Henra Aug 2012
Bright this night seems, diamonds 
made of dreams. Miracles happen 
daily here, yet some still suffer. 
I catch the gaze the devils gleam 
And smile in pleasure. 
I dance among the nocturne noises 
and other screams of true bliss. 
Kissing sweet stars and watching 
It rain Paradises' tears. 
Some will still summon the gods 
Of dark pleasure and kiss with words 
as dandelions, but I am appeased, for 
now, here in my flat, drinking my 
wine and listening to my jazz.
Henra Aug 2012
Living dangerously amongst angels
Heaven rains as stars
Under a canopy of constellations
We are free

In beautiful madness we are the etheric
In chaotic inspiration we find true bliss

We tempt fate, all the while
Smiling deliciously.
We taste the dream with all it brings
While deities drink us in
We fight to survive through divine design
Although we've already sold our souls

Hard *****
beneath broken halo
Alabaster skin torn
And *****

Cigarette stained fingers 
Clasp ancient 
Star maps
All knowledge soulless 
And without time 
Floods

Feathers frayed 
On wings
Limp, wilted
Surrounds broken shell
Gritty and covered with
Filth

Scorned gifts
Miracles returned to 
Science
Nothing more
To be done
Labored breathes
Slow in disbelief

Sitting curbside, 
Bare feet in the puddled
Street
Enshrouded, frail
Awaiting
The bus back home

— The End —
