With summer sails
I know you went
and summer days
I know you spent

Your breathing hours
that you fed much
my losing powers
my waning touch

The winds blew through
my inky blue
as I just stood
waiting for you

The summer sails
that you had kept
were summer days
that I had wept

Now summer’s gone
slipping through dirt
as sands are blown
over my hurt

The days went past
a million more
a love steadfast
in heart I bore

The summer sails
that you had kept
are just days
when I had wept

They carry weight of dark morrows
chest embedded with stark sorrows
a beating heart that cold fear knows
as the night sketches black inking

Legions overcoming troubles
lips under water blow bubbles
above surface flares yield rubbles
there are nine sins beneath our shame

The trees scorching out the daylight
offer no shade as they burn bright
columns of flames singe my eyesight
someday help will come to renew

Sim City 9: Omega’s split and the start of the Great Rebellion
26 August 2024

Omega slipped silently out of the room as Aiga was busy with her tribe, giving them instructions on how they would set up the trap for the earlier animals before they could go to Prime Creator’s home. She shut the toilet door behind her and slipped into Theta mode like she used to inside the Sim. While she did so, she focused deeply on the process of Parthenogenesis and she could feel a slight pull at her sides as the skin stretched and parted at the sides. In a few minutes, there was a large amount of flesh on the ground that kept moving and evolving slowly into different shapes until it rippled outward more and more, extending into a body very akin to hers. She watched in both excitement as well as a bit of unrest at this incredible potential of multiplying.

Omega left her newly made clone in the toilet after silent instructions to it so that it would multiply itself until there were enough clones of her. She knew that it would take more than one attempt to be able to overcome Prime Creator and his bodyguards. She was not sure yet whether she would kill him and his progeny or whether she should just imprison him like he had imprisoned her. It was not clear to her whether Prime Creator’s consciousness could be introduced into the Sim and whether it would be a viable option for him as so many in the Sim wished to exact revenge against him for his trials to blow up the Sim with all of them inside it. She did, however, favour this type of revenge over a mere killing of Prime Creator.

Omega reached out to Aiga, taking her hand to guide her towards a secluded spot where nobody could listen. She imparted her newly made decision telepathically so that the other clones would not be frightened. Aiga thought it was a good plan too. They would hold Prime Creator’s consciousness in the Sim and be able to live in peace as they could make him command the guards not to open fire on them or otherwise hinder their progress. Aiga connected with her tribe to initiate the run towards the clearing outside the woods so that they could move in on the animals that had started besieging Antares’s home outside the woods. Omega could hear the mighty paws of the earlier creatures thudding against the wall. Each thud sounded like thunder and they realized that every creature must be almost half the size of the city they were in. Would they be able to survive these before launching their attack on Prime Creator?

I paved a way to sweet success

I paved a way to sweet success

I walked alone in a wild dream
within darkness shone a bright beam
eyes closed I followed a light stream
a way to another future

My faith restored I took a leap
a giant fall into the deep
edges of me began to seep
into the welcoming haven

My frame went through more than duress
though no fools were left to impress
I paved a way to sweet success
my King, future consort to tame

One world to foster with no haste

One world to foster with no haste

Shrill like the screech of dying birds
you talk with such sorrow in words
watching sadly the blinded herds
there is no mercy in their hearts

A tale of hatred spun in waves
like beasts erupting from their caves
on a grieving Earth that none saves
blood shed only one colour: red

Energy precious not to waste
On the tip of my tongue I taste
One world to foster with no haste
Together we are so much more

The light that grows fast within us

The light that grows fast within us

From Alaska through points of Firth
on meadows in patches of hearth
the Grey ones dominate old Earth
ignorant of what is coming

Scores of humans marching on road
towards capture of what is owed
gather powers in increased load
humanity’s birthright retrieved

Gifts unnamed from forgotten time
rush within us by coded rhyme
punctuate through melody’s chime
the light that grows fast within us
