Jan 2012
Blown upon the wind
Flying on a wing
Hunting with the fang
The terror of the moonlight
The darkness of the rain
Silent Sunsets
Words and Names
Quiet undertaker
Roadside sleeping dog
Rattle Bones
Thick and Humid
Clawing at your neck
Clasped like crucifix
Dying lawyer's Hands
Silver bullet exhale
Fur, Grass, Sand
A ****** of crows
A creaking wooden gate
The swift sharp scycle
The screaming words of hate
The loading of a pistol
My father screams my name
Climbing through the thicket
Terror on your face
Those eyes
Those eyes
My God,
Those eyes
Wide and wanting
The whisper cracking low
Standing Hair
Abandoned House
Drunken laughing priest
Fight or flight
Flight or fight
Fingernails
Turned
To claws
Can you smell it on the wind?
Dust
To the river Styx
Silenced screams of torture
The gag of silken white
Pupils grow
And shrink
Then whither
The cracking
leaf
Of
life
I close my eyes
One last time
Goodbyes are not so sweet
