Confused human, often feeling out of place amongst his species. Frequently making social faux pas and waiting for the day he gets found out: what for? Don't know but it's bound to be something bad.
Sons of light and darkness. Twist. Reach for the new sun, Clothed in night passions. A flicker of existence entrances Us all - confuses; brings joy and hurt Till we become the Sons of Nothing.

Sons of Light and Darkness
In a single tear lie several sorrows; In a single sorrow lie several tears.

Tears and Sorrow
Shall I compare thee to a cup of tea? Thou art less lovely and less temperate. Your voice winds do shake my tranquillity, And fair attentions are too hard to get. Sometimes too hot your critical glare shines, And often is your vicious tongue untrimmed; And every sip of love in time declines, With swift return to lover's lounge much dimmed. Your sharp heat shall never cool to comfort, And all sugar in the world won't sweeten, The bitter beating of your blackened heart; Nor shall the greed of your soul be beaten. As long as men can drink a cup of tea, So long lives my hate and disgust for thee.

Shall I Compare Thee To A Cup Of Tea?
I went to our home at five thirty, as arranged. It stank of 'not my house,' and my things were shyly poking from behind your things. Your mum, I guess, had made a huge, huge collage of pictures: of nine years of you, your family, our son, but not me. I was leaking out the cracks in the doors and walls. My son would see nothing of me. I gathered what I could and left.

As Arranged
You led me to the lighthouse, squat on the rolling lake of grass. Beneath the great guard we slid through the marshmallow heat to the edge of the land. Pressed into the sand below a blue sky, together we stopped, and let the lapping water wash.
