"calignous" poems
Nigredo
Crawl to your calignous cave, where
The carbon walls will encroach your gray matter.
Choke on the ebb of your gnarled reason. Left imploring,
You will breathe the expanse, planets will taunt you.
Negligible, your ego will dissipate,
For you do not matter, are not matter, will not matter.
You will take the cathartic dragon,
Purge the soot from its gaping nostrils.
Shadows will multiply and thunder your eyeballs
Quick silver tears will swarm your porcelain peel.
So below, As above.
Albedo
I erupted from my candescent pool, where
The ivory baubles pirouetted in the cerulean sky,
Stimulated faith, insanity, rhapsody.
My unblemished chalk fingertips traced star-letters,
“I do mind, am mind, will mind.”
Bathing in this serene elation,
I released the congested swallows,
Scattered feathers upon the wasteland.
As above, So below.
Rubedo
Soon will be a crippling inundation of crimson diamonds,
That will shred and tear her dusty membrane,
Waning shards will slowly clear and stitches will surface.
Recognition will ignite from her shadows and
Golden love will germinate in the sandy dunes.
Leaves will gather to crunch her toes.
The vitality queen will reign from her throne,
Encrusted with life, stone in hand,
So above, As below.

My shadow's been darker than usual
Causing it to swallow the light inside
Feeding my mind with negativity and cruelty
Blinding my eyes to something that rely
I became a slave of my own whist
Departing from my human existence
The pen became a sharp pointed knife
As ink became a flow of crimson blood
The once snow white manufactured papers
Became a skin of my possessed addiction
A drug that continually giving me ecstacy
Torture seems to be my favorite hobby
Killing is now my game in the chess
Slaying who comes to make a mess
This calignous side of me
Is my new self, my new personality
