WorldVision.

aurora borealis, chemical collision

her and him, meeting of worldvision

moscow to mintz, all chemistries convinced

wasting the dawn, riding hells highway amidst

dripping with synergy and alchemy

echoing arts deep cuts and dark vibrancy

bright midnight in the towns and the bays

the tombs, the catacombs, the nights into days

snaring of the sun and undercover of the nights

tempting fate, resurrect us father, here as you might

RAW

brothers now soldiers, lovers now mothers

disastrous love, torments flesh and blood

head over heels, palpitations, perspiration

if love is a gun, pull the trigger, have faith

land of no fun, freedom or bravery

tranquil, no. turmoil? a whole other thing

skies forfeit colour like a corpse turned grey

here were are, war, such a fleeting futile thing

war is hell states that helmet, emboldered in paint

waste not, want not states the chief to his mate

mud, blood and tears, bodily juices it rains

get on the front line you soldier

or else for you its disdain

Dead Poets Society

the embers from delight

form this fateful flight

of desires, disguised bright

autumns leaves are burning

zevons in his grave and spurning

peace and quiet, more like churning

curtis, morrison and elvis too

not forgetting cobain, cornell and the buckley crew

beauty begets pain like a moth to the flame

life finds you unawares

sometimes death does too

one may be dear

while the other's few

propaganda's like a glue

trapped in its grasp

your skin turns ice blue

poor you, poor you

Lovers Requiem

all the unsettling fades away into the sunsetting

let down your defenses on the hill of love

while carmine and crimson paint the sky above

a moment gone but never forgot

times like these cant be traded or bought

they say that gold or silver is an old fools thought

stripping off layers of dead fears; we are alive

immersed then emerging our souls now survive

lovers in London

lovelorn no more

for here loneliness dies

and so does goodbyes

Awoken

denouncing the call to loneliness

he's the thorn waking Rose up

from the nightmare of her life unloved

craving for each others touch

sending spasms through two souls

with a warmth and a wild ride while

here in this abyss we call home

Devoid

withdrawn from family, fiends and foes unseen

who wants loves longing when life's so obscene

desires needs not but recoils like a dream

so when, o' when? cried the wolf to its den

life is so futile, only three score and ten

find the lamb for me, at last give me zen

until we are dust, in God we must trust

vortex of vices; virtues and victory

faded and jaded, tempests don't tempt us

lead us not into lust, depression or doubt

on earths blackest night, our heart be devout

fighting the good fight, our name is not faust

Aphrodite Rose

a Rose for Him

as if from Venus herself

once lost, so alone

forever apart, now one, an eloping

from life's mysteries

and desires unspoken

entranced with the snakes dance

this mortal coil unbroken

entwined with red wine

sacred souls scorched sweetly

from old poets now divine

devoured by mad love, deeply

and to be buried inside

the tainted tomb of lavish lovers

unlocked, yet lost in the wild

entrenched undercovers

what will we find

when death becomes her

no more she spellbinds

blonde curls, red velvet and her leopard skin fur

this girl in grey dies to hide behind

unchained from bed, enchained for rapture

revived by long lashes and his black leather stature

brown eyed boy, beautiful monster, it's the end of her plight

he could set this girl aright, if only he knew

tightly held under weeping willow 'till twilight

wild at heart, he's whipped for you

an ocean apart, a fortnight of delight

bitten and beaten, merci beaucoup

beauty killed the beast and i love you
