Third Shooter
Third Shooter I hear the panic echoing through These constricting walls. Popping of gunfire and Two men shouting. They bring panic to this place. They have brought murder Most foul, with a motive to commit Most cowardly. No, no, I will not Find myself bleeding by their hand. I will not be a victim ofContinue reading “Third Shooter”
Casing Conqueror
Casing Conqueror In metal you plant metal. In the brass soil Stems of iron wire Sprout from copper roots. So the dew that forms Carries traces of earthy metal. When winter comes and goes The scent changes as it blooms. When the petals split in spring The buds and leaves Smell of syrup and sugarContinue reading “Casing Conqueror”

Ivory
Ivory Hunt all the broken boughs. Tear apart The High-horse crowds. Let the cannons from forts fly, Fire away from The loophole Sights. Our king in his tower Is above, reigning power, Paying us to keep our Undying faith. I’ve an undying mind and A revolting axis, I carve out my ivory In between attacks.Continue reading “Ivory”
Ebony
Ebony Experience backbones resolve Against foreign threats Of distant dystopian Probable possibilities. Probabilities rife with potential To infest and lay waste to A diligent machine Of otherwise absolute purity. They lay siege to the machines Built of fine cherry wood. They sap and deny the device What it desires. Its passion is a fractal, InfinitesimallyContinue reading “Ebony”
