Crossed wrath, we deliver Travesty in Faith And Praise? Praise is unfounded In this scorched earth Commonality in mundanity Whilst it burns With our lives unmoving Whilst it burns God’s belittling of heathens and followers alike Whilst it burns There exists nothing For the devout For the gracious For the suffering Only the ones who … Continue reading The Truth We Know
For Her
I never knew her I only felt her A presence beyond comprehension Words could never paint a picture So beautiful Yet she not only felt me She knew me And therein lies the bellyache The herds of butterflies Goodness Gracious! Racing thoughts compete with one another As cold sweat fill every particle Every gland possibly … Continue reading For Her
Rick and Morty: The Tragic Character
[It is assumed Rick's wife is dead, however, with this show, nothing is certain. This post is possibly conjecture.] In Season 4 episode 2 of Rick and Morty, we find one of our titular characters in Rick willfully isolated once again, with a poignancy that near-suffocates the atmosphere of its ending. For anyone who has … Continue reading Rick and Morty: The Tragic Character
Mister Rogers Neighborhood
Condensed mist Penetrate our flesh And wet the pavement And wet the bars Steel engorged in showers Piercing the bleak with rust We trudge anyway A trek along cement “You'll never change!” The graffiti shrieks from a distance Melting alongside the broken glass Empty liquor amongst cheeky children We run and we slip and we … Continue reading Mister Rogers Neighborhood
Today
Crowded steps on a stairwell Holidays creep steadily, Latching onto our ankles And our fathers are not home Golden and brown and transparent are The choices of comfort today, or rather To cope, meads and wheat follow Our breaths of cold air Shining lights, but an empty hue Scream cheese!

How about a deaf fellow Singing sweet, sweet nectar? Perhaps an affluent woman With golden eyes and nothing more? On … Continue reading Inksmiths
Trials of Man
Live like Christ Ain’t that the wise To suffer longer, and to writhe Holy ceremony, details the hegemony Firefighters burn the cross Children breath’s .2 intake Car exhaust Thorns pricking the sides of needs God’s faith tests those Under the spell of meads Feeds the Grail filled His thirst satisfied By the lost’s tears distilled … Continue reading Trials of Man
Lost in Thought
I, whilst attempting to resolve my own psychological problems, hit the metaphorical bricks at break-neck speed during my late teens and early twenties. You see, several years ago I was suffering from what I could only describe as intrinsic loss/purposelessness. My mind and body were in disarray. As to try some sort of remedy, I … Continue reading Lost in Thought
Colder Days
Fading are the colors We’ve seen together The connections worn By us, and us alone Yet gray paints the horizon With our hearts Dulling in rhythm Thrown into disarray We once found comfort In the hymns we hummed In the silence we sought In the bonds we bound Ourselves to the bleak Patches formed by … Continue reading Colder Days
For Those who Waver in Today’s World
To combat the existential crisis we’re all faced with, we empower things that are humanly palpable to the extent in which they’ve become far more than the common man can express. Leaning towards faith isn’t the death of man’s sympathy; rather, it provides to those who seek comfort a reason to continue on. Being good … Continue reading For Those who Waver in Today’s World
