The sum of jokes and hypocrisy is our land of peace and prosperity. Eyes like red iron vent hate and instigate the fights we pine for. Tempers like jet white streaks scream across third world skies. Hearts drown blue, the skin a sickened hue as the waters of war engulf our once free youth. The … Continue reading Red, White, and Bruised

State of the Mind
It is in this hour we unite. Though we are separate, we peer deep into the chasm: humanity, a full and vacant space, voids of mind, we acknowledge nothing, see nothing, and feel nothing. It is in this hour, the false power approaches. It dwells inside the land, an alien lost and dirty with gun … Continue reading State of the Mind

Remittance (Reprise)
It was in observation of manipulation. She used her mental prowess naturally throwing screens at conflict, hiding the truths needed, protecting the secrets accumulated. Her vast trail grew like the shadows long tails tethered to the horizon sun. Twilight grew in her eyes. She was tired. The attempts at manipulation.

Severance Rebirth
The shadows of summers passed fall like leaves turn to dust, indifferent to nature's flow, caring not for synchronicities or coincidences, a demarcation of written history and history being written. The waning bagpipes stutter to a halt and rattle away like the pipedreams cooked up nightly by sleepwalkers, a daylight reverie, a trance induced by … Continue reading Severance Rebirth
All Parties End
Sepsis of the heart, the antiquated death in digits once forgotten, brought to mind by the searing black that agitates the blood and quivers in the heart, it bargains for influence in the stream of consciousness deemed material by man and ephemeral by god. The waves came then. The ones passionate about the cause the … Continue reading All Parties End
