I float swiftly
down to shallow depths
landing with
grace after
her stygian embrace
Darkest parts of me clutched in winter's nether grasp
heat of late summer's final madness gripping me tightly
a vain notion of escaping
Its life, forfeit, as mine. Its auspices, lost and adrift to a blasted and battered landscapewhere all is quiet & where all is said and done
& Where am I awoken from a gifts ungiven where all is dust
It's a deception manifest in evanescent quiet where I wander through empty forests
to hollow cities
to boundless expanse
to find only iron and ash
for time immemorial
in this wake of an unknown world
that lay before me
I alone, in a world absent of familiarity.
Crackling distant anger of gods, roiling in canyons and mountains
under an extolling electric atmosphere
my fleeting skies changing violently, wherever I am.
Kaleidoscopic Viewing
Dream sequence internal like; storm fast approaching calm vistas - an awe of images - well painted with a sharp eye-quill.
