It was late in the morning
when I got up, bleary eyed staggering
there were wine bottles empty everywhere
boy that was a night to remember, I swear

I looked around and could not find my love
my battle harden sweet rose of fury
I screamed, where is she
waking my kin and company

Seeing the look in their guilty eyes
I knew she had gone on a mission
there was a letter on the mantlepiece
but with eyes of black cold storms
I walked out on my own cursing their eyes

I knew she wanted to impress
but to do this whist in battle rest
if I had not been so ****** drunk
I would of dusted down the mantlepiece

I decided after much deliberation
that my writer and colleague did not lie
for as he had written about Innsmouth
there would be much dark mystery in that port

I thought I'd travel in his footsteps
take the bus,, that rickety thing
guided by my now tracadodium friend
who just bubbled pointing with his fins

I took my case with empty pads
pads that did plead for the relief of ink
as for me I wanted to know
why this town had a fishy stale stench

What foul deeds did the residents inochulessly conceal
what black magic wavered gold from the cold grey sea
so as we skipped over bumps and fallen twigs
with pen in hand, I would make a dairy of my time in Innsmouth

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Goodness, that woman is always so indecorous
she does not give a hoot about what people think
she pars with me in outrageous contentions
and her flippant disregard does match mine

She is a wild spirit of the high winds
one of goddess status that I call my kin
her might, well she never shows
but within her does pure light glow

Open with retrick to the ways and wrongs
this is Lady Jane's faux pas
she is not one of the fallen
for she sings in songs of truths

It matters not a jot to Lady Jane
for she is infectious to note arrietty
and her menial task
is to flick you back to reality

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I live here in this land of sorrows
here the streets are filled with broken dreams
limping three legged dogs prowl the pavements
they have no want or care to lick their wounds

Come with me to the lake of despondency
watch the swans with broken necks
see them come to the waters edge
dragging their beaks on the ground, eating broken glass

Let me show you the playgrounds
see they are strewn with knives and guns
this is where our children play
under the blood red and scarlet sun

Do you like our new arena
this is were we make the humans run
killing machines against human ****
in the land of sorrows, we have the darkest of fun


By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

In the cove where sea lions do dwell
there be Saline Sams thirty gunner
most of his jolly tars are in bars

So by the moonlit night to guide us
up by his hind we crawl
we mean to take out her masts
and give her fifteen shots broadside

As we finish with his ship
my boys move to port
and with cannons blazing
we blow to smithereens the inn

Then by dockside we alight
and with glee carry on the fight
we slice and dice till non are left
not Saline Sam, or his salty sea dogs

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

By the temple she stands, as a diminutive child
thorns do pierce her little fingers as she clutches tight
watch the blood drops fall
as the red petals do from her hands

Her eyes are full of sorrow
sorrow for you, knowing
and the roses in her delicate hands
they come free knowing where you're going

She stands there from daybreak
till kissing the night with a bow
don't let her fool you with her persona
for she is a little child of storms

Freely she gives her buds and blooms
each one with her blood laced on the thorns
her name inevitably I do know
but I can not recall for the life of me, for you

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Remember every dream
hold on all your hopes
bless the day you were born
worship in light and goodness

Let fly the sails of wonder
as you drift though the oceans of dreams
sail fast to the wind
and with fortitude overcome every storm

See the sky alight with stars
stand with me, watch the comets go by
stay strong and have a heart so true
as I do call you shipmates and part of this crew

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Her smile glows just sweet goodness
her eyes smile with her features
so as I know as a anthropologist
she does have a machine gun smile

Even her sweaters are made of star charts
her glory is her voice uttering wise words
she is my loyal lady of the star clusters
and such a milky way of knowledge unbound

That winged woman can light you up in bullets
shoot your name in flares to the midnight skies
she is beyond starstruck or light years in miles
she is the coolest of the cool,
contagion absolute with her machine gun smile

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

By the graves of all those hollow eyes
where the ravens fight for a morsel of meat
I sit in death and contemplate my complaint

I hear the screaming,
watch the shallow graves
see the dead reaching out

A cold mist envelopes me
I am joining that kingdom soon
so waiting for the embrace of forever

All my nightmares die with me
all the horridness of war
a task never completed

So as I lay myself to rest
I hear the screaming
and one of the voices, is mine

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

They think I am just nothing
with no form or feelings
a shadow from my eternity

They think me uncaring
think me dark and uncontrolled
living in this domain of sorrows

Yet they know not me
but they cast their depositions
ignominious and fatigued

But it matters not being rejected
came in peace, willing to help, was my motto
but to them it meant, just nothing

I don't think they could see a cow come down in snow flakes
or bite the head of the serpent and leave the fruit
so as silence is golden in this silver glade
I will now in order hold my voice static, for just nothing

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Is it not good
to give aid in the name of love
never to walk by
when you see someone in distress

Never turn your back on the needy
for they are starved by the greedy
and if you have the sense of humanity
always and ever help your fellow man

Some of these good samaritans
yes some of them look different from you
act in ways most alien to you
but they truly love and care, just like you

They hide most of the time
they fear you and your ways
as they are to you truly ...
strangers from the milky way

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Do you remember, my love
do you remember my last day
Angels did see you crying
and once again, I died for love

Your own could do nothing for me
for to love you truly, we have to suffer
and for you my majesty
all I do is in your sweet name

May the roses bloom in tears of blood
and the thorns thicken with my plasma
for soon I will be with you beyond the stars
then again I will change time and fates for you

By Christostos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I sometimes write my poems on strips of newspaper
just to put them in my pocket, till I go upstairs
there I leave them protected till I get back home
life is hard, when you are from the other side

Listen to the children
listen to their pleas
they would be gone
without one liken to me

For words can be true
some can be heinous
but in the end of time
most will be giving and generous

Matter not the ways and why fores
just follow your heart from the start
and have faith in your hearts
on strips of newspaper

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

The patterns in the shadows
shadows of a crescent sun
they fall upon the ground
in the company of trees leaves

As the coldness comes to pass
with the power of the moon and sun
I stand in awe of your countenance
and in wonder of your magnificence

1999 will always be a wonder to me
I waited to see this magical spectacle for many years
and no disappointment met my eyes
this miracle from the skies, this sweet eclipse

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

My life is devoted to you
I breath you, dream you, love you
my love for you does boarder on a sweet obsession
for you pulled me from the sad wreckage of my life
you are the one that gave my life meaning again
after all the death I have witnessed

I have become one with you
sympatico are we
I desire nothing more then to honor you
and will do my utmost to stand by you
I would walk into oblivion for you
all for my loyal love for you

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

This is my love song
my heart is on this plate
just for you my pride
enjoy the love I have inside

******* beating *****
truly it is yours to devourer
I need it not any more
for I am far too in love with you

See my goddess
I am truly devout to you
empathic to your laws
loyal to your mores

You have the privilege
to take full advantage
watch me fall to my knees
just for you, just to please

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I love pushing it to the limit
trying to break all the rules
I love the word rebellion
with arder to the cause

Catch the monkey
beat the saint
know my plight
busting my ***** to daylight

I could burn up
break the **** up
for I am .... man
busting my ***** to daylight

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I see the time is coming
she from the star will soon be here
I prepare for our meeting
I just hope she won't try to ***** me

I call the fleet back to port
I want her to see her finest
I got them to have a shake down
and clean up their starships

We must all be smart
slim, trim and proper
for she is as warlike as mars
she from the stars

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

How beautiful and delicate
how balanced was the world
then the idiot monkeys came along
done their utmost to make Earth hell

They are choking the seas with plastic
killing indiscriminately other species
till one day there will be none
how majestic this gesture

Most don't care about each other
some are wicked and full of lies
so let our other mothers sun
give terror from the skies

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

When the end comes
I will be by your side
I will not leave you
when the end comes

I will wait to take you
my brother to another land
don't you worry my blood
I mean to follow you soon

It annoys me my brother
annoys me I was made of sterner stuff
how many times dear brother
how many times I have been close to death

I witness you getting weaker by the day
your body thinning to the point of emaciation
I promise you our mothers son
I will be with you when the end comes

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

It's a sunny Monday morning
I'm getting ready for school
I have something for those bullies
they are going to eat my bullets

My parents have not a clue
that I am going to school to blow away the cool
I stick my bullet proof vest on
find my biggest bag to put my guns in

I'm going back to school
going to **** all the bullies
gonna blow them away
it's a no mercy killing

For years they have hindered my education
they have made me look and feel like a fool
well I am going back to school
just to blow away the cool

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

There she is sneaking around
hush, you will not hear her pads on the ground
soft claws withdrawn with venom within
little killer of sparrows and mice

You knock my favorite ornaments
and they go crashing to the ground
I do care for you
but you make me so so lonely

My pleasant garden I grow
now dies by your feet
as you, my feline friend
you defecate all over my flowers

Don't take it in the wrong way
but you are a pussycat thief
killing my plants
then hiding your doing's under leaf

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Never relent to reach your dreams
never fall at the first fence
be brave and fight on
think everyone not your enemy

Stand fast and never yield
be strong for the time of deliverance
be a child of the stars so vast
with hard work and perseverance

Go by the beat of the drum
know that enlightenment is within you
be as we, stride on freely
for I truly believe that you can really do

(Poem For Larna Kira Kourtis)

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

There is a virus in the house
most here look like ghosts
they are pallid and drained
not knowing the world outside

It's a virus
one of those insidious forms
it seems to take the soul out of you
pushing you out of the world of reality

It's a virus you can't control
it's a virus that want's to break free
wanting to spread itself around the world
yet this is where it stops with ones like me

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

See the wind celebrate the fluttering of ribbons
watch the trees with credence and admiration
note the red and black butterflies
and the ravens above them

If a tale could be told
I truly could tell you a long one
but I am gagged
with my hands tied behind my back

When we left our lands for another
our kin cried as ribbons fluttered
they waved at us as we hit our hyperdrives
then to the stars we did wonder

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I hear them talking in dark dank corners
asking each other, I think he's one of them
so I shadow walk past their communion
and fade into the darkness of the velvet night

Time is on my side
it is long before daybreak
I have time to talk to the dead
time to hatch clandestine plans

To keep secrets is sacred
to live in the dark, my business
they will scurry like rats before daybreak
for yes truly I am one of them
a child of the night

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

In the glow of the August moon
when silents falls upon the city
as the chapel bell does chime midnight
I stand by your graveside waiting for you

I hear you pounding within the coffin
hear you're rage, the screams to get out
come my love arise, I call in a dominating tone
and do uncover soil to get to your wooden prison

Lifting the lid of your casket
you just leap into my arms
my love, we will be married soon
in the glow of the August moon

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

For the pain I am in
to the horrors I have seen
to witnessing so many deaths
I am drinking myself stupid

For the blood on my hands
to being obedient to commands
to never breaking our code
I am drinking myself stupid

For my scars and medals
to my weapons made of metal
to my fallen brothers and sisters
I am drinking myself stupid

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Chasing the waves with my golden and silk sails
this hardship on this lonely boat brings me to you
you know not how much I want to impress you
how much I do truly do love you

It matters not that you are blaise
and corrupted by the human condition
I care so much for you
I don't want to go home

Ask me for something
give me the will to live
all I ask is for, is your heart
and some slight love for me

I must complete my tasks
but I want you to walk with me
come into my darkness
and be with the one of many

NEver to fall ON their silver swords

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I once lived in majestic opulence
my sister, she did reign supreme
then I had a wondrous wife
and a daughter that I treasured

My sister thought it was a waste of my time
playing with the trivialities of family
her empire did match mine
my sweet sister so refined

She did not want her elegant one
did not want me to mix my blood
many messengers she sent
ordering me to relent

Yet I refused to get in line
thinking all would be cool
but it to her I was a abominations
that's when I found my sweet daughter
pallid and cold as death
face down in the pool

A week later my sweet wife was found dead
in the bath with a razor blade in her hand......

You have done your best to destroy me
you nearly broke me, do you understand

How many more sister, will you ****
how many deaths to match mine
we will fight forever sister
to the sweet end of time

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

As sunsets last shinning falls
I fear not my love or our demise
with trees casting horrid shadows
in the coldness of sweet death
no matter, I fight by your sweet side
for I mean to fall with you

If you sucomb to the onslught
not matter the odds I will hold them back
for if we do not claim victory
I will fall with you

The shadow masters
and the ones of the deep blue
dear sister, they have for some time
my sweet Genna 2948, have been spying on you

I called for the scope of their fleet
we are out numbered seven to one
but the odds are pretty cool
if by honor, I will fall with you

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

You keep me from the rocky shoreline
save me from the jagged rocks
your guiding light keeps me from danger
within your circular love and illumination
I sail into the night making new relations
my treasure of kindness, lighthouse you

You point me to my next destination
you of light are my sweet liberation
the wind is behind me my love
as you point me into the darkness
I trust you with all my heart
knowing you care and lead me

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Her wonder did light the dimmest room
candle flames did grow fierce flickering bright
she was my oxygen and my flame
my raven haired love, my Milissa

We danced to midnight in the ballroom
we did only look in each others eyes
we both had tears running down our face
goodness we looked so silly

She held me close as we danced
and at the chime of midnight
I asked her kissing her hand
can we go outside

In the summer night
in the rose garden
I did kiss her with passion
my sweet Melissa

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

They know I am in human form
so they send their hunter seekers
they would love to extinguish my flame
but I am made of sterner stuff

They know I do transmogrify time
know that they are vastly inadequate to deal
or not deal with a creature like me
for I am as vast as time itself, and they know

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

How many years my love
how many years now, have we been apart
I hear you call in the cracking of ice
my love I know of the storm in your heart

This heart in human form beats for you
I will never deny your love and light
you are my all, my kingdom
you are all that I want to protect

I kneel to you with my heart in my hands
to you, and only to you I claim glory
if I am the one you cast down
I am willing to do your bidding

Not matter the hardships
I am loyal just to your name
and in winters silent river
I will decline fame

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

In this desolate landscape
you did force me to land
by ash and destruction
by skulls of the last of humanity

Here I stand in misery
knowing I never gave up the fight
but here I stand in this wasteland
god you would never understand

All the strife and effort
how our kind bleed for you
and you fools, you ****** fools
you did destroy you

Wow without mine you would of died
so ****** many years ago
if you want dates
I swear I can give them to you

Yet as our sweet child of light
she whom does change us to our next art
only she will guide us to dominion
as we wait for her, when the clouds part

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

My lonely heart falls into your hands
please take care of this silver soul
for I am rather misunderstood
and my heart aches with the son of Sipair

I never was horrid or malicious
I do hold the light most high
yet my lonely heart is breaking
and sweet Orion calls to me

May the stars bless me with perseverance
and may my courage be boundless
as I mean to hold your banner so high
for you, my lonely sovereign heart

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

To the chapel I do go
in the cold rain, late at night
just to kneel to your grave and remember you
as the relentless wind does bite burning me

I will worship you with my beating heart
I will treasure you as I would my queen
how my heart burns with your gift
you are truly my release

I know this is my sweet suicide
but I do love you too much
so in the cold rain late at night
I carry your banner, standing fast and fight

I went beyond care
Good God, five years ago
and now I walk with you
as we are now both shadows

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

You ignite me
your voice delights me
if I had the courage
I would make you my wife

Yet I am not worthy
not to one liken to you
for I am a lowly poet
not a notch on you

How my heart burns
just to hold you in my arms
I have no wealth
but a hell of a talent

Let me please light up your life
show you what a poor poet can do
I am not pleading with you
just my sister soul, believe in me

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Everytime you die
tears do fill my eyes
my hand on heart
to the beauty of your death

I lay red petals over you
kiss you on your cold lips
I sing my fond farewell
as they lower you into the ground

They will never know
never know how much I will miss you
will not know my love
the construction of my heart

I hold back the tears
this unbearable pain
as they lay you to rest
the pain of you leaving me hurts

You my sweet and only
my heart to the lonely
I am broken without you
yet you are beauty in death

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

So cold to the touch
she of crystal
her heart is frozen
living in this cold waste

With all I have I pull her from the wreckage
her frozen body still so cold
can I bring her back to life
just with one sweet kiss

Silent is her soul
I can not hear her voice
but I will try to revive her
by all my skills and devices

I hold her sweet frame in my arms
my children of war bow their heads
non can see me heal her
defrosting she of crystal

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

We beat as one in my heart
I feel you every night and day
you was once my fantasy
now you are my sweet reality

What would you claim from me
for I would give you empires
as I do dearly love you
and morn when we are apart

Without your love of me
without that, I am nothing
you know I will die for my art
my love for you is in my heart

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

When again we meet
my love, I will be a small child
and the scares that I do wear
are truly worthy of my love of you

My army is most mighty
and all in league to our destiny
I vow not to call to them
in the heat of the moment

Flags matter not to us
we look for the betterment
so tired of fighting wars
in the heat of the moment

So I come to you as a small child
trying to look mostly harmless
yet I know, you know who I am
still fighting in the heat of the moment

Why was I constructed for war
not just now but forevermore
this is my plight another fight
as I was built by you for war

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Her heart comes in warm winds
her lips kiss my cold cheeks
I know she holds me close
as I have total faith in her

She is my twilight storms
she keeps my hyperdrive ticking
she makes me sure with her love
makes sure I don't go full nova

She is the star of glory
my light and love
as her own warrior
I grow stronger in twilight storms

I keep the secret
the one never to disclose
it's for us only
in the discourse of the stars

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

On stormy nights on the ledge of despair
I feel the swaying of the trees behind me
looking up to the skies I see your porcelain face
when the rushing clouds reveal your milky facade

I see you on still waters
I see you whist dreaming in my bed
you are my all to me
you are the swaying of the trees

I need you so badly in my life
you have no idea how devoted to you I am
I want you to teach me my love
to the swaying of the trees

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

Oh beautiful angel, I cried
as she was coughing up blood
that was when I knew she was going to die

Her hands clasped mine
tears filled her eyes
and she started to shake

I held her close to me
as she spat blood onto my face
she wanted to tell me something

Her eyes had ergency within them
she had love in her eyes only for me
as she died in my arms

Now she whispers to me
far beyond the grave and harm
listening to her with blood on my hands
still hurting as she died in my arms

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

She has the frame of a mature woman
yet still in her eyes a little girl is residing
she is so kind to all yet much misunderstood
and she is always getting in trouble in the hood

She was my girl once
and I still love that girl
I think of her after dark
my sweet butterfly heart

I would love to go back
you know, and start again
but I'm onward bound to my art
my sweet love, my butterfly heart

By Christos Andreas Kourtis alka NeonSolaris

Another bowl, more tail then life
they wait for just to mate alone
yet their prison forbids them
as there is no cloth to cover them

They swim in such a confined space
never known of clear stream water
never known what it is like to be free
emasculated in their orbital prison

Poor things, I feel so sorry for them
round and round in circles they go
with nothing but gulping to do
these wretched creatures, these goldfish two

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I had this girlfriend many years ago
her name was Wendy Edge
she was my first love
I gave her my heart and pledge

Well she took me to meet her family
her father was a pest exterminator
and his young son took up the banner
by being all the poor frogs terminator

As we sat and talked in the garden
by the pond of frogs
Wendy's little brother came up
and ******* with a hammer in his hands

He grab them out one by one
hammered them to death and throw them back in
my god I told them, I was in dismay
they said to me, leave him alone and let him play

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris

I asked for more time
my backer said to me, no
so as it hit twelve I knelt and prayed
calling hard to the backers wife
only five minutes elapsed
then she did appear in front of me

I did plead with her
I told her of my plight
told her people call me a low life
yet I will not give up the fight
they know not of my silver knife
I begged the backers wife

She looked at me kneeling there
saw the tears in my eyes
then in a voice louder then the most fierce tempest
she gave me vito, for she did realise
miracles can truly happen
when you pray to the backers wife

By Christos Andreas Kourtis aka NeonSolaris
