Thrash, maul, no control. What you did came too late.Particularly sad kind of fate.Deer caught in the headlights.Soul surrounded by darkest blights.Marks upon your once clean flesh.Crisscross like a scarred mess.Causing fail to seep on in. Thrash, maul, no control.Trapped alongside, broke overhaul. Words spoken that had no value.They condemn you to the gallow.Twisted secondsContinue reading “Overfool”

Gales
Torn across the endless greyNow is not a time to playSeek thick walls and seek them quickFor you need to reach shelter before the flickThe one that will send you so far awayRight across this sea of sprayWhile all around the fluff does flowNone of it looks inviting thoughInstead the storm is here to stayAsContinue reading “Gales”

Without Mercies

Days In Short Supply
Hey look a prequel! Yes this is indeed a prequel to last weeks story. Quite different in tone and composition, I think. Whereas last weeks story was action this is more about the events, truncated and told by someone who was not present. Just to recap though for those who read the story last week,Continue reading “Days In Short Supply”
