Camel requests the acupuncturist  The keys to the gate of eternal bliss  Which really only exists in  Transient, contemplative wisps  Like the “what is” and “what if’s”; Having been told  By a man so old  It’s easier to make his entrance  Foie gras filled with bastardized  Anthropocentric lies  Loose limbs shimmy and sink whims  Force feed broken dreams  Trying to swim  Crawling for a purpose,  A question of worthiness  Where stars above and beyond yawn  Their indifference. Often ironic  That the hammerhead fish of godless darkness Is the more delighted  Of all of us.

“Look not at the poison horse in the mouth Lest you befall the fate of the prey of owls” Nascent words I spake from the unknown womb Sleeping soundly under the newest moon It was here...where the eagle feathers Fell deep into the Aegean in stormy weather The Minotaur be smirked from the paper Dropped, stopped, and topped with capers Gaze now upon...the Elysian, serpentine siren Ruled by Samael and extolled by Lord Byron And it was there...where the odor of odium Enthralled the coprophagous flies on plums And the sun and earth beheld an eclipse Transmogrifying the ones victim of a death wish.

Deep in a dream I saw you in a memory You were a rose in my garden of death The joy you brought, the emotion I sought Even after your passing, I hoped would never rot But, now I find myself Deep in saudade Grief overtakes me I fall to my knees You were on your deathbed I was by your side I gave you one last loving kiss And then you died Before I could say goodbye That ultimate time Now I behold your tombstone again The epitaph meant as a reminder to laugh To erode with emotions lachrymose Wolfhounds howl for the curtain closed Anguish drives my sanity comatose Weeping in madness for my decomposed rose I can never forgive myself As I fall, entrapped in the closing walls “Deep in a dream I saw you in a memory You were a rose in my garden of death The joy you brought, the emotion I sought Even after your passing, I hoped would never rot” The last kiss, your final wish You told me I was your fulfillment of bliss …I try to keep that eulogy in the back of my mind The happiness you brought to me I can no longer find Grief rides behind the horseman of the eternity of death Guilt constricts my core; the garden, as I, lies forever bereft Your grave an undying memento of what once was What could have been, now long robbed from us The rose you were, has long since decimated In mocking sunlight, I mourn thy soul cremated. I grasp the thorns, they crumble to dust… On your tumulus I leave one last kiss Lest I go on feeling remiss ’Til the end of existence. I wish to feel nothing more.

Black Mages of feline form  Turn the churned sighs of light unborn  Conquering the crypts—their mission  Superstitious be the opposition  Sic their claws deep into the sacrifice  Deep in the dead of night  Phlebotomy for Phlegethon’s flow  Quenching dehydration for the unknown  Flashing their fangs  The way of which their incantations sang  So, when they go away,  The mice are still too scared to play.  Sink your teeth into this treat Unsheathe the claws and open thy jaw Bear witness as the felines of black magic sing Roaring like lions with the ferocity of lightning.

Poem by Lord Byron. Away ye grey landscapes, ye gardens o' roses In you let the minions of luxury rove And restore me the rocks where the snowflake reposes If still they are sacred to freedom and love Brave Caledonia, dear are thy mountains Round their white summits though elements war Though cataracts roar 'stead of smooth-flowing fountains I sigh for the valley o' dark Lochnagar Ah! there my young footsteps in infancy wandered My cap was the bonnet, my cloak was the plaid On chieftains departed my memory lingered As daily I strayed through the pine-covered glade I sought not my home till the day's dying glory Gave place to the rays o' the bright polar star My fancy was cheered by the bold martial story As told by the sons o' dark Lochnagar Years have rolled on, Lochnagar, since I left you Years must roll on ere I see you again Though Nature of verdure and flowers bereft you Yet still art thou dearer than Albion's plain England! thy beauties are tame and domestic To one who has roved on the mountains afar Oh for the crags that are wild and majestic The steep frowning glories o' wild Lochnagar Brave Caledonia, dear are thy mountains I sigh for the valley o' dark Lochnagar Ill-starred now the brave, did no vision foreboding Tell you that fate had forsaken our cause? Yet were you destined to die at Culloden Though victory crowned not your fall with applause Yet were you happy in death's earthly slumber To sleep wi' your clan in the caves of Braemar The pibroch resounds to the piper's loud number Your deeds to the echoes of wild Lochnagar Brave Caledonia, dear are thy mountains I sigh for the valley o' dark Lochnagar
