CAMELOT FANTASIES

Still sultry city nights hot with promise
Glow with anticipation in neon brilliance
An emerald temptress hidden in shadow
Silken rapture revealed in her gaze
Lures mortal men to a mind blowing end
Wrapped in her arms to the very end🔥

#precious memories
Raining down
Each one a tear
I may just drown

Never forgotten
Always in my heart
A candle glows
Lighting the dark

“I see the #boy I knew in the man before me”
All grown up and walking the path he chose
That he spoke about when we first me in 1st Grade
In those innocent times oh so many years ago

Yesterday’s Shadow slowly consumed by a Golden Dawn
As Virgo Weeps silver raindrops for the fading Moon Glow
Mourning her lover’s passing while the North Star
In cool white brilliance shines illuminated benediction
And the universe spins on trailing broken dreams

Tyre tracks muddy heading East
Forest shadows hide a beast
Roots so black they do conceal
A beating heart dying beneath
Petrichor emanating in sweet breaths
Willows weep a cleansing aftermath
Rest in peace sweet innocent child
This place your cage eternally wild

Stranded at midnight
The city howls around you
Disoriented & alone
Screams shatter the night
Flesh crawls with foreboding
Eerie neon dances ahead
A hotel beckons
Will you be a guest?
Do you have a choice?
You’ve nothing to lose
Except your mind & your soul

And as the Gods answered his prayers, the heavens opened

Artistic sensuality
Brushstroke allure
Timelessly captured
In sweeping elegant lines
Translating elusive beauty
In the eye of the beholder
For those beguiled
And those enchanted
Spellbound by the mystery
In velvet brown eyes

A tarnished #reputation
Bloody stain upon a memory
Once cherished in the knowing
Now turned to mourning ashes
Lost upon a vengeful wind
Dusty petals strewn about
Carpet the tomb of a lost once love

I call #bullshit

I’ve not yet said anything

Don’t care, I’m still calling it

You’re not even willing to listen?

Nope!

Even when this may save your life?

D’you know how often I’ve heard that?

You can’t just give up!

I’m fresh out of hope!  Cancer’s won!

Weave a #spell - make it plain

‘Twas the sound of the pistol cocking that drew my attention
The hammer drawn back made my head swivel
Staring down the barrel of a .45 held steady on my head
Vengeful eyes full of hate stared back above a twisted smile
My death seen deep in that gaze

Straight shot of whisky
Make it a double
Gonna be a good night
Give everyone a round
Playing the odds
Never felt so good
Dangerous combination
Luck, shots n hope
Double down n dusted
Roll the damn dice
Show me the $
& get me another shot
Won’t ask twice

Through #verdant meadows did we walk
As Summer bloomed and we did talk
Of hopes and dreams when we were grown
Oh how swiftly the many years have flown
As I think back on memories so very sweet
I thank the day that we first did meet

 #vss365

So many sins have I committed
#stacked so high St Peter himself weeps
No forgiveness for a soul so stained
Blackened heart that beats for none
This my confession to the silent night
Before the Devil himself
Comes to steal me from sight

#Quit?  You mean just stop?  Like that?

Yep

Not that easy

Willpower, man, it’s all about willpower

Yeah, well, I need a cigarette for that

Just do it

Easy for you to say

Hey, it took willpower not to start in the first place

Yeah, yeah, so you say

Tranquil serenity embraces my soul
Soothing balm to all of life’s stresses
A silent language the universe speaks
For those who can hear yet have no ears
Or those who may see yet have no eyes

#DimpleVerse
...

Whisper it soft
Hell has ears
Rumours and lies
Sail upon surging seas

Jealous rivalries
Discord and clarion
Bedevil the conscience
Poison the mind

Storm clouds churning
Pregnant with portent
Loom on the horizon
Bitter and stagnant

Low lights & lush shadows
In sultry corners do linger
Play me a melody in soft notes
To caress my waiting senses
In rhythmic persuasion
That captures - entrances
Your after hours seduction
Wicked wiles & charms
Consumes my mind
Devours my desires

#madverse

What can I give you
When you have everything
And I have nothing
That you could ever need
Yet still hope burns
A warming flame
Within a lonely heart
That yearns to be tamed

#BecomingFragile
...

I heard there was a waiting list
Names & numbers taken
The Devil ticking off one by one
He knows the Hell you’ve been raising

A special place just for you
Up front in the place of honour
Right beside the hungry furnace
For U my wicked friend are a goner

They came in the night
Through forest & field
Creeping through hedgerows
Hoping we’d yield

Yet on the dawn
As mist unveiled
They found us waiting
Blocking the trail

Shoulder to shoulder
Did we stand our ground
Strange bedfellows in need
No one backing down

#TalesNoir
...
Chasing the sun in a shimmering sky
The endless Summer of young love
When youthful passions flame to life
Following the unwinding open road
To where the horizon never ends
Living our dreams on freedom’s road
Wind-kissed hair tossed by a lover’s hand

Neon zombie in the dead of night
I see you there - a beacon of light
The seething city awaiting your feast
Unleash the hell - unleash the beast
Blind their senses til they’re overcome
Devour their souls until you’re done

#intent could never be proven
No body and now no witness
Swallowed whole in a lost bayou
It’s a Southern thing, I’m telling you
And most certainly no one’s business
