• An vision I had of the end of humanity, which stole my appetite

  In fitful sleep and frightening waking dreams Visions of children screaming Crowds streaming through fissures in palisades King ears bent to hear what blatant schemers say Green given to grey, fields unto graves Around healing houses lofty railings raised, barring the saved Only curs and beaten slaves live unchanged in this changing age The wheel’s…

• Gardenchild

  A yew strangely reposed, yet no less stately Gorgeous rose razor throated A sacred few knelt by a pool Guards closed in and The Youth ran and his linen unspooled Running naked fool; running naked fugitive A huge, deluge-wielding moon cast Gethsemane in gloom.

• How old?

  I know what it means When he takes his lancet out  Roll up my shirtsleeves, sit down  No one frowning or crying out  Soundproofing drowns all those sounds out Sea replacing all ground now  All ground down to powder  Expired empires marked now by dirt mounds.

• A modest, thorough and poetical account, amounting to a description of the demesne Dempsey; its barony entire: from the flagstones to the rushing rapids, the lows where the stags go to rut, the highs which abut, also the plentiful lanes, beautiful meadows, plains, and woodlands it contains.

  Couch to 5K, house with road frontage and modest acreage Its name one which is antient, recipients of much patronage A cursed line, sadly, if their life is not by their own hands taken They end up as rawthroated bedlam patients Place practically quakes, parties everyday, a resident DJ Two swans, Uther and Igraine, doing…

• So taken aback was I by the vantage from the tower of my own land’s confines that I gripped hard the balustrade to stop my moorless soul from taking flight

  Trees either side of me Like I’m moving sweetly, fleetly, like a carried leaf Down the Anduin If you are born to be King then the lakelady will hand you it An anvil’s weight this unnamed crown leadlike with light-leaking jewels Fine rooms and suites, sweet things Lingering tastes, eyries; high peaks and tubular towers…
