Dark momentums, liberated free

Dawning of Aquarius,
In stadiums of light.
These youthful peoples in future age
Proclaiming victory for
All one globe, a 'come together'

On Summer days of hate,
For on this day, another

Upon my face.
Not all is well on Planet Earth

Where only red is shed, and
Then again, does anybody care
For a fellow citizen of world -
Incensed

Tears Upon a Damsel Stricken
They served in faith,
retired - slovenly of life
in pain,
Their exit beckoned to
a candle'd mass,
Forgiving fathers praying
For assailants knives -
And worlds discordant
By a harpies laugh,
Drive children mad,
The absence of their masculine
Strength.
A fable promised by
courts then shamed, a sad

The young boy walked away from the scene. A smile slowly growing upon his face. He reached into his pocket, and pulled out a mobile phone. It was the phone of Marie which he had grabbed while she wrestled with him. He couldn't understand what she was doing running after him with the mobile phone in her hand, but he was glad of the encounter for the device he now ...

The couple at 46 stood at the window, watching the unfolding events with some disdain.

Laid Bare
Laid Bare
I'm looking across the room,
Feeling very small indeed,
Blades rock a world of insults,
Positioned delicately to a bleed.
Open passion invites catastrophe,
A whine of desperate truths,
A possessed of all 'that' paradox,
From a heart without a sleeve.

Pattern of lust displays a red mist,
A droplet congealed in a militant sun

Turning circles around
