Algernon & Arthur: A Nursery Rhyme
Blotted by smoke
the New Virgin Moon
an awaiting bride
a-chilled to the bone
Under soft black stars
her burning desire
thick in rolling fog
the smell of bonnie fire
But a-winged and a-waiting
still is Sleep and her Dreams
The Nightmare Passage
with things not as they seem
Brave New World in ashes
we swim pages of horror
to drown ourselves so…
to land on their shores
“Once around the grass, twice around the lass, thrice around the maple tree”
-Arthur Machen

Void Egg
In the igniting darkness…
a bell tower tolls—summoning
to the vacant cathedral
vaulted open infinite expanse
The Salvation of Emptiness
Shimmering bright hole
brilliant black pure and ineffable
shine forth, oh eternal-coiled question,
that follows no direction
and no answer has
Searching the boundless within-without
for the Cosmic Nothing
that already penetrates
fertilizing every spark
of this ignited darkness

Queen of endless aeon,
reveal in me your bone blue secrets.
Formal is Death, but only unto Herself.
She will enter without invitation.
While ceremony
incantations
offerings
my pleas to unveil Her riddle

Silhouettes as deep shadow
Against pastel florescence
Dusk or just dawning, a swath of urban gloaming glow
Buildings dark beneath, heavy clouds the same above
The light seeps through a mid-rift in the black
You have returned home to find me, Lover
To empty cement square rooms
Wide-eyed windows gaping at the horizon
Gasping
Open like your mouth
Grasping
Open like your words
Foaming with rage, no
Crying
Open like a wound
Lip torn from its hinges
As sobs gust through you
Tears lapping foam from shores it kisses
Over and over and over
We lay back in greyscale on a mattress bare
As I am now on solid ground and asphalt
Outside and below
With others stumbling in our phosphorescent parade
A vivid, pulsing river of hope through the streets
Carnival begins
