Shadows stir beneath iron skies,
The blood of gods in my veins lies.
With every step, the ground does quake,
And heaven trembles in my wake.

On throne of stone, my will commands,
A king of night with blood-stained hands.
I stand unyielding, cold, and tall,
None may oppose, none shall fall.

Whispers of fate in silence scream,
For in my grasp, the world shall bleed.
With each decree, the earth shall break,
The gods weep for the sins they make.

I reign supreme, the silent call,
None shall wield the axe but I—none at all.
In shadows deep, where light is frail,
I walk as king, the eternal trail.
"Iron Reign" is a dark, mythic monologue spoken by a godlike sovereign whose power shakes the heavens. Blending apocalyptic imagery with regal menace, the poem explores the burden of dominion, divine vengeance, and the chilling solitude of absolute rule.
Ash and ember choke the sky,
Universe’s own fury roaring high.
Fortunes crumble, kingdoms fade,
Yet none lament the price they’ve paid.

The blaze runs wide—men starve, men kneel,
But ruin plants what fire will heal.
From blackened soil, fate finds its thread,
Forged anew where hope once bled.

The path is jagged, lit by flame,
A trial etched in war and name.
Those who burn may carve the way—
Through serpent smoke and shadowed sway.
In Path of Wrath, the poet conjures a scorched world where destruction is not merely an end, but a violent rebirth. Fire becomes both judgment and genesis—cleansing the old to forge a new fate from ash. This poem walks the edge between ruin and resolve, echoing themes of apocalyptic reckoning, sacrifice, and the relentless force of transformation through chaos.
I do not flinch—not even breath—
Am I a seer, or bait for death?
My thoughts drift smokeward—dim, askew—
A mind invaded, cleft in two.

I dance on wires through fractured air,
Where silence shatters, wisdom dares.
Through fractured mirrors I am hurled—
Each step reveals a spiral world.
I follow cries the ravens rend—
Crowned by madness, I ascend.
“Crowned by Madness” explores the perilous threshold between vision and delusion. The speaker—part seer, part sacrifice—navigates a fractured psychic landscape where revelation comes at the cost of sanity. This poem is a descent into the spiral of insight, where each step shatters the known world.
Cosmic fingers sketch the void—
A dance of stars: serene, destroyed.
Beast and man in fleeting union,
Flesh and thought in strange communion.

Birds cry out with cryptic voices,
Hearts pulled toward endless choices.
What was truth now slips its tether,
Lost in tides that bind no weather.

Nations build with fear’s direction,
Walls of pride, not true protection.
Martyrs rise in flawed succession,
Stone to dust in slow regression.

Yet when the dreamers pierce the haze,
And light ignites the fractured maze—
As planes give way to boundless vast,
Your breath becomes the world at last.
When Dreamers Dare is a philosophical and visionary poem that explores the tension between chaos and creation, illusion and awakening. Set against a cosmic and societal backdrop, it traces humanity’s struggles—internal, political, and existential—while ultimately celebrating the transformative power of dreamers who transcend limits to illuminate new realities
The king owns nothing—yet all men kneel.
No crown adorns him; all thrones yield.
He walks where death and gods repent,
Each step a quake the Fates ne’er dreamt.

He loosed the nectar stars once brewed,
And forged new laws in iron mood.
Destiny crowned him, marked his soul—
The will that forges his own scroll.
“Maker of Destiny” is a mythic meditation on power beyond crowns or thrones. It imagines a figure who walks past gods and death itself—not to inherit fate, but to forge it. In a world ruled by prophecy and divine law, this being becomes the author of his own scroll.
In stillness deep, where shadows bend,
I watch, unseen, the long world end.
One pale hand stirs the winds to sigh—
The breath is lost; the soul slips by.

The earth still shivers at my touch,
Yet none take heed, nor feel too much.
Faint whispers drift through moonlit air,
While ether shrugs, too still to care.

Most strive to unlearn my name,
Denying me through wealth and fame.
I am the law, life’s final thread—
The end will come, and all things wed.
In this poem, Death is not a shadowy figure lurking in the dark, but a calm, inevitable force—a quiet presence that watches over the cycle of life. Through stillness and restraint, the speaker embodies Death, offering a meditation on its impartiality and its role in the greater order of things. Here, Death is not feared or mourned, but acknowledged as a natural law, ever-present yet unseen.
I string my bow ’neath star-flayed skies,
Where silence coils and mercy dies.
No tremor stirs my frozen breath—
I draw a line ’tween life and death.

The twang is wrath, the arc—a prayer,
Each arrow steeped in midnight air.
No shield withstands my patient aim;
I **** not for glory, but to end the game.

Cloaked in stillness, I haunt the rift,
A ghost whose gift is a final shift.
I do not miss. I do not flee.
The king won’t fall—he’ll cease to be.
“Archer’s Resolve” presents a cold, precise assassin whose every movement is honed to perfection. Set against a cosmic and shadowed backdrop, the poem explores duty without emotion, and death as an act of balance rather than vengeance. Each line draws tension like a bowstring—tight, measured, and lethal.
