"receed" poems
Ever does he slumber
Put to sleep eons ago
By long dead gods
Realities surge and receed
As nothing more
Than his thoughtless dreams
Few within or without
These realities understand
The great being's power
And those that do
Have all but slipped
Into madness

How deeply did those eyes reach into me,
What horrors and confession they drew from me!
In such an ease of way, that nothing mattered, but the warm bath
Lapping my sins into a paler, whiter colour
Compelled, I spoke of shame
They offerd no restoration
But I was becoming cleaner, lighter.
And staring back,
I felt as if I could only see so far
Cloudy swirls would not receed and I grew desperate for connection.
The more I confessed, the more I moved a little deeper
But with all I could possibly remember;
As light as a feather and white as the clouds,
I saw no further.
I began to despair!
Eyes closed,
I worship
Blindly.
Hoping.
Calm.
Almost
Free

Oh, the darkness
And there does it lie
Ever in waiting
Below a dead sky
Patient, expectant
Of light's long return
That it might receed
And the earth again turn
For darkness revels
Most in the day
As haunting shadows
That follow our way

the ocean
vast nothingness
dark waves
crash and receed
dive into me
make me feel
not so
empty

I saw it there, in far off history
Before the ice grew
And covered the lush
Sun laden lands
I was stunned for a while
What I saw in that distant past
Was dark and inexplicable
Beyond my comprehensive limits
I looked as much as I could bear
And though I could not
Shape proper thoughts
Images entered my mind
A long fallen temple
With a single prisoner
Bound in eternal chains
And sunken below the ice
He of the dust
The title repeated
Over and over in my head
Instilling that name along side
The image of the captive
I knew nothing of the captive
But even in my vision
I could be an overwhelming
Empty presence eminate from him
For ten thousand years
Has he laid dormant
In the northern shelves
Of ice and snow
Yet now they receed
Heralding his return

The soft fire
That hides
Behind a womans smile
And invites you with her eyes
To say silly stupid things.
The rythym of
Her high strung hips
Dances with the shadows
That blink about the night
As wind and song receed
The gentleness of voice
As she hums a tiny tune
To the little nothings
That live about
The forests of my soul
The crystal reflections
Glide across your eyes
Whispering secrets
And fairy lies To hide
the curse of lost forevers
Oh wash the weariness
From my bones
And let me tell you
How the fire loves the night
Let me show you

By myself for forty years,
Alone at home with my beers
An aged flask
A caged mask
Are we all just home alone between our ears?
In the silence of this room
My thoughts receed into the doom
Are we all just deaf and dumb?
A newborn cries for his mum.

Palmettos
No green screen
Truth behold the gloriful
Human creation
The beginning
Controlling time
Surveying a simulation
Gave me birth
The 1st
You see alot
But you cant see God himself
Any minute or second
I ask God
Can you hear feel and see me
Thoughts in the background
Zack im here
Im true
Wat do you
Achieve to seize
By birth
You are cursed
Bask in greatness
Let these holy fields feed
Fees an greeds
Starving no bulletins
You give an will recieve
Receed believe
Cherish perish global warning
Mass surrendering
Maybe everyone understanding
Thy command you shall
Go x tinct
Belief
