Cold
I’m always so fucking cold. I’m always freezing- chilled to the bone. The kind of cold that feels like it will never go away. That’s the part that gets to me, more than anything else. More than the fatigue, the dizziness, my constant ...

Cruel Cocoon
cruel residual jewel of venomous emptiness— in the dual mirror— a visual temptress stepping naked coming nearer; you can’t hear her spreading palm down on your chest with pink painted fingernails impaling, pulling off flesh dressed b...

The Ribbon
I loved the play of light and color transforming the shadows of pine needles on the wall. Christmas was all about the smells, the cookies, peppermint. It is the small things that grow indelible on a child’s soul. Even the bad things. That Christm...

Recovery
It’s almost funny how you left me so long ago, yet I am still in recovery. I am slowly, yet surely, healing a bit each and everyday. I’d like to believe that I have completely recuperated from this but I would only be lying to myself, and after dea...

Dirty Whore, Dirty Woman
YOU SOLICITED HIM FOR SEX, YOU DIRTY WHORE. That’s not OK. That’s not even close to OK. You do realize that you’re now in danger of being “that girl” in the newsroom? You remember the chicks like that? You remember that time at your last publ...

Inside Outside
I sit here and hold it inside…. Outside, I am restricted from freedom Inside I’m a child that needs Ritalin jumping around with drool hanging from my mouth Stained with blood and tears I cannot scream I am stripped of all my privileges my ...

Happy Anniversary
Happy anniversary Where ever you may be If you’re rotting in a hole Or if your ask lay by the sea Three summers past since I’ve seen you last Smoke carried your sleepy mind away And blood stained finger tips met their match Some sunny morn in May Y...

One
The beginning of the universe reflects from my eyes, last echoes of dead stars blur across my vision. I am the greatest of the gods of pain, ruler of all I survey. The mere flickers of mortal minds rise in a symphony of torture as I move my practiced h...

Two and Three
We move together, Panic and Chaos, the second and third of the children. We lead the scouts, the assasins, the ones that cause people opposed to us to be dead. We ourselves can move faster than thought, tearing those other than us to pieces, keeping th...

Four
I tend my garden alone, growing plants that I tend to prove I am sane. I can break minds with a gesture, but flowers have none to break. My endless smile is not dampened by unconquered prey, but brightened by the prospect of things I have no power over...

Five
I am the man with no eyes. The Lord of Sight. Fifth of the children. I bridge the chasam between the world we came from and the world in which we hope to remain. I see what needs to be done to keep us here, be it murder of children, torture of dissiden...

Six
Lord of Blood, cape swirling in the eternal wind, ruler of the night. Style, substance and a widow’s peak. Styled after the bloodsuckers of old, in reality a creature from out of nightmares and the infinite horrors held in the dark. Green lightni...

Seven
Creep and skitter, weave my web, decieve, entrance, capture. The three eyes peering from the gloom, the rush of pain and the sound of it all melting away. Trapper and trickster, betrayer and entangler, plotter and schemer. Arachnid, trinocular and para...

Eight
A fallen demon from a Hell more hellish. An imposing figure, long horns, red eyes and leathery wings. Sharp teeth glistening around an ever-present smile, like all the children. The Master of Flame, the pits of hell under my command. I never know the c...
-
Nine
Lost and alone, away from my kind, away from my world. The hatred of the Thirteen is the only thing that keeps me alive. The banished Lord of Smoke, the one that moved through walls, crossed the Barrier on foot, fought One and survived, the smoke I use...

Zones of Impact
Rocks skittered away as I lost my balance. For a moment time stretched out; I was suspended on the edge of eternity. Then I was falling. Head over heels, I tumbled downhill, careening painfully off boulders and tree trunks, rolling through bushes that ...

Ten
Laugh as the world burns, the Lord of Mind who lurks in the outside, clear eyes looking in. Smile constantly as the world starts to crack around the edges, the illusions that people build upon their world try to reassert themselves without success. The...

So i sit here once again. alone and you’re gone, always gone. But are you thinking of me too? See this aching in my brain simply won’t go away until you’re near. always gone. Throb throb bleed bleed out until you sigh and lose sight ...

Worth
How have I failed entirely to prove the worth I feel must be inherent to my life? My soul has lost the drive for futile goals, their purpose now a mystery. I shrink within redundancy, my cries a hollow, lifeless plea for meaning in a broken world of ha...
