Vision fleeting,
Strife unceding,
Soul unsold,
Create unmeaning.
Beast unmaking,
Heart unbeating,
Ring of ice,
Fate preceding.
Pit of bleeding,
Swords unsheathing,
Beast of lore,
Create your meaning.
Clash entreating,
Crowds are screaming,
For you now,
Fate proceeding.
Never a dull moment,
Or so they say.
Enticing and enthralling,
Your lips at bay,
Simply a tease.
Upon thy throne,
Your highness, truth undearing,
A truth made thrown
Into madness,
Created of your own making.
Silence unbearing,
Yet stillness welcomed,
Your form creates it,
A threat, daring
And taking as it may.
Undying still yet,
Your mutilated vision,
Twisted upon the chair,
Its form unbecoming,
And corrupting until
The clock takes its toll,
Taking all and leaving nothing.
With inky clouds of flustered air
The sinister red moon hides behind
Deep shrouds
With bite of bat and pure pestilence
Lack of faith
Not once before had I ever imagined
The sight of black rainbows
Weeping from within the depths
Of frightened,
Childlike heart
Yet with opened eyes I pushed forth
Wail of the cockerel
Open further to examine
The casket
Only to find exactly what I
Had expected
A sigh and sob of
Spectre alone, yet
With outstretched hand I had hoped
To dissipate
Into majestic
Comforting frost
"The demons," said the little girl. "They come out at night, Papa. They do." Her father merely looked at her with kind green eyes and a wrinkled smile.
"Don't be silly, sweetheart," he replied. "It's just your imagination, and boy, do you have an active one," he chuckled. He ran his sausage-like fingers through his daughter's long golden locks of hair. She looked rather upset at his remark.
"Hey!" she exclaimed. "What's that supposed to mean?" Her eyebrows were furrowed with inquisition and she crossed her arms, the sleeves of her pink teddy bear pajamas that were too big for her folding downward over her wrists.

Winter
Upon my body chilled with the ghostly touch of winter,
I wrap my arms about my chest,
And tremble with the wicked air of a snowflake wind.
I have but no clothing upon mine back,
And only frostbitten hands may offer a reprieve,
Yet it does no good.
I will surely die.
And from thenceforth have I but a thought,
That of the hands of thine own,
With a touch that which brings vernal tidings to the Earth,
And unto my heart,
Fingers which may melt the cruel ice of death,
And rosy palms, to steal the evil wind within that threatens in willing
Of my life of fragility to be taken.
It is not a robe adorned with the fur of mighty Urs
Without The Moon
Every night, I look unto the sky
Every star glistens with light
A guiding light
Yet no light is so guiding
As that of the moon.
I gaze upon its majesty
And I think
That you are the moon
Of my night sky
Brightening my way
Leading me
Guiding me
To your love.
And so I wonder
"What if it never was?"
And then I think
"What if you and I never were?"
What if the moon was not there?
What if you were not there?
These questions lead me to think
That if the moon was not there
To look upon me in the night
It would be as if you were never there.
For if the moon is gone,
Earth is put in disarray
And if you are gon
Stagnant ambience accompanied the young boy as he laid in the darkness, gracing his ears with the quiet sound of the humming ventilation system. The ambience's sweet but unmelodic music gave the boy the knowledge that life was still in his veins, and the heart within his petite chest continued to beat. Ambience was the boy's friend; it was always there to embrace him and gently sing him to sleep when he felt lonely. Ambience loved the boy as its child, and would sing simply for his pleasure.
Light suddenly invaded the room, slightly perturbing ambience, but ambience tolerated it, as it posed no threat to the boy. Playful as it was, light tic

Mind games; played not on a table,
but in ethereal plans.
Not with others, but against ourselves.
Oneself, like a dreaded nightmare;
a terror to grave to bare awake.
But to important to seize asleep.
The trickle down of sanity, not found;
no perception of our driving force, unbound;
maddening, to be so lost, discarded.
Misinformed, ill conceived notions.
Quotients of the soul, mind, and body;
Divided by themselves,
a segregation of the one into nothing.
An unfortified levee;
besieged on all sides by flood,
a fools errand.
Weary don't rest and wicked find no peace,
but degrees of each find no partition.
Old adages with no re
The clock upon the wall,
ticks and tocks.
An eternal resonance,
within my head.
Laying waste to hours,
to see only one has past.
Questions no answers,
Within reach.
The future obscured,
by thin truths.
Perceptions arrested,
ticktock ticktock.
Waiting watching trying,
to remain calm.
Unknown outcomes,
only known pasts.
Candles burning hot and slow,
welcome fragrant distractions.
Ticktock ticktock,
urging my brain.
Thoughts of pasts,
quickly pushed aside.
Hopes for futures,
constantly dashed.
Thinking thinking,
ticktock ticktock.
Sun on the horizon,
birds chirps.
When did the hours pass,
like sand through finger tip
Been out of college for a while now. Forgot about this place. I used to pour hours into viewing and reading the works of the many talented artists here. I didn't even know my account was still active. Who knew?!
Anyway, I'll probably use this as a little creative outlet for various things. Even with a full-time job working in IT and DJing on the side, I've got much more time to do other things than when I was in college. Life doesn't feel like it's focused on the rat race, and I'd like to keep it that way.
I haven't written a journal entry since I finished high school.
Shows you how active I've been.
I won't make any bullshit promises: I don't expect to be too active this summer. I'm maintaining my current list of watches, enjoying the occasional writing of a piece of prose, and maintaining a status of "lurker," more or less.
If I might offer an update in terms of personal life:
First year of college. Somewhat meh. Somewhat crap. Somewhat awesome. It's just the way things go. Enjoying my first days of summer academic leave and preparing to go to work.
I'll still hang around.
Enjoy your evenings, everyone.
