Died in my own arms tonight Slept between the spaces Alone betwixt firmaments Seen on the other side Or another life Clasped hands slip Envelepoed in mist Star crossed by egos Separation by logos I saw her once Thousands of sands ago Many moons Bled red for her Memories. From before me. Flood over and topple this thing  called me God speed

Black Friday stores open their doors Consumerist hoards tackle each other and gore Each other in the race Ten percent off It's right in our face. A man gets tackled to the floor. And a man hovers over him with his back to the swelling doors. " Here you lie, a casualty of profit. Can't you see all that has been sacrificed. Do you see that you are the next ritual, an ornament flailing on the altar of capitalism. Let me help you find your way."

These ripples widen Beholden to this cacophony of silence Chorus for the queit Benighted by these threats of violence Belonging to this song of the sirens

Beyond this broken loss Thrives a compass Not of mine, but thine For your soul is where the heart is Crown me nucleus Conceived with atoms Fibonacci sequence has seen me to grow Three decades That feel like three century Behold my sentry After forethought Going on first mind Send peace into ether Circle of protection Activate Sealed and secluded By this awesome fate Messages unsaid Far too late So by this loss Do I make haste To end my all Or double down Unless a fall Breaks me These losses have shaped me

On this vernal day of spring we behold the presence of our lord. In the sight of  divine eyes we recognize a unique life. We pay tribute and respect to an angel with our love entwined. Out of mutual admiration, deeply felt love and respect we bind together to hold a candle to a heart, that never felt worthy of it's light. Always giving from her loves bottomless cup. Replenished for her kids, family, and friends everyday. Reminding us the future is so bright were gonna need shades. This candle seems like a  shadow to her light In my life I've used her beacon to light my way. How do you put into words a soul so ahead of its time? How do the

Into the looking glass I gaze, searching for an Alice. My sigil for all days and my symbol of spent malice. Her bars lining a gilded heart and unsealed cage. My heart ready to be filled with her love like an empty chalice. I'm unassuaged. I stare into the glass. Skrying to catch a glimpse of this cryptic gem from my past. Wasting away for a peek of my impassioned beauty. She once lived and now haunts twice shy. Too bold for her soul inside this life to fly. But now my fair maiden is coming into view at last. Spent this entire life conjuring my soulmate of live's past. Seeing her face form from an ethereal gas. Now we kiss in c

Into the looking glass I gaze Searching for an Alice Mascot for the end of daze Symbol for the death of rage But bars lining a gilded and unsealed cage. I'm unassuaged. I stare into the glass Skrying to catch a crytic gem from the past Wasting away for a glimpse of my impassion beauty Too bold for her soul and life to last. Gwendolyn fair maden your coming into view at last Kissing in cold mirrors Parallel embrace from Beyond this mundane space If only her lips through the glass I could taste. Grim reminder of my mortal fate. Stark reality to parting lips fog on the glass And with it my ancient lass.

Even if I'm the last one standing I stand tall. Immortal soul watches all connections withdrawal. Centuries passing like sand blowing across desert bleakness. I smashed the hour glass then laughed. But all I see are familiar souls swimming in the past. Pyramids erected now dust between my toes. I snicker now but even still I miss my foes. Fallen star to match my fallen halo. Into the emptiness of space, after Earth I stand solo.

1. This complacency Fondness erodes to withdrawal To thy self be true 2. Life is pain, yet numb Emerging victorious Denying heartbreak 3. Love is life's mirage Wandering, faraway sands Ocean of geodes 4. Oral tradition Truth spoken behind closed doors Risks retribution 5.
