UNLEASH
[[The War in Heaven]]
[[Monsters Among Us]]
[[ARMAGEDDON]]
[[Hell On Earth…]]
For all the Soul Vampires I’ve met. You know who you are…
When I was young my imagination would run wild and my dreams were unbearably real
The nicest, most honest
Heartfelt and soulful
Words one could ever conjure
Only to be followed by silence
And pain for the departed soul
So entombed by its torment
That the reset button can fix.
As Death, a grim spirit whose pleasure is death and whose hobby is suicide
[[SOMA SEMA]]
Only parallel when absolutely necessary
I eat when I’m hungry
Sleep when I’m tired
Day, night; which ever
Weeks, months, years… sure
Life is too preciously short
To be measured in units
My life does not wait.
[[Arcane Episodes List 1-3]]
The glass Perrier bottle in my hands
Cold and sweaty, condensation
From the humid stinkin air
A chance encounter, an old acquaintance
I begin to wonder what I’ve done with myself
Slaying defunct deities
Enduring the poisonous posthumous wrath
The bottle slips from my hand
By the side of the road
The green glass vessel of opportunity
Time slows to show me
1000 ways to break a bottle
From countless angles
I step forward into traffic
To join the shattered
The hood absorbs my knees
But the windshield is
The last thing I see
And I am immediately sorry
I’ve ruined someone else’s day
Your presence a rash
That makes my skin tingle
The gossamer leftovers
Of a room’s previous occupants
Traces of an 8-legged monster
Of our imagination
Their alluring seductions
Ensnaring prey and devouring
An anomaly in my vision
That must be removed
Both for the insecurities of my kind
And for the shattering REVELATION
That I am not the only utmost in this realm
And the fine silk threads
I felt on my mouth
Made me envision the world
Beyond my comprehension
And that made me SCARED –
A fear of the unknown –
So when I know I will not fear
But for now, at this unenlightened stage
You fire an overactive imagination
Into a personal phobic paranoia
Without tangible justification.
[[Arcane/dichotomy/scenes/falling in elevator – jumping from somewhere|falling in elevator – jumping from somewhere]]
And the creatures that dwell in it
Spies, thieves, politicians
Crooks, liars and killers
It is the world about
And a mirror of within
[[Arcane/the-inheritance/scenes/a Jet Li type character and I escape from some ordeal|a Jet Li type character and I escape from some ordeal]]
Shadows like those within
Forcing us to rely on the light
Radiating from our soul.
For some is a consuming absence
Others blinded by the flash
Left to grope at shifting shadows
Still, those whose pupils may dilate
Become accustomed to the gloom
Greet the inner demons
Personified as monsters
Hairy and scary within us all
To develop an equilibrium
With the less pleasant
Manifestations of ourself
[[Zanzibar – a guido in a trans am]]
The alarm clock screams
Forcing me from slumber
Apprehensively, I answer the call
And you vanish like a shadow
Of wisps of smoke
Your presence is a mirage
Of love’s warm breeze,
Soft embrace
And tender kisses.
Like a wishful illusion
That disapparates at 7 sharp
Replacing your silky sounds
With a shrill cry
The sexy sun shine’s
Luxuriant heat
Turns to a chill, clammy caress
Your body becomes my pillow
And our refreshing kisses
Become a facedown mouthful of sand.
I hate you, 7 am.
[[arcane/dichotomy/plot/SHARED DREAMS|SHARED DREAMS]]
An orgasm of thought
Culmination of being, consciousness
Encircler
Savage sexx rituals
Biblical MADMEN
[[THEMES OF THE ARCANE DIARY]]
A maharaja’s temple in my closet,
A briefcase or a secret gesticulate
An enchanted doorway
To my astral home.
A place on another plane
Of regal proportions
A safe haven for my self
And my acquisitions
For no one knows its whereabouts
Unless I allow
the door to be found.
