    Times Of The Old

    \t\t\t\t\tThe jaws of the battlefield
    Are laden with regret.
    The place where your day starts and ends
    Is a comfortable place,
    Yet in reality just another object.


    Delicate hands soften her presence
    But too much of her company
    Can drive you completely insane.


    Ears tuned with intensity
    Hear absolute silence,
    The brain stuck on contentedness
    Was unable to dream.


    The spirit of the journey
    Was always quite beautiful,
    But the deadliest alive.


    The radiant cylindrical halls
    Enhance every beauty,
    The repetitive little kicks
    Are all that keep you going.


    Fiction based characters
    Always made you wonder.
    Synchronized appearances struck once again.

    Delta, Delta, Kilo

    \t\t\t\t\tSo technology failed, it had its reign
    It brought us pleasure but much more pain.
    So your feign opinions can consume you
    As shall I with these fumes who
    Shout and scream emotions I can't feel.
    “It's chaos, it's madness, Absurd!”,
    They protest, I jest, you never heard
    My voice in that crowd. That loud,
    Annoying and seemingly distant shroud.
    It calls you, it beckons, but you being you,
    You second guess and I reckon you're
    Right. I know, I've been there, it's
    Bright but it's deceitful, it's a seat full
    Of rags and hair, smelling of beers and tears.


    I look at where I am,
    On this land of confusion,
    People around me dig their heads in the sand.
    I know it's no better,
    And I considered your letter
    But I'd rather be conscious
    Than lost in this anxious fear you describe.
    Please do not hide me,
    But don't flaunt me,
    That haunts me!


    Maybe the mountain shall
    Be my glass fountain, I'll
    Follow this morrow all the way to the peak.
    When i reached a flat spot the bleakness
    Departed. My heart built a shelter
    Which became my delta, my delta, my kilo.
    The ledge was my hero, the trees were my death;
    I had thought them my friends until they stole my breath.

    When Cyclops Run The Town

    Swear that cyclops run this town,
    When the psychics see it coming.
    Little is left to salvage from
    The smoking blackened houses.
    A cold look. There. A lost one there.
    Looks from all around.
    Stumble here. And stumble there.
    The ground is cluttered with debris,
    But sunshine weeps upon the ground
    And from it grow new houses.
    New work and love make everything
    work just fine and dandy,
    the cyclops fall and once again
    the good guys rule the psychics.
    But slowly good guys rise above
    and create the existence of classes.
    No good guys left. Just idle men
    watching at their windows.
    Waiting, watching, looking for
    their neighbours stealing crops.
    Then all at once the neighbour cries
    as men they knew become beasts.
    “Off to jail, the man has sinned!”
    the cyclops' chant as one.
    And then the buildings re-emerge
    and the psychics are consulted.
    Then embers catch a gust of wind
    And flames disperse onto the streets.
    The houses burn to ashes fast
    and there is nothing left to salvage.
