Clock Watcher
Revelations in the mire of a 5 billion year old clock;
Its second hand akilter--its face moss encrusted.
A glance askew reveals seasons in dust;
Eons waning as hands too immense to perceive tick;
And tock too slow for racial memory to reveal.
Here in the ephemera of a glance;
In the briefest breath of life;
We face the most brutal judgment--that of ourselves.
Our joys give way to tragedies;
Our tragedies give way to joys;
As our seasons pass into dust. -
Lilitu
Crimson washed black by the moonlight;
Pale blues now turned white.
There is a truth to every illusion;
A desire for a mirage's kiss.
To be embraced by mist;
Cool caresses turned to warm kisses;
Wet with sanguine release.
Crimson washed black by the moonlight;
An illusion of a lover from a parasite.
Logic drained from anemic reason;
Pale blues now turned white.

Accidents In My Bones
"It was an accident--
I walked into a door", she said.
Doors swing--
And swing.
Swing like fists.
Sometimes a door comes unhinged.
Unhinged and unpredictable.
Weeks later--
"I fell down the stairs".
Arm in a cast--
Eyes downcast.
Stairs incline--
Or are inclined to hurt those close to them.
"It was an accident", she said.
"I have accidents in my bones--
They break like hearts do".

Black-hearted Lindsey and The Cold-hearted Man
Two birds they come aflying--
Two crows in the night--
Two birds come aflying--
One black soot the other a snowy white.
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted Man.
His eyes were bloody rubies--
Hers were the blackest pearls--
His eyes were bloody rubies--
And they watched the night clouds' swirls.
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted Man.
Two birds they come aflying--
Two crows in the night--
Two birds come aflying--
One black soot the other a snowy white.
The Devil couldn't take them--
No matter how hard he tries--
The Devil couldn't take them--
They'd done pecked out his eyes.
Listen carefully in the dark and hear them laugh as the Devil cries.
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted man--
Black-hearted Lindsey and the Cold-hearted man--
Flying through the night, just outside the divine plan.

New Job Finally
I have found employment of sorts. Huzzah! I just wish my training store wasn't 60 some miles away, when others get training stores within 10 or so miles. *sigh*
