    those brats broke our vase,
    shattered pigment etched in curves,
    the stillness of years
    and somehow a dog
    has taken itself & its tail considerably away
    into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
    behind: me, wag.

    The stillness of years,
    The silence that screams, locked up
    Heart too long buried.

    ntropyincarnate, love it!

    heart too long buried
    suddenly, beating out of
    control...who are you

    "But do you really, seriously, Major Scobie," Dr. Sykes asked, "believe in hell?"
    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."
    "That sort of hell wouldn't worry me," Fellowes said.
    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    control...who are you
    talking to, me, you, him, her -
    shut your mouth, let's go.

    shut your mouth, let's go
    where eyes do all the talking
    it's too late for words

    Show'ring us with tears
    They drowned the meaning, left it
    Buried under words.

    buried under words
    disguised in euphemisms
    the nightmare lives on

    The nightmare lives on
    It is darkest in the night
    Happy fantasies
    It is not too late, to be wild for roundabouts - to be wild for life
    Wolfsheim - It is not too late

    When reality is not
    Optional at least
    It is not too late, to be wild for roundabouts - to be wild for life

    Optional at least
    Opportunity of men
    Suffer or die now
    It may seem somehow inane.
    I wish to know all of you not just online, but on life.

    suffer or die now
    last sting of the scorpio
    love can be murder

    Love can be murder
    Or slow suicide endured
    To find life by death

    To find life by death
    swigning from the hangman's noose
    a moment too late

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before. ~ Edgar Allan Poe
