it was the way it was
the when
the where
the how
as to why
look to the sky
for the rest ..
could’ve been
should’ve been
might’ve been
mean nothing
for that moment in time
it was the way it was
the real question is
what now?

Porous was the pillar
of my supposed virtue.
As the drugs kicked in,
fiery sin, it wrecked the bed.
I looked at her .. Demonic!
Lustily chthonic!
“Again?“ I sighed.
“Another ride!” she hissed.
O my succubus, mount me!
My wild, hot wave of wicked glee.

A sleek ferocious tide,
they fell on us like night.
We stood side by side,
no choice but to fight.
And yet we could not keep our feet,
they broke our line,
they broke our nerve,
they shook us to the core.
Few of us survived the day
the Wolf Tribe came to war.

Second Murderer:
I am one, my liege,
Whom the vile blows and buffets of the world
Have so incensed that I am reckless what
I do to spite the world.

Silver Bells - a #poem by Neil G
Dark night; moonbeams creep.
A profoundly peaceful sleep …

@CindyFVK @MercurialNight @MagsYoungs @weslowik @_MinaMurray @danielalippke @Searean2 @Mad_g3 @SilkAvril @dwinle Cut is the branch that might have grown full straight,
And burned is Apollo's laurel-bough,
That sometime grew within this learned man.

Straight as an arrow,
Raven flying came.
There was no doubt
She called my name.
‘Prepare to meet your fate!’
The black bird cried.
My armour’s on.
I’ll triumph where all others died.

my prayer is I will die
before the last tree dies
for the Earth
our grieving Mother
will then engulf us
in her tearful sighs
and so the waters rise

In a world of sadness and disdain
just two species now remain.
The Vampire,
dark lord of dread domain,
the rest, the cattle,
a herd to serve the ruthless reign.
Tithe in blood,
enslavement! O cruel estate!
None thrive
as stygian powers subjugate.
