64-bit world

words can carry with them a certain weird

emptiness the poison enamel

of this sole-fuelled exterior reality 
the blandest constrained phrase like
the sound that began the Earth
the sanest gateway

in a muddy forest of grief-laughing

and transient unstable compulsions 
somehow sacred maybe
from another time a resonance 
the sound of voices from the little Saturn box
mena...

some gods want us bloody

gore misunderstood as
glory 
invocation at
3 to the Great Unbegotten 
Thought 
like dust of the duat we dance
to the tone toroidal

waiting for Khepri 
to roll forthwith the day
begin 
anew old moments 
bedreamed
as bridegrooms in the borderlands
of morning
forever the Force that 
feasts and feeds 

Light      Mind      Power

to sacrifice
continuous refusals 
give up the gho...

A Lie To Break Your Heart

line in the sand

blood in the eyes

crawling

scorpion-like         society 

self-wounding in weird air

breathing deep

amid the seethes         seers

blinded for the sake of snakes

free enough to disappear 

speaking lies 

though unknowingly 

still breaks your heart just         one

many paths laid out from past mortalities 

casualties

from a journey in empat...

De-Spite

I refuse to let life lose
make champions of each
form phase and flame
of slightest darkness I reach
out toward the broader
storm-quiet crash of here
as the taste of strangers' rage
no clarity but fear
this mould-made quater-sleep
when numbered invocations tear
lightened fabrics long-left yet
quick to kill all slumber fought-for
no peace in dreams of death
in a paradise of beasts and h...

Earning Eternity

when I had nothing left to give 

You gave me everything I will ever need

when spite and hate defined me

You loved me the most

 

the sound of a door closing scraped my bones

and You showed me the way of re-association 

distant planning and laughter set fire to my mind

You simply taught me the power of unending Love

 

I will never again condescend 

those gorgeous bei...

The Optimist

screaming at the cold 
the mold of a mind so 
useless like a body in
a dark river

eyes crystal blue glaring up
amid the lapping scum
the corpse of who you thought 
you'd become like a future

things will get better 
things will get better

observers shocked back away 
this bloated meat can speak afraid 
too weird to interact with it
easier to laugh tribal simian

the differences...

The Troll Who Saved The Earth

before Trump a darkness on the Earth

silent were the people as their alexas'

taped their snoring

and everything else in

their quater-waked states 

 

and then              thanks to the efforts of

some unseen force a known troll 

took the United States Presidency 

 

I knew he was the real deal when

they tried to kill him several

times and I finally gave in and

Mods

I spend about an hour writing from my heart

a very rare event and you keep signing me out 

I know you're doing it on purpose.

 

You have ruined a beautiful website

And    I have a feeling it will be fixed soon .

Thrice-blind

a ripped off title and a filthy notepad

in honour of Thoth 

anti-saint unJesus-like with 

winged feet you scrape my mind in

states of half-skulled intuition 

you filch my numbers     acausel warfare 

blessed digits become threats 

I fight nightly  and the full moon is like a sniper 

watching                                   waiting 

war has evolved and blinded the Earth

Raft of Wreaths

eternal Truth in turmoil 

  lies pristine as ivory sculptures

    lunarlight alone reflecting in the dim

       of a thousand sunrise curses

    

     faces maimed by trying like crunched leaves

        seeds unhatched as souls beneath

           the surface of the mind's maddening river death

                   the world its raft of wreaths

Lamb Poem

Regardless of those who seek to destroy searching spirits

my Jesus is different         he laughs with me 

I don't even ponder about His human incarnation 

I want the Spirit             I need the Spirit 

Jesus is the Spirit of the world 

and when He said 'so in everything, do to others 

what you would have them do to you' 

He gave us the Keys to free ourselves 

the plans f...

One King

fading.............t       railing

skimming lobster-like to eterni   t y

Somewhere without seasons 

a land free of horus rising

leaving the realm of information where

light stores the code of our becoming 

 

we are connected by strings 

unseen by most                 those that do

go insane                              get rich 

our brains have been hacked for awhile ...

For The Great Mover

lumps of clay facilitate reality 

nothing is that is not

                                                               Moved

who Moves the Earth?

 

blocks of space        thick                 invisible

portions of what is

a crunched sun dead on

arrival                           no death Moves 

that is not pushed 

 

we are the blocks between airs

atoms attempt ...
