a sudden slip
a gradual fall
did i see this coming?
not at all

don't slide too far
don't let go
break free from the dark
you're not alone

stretch out your hand
open your eyes
else soon they'll dance
to your demise

why do you
delight in gray
in things so worthless
they'll soon decay

why are you
conforming now
don't act of here
you're of the Crown

before you take
another step
search your heart
leave the depths

remember the Love
that brought you here
remember the promises
and do not fear

hold on to what is
strong and true
have faith, and trust
you'll find Him, too

there's no shramming spleen to rail

against, come the winter solstice.

hotbeds of vampires stretch out to

make snow angels.

light deprivation projects its own creature

features.

received with the most lone & enthusiastic

review.

the doubleback of dark pressed against windows--

not far to meet any emergence from sleep.

uncut prolongations, tar-skipping streets throwing

off characterizations of litter.

unnerving the foot traffic of extras

spreading cabin fever.

the directorial debut of the 21st.
