Can’t bring to transpire,All right down to the wire.I feel like the liar,Come dine in my head fire. I know I’m not empty,But states are a plenty.Need a pause from the spinning.Don’t feel like winning. This war;Battles that are not mine. Resist and refuse.Ready to not choose.The sides are uneven.Sick of my treason. Alibi forContinue reading “Episodes In”

Jupiter’s Gambit
This weeks story is inspired by westerns as well as the various cantina scenes from Star Wars. Don’t really think I need to say much more than that, so here is Jupiter’s Gambit. Faded and damaged baby blue paint peeling down from the tops of the walls signifies how little care is taken of theContinue reading “Jupiter’s Gambit”
Try Your Riot
You try and start a riot,Just cause you can’t buy it.Spoiled and obessed, crying.Embarassing that you’re denying. Like a bullet in my brain.This is way passed lame.Sick of making amends.Always stuck on endless trends.Voices that mean zero.Make out that you’re a hero.Pity you lap up the chatter.Because of it you’re getting fatter.Bloating like a rottenContinue reading “Try Your Riot”
Insomniac
The energy is failing.I feel like I’m paling…Into insignificance.My strength is gone for this.If only I could get sleep.Then maybe I’d feel less weak. Eyes are still burning,While my mind keeps on churning.No hands upon the wheel.This feels like a steal.But I’m not sure its purpose.It sure as hell ain’t courteous. Still shuffle and buckle.IContinue reading “Insomniac”
Megalomania
Do you want to see my cage?It’s deep within my hand dug grave.A sense of purpose that doesn’t quite fit.Maybe I am starting to realise how far I did slip.Not a fraction of the dose of my pain.What I feast upon might just breed the grain.A section of myself not aligned and secured.These crevices manyContinue reading “Megalomania”
This Is Right
It’s a long way down but don’t feel fear.This is one big slide to take you from there to here.Don’t overthink and you’ll be just fine.After all you have plenty of time. Get your hands up high and scream.It’s supposed to be fun so don’t feel guilty if you beam.Just remember that it’s the rideContinue reading “This Is Right”
A.R.I.
Wow, last story of March already. Time really does fly. Anyway, to the point. This week it is a Sci-Fi story, but one where no one is really the hero. Some characters you might like more than others. However, none of them are meant to be heroes. They are meant to be ordinary people. ApartContinue reading “A.R.I.”
Don’t Listen
Carve a path that is entirely my own.I’ll make it lead right back to home.Cause when I’m done I will prevail,Just going to ignore your chants to fail.I’m me and refuse to bend to your level.My victory will be all that I revel. Weave a thread that means most to me.It will pass through allContinue reading “Don’t Listen”
Bump
Ghouls and goblins.Things you don’t want to meet.Linger in the shadows.Ready to cut out the meek.Plus teeth like knives,With smiles so cruel.They chatter in tongues.And they’re coming for you. Devils and draugrs.Weilding all wordly fears.Stand on your shoulders,Armed with vicious spears.Plus teeth like knives,With smiles so cruel.They chatter in tongues.And they’re coming for you. MarkContinue reading “Bump”
Bathory
Stolen from their once safe beds.Only to be beaten and scarred ’til death.And no one wanted to say a word.Then one day voices were finally heard.Investigation into the claims of pain.Accounts scrawled across journals most insane.Sentencing heard from three hundred souls.Claims that more than double had been felled. Countess of blood,You pretended to be misunderstood.Continue reading “Bathory”
