Rubies and Diamonds
Rubies and Diamonds
To the dreary and the lonely,
To the cautious and the weary,
To the listless and enlightened minds,
Let them hear what my words describe,
Through humble prophets speaks The King,
Who urges and pushes for The Reckoning,
Answer your soul for it is beckoning,
Cast away shadows,
Cast away strife,
You must answer your soul,
And answer your ...

The Garden
The Garden
The violets speak softly to me,
They whisper to remember who came before,
The tiger-lilies interrogate me,
They say that spring pastures are no more,
The violet flowers inspire me to see my powers pure,
With the gifts that Venus pours my beauty will adorn,
The tiger-lilies scratch and chase me,
They say my will is cracked and torn,
The...

Phoenix
Phoenix
You set my sails ablaze,
How can I not feel hate?
My wings are singed, I cringe,
My throat is dry, I cry,
Why did you cause such pain?
Did you not my trust my ways?
My reflection is maimed,
The hope you did deflate,
The energy fades,
The Light of Heaven diverts away,
I guess I’ll have to wait,
The urgent message on delayed flight,
The r...

Sun
Sun
When I feel my blood boil,
…I close my eyes.
When I feel my heart sink,
…I close my eyes.
When I feel my spirits drain,
…I close my eyes.
When I feel my body buckle,
…I close my eyes.
When I feel my muscles tear,
…I close my eyes.
When I feel my ego shatter,
…I close my eyes.
Whe...

Remnants
Remnants
When the remnants of defeat are strewn about the floor,
Covering my ripped and battered boots,
Crick and cracking evermore,
When my wounds burn and blister from the heat,
To drag my heavy soul to the depths of darkness,
When the mirror shatters to pierce the life that was lived before,
And hope dissolves into the sea,
When my dead, cold heart da...

Sadness Slain
Sadness Slain
Endurance is salvation’s gift,
To help your inner spirits lift,
Don’t let fear blockade the door,
Have the ambition to explore,
Defeat is something to toughen your skin,
Keep on fighting and you will win,
To overcome with great speed,
Neptune’s fury you shall need,
With power and dominance in the mix,
Let temperance hold your mortal wish,
Sancti...

Master and Commander
Master and Commander
Spreading kindness is not as easy as it should be,
Light years ahead this world of worlds,
And what’s not preserved will slip through mid-earth,
Medicated America suffers,
Morals are seldom thought of,
Our jaded youth trudges on,
We collapse on the front lines,
No one can save us,
Because we see our neighbors in turmoil and turn away,

Sulphur
SULPHUR
SULPHUR MAKES A GOOD SUPPER,
IT GOES WELL WITH A LIQUID LUNCH,
SOCIETY RATIONS OUR THOUGHTS JUST LIKE IT RATIONS PIECES OF BREAD,
WHAT'S THE PRICES OF OUR FACES?
WHAT'S THE PRICES OF OUR COFFINS WE ARE ALL DYING TO FIT INTO?
IF SULPHUR SEEPS MIGHTY DEEP IT IS ALMOST NEVER EXTRACTED,
WHAT SERVES AS OUR DISTRACTION INSTEAD OF PUFFING SULPHUR EVERY
MINUTE OF THE ...

The Marked Ones
The Marked Ones
Icicles stab like swords through my heart,
Enemies terrorize my mind,
Sanity slipping from the whole and the parts,
Time is elapsing,
Panic starts,
The dream of salvation is lost in the storm,
Ugly dark angels beg to be born,
Uncage the black beast,
Unholiest sworn,
Warriors come running from distant lands,
Strength and composure ripp...

Fracture
Fracture
Betrayal stabs like a dagger,
Cutting slices of my heart into 10 million scattered pieces,
The open wound lingers eternally,
Blood clots clump into a swamp of hate and anger,
The horizon does not rebirth the putrid, frozen tissue,
Feelings of filth and deceit seep through every cell of my dying body,
The bond that was once so strong rots into the sewage of what ...
