Seethe like the only fate for you
(Break from the unending)
Is picking the stars from day
(Volley of well-known)
To plot ourselves
(Ways of growth)
On what will be
(Blight won’t sing of them)
Strange divide
Dark leaking through light
Shadow audience, oblique encounter
Brave design
In waking to die
“Drink from poison leaves”, calls
The inside
Inside brazens fire
Outside digs wells of solvents
Endowed
With some rich cybernetic dream
The dream to wield forever
Only then
Can lines be traversed
Only then
Will sooth speak
“Here after"
Traverse
Into the sprawling
Border of
Sky
Flooding the whole field
(Ill-drawn, discover)
But picking the flower
(No end, or answer for conferred)
Grown from seeds of home
(Lone ways to the coffin )
Beside wyrd
Lays drought
Transduce
For
Self-preservation
Endless
Trembling worlds
Open
Lethal sopor
Open

I hoped we might rid all these oceans of insipid howling
I hoped we might breathe in for new sound
Divide
To find the source of melody fading
Avowed to reap such low rewards
Forward throes
Jump off if only to reach symbiotic droning
Joy can’t hold me by its side
It’s too late to weep for you
Sans serif, recount these terrors
No point to weep for you
Leave only lonely ghosts
I hoped we might rid all these notions of patterns in groaning
I hoped we might lay out concerted glow
Buffer - the shape of gloom
And form
Lists only pardons for the hardy, leap back
Leap back
Dissolve fall’s empty promise
Chosen - such miserable
Lowly sound is lowly solace
Solely become unknown
Ripped from dry jaws of the dream
Tome stolen: foregone
The stone is forgotten
The sword is shed
Hard-worn - broke and filthy
Crossfire in hearts of doom
The tower leaves all so vulnerable
(Free fire)
While light’s watching on
Return to leave the Earth
Gleaned from the sole goal
Now gone
Suffer - innocent
The challenge in shutting doors
We live by unholy hands shorn
Twilight finds doom
Darkness is blank, nothing more
Don’t let this trample your view
One more step
I hoped we might slay all the products of eventual prowling
I hoped we might play out the final note
Black breath, master regret
On your doorstep and it’s so enticing
Now hold me close
We find new ways born of inner solace
It’s too late and they’ve grieved for you
(To find your world of wonder)
Too much to keep this view
Now fighting hardy twilight
How it glows

I die
Each time
Winds sing
Of life in violet
How to find
The weeds of priming
Lines won’t go beyond
Beyond the pale of immanence
(Without)
Need telling of how
To wage
Leafing through fate
To wake
Makes the leap feel
Viable
Glint off leaves
To weigh things
No waking
From this decrepit hole we’ve grown
To wage - unknown
Exploring the oddities of unbecoming
(Old darling ripe with time)
Decorate, punctuate difficulty
Blind it breaks
Calibrate worthy eye
Dine like the high pageantry’s
Ilk
I jump when you say run
In the slipping grip of east ends now intertwined
In plot thickened with blood
Viscous with casualties
I jump when you say run
Feel my heartbeat, it just might be stayed
Dull aching
Tied to the skies of old
It might break down
Health is stronger still
But longer built
Mastery dreamt away this bliss
No tragedy in leaping from tawdry towers
I’m digging a shard from this lathe of heaven
Drudging through shame
I jump when you say run
Try to make things turn but you can’t take comfort
In lands so far beyond
Weaving in and out of dark
Alight like shadows
I won’t know such holy sapience
Forfeit
Trust in the savor of tragedy

You only see when things are darkest
No matter the question the rite or the line
The simplicity of doing nothing
Is burning the air from which the flames will breathe
In which shard of infinity is time not so disposable?
We reach from within entrails of spirits beyond reach
(To whisper long)
“I feel the parting dream has returned”
Let it drown
Stealing night’s fire
Do as if time is turning Earth
All I’ve learned comes with an eraser
We all find a reason
Life - can’t take back
Only thus will doom
Know lowly heights persist so
They’ll drink, they’ll feast on it
Distilling hate from dirt
They’ll suffer the ground’s legion
Reach from night’s long claw
Now that you’ve felt yourself floating
Break the root undying
Far from lone self-loathing
But such failure weighs so heavy
Not only must you abate
Skies will wane
Eyes fall
The offer of doubt
Inhale it now
It’s the thought always sowing in heart
It’s not that grating given these eyes
It’s all the thought slowly breaking things down
Lesion - bleed from your hollow heart
Lesion - carry the serpent to your door
Lesion - pay for your sins falling down
To wade I can’t be part of this
You only call when things are hopeless
As light as running from the times truth
Screamed this isn’t what they meant by breathing
So in which shard of infinity is time not so disposable?
The rite of urgency
It’s the thought slowly killing me inside
By rights it’s a long way to turn from paltry danger
Blinded by this chaos
Igniting chaos in the dark
Breathe in from the memory
Joined in the echo
I can’t wade through seas of such harrowed soil laid bare, drawn

Brave unknown, have you lost it?
Brave unknown, where've you gone?
Ways to know how you’re lost in
Brave unknown reaching far
Far from dream way’s egress
Survived by the lone star
To waste in
Imprecision’s
Ill offering
Weighed down with dust
And withdraw from anomie
Sprawling as it drops
Into quiescence
Display:
Green pools of vision
Shining tower
Far shore’s haze
Great unknown, have you lost it?
Great unknown, where’ve you gone?
Gone like the morning’s decay
Greys all delay in white
Calico
Spinning from gold
Seldom in sight
All streams to splendor running dry
By no
Order
Will fate fall free
Will maniacs own
My whole god damn trial
Darkness reigns but maybe not in this
Dream
Ghost in deed
Howling beside the open trap door
And cast out
Into
Terror
Clouding upon its gaze
Brave unknown, are you lost in?
Brave unknown, where's your touch?
Ways to know that you’re lost in
Brave unknown reaching

A Presage
04:39

Call off the light
Call sign for trouble
Drum up a thicket
To brace us for the dark
The way each sickle swings
Sprout, decay
Seek symbols - something
Find second sight
Brave surrender
Root out nitrogen
But hold out for something more clarion
To waste!
No painter’s eye
Will amplify
Skyward dive
Burn off the filth
And jump into something more explosive
Pick from its sack
Lie under perpetual trees
Blood red skies There find arbors to hang your clover
Unchained, bring me that dream Open
Approaching new heights, dimensions Open
A city
Grows
A presage
Seals
Heed from
Poise
With no sign, no respite
No way to frame
Omens fall
Exacting tolls (Flicker for something more)
So don’t speak
A word
Of failing vision
Always
Undone but
Time’s running out beyond the
Doorway
And you’re not coming down
For nothing
Doorway to empty grounds
Wear this crown
Drenched in arcana
Bestride whole
Oaks and dead rivers -
This is all the sun saw
Though such throng reeks of evil
So it’s sowing the makeup of sordid ghosts
Where grass wont grow
Duress won't know of the changing of seasons
Where grass won't grow
Duress won’t know of the changing
Where grass won’t grow
Giant’s tales won’t speak of the unholy beatdown
Light, sound
Endless arbor
Stillness
Wreaths glow in secret forests
Gather

Nowhere
05:47

Time wanes
With no record
New planes
New violence
(Tiger’s clangour)
The weight of youth
With wings of gold
No conquering the conquest
The headstone tells of the intrepid call that keeps this tied but drifts off
The leaves carry the note of
We’re all accounted to be
Light as home
To ignite this folly of mine
Sewing doubt in the fiber of knowing
That goes by a name unknown to truth
Sunlight - don’t waste
The sudden and violent outpour
Do as if day won’t break
Inside
Let it lay, whatever it may bring
Let me die or let me sleep
I jump when you say run
One-trick fight, put me face down
Glass dagger twisted in the heart
Just dwelling so far beyond
There are some things you can’t imagine
Double the odds, bring back from beyond
Rename the reaction, bring forth evermore
Chapter - run back one by one
Entrapped in the ires of the molten jaws of doom
Ever uncommon
Strike back from beyond
Must worth be woefully
(dulled!)
Trust firm in
All that we’ve become
The answer leads so slowly
(now!)
To the end of our construction
Oscillating, also facing in
Tears drop. It’s perfect. Just look at what we’ve worked for.
New planes. Of loathing. No trust in trust before.
Outrun. Love drowning. It wears like cohesion.
New clock. But it lies. Took a page from Jem to pick it up.
Sweet dreams laced with serenity
My name ripped from divinity
Byways to live like that
I’m so sorry
The rain soaks your pain in doubt
We traded sun
For lowly painful byways
Delaying with its bullets
And I’m so sorry
But I can’t see forward

Silver

Draw back lingering eye
Draw back what we die for
Born of this cycling filth
Born to propagate
Slink from the mire then wait for your own doom
Free falling through
Nothingness felt so far beyond
If I only drink from your stream, flying
So will the snake before the day’s out
Silver - so erroneous
Last light so we call the marred to take up
Arms of disavowed
Diffusing brought down the sword of the proud
Break from the sea-floor to wreak holy war
Then white wash away
In contrast this might mean something
Break from the sea-floor to wreak holy war in tow
Expand the threshold
Withstand the pressure
Divert the past
We share the debt
Free-falling through
In regard of
Waged for the downfall of this
Mania
Free-formed
Free from
Free from the whole
Free from the author's doom
Free from the reaches
To listen softly to
So I only drink from your stream, flying
Subtly begging for the way out
Divert their eyes now breaking through the apathy betied
Storming impossibly through the crowd
Enter its cloud
Break from the sea-floor to wreak holy war
Then white wash away
In contrast this might mean something
Break from the sea-floor to wreak holy war in tow
Spinning of the ancient wheel that breaks all bones in time
Hubris of the liminal ones now leaping from the back of doom
Free falling through
Defying the fatal step

Earthborn

Now we’re straining
Forward-facing
Picture violet days
Await from air
Now we’re braving
Forward-chasing
Peering above the clouds
Oh
Desist
Torturous trek forth
Down, fading
No wasting
The wind of progress dulls
Go
And wade in
Pools
Lapis
“Delve!”
The wind shrieks
Now
To feast
Earthborn
WELCOME. TO SPACE STATION 49,000.
Oh, hasty sweet failings
Don’t let me face things known
To search the green planes
Evil fades like the lonely pages
Of words we hang on
And what we’ve done
Joy leaves sound
Feasting upon the air
Centuries of bounty
Centuries of drought
Daydreams, they’ve found me
The trail they leave leads out
Over
Infinite boundary
There lays
Home
Gazing,
Dancing on
The sound echoes forever
Gone into a sphere of night
Lanterns fall
Toward the eye
Weaving from the imagined
Weaving from the
Great unknown aspired
“Let us bring a new world”
Lets me keep my world
“Let us bring a new world”
Lets me keep my world
“Let us bring a new world”
Lets me see one
