A new age dawned within the night

A new age dawned within the night

Wolves their claws did slowly sharpen
Hunters their long guns would snap in
What we never knew would happen
set in motion in a heartbeat

As the people failed several tests
the dark forces commenced arrests
with empty hearts and blazing chests
they spread their hate within the world

Of humans shaped a captive breed
they grappled with a dying creed
more hunger strikes more mouths to feed
a crown to tumble down and sway

The crowds the buildings set to blast
a sequence for the rage to last
and as the flames seared on steadfast
a new age dawned within the night

Hunger bites

Morsels of the mind

She offered

Fruit of old

To compensate the feeling

Of bowels reeling

 

Candy cake

Sugar on the top

Sickening

Slice of lies

Their ancestry picked from flies

Uneven outposts

 

We held hosts

In kingdom’s shiver

In quiver

Shake my faith

I will show you wizened strait

Measure of my wait

Stick measures

Prodded cattle’s spine

Wine and dine

Meat so fine

Red more than colour brandished

Choice that mouth relished

 

They feed us

Darkness in a spree

Jerking knee

Fear to flee

Heart knows more than what eye sees

Willful chance to seize

 

Consume me

My flesh wanton gift

Mend the rift

Spirit lift

Still the hunger in the heart

No souls to depart

 

Lost pleasures

None in mind to hate

Check me mate

Bid me spate

I will waters overcome

For my Kingdom come

 

They see us

When we split in three

Hollow sea

Trinity

Casting net to kill disease

An evil to cease

 

Reveal me

Of thunder in dust

Earthen crust

Steel in rust

See in me anew the man

Error is Human

Blood awash

From age of deceit

Travel clothes

Pleated neat

I walk naked in parlours

That the Truth harbours

 

End of lies

Raven to me flies

Beak tender

Wings of old

They shelter me from the cold

Of ice of despair

 

See my brow

No longer hangs now

Infinite

Waves of hope

Surging through the upward slope

Bubbling into moon

 

Crescents swoon

Overwhelming surge

Gnawing urge

Daylight purge

Silver and gold they emerge

Betrothed in the skies

 

Now we feast

All eyes on the East

Bread in yeast

Hides the Beast

Bring me the rings of knighthood

Three bowls made of wood

 

Calm hunger

Feed me the Music

Rushing through

Veins intact

Pulsing centuries impact

Hurtling through ages

Hunger spins

Fabric of demise

Unbridled

The crowds rise

Like the specks of deserts sands

Blow into new lands

 

Castles built

Upon edge of Truth

The minds free

Seek no glee

Within artificial gems

Pillars of the dark

 

Images

Born of the foresight

Hidden light

Pervades me

Millenary waters breed

The birth of my creed

 

Complex rings

Gather to anthems

The light brings

In lanterns

We roam inside minds’ circles

When dark encircles

 

Waters heal

Touch of the darkness

Distortions

To harness

The pathways to Heart reveal

New Kingdom to come

 

Silence breathes

The inner voices

Soul to soul

Talk to feel

The touch of fear to repeal

My staff my Heart weighs

The mind’s flow

Individual

Breaking down

Components

Parts peering through the glow

The Self a construct

 

To destruct

Remnants of the Self

Composure

Meaningless

The Faith is to the Faithless

Only a con swept

 

Breaching height

Pitfalls of knowledge

Within forts

Steely courts

Restore in me my kingdom

Dancer in the Tides

 

Body lust

Your way to my flesh

Skin unmesh

Will me free

We walk together by three

The shadow ruler

 

Soul abides

By rules unwritten

Rock bottom

Inside delve

They painted the skies in twelve

Thirteen my stardom

 

To instruct

The fruit of sorrow

Hunger game

No longer

Biding by appearances

Unbecome and Be

Of heavenly bloom

Of heavenly bloom

Moods broken

In rain-lit showers

Tireless strife

The orchard

Condensed lily white flowers

Their scent packed in mind

 

To be kind

Is more than a thought

The premise

Inner spin

In battle no will to win

Only outcome Love

 

High above

Flags of white flutter

In crossroads

The junctions

Preliminary choices

When you heed voices

 

Blue highways

They sizzle with cold

Marine flames

Suppression

The fight against oppression

Undercurrent breed

 

Beast you feed

Tames the known hunger

The unknown

A shadow

Growing in the undergrowth

Downtrodden old oath

 

Bear no gloom

The cells replicate

Ancient tales

Forgotten

Aerial messengers will bear

To the dragon’s lair

 

Chest to touch

Boon of loyalty

Kiss to blow

Seed to sow

The roots bear the majesty

Of heavenly bloom

Hold me within you

Another world comforts Life

Guided dreaming mine

Golden streets make dreams’ escape

Higher up blind change

Falling so far down last breath

The edge of feet six

The sun felt hunger

For the skin on my forearms

Its texture and touch

 

I hid in the ice

Cooling me in peace restored

Forgetting the sun

 

Its hunger clamoured

Reaching out to me in ice

Clad in my winter

 

Knowingly I plunged

I had shed clamours of you

Nightingale behind

 

The bird mutated

It grew blue from my traces

My sky-bound agent

 

Shrill it pecked at Heart

Its beak robust though so slight

Spent through ice cracking

Eyelids fluttering

Awoken from my slumber

Open Eye I kept

 

In between noises

I heard your distant sharp cry

But kept Heart in check

 

I know of a Soul

That drifted in oceans’ stares

Growing stark and bleak

 

Unbroken always

Backward loop kept me alive

Time will not come back

 

Diverging paths watch

Heavens choices can be read

In trail of Feathers

 

I stilled Hearts and Minds

A moment of Peace and Love

Pondering choices

Are we done hiding?

Are we done hiding ?

Across time’s slumber

Within weave of web so deep

Our souls will step in

 

I know you read me

My voice a confused whisper

That your soul would hear

 

Your heart reaches out

Entangled in desire

Body through soul speaks

 

I feel your hunger

Ravishing every photon

That in me vibrates

 

Soul’s vision derails

Optical nerves’ wrong eyesight

Of pining unreal

 

Mind wanders to thoughts

Of your possibilities

Tangled past present

 

Close or far you weigh

This urge to delay outcomes

Of intricate tasks

 

Hush, let it shape slow

This second sight of union

Between our two forms

 

I see you, it fades

Intermittent visions shine

Are we done hiding?
