Idle hours

Night falls
And the door of
Loneliness
Opens once more
Wandering thoughts
Leading deeper
Endless hours
Pass by idle
Tears born of
Frustration
Wanting so much
To believe
While truths falsities
Ebb and flow

SIGNS

The first letter
Of the first
Word
Put down and
Purged
The stroke of
Midnight
All Hallows Eve

And cursed

Her number on
The list
Nameless
Faceless
Meaningless
Conquests
The exact number

At the end of first
Go-round
Everything flowing
Coming with ease
Alignments just right
For slaying the
Dead

Death Trap

She doesn’t seek his memory, it just comes creeping; and when it does, that’s all there is.

Lockdown

Echoes swirl
Through hallowed
Halls
Bouncing off doors
Inside my
soul
Meaningless words
Wrapped in
Illusion
A singular voice
Bent on spiritual
Intrusion
Bolt the door
Against his
Dark
Shut my eyes
Seek thy
Light

Dear God,

It was an absolute accident that I happened upon such wickedness, disguised in the Turner Classic Movie catalog. Or was it?
An advertisement for acclaimed feature films that grabbed my attention. And so I began to browse the images of the available DVD’s. It was a strange, almost eerie image that I was drawn to; the [...]

Mad world

She made the mistake of reading the list of Top Ten News Headlines. Reminded, yet again, of the insanity that surrounds us; the human beasts we are forced to co-exist with. A truth that at times, is almost too much to bear.
