Notes From Underground

Testaments Betrayed

The Words of their Sexus

When The Marriage Plot marked

The End of the Affair

With Mrs. Dalloway and Sister Carrie

(And Wittgenstein's Mistress)

Upon the Blood Meridian

Remained a Sanctuary of Women

And The Plague affected Couples

They were all In One Person

It was The Air-Conditioned Nightmare

And Beyond Good and Evil

In The Garden of Eden

They recorded in Diaries an Infinite Jest

Regarding The Human Stain

And Little Birds singing

"To Exile and The Kingdom"

Declared Mason & Dixon

And The Gambler confirmed

"It was an Inferno of Essays"

Because Tender is the Night

Beyond the Crowned and the Crooked

Someplace between the Memoirs of Cleopatra

and the Hidden Diary of Marie Antoinette;

between Fates and Furies,

War and Peace, and

High Treason;

between the Devil’s Brood of

Queen Margot and Eleanor of Aquitaine.

Someplace In A Dark Wood Wandering

you discover the Grass Crown

which upon your head you place

and see the Naked and the Dead,

that Leonardo’s Swans are translucent,

and that times are not as discordant as those of

the First Elizabeth.

For those marred by the

Fingerprints of the Gods are exposed

and few are found to have

Tales of Passion, Tales of Woe.

Looking Up

We All Looked Up,

with a Thirst

to be Awakened,

to be Marked,

Nevertheless,

stay Untamed.

why do we choose

to be Chosen

and then Betrayed?

we are the Hunted.

Tempted

by the fire,

just to be Burned

by the Dark Flame.

we are the Hidden,

Destined

to be Revealed.

wishing with troublesome want,

to be Redeemed

of our every sin.

Evermore,

we stare to the Blue Moon

of the Shadowland

that shined upon us

with a wicked Radiance,

as We All Looked Up.

Random Assortment

In the Footsteps of Anne Boleyn 

The White Princess walked

Into the Wild. 

The King's Curse was upon

The Lady in the Tower. 

A Game of Thrones

Her bed. 

Human-All-Too-Human,

Her heart bled.

The Wars of The Roses

Raged inside The Bell Jar.

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare

Crossing the ocean to her only family,

Arriving in England where downworlders meet,

Nephilim warriors saves the day,

A new world uncover,

To Tessa in ways.

Kidnapped by Dark Sisters,

Tortured and all,

Truth unfolds itself,

Mystery and all,

A new ability wanted by all,

Nothing will stop to claim her as his own.

Saved by a Nephilim,

Cursing and Quoting,

Promise to help her escape all this thing,

Came two other Nephilims to join the fight,

With it ending her losing her might.

Woke up in the institute,

Tired and all,

Studied by a brother,

With all they know.
