Fog chokes the oxygen out of the room
Insomnia screams in my ear canal
Disruptions at the bewitching hour
The veil is low as divination climbs in
Spiritual carnage, invisible warfare
As angels & demons coerce the human landscape
Early mornings portraits of you
The rise and fall of the chest
Irises dilated inside the nesting cocoon
Animal faces echo at morning break
I hear as a fly's solitary wings pulse
Mimicking a heartbeat, reverberate
Open embrace of the celestial void
Fear is a door in the heart

A drop of rain in a hat.
blackcat Jul 11
A drop of rain in a hat
A pebble dropped into a hurried stream
A muted ripple echoes,
Reverberation into the balmy seas
Where jaged nightmares turn to    
  the nicest of pleasantries

Let my warmest hopes
  and even warmer daydreams by
Saturate my soul with
  Nature's calming heart beat
May well-wishes & surreal worlds
  pull me up against the currents deep

Surreal, the new breath of wings,
  as they steady, as they wander,
  where ever they may flow-
  new music begins, inside of each  
  other
Every emotion feels brand new;
life just started to crackle with
electric for a solitary few-
like a brand new box of paint colours

Sweetest love poured out like cool water
  against a heat wave
Poetry read to me as unspoken Wisdom
Words flow like a mysterious birthing    
  of a goddess by twilight-
Gather my helium thoughts floating
  up above all this negative apathy,  
  o glowing euphoria! my soul, new
  sight!

Intoxicated eyes gaze
  back at a pale, faded grin

Queer uninvited smiles
  unseat my dull desires

Teared, sorrid orbs are
  complicit no more

Cold & unpleasant i feel ,
  my skin crawl as you...

Commune with the dead,
  1arkness's sullen countenance

Deep-seeded resentments fester
  like a wound, to rot alone
  
In debauchery! The corridor races
  endlessly, yet timeless, the momentum

Fail mires the spiritual portal,
  decades toil the body's will

The years have been cruel,
  Heaven's call gets a little lighter

Wanton, I crave the deep recesses
  of your love, o my earthbound soul

The Decades have worn
  down the spark in his irises
  his trudge has slowed this path

Suffocating on Armeggedon's call
  until the darkness closes in

Circling down the drain-
  just to recoil & burn it down
  to beeline back to the centre

Debauchery lines the landscape,
  parallel to curtailed breathing

Liberate the Doves, send light over,
  controlled thinking like the brainwashed

At night the disease slips into...
  the death machine

Tangible, it pains me to breathe anymore
  thorns to the side, gasping acid water

the burrowing
blackcat Jul 8
come now, a little closer
so that I may judge you limb by limb
spiders cocoon beneath the layers of the epidermis
ruddy roaches crawl out of the moth-worn crevices
bits of newspaper to block the sunlight
torn pieces of screen protect my eardrums from the burrowing (insects)
see the carpet in distress (indefinitely)
rusty water pipes, the brown water
the chemicals coagulate

i leave a candle lit at eventide
a layer of thin plastic buries the corners
a crooked flame warms the black hands
the lost art of phrenology; as a plastic soul erupts and drips as wax
soul burns like a stubborn paperclip-plastic errodes and bites the silence
tiny crystalline structures on the surface
atrophy of the thought processes


teeth come jarring down on the pavement
a phantom fist pierces the flesh
the brain separates the physical from the mental
emotional bruises return in the same hollow spaces
familiarize yourself with the bold truth
self-will binds to the adversary of pain
exaggerated waves of destiny crash and form cresting white waves
opposing pressures align at the base of the spine
the practice of regarding the smooth places

(Down in the dirt
   Down in the Earth
    Drown in the Earth
      Another six feet South)

Summer gaarden wand'rer-
Where has your wanderlust taken us?
Strange delirium of weightlessness
Euphoria's outstretched arm reaches  
  down 'neath faerie clouds
O holiday! to traipse among the beauty  
  of nature's subtle trail!

Quite literally-
Stumbled into this mystical realm,
Thinking I will trudge this happy hollow for a spell
Daylight erupts with momentous  
  sunlight, almost celestial completion
Illumination upon the precipice  
  journeyed-to breathe, to ponder life  
  & fragile infinties

A grinning path soon gave berth to  
  moments of arduous activity
Stunning even, were the incline of  
  rocks I scaled upon by hand:

'and even Angels
   littered the  
    ground 'neath
      with golden rays
        & upon this path
         a solace & a blessing'

A hike resumed around the corner
The pulse-inducing sidewinder  
  produced sweat on my brow, yet
  happily grueled on
Pebbles scrape sandstone leading to the final bend-the woodlands flatten
Upon final inspection deciduous trees  
  part & crystal diamonds sparkle
  loudly
A gentle snoring brook abreast an  
  inviting lake

Shadowed ferns nestle among the breath-taking greenery
Bright sunflowers wave hellos
Marigolds and tulips sweet salutations
A bumblebee's flight of shimmered skies
Raucous yet meticulously serene-
The snowy tail of the approaching doe
A hummingbird came to me scarcely a stones throw away

The frogs burp loud furrowed cheer
Reeds line the solitary forge of water
Baffled orioles bounce their cry aloft
Adrift in this sea of Euphoria's
  champagne
Lighting lanterns of positivity,
affirmation against the low vibrations
Clinging to this lyrical paradox

Wondrous lyrics voiced aloud, how
  they have wings of doves
A fairietale of stories have flown
Connoisseur of pleasantries, take me through your golden groves
And spend the hours swimming through the keyhole of my own psyche
Bliss, bliss indeed, is endless

August Pyres
blackcat Aug 2
A mysterious, endless hell is unveiling
August pyres incinerate the white washed sympathies
Im only here for the psychodrama trauma, the ministry of misery coalesces
Tugging on grenade pins for the thrill of it all, sweet devotion of elusive arts

The simplicity of futures carry us through the inevitable gravity
Words are unfaithful & cruel to me
Tsunamis idle into the aqueous madness
Miniscule sands of time reverberate
Clocks pulse backwards, sinister disposition on the second hand click
Beautiful butterfly wings extinguish
Pale comparison of spiritual questioning
Which god do you worship now?
Passage of orbit, lunar lullabies swing

This canyon of tears are only imbibing in the depths of violence
Slumber I inside the cacophony of seckrets
Coffin for bedlam, poison for the masses
Sleepy eyes are treason beaten into your faulty descention
Sacrament wine for the seance hands
Debilitating atrophy finds me in low land

Lucidity so stagnant, the undertow tolls
The crashing mind leads to disarray
Slaughter romance as the past draws me
Let's become friends amongst the anarchist wake
Overspend my emotions, your blankless stare woos me
Into the neon boulevards I stumble on

Lethargic breeze just floats on by this eventide redemption
Darkness voyages in a blink of an eye
Suffering submission slowly sanguates
Eternal offerings oddly betray the beyond
The chasticesment will trudge this divining row
A speakeasy of former impressions
I awake within the reactor

the heartbeat's burgeoning call
the disillusionment of purpose
brings the accursed to their bruised knee
crestfallen angels bend with a baffled gaze
backwards, faces stare into the depths
of cherubim daze
a golden labyrinth of dread breathes,
watch the mischievous smiles fade as they dissipate
jokers jest, their wide open grins are
a source of uncomfortable curiousity
harlequin & porcelaine dolls pine for their maledaption of independence
one thousand gems of sand falling thru the hourglass brings magick & life
a class of budding pantomime,
a life led just too epic and tragically broken
a true tragedy of runes cast
Nauthiz, the lot has been dealt

FLATLINES
blackcat Aug 2
Apocalyptic skies shudder again
Abandoned havens cannot hide you (in time, Revelations will bleed black)
Feel the mechanical; the machine begins
The disillusionment churns, oxygen levels dissipate, blurring the lines

The air burns as acrid smoldering ash descends slow
Sanctuary flatlines as Death pulses & seethes with hot hornet's precision
Impending doom suffers the senses
Morality sustains this swell of ink

The boiling point is beyond reckoning
Moral sustainability is a laughable crux
All of these events lead me within the delirium cloud,
My senses deteriorate and implode as I process this diabolic conundrum

Acid bleaches your festering words,
Decades of soil now has come clean
Purgatory homes your silence the years have eviscerated
"All your words come out of your mouth like rotting teeth"
This exact moment of dread drains you

Thunder Moon
blackcat Jul 10
The driving rain, the driving rain
The bone drenching kind-
The wound licking sting still feels the same
Heart quivers slow as rain fills the still lungs
The moon hangs low in the distance
The resistant rivers rise in reverence


Torrents of aqueous onslaught persists
Vertigo-inducing car lights pierce the sight
Wipers on windshields hum a discordant sound
The symphony of thunder endures above
Silhouettes of shadows slink in the corners, hear their ghoulish moans- lo!
As the ultraviolet lightning strikes the underground, such a luminescent glow

Woodland creatures emerge to the edge of the forests clearing
Summit's glory, ascension of such a panoramic wandering
Potions of mushrooms array, white sage absolution, musky phantoms abide by air
Cleansing by fire, embers i breathe, i imbibe, i inhale treasonous poisoning
Earth rumbling delight, warring gods continue as narcisstic skies burn
Honor bestowed for Natures hallowed urn
blackcat Jul 7
Melancholy-
The shadow I slip inside of.
Longest is-
The exhaled breeze, I faint slowly into.
Withered are the mid-morning flowers,
Craving oasis, they slumber,  awaiting respite from the incensed heat.
In pursuit of the lofty endeavours,
With emphatical absolution- we greet this morning's golden rays.

Chipmunk in transit, such a graceful being of stars graces us by day break
Robin & rabbit emerge from foxholes nights
Shaking off the encroaching chirps of daybreak rhyme
Wild animals roam around this waking utopia,
Wild flowers bid adeui in their various shades of colours,
The vibration of life is upon us now
Its the all consuming fire

The Fear Cage Pt. 1

And in those moments, he grew-
Not because of any material success
But the extistential fear of failure,
The fear inoculum, the fear cage
Pinpoint anxiety paralyzes the mind and body hangs in suspension
The quiet four walls are sliding closer
The momentum of ages he built
Sand castles in the hurricane's roar
Functioning sinkhole, it was only time
Black holes keep pulling me into the darkest corner of stars
Micro (the space in between )
Macro (the space that remains)

Isolation
Oscillation
Facilitating Oblivion
Quiet melancholy tears
Fascination with electricity
Frozen rivers chill to the edge of bone
Caught inside the darkened current
Drenched in the technicolor reality
Constructs of psychics & gravity tested
Reeling from the pandemonium
Disguised amusement, digital guillotine
Caught inside the wild enclosure
Solitary are these barred eyes
(Ravenous are the wicked, vile wolves)
Evolutionary path of an apex predator
Facsimile of a copy, no god founded in science
The piercing grind of gears incessantly announce volumes produced
Flashing lights & colours contrast against the internal gears
Neon entanglement of escaping wires
A psychological riddle in the realm of the astrophysical
(Human trials open for all participants)
Electrocution risk- volatile voltage
******* of the remorseful
The senses betray to the beyond
Electric pulsation of pyromania
Reactor arc sequence commenced
Clock strikes midnight dead

celestial kaleidoscope of heaven's taste

forevermore to be one with the ocean of stars

rebirth of the locust
blackcat Jul 8
huddled black clouds cleave to agonizing stormy skies

brutal lightning strikes hypnotizing
angry skies again (rebirth of the locust)

a paralytic agent of chaos comes in the way of raindrops

a wall of vultures rise, murmurations, the aerial dynamics of the animal psyche

wicked, the wayward tongue, that seeks aspiration, o the dark of mankind

wicked, the wayward tongue, that craves the bite of the crashing down

exuding shadows and pale innocence, the solitary moon has hung Her brow

desolate eyes of a starry doe resound, like one thousand grains of sand on porcelaine

Stomach sick with the dizzying amount of guilt, *****-inducing vertigo
Mental crash, relapse, insanity
Apologizing to the gentle breeze
In memorium- for all the words that never graced my lips
In reality's waking eve- my eyes awaken to the truth of my inner soul
Years of solemn apologies lie up around the next bend in the river
Has my halo burnt out again?
Gaze into the divining mirror to see (you)
Faceless image replicated back, the horrorific façade continues...

coccooned in this mental sanctuary
at one with my resting bliss
finally settling, body & mind stretch beyond the very fabric of Time

Man of Tomorrows
blackcat Jul 31
A sea of piano notes swarm about
  his whimsical passings
He is a Man of Tomorrow
  And so the violin hymns are his friends
He counts them one by one
  As such kindred spirits...
As a romantic loving plucks petals,
  She loves me, she loves me not...
Kicking daffodils in pastures of isolation,
  Flying kites in thunderous skies
  
And so he twirls his parasol fastidiously
  about, without a care
He wears his pea coat and sits,
  He ponders upon his pipe dreams
As the world turns, his ivory castle  
  grows higher, walls of innovation
In seclusion, he is a man of many a  
  delusion, hes the entertainer, the Actor

Evergreen thoughts has he, imaginarium
  Lands of Delirium awaits his simple  
  humanity
His vest is tidy, his eyes are a wormhole
  He sits in the space between the clouds
Asking the Man of the Moon what time  
  it is?
He laughs with loyal light, its not quite  
  that time yet my musical man!

His eyes worn, they ache for the warmth   of a handshake, Oh to entertain a kiss
A man of song, A man of sorrow
He is, and always be...a Man full of
  Tomorrows

SLEIGHT

Sleighted by a dark rainbow
Outer layer of self exposed
Born under a bad sign
Channels in mind left unlocked, unhinged
Chaos's smoking fumes ignite laughter
Dark, sad jokes bully the silent, in sullen darkness
Rust covered matrimony of the decaying stars
A thousand quasar exploding in the eyes of God
Universal respite, year of the Lizard
Black holes, cosmic yawning abyss, lone galaxies erupting
Rip down the sunlight,
Cast the web over the Lunar Spectacle
Spiders on Mars, a retrospective lullybye
Voyage to the dark recoil of my memory

Cellophane appendages bend & break
Languid-the pure taste of prison bar rust
Hot face on the cold slab kitchen floor
Watching abstinence kiss me with ill memories

Drowning without the facade of hope
Bald mornings kiss me with the hate
The razor keeps on slicing closer to the edge
Persistent thirst -youre the everlasting damnation

i seek the surrealism, romancing the stars suits me

satin buttons & velveteen embraces
a child's plaything loved to pieces
tattered & torn but in their eyes, eternal

see Her ringed finger mark your Tarot
spinster of the ancient arts- of alchemy

mystic moon, where art thou this eve?
seas of open space cast down the spires

my trippie hippie, gallows of purgatory await for this impish, mischievous game you play

neo-pagan divination, she conjures through the ethereal to the metaphysical

solar system of limitless neutrons
link my will, my soul, my mind to this delightful imaginarium

blackened mirror divine me an eternal wager
to ignite the passage through the veil of ether to reach the otherside (vapors child)

raven claws of convoluted desires pull me deeper
a burning gullet of fire, ethanol's dark, bidding wish

the solitary art of bending light, slowly- as helions, as cherubim, equally fade out

slowly the water ripples & bubbles
cool seance hands open medium's gates slowly

a cruel ballast of Hope hangs upon the raving skeleton breeze
frigid the Spirit that awakes in the Hollow from aeons of scrying

folded, Her woven world of the galaxies she evades, this of eventide mystery breeds

she behests the dark & the vision of light she illustrates by starlight of one thousand dancing sands

at midnight's door about to cross the threshold
upon this witching hour, the mind's eye opens by star-swollen passageways

Purple broken limbs are dismembered  
  in discordant positions,
The shock and horror is not lost on
  me,
The anguish of being a monster of
  such concentration, dear coronation
  of Blood
Take part of the sacrament unsolicited

Strange delirium of senses, the clarity of atrophy has become clear
Lying still for hours until the  
  vibrations of man's stupor venture  
  near
The fragile moment in time, he tends  
to Her whisper, Her smooth rippling  
warmth

Skin of snow I survey every inch of
  Her smoothest landscape,
Alive with such trembling bliss, the  
  pulse of her heart beats in unison of
  mine own
Another voyage of the stars in swooning darkness, left haplessly at edge of shore

Master of horror's past and present,
The current is summoning me
The path to redemption is clear
Suffering sunshine emptied its aura.
  when it built my plagues
The melodrama of romance draws to an arcane benedition

Nights of terror I shivered relentlessly into a cave of diamond tears
Endless years of burning a candle simultaneously, shifting, changing me...
The revolving art of destruction,
Beholden soothsayers can rest in their vagracy graves, old bones to finite dust
Claustrophia's curse has got me suffocating
Dead hands grip my throat unable to breathe
Serpentine tongue flicks as my world comes melting downward
Remorse over fears and resentments
Mornings of madness when my insanity rose
Drummer boy at war, battle songs must rage on (even) in misery

Imbibe. Intoxicate.
Burn it all down again
Like another pyromaniac

Another empty promise
Another spell is broken
Strong willed but oh the compromise

Forevermore to be candle lit-
A lantern to those stuck in the Dark
Weight of the World but still I lift it!

Immortality lies just ahead
The golden war among the gods...
Better in the Land of Living, than living in my head

Another detour, another crash
Craving sugar delight-a drop so sweet!
Oh the wicked battle-I can never outlast

Reality shock, time runs out (tik tok) on the clock
Just another day, another stroke until midnight
Eyes still betray, the smirks always mock

Smoke in the lungs, fire in the blood
Veins go black, fist in the pocket
Dilated irises- take me down into the flood

Like David & Goliath-behead the heathen
Separate the wicked from the elite
Will you be at home with the Angels?
Or down below with all the Demons?

I seek the depths of darkness,
A cavern of silent teeth persists-
The tension of 100 bats inversion.
Slowly, blue eyes dissolve into black,
Origin of other worldly delights...I am!

Such trembling vessels of flesh & blood, Erratic! They devour chaos and pain
An underveloped primal fiend akin to  
  swine, to the lowly vermin under foot
Legacy of truth-this war will ne'er end

Storm the gates at dawn, they declare
I stress their efforts by mind, their well  
  played hand comes tumbling down Tiresome and bored breed of humanitys  
  spineless scorn

Weak-willled spawn of dead flies-
'Do what thou wilt'
Masculine powers of man superseded
Battletorn soldiers still shaken and jarred
Final now-the bastille embers still glow
Bruised and suffered, I lie among the ash

Refuge of the fallen
Assembly lines for hours
Another night in the sea of summoning dark
Ive noticed a growing paranoia just around the temples
The stress shadow slips two firm hands around my throat
Notations of subtle insanity growing around the curves of my teeth
Strange sensation, to lie free and naked among a field of poppies
Fluttered are the ethereal wings of Hope

Perplexing phantoms of secret coves unite
A symmetry of gravitation lies between
Soothing atmosphere and end of light

resounding laughter vilified
volumes of unspoken folly
pivot the paradigm of paranoia
anxious disarray, nervous disposition

the machine turns on again
soul sucker, soul crusher
his lips were a bruised wound
a purple cacophony ascends
a mess of wires stretch...
the length of the mechanical arms extends
my panoramic image within the circuit

adamantly seeking sadistic ploys
silently screaming in a bucket of wild abandoned

dredging horrors that sour the stomach

the universal sensation of nausea rises
Fear climbs in through the minds back door

an army of crooked teeth align the path
a sinister tongue lashes with sulfur breath & smells of spiritual carnage

sleep paralysis of the human will
Oh God shaking and starting to doubt self consciousness
Black hole inertia
Clandestine apathy rising
Colourful lights silently dance
A holiday on the dark side commences

Languid laughter
Fearful eyes dart underwater
Aqueous fragility unwinds me
Lungs burn like a leaf in autumn

Stonewalled emotions tremble
Tangible endeavours rooted in between
Dark mechanicisms; waiting on the **** switch
I feel your human torch striving for a semblance of humanity...

Circular logic escapes me
Murmurations ensue my dark side
Laughter nevermore in the residing silence of my thoughts
Jagged moon rocks shatter my realities (elevated momentum stretched to the bounds of common realities)
I brandish liquid diamonds as the
  warmth of friendly emotions wave  
  over me
Head filled up with that shiny helium
Neon mortuaries greet me this eve
Coccooned in this sanctimonious momentum of your grace
Deeply breathing in the inert chemicals
To taste the finite bite of my inner sanctum
Sideways glances perpetrate reality
The disgraced populace slumbers
Sleepwalking past their own realities
Imaginary friends come to say hello
An endless hallway of shuttered windows lies haunted
Static memories live in the cracked cranium, sanctuary set ablaze...
Broken mirror shards litter the ***** floor
Shuddered oxygen, gasping at breaths as the ghost pass on through
An omniscient breeze travels from the eastern seas
Darkness reigns from the sidewalk cracks, where the spiders play (prey)

A chromatic disarray of wires snake about
Technical damnation, suffer the masses under finite electrocution
Digital guillotine, the noose only grows tighter
Eyes gone black, collosal octopus dragging me asunder, black hole of ink
Lungs burning on the caustic pandemonium
Seizing, coughing, suffering; this world is fit for a straightjacket
A welcomed embrace back to the dark side
