The night envelops my senses,
turning inward I am catapulted
centered within the depths of mind's own eye.
From that place,
everything is washed anew.
The desolate streets,
damp with the night's resin
narrow and sparse with activity,
he is my only consort.
Creation is birthed from darkness.
I surrender myself entirely
to the whims of my beloved.
Grant me your grace,
won't you cross my path with the truths
of which you know I yearn.
Formless within the rabbit hole
my endless abyss,
I beckon thee forth
from the cavern of secrets,
let me breathe you in.
I offer no escape,
from this cold and desolate world.
Only a promise;
in my ***** of dreams nests a reservoir,
warmth abounds in this land of imagination.  
Come,
stoke me.
Lay rest to the tireless embers,
let me strain no more.

Your exquisite demeanor mocks all
as I bare my soul
this make-believer.
Weakness wafts
waves of the despicable,
how they wish of darker times.
Irony rules here.
Consort with me,
my loves.

Oh yes, you run.

On into the darkness,

enveloped in a cocoon

of your own making.

Drown in your deceit.

Drown in your decrepitness.

You silly man.

Layer upon layer you build,

mask after mask is replaced.

Blood seeps along the edges,

you carve too deep.

Dancing with your dagger,

you slipped up didn't you?

Like a jackal in disguise,

teetering on the edge of destruction,

for control was yours.

Isn't that what you said to me once?

Oh you silly man.

Cackle upon cackle,

lights up your epic fall.

Accompanied by an

oh so familiar feeling.

Dread at the recognition.

For you thought you abolished it long ago.

Along with your mother,

along with your brother,

you rid yourself of them,

just like you did this.

For vulnerability rears it's pathetic head,

and the stench alone

has you revolting.

Desperate you claw your escape route.

Power hungry mongrel you become.

Attila the ***.

You say you have no pride?

You say you have no ego?

You say any conflict is not of your doing?

You silly man.

Run amuck with distortion,

impossible it is to recognize yourself.

So riddled with defamation

you have victimized yourself.

And worse,

you have betrayed your own soul.

Smooth.

So smooth.

Just right baby, oh so right.

You make me feel,

well,

        you know how you make me feel.

So good baby, oh so good.

Round and round we go,

        on this merry-go-rounda life.

Oh so merry

        when I'm with you.

Hey hey, what'd I say?

Oh you know

don't you baby?

Do it right,
do it mean,
do it so smooth,
do it a sweet combination now.

Lovin' you alright,

all night,

every night.

Through lifetimes we are catapulted,
though only minutes have passed.
          Murky depths swim to lure me in…
                  Danger lurks.
          I hear them haunt,
                  ghosts of forgotten lullabies.
Drifting interlude fills my lungs like smoke,
          gasping for what is real…
                  I scarcely know.
          Like the silky beat of a wing in flight,
                  I am held within its merciless motion.
          Fingers caress the intimate world I have created,
                  born within its possibilities.
          Seductive lips wrought my vision,
encasing a world of mystery…
                  I am transfixed.
          Words seep out along wisps of the empty,
                  re-writing history as I live it.
          Gifted the presence of insatiability,
                  desire beyond all that insanity limits.
          The peak of the mountain,
                  disillusioned by foggy drapery.
          Love crimes baby,
                  the sheer passion of your spirit.
          Passing through mirrors of time,
                  density is transformed.
          Ease baby…
                  Ease is King of the Realm now.
          Command me as I have only done to others before.
