The Toil
Heinous atrocities pass before my eyes Deplorable is the armory of hated that dies Reprehensible is the lions roar, a bloodshed trail leading me to the bottomless Riddled with unyielding bruises & hidden scars,I must confess A sweating sea & darkest howls Into the devils darkest bowels Ships at bay threatened by the crest Sacrilegious wanderers threatened by Death The foam & swell crush the breakers Into the Mist is to meet the Undertaker Awaiting the sole survivor, sailors await now safe at bay Endless realms center around the lies they left to slay Swinging on a chandelier in the dark light As light displacement tricks my eyesight A malady of false alarm is rising up from my throat I have heard the Sirens song, leading me into the shewolf's bleating gloat The panic is reality television, spinning on a cord from the ceiling Progress marching forward unto the bloodbath, that has never been more revealing

DAMNATION
Poisonous is the snake, twin incisors make me weak, a foam produced by the mouth Ravenous is their thirst for blood, felled like a tree, my ****** roots exposed Veins course with the hatred for the swine & serpent, decapitated animals feed from the trough False-fed libertine, you are the carnal foothills of desire, seduction without a lack of mercy A library of secrets lie just under the surface, a litany of false truths hidden Power driven are the dire wolves, enraged in cages, ensnared by the Devil's trapdoor Hollow are the enemies, barking with pure impunity, ignorance worn thin by your predecessors Descent into the maelstrom, a new American justice is born, one of injustice Blackened hearts prevail, they sacrifice a soul, traded in for eternal damnation Immune & godless I enter the tomb of their unholy blasphemy, feathered oft their lips Service for the dearly departed, your cheap brand of justice is forlorn & lacking Nothing but a f*cking parasite leeching onto my skin, scrying into a black mirror This revelation of hellfire is a shadow of things to come...burn it to the ground

Portraits of Jericho
Abandon all hope, ye who enter here A sadistic murderer is on the loose this eve, a maddening catatonic monster Maimed by a vagrant beast, dragging it's broken body upon the dusky, stone wall Only in the shadows, do the nightmares mutate & clamor for the listless hearts Crimson thorns are slashing away at the gullet of this forlorn creature Lovely is the carnage of the heart betwixt The Captor & The Prey Mesmorizing animosity have I for the Great Unkindness, total consumation of evil Commence the battle cry, prepare the table for the flesh of the Innocent, o blasphemy Insanity's plea whispers sharply in my deafening ear, as demons are digging holes Swollen is the brain, a contusion to the bone, how I weep & laugh in languid sorrow Jeering lament for those who prepare the sacrament, cursing your name until the Final Calling Inflamed matrimony of purgatory, dark iniquities are stapled to your chestal cavity Led like sheep to the slaughter, jackals shriek at the eastern gate, crying for blood Eviscerating magnitude of holy terror, dear Holy Ghost bury me six feet underneath A penny for your thoughts with your carnal, bloodshot eyes, the captive reigns the victor Like an imp, I rip up the floorboards, tearing down the curtains, let the kerosene burn To hell with the Devil & the fallen weak-hearted, an inflamed tongue wags its last Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch’intrate (Abandon all hope, ye who enter here)

Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch’intrate
Haunting, the moon crests soundlessly Clouds shroud the eternal throne this eve Stardust lights up the deep, dank earth Even mountains bellow beneath the curse The eclipsing circle has begun thrice A momentum of fire burns deeply within The linear line of gravity has been inversed Dimensions of gold greet the parted lips Horizontal lines traverse my face over time Clockhands melt as greedy throats open Bribery neither coddled or dismissed Nuclear hands exchange true grift Shutting the mouth of poverty's increasing cry New galaxies ignite, the blue moon illuminates Raw light displacement play tricks on my eyes Swinging on a phantom chandelier in the dark Intricately I possess the spirit of the Fallen The darkened wound coagulates & entombs A spider's web is granted its morning dew Whilst in flames, twin ferns duet & burn Epic is the tragic devastation as chaos bleeds Shed a tear for freedom, the death of democracy Three cheers for sweet tyranny, taste the teargas An epoch of mercy shall run dry Yet God himself shall not show His faded face I wildly mismanage the depths of my sorrow And so too, the gods of earth betray the breath of man

INVERSION
O how still her golden plume of hair doth sit Both shiny & dull; vibrance abounds her still Atop a fair face of rosy cheeks & pouty lips Her pallor is of living colour, dreaming eyes What elixir hath transcended this poor dame to stuphor? Though in beauty she slumbers, she succumbs Transcendent, melancholy maelstroms await Hymns of evanescent choirs unfurl deafly Sweet Cherub lull to me to sleep Where seraphim's whisper something sweet Serenity cast thy gaze upon me & grace this humbled visage for eternity Traverse I upon your guilded path of quiet rest Plight I through valleys of irridescent light Canyons of blush wine hues meets my eyes Search I for you in the labyrinth of stars A starry sea of wonder how I wish upon The muted calligraphy of the Milky Way greets me 10,000 falling stars light my way I search for you in the After Where in your dreamland can I find you? In delicate fields of December snow I wander Under the swollen gaze of the lunar eye I pine Awaken your beautiful mind so I may wisk you away A waltz beyond the valley of dreams & a venture into the sea of light Two souls aligned in our celestial eventide The endeavours of The Dreammaker is ne'er done Nor is the journey of love...

The Decemberist
Asleep at dusk, awake at midnight The night calls to me (it calls out to me) Night demons wake in neon dreams In another land, where angels softly scream Pulling at the wings of the Divine How do you make me feel claustrophobia? My own skin is pulled taut over the surface Maddening doom is giving me the chills Ladders traverse off to the lunar beauty Towers of rebuttal only quake in boots Your cursed castle is crumbling down Faltering on the ledge of absolutely nothing Conjured shadows rise as fleeting enemies A cornered apparition, the poltergeist is rising The snapback of the crypt is revolving A sip of the bad blood, drunk on the tears of a dying sun

The Poltergeist Is Rising
Quiet adoration shines brightly Only rain covers our tears of joy I find hope & redemption in your arms Your gentle & quiet sincerity makes my heart skip a beat My soul quivers within a newfound joy Your laughter makes my heart smile A spire of safety I find in your heavens Goldilocks coloured strands of hair you possess, you give me sanctuary darling Waves reach out as high tide begins Tidal waves threaten to spill my blood You threatened the adoration would grow The crashing of the current is akin to your intense love & devotion in me Awakened to sweetest endeavours of love I seek safe harbor in your warm presence Once more I ride euphoria's wings with you Your embrace is a golden embrace, safe & sweetly in your company I feel enlightened Hope is the positive momentum I seek You pace along with me in the darkness The carpet shows all our secret steps Lead me into your world where sunshine resides & let me rest alongside you

Sweet Asylum Part II (Where Sunshine Resides)
A candle by the open window flickers Hot tea awaits, once lukewarm now frigid The scent of warm, baked chocolate chips scent lingers, casting a web of nostalgia Melting into a cookie's delight, O euphoria Dreams roll in like fog on a lake Exhausted from this terrain of rocks & briar The sunrays burst through the melancholy Daybreak finds the heat inducing wrath At the break of dawn, dusk closes her eyes An empire of guilt comes crashing down Days are hot as whispering nights are long The scurrilous hand of insomnia awakens me Cool ambition flickers in these hazel eyes Emotionless motion comes in waves I accelerate faster leaving the past in the rear view mirror Words & phrases, ancient & modern motifs surround me Rosewater keeps me level on these dark days What flavored beverage lies before me? Gods of nectar have prepared the sacrament
