An Ode of Mist.

Journey into night; destination lost
Darkness consoles me
Walking. Watching. Waiting.

The emptiness.

Imbued by the birth of mist
Floating around me, alone yet not lonely
Twisted luminance, a faint outline appears
Humanlike in form, corporeal in construct

Fair, faint, maiden of magic
Away she shifts upon wisps of wind
Rising. Reacting. Running.

The longing.

Always without reach
Dancing before my fingertips
Wicked lips, smiling timidly

Entranced; she slips into my heart
Ceasing flight…arrested vision
Air alters her to me
Touching. Tasting. Twirling.

The euphoria.

Arouse her mind – intoxicate
Ballad of bodies – resonate
Carnal hearts, caress – procreate

Shallow breath, fatigued souls
Lingering threads of emotional bondage
Embracing. Experiencing. Existing.

The moiety.

Reality rises, bringing the dawn
Temporal rendezvous flees
Lies betrayed by light; evaporation of ethereal mist
A path travelled; veracity gleamed; regret kissed goodbye

The catharsis.

    Tried something quiet new (for me at least) with this post. I had fun composing it; happy reading.

Pool of Psychosis. (Part two) I am alive. My torment of encasement continues. Throughout the night, I was constantly reminded of the intimate closeness of the crystal – this multi-faceted cage of pain. My body could not move and for an unknown reason, air was not a necessity. Claustrophobia had long since been replaced by an emotion that far exceeded my understanding of fear. All I knew was that it originated from a previously dormant part of my mind. The dunes taunting song did little to ease my thoughts. A pre-dawn sky finally appears; the light of morning vanquishes the darkness of night. A solar orb crests the horizon and as the rays shine on my crystalline form, it happens… a crack appears on the crystal covering my outstretched hand, a piece pops off and drops onto the sand below. The crack then descends the length of my arm and spreads out covering the entirety of my body following the trajectory of my veins. My cage shatters, splintering away from me in fractals of

The Hunter and the Hunt.  The wind rolls down the mountain and stirs the ancient trees of the forest, gracefully moving through the leaves in unseen patterns. It dips and rises, carrying with it a multitude of scents. Moving about, almost with a purpose, it reaches a point and descends once more. Down it goes towards a figure barely visible in the underbrush. The wind swirls around him and dissipates - all is still.   The hunter takes note of the oddity that has just occurred but does not allow this to distract him as he sees his prey in the distance. Stalking silently through the forest floor, he edges closer to the animal. He comes upon it in a sunlit clearing. A great stag standing tall and proud, horns expanding out elegantly. Knocking an arrow the hunter sights the creature.  Breathing in, he pulls back the drawstring. The stag’s ears twitch, the hunter releases the arrow, a wolf howls, the stag bolts, the arrow misses. Shaking his head in frustration the hunter gets up

Dunes of Delusion. (Part one) I feel it, swirling over me; coarse and warm. The wind carries it at a constant flow across my exposed legs and back. A pressure on my chest informs me that I am lying flat down, face slightly tilted to the side. Muffled sounds come to my attention, too distant for me to comprehend. My throat is raw, my mouth parched; I lever my eyelids gradually apart but can not bring my eyes into focus. My myopic vision finally discerns a twisting pattern of particles…sand! Blinking as my mind clears; I pull my half-submerged bulk out of the ground. Looking around, a barren, dune-filled landscape is all that there is to see. The pale light of a setting sun casts an eerie atmosphere upon the land. I become conscious of the breeze beating against my body once again and look down at myself. My chest is bare except for a multitude of discolourations on my skin, my khaki trousers (they don’t deserve to be called that) is a patchwork of holes and I am shoe-less.
