The Beginning Part I
A beautiful sequence of nightmares one after the other
A creature of the night is here to drive in his claws
And drag you under
Beneath his cloak of silent death
You will fall to a suffering slumber.
The way he knows to hell

Rigel
There is a star a phoenix of the skies. A warrior’s light and raven’s tail Rigel. How sharp your eye and arrow? How strong your voice and bow? Rigel the storm of falling stars as eternal as you shall never be. Or as infinite in their celestial

You mix it up
with orange
with apple
with ice
You add the molotov for spice
Splash some green for Neda
And don't forgot the gasoline
You mix it up
with cherry
with lemon
with rum
You add Gahdafi just for fun.

Make money off liberation's dream.
Sell for a

As his words come towards me
I don't even raise my arms up
No defensive wounds
Rather each sentence
Brings forth the little jewels of red

Denial has a sharp edge.

the drones of noise elevated
the spark of big bang enlarged beyond time

the gizzards are in you but will they be used
the feelings cannot be extinguished
none of them we need them all
the train pulls up to the station platform

5 weeks and it will all be over
The waiting for winter’s end
Cold weeks shifting over cold sheets
The rain nuzzling my lover’s ear
In the wetland of the lover’s lagoon
Dreaming hearts are woken at noon
The night shows its hand
Spreading from midnight through morning and
Back again.
Lengthening shadows

On the other side of the chasm
she resembles drapery--
grandmother's drapery--
with a large medallion hanging from her neck
and heavy printed fabric clinging loosely
Casually her shoulder is exposed
displaying pale skin and pink sheer fabric.
She is old.
She is alive.
As long as she

The mirror only manifests the illusory of the shell for it cannot interpret.
I pray I never see the travesty of my sister's transfigured by fads
I cannot will myself to cling to society's need of conformity.
I am always chilled and chained to the carcass of life's regrets.
It seems as

So I guess even dreams are sold to life.
All the mysteries of jaded lies?
I thought everything would be all right.
Now it seems like the day the whole world died.
Vanity in the flowers all the angels cried.
