Crushing powers that be

How many systems failed blooming spring?When sting of darkness clipped a wingDid they ask her where she wanted to be?Powers conspired against powers that be When sting of darkness clipped a wingWas it fear or evil laughing in glee?Powers conspired against powers that beGardens withered away, not breathing free Was it fear or evil laughing … Continue reading Crushing powers that be

The hand that holds the brick balloon …. by Artie & Stu

If the hand that holds the string of the floating red brick balloon sees the hole where brick shows through the balloon then the hand will be crushed as the suspension of gravity bursts.

Flowing

We gel… your expectations preconceived notions clash with who am I right now in circulation voices from graveyards tear me to shards Today? NO… It’s just not on the cards inscribed assessment to deliver judgement I am flowing ink neither sacrilege … Continue reading Flowing

August

August is not my birth month, but it’s eventful for Leos, even if one was born late  in July. Somehow, the major changes in life occur somewhere around this time.

I have been chained

They say they worship me
