Under My Bed
Midnight calls, eyes close,
Fear overtakes my sanity,
These voices are real;
in the closet-under the bed, everywhere,
I can hear them breathing;
Calling me into their realm,
I try but cannot see them,
I just know they are here taunting my every thought,
tormenting me about life, deeds, even misdeeds,
Their laughter fuels my tensions,
My pulse quickens as I am in their sway,
paralyzed, I cannot move,
My body consumed by the black,
My gasps fall on dying lights,
This could be my last breath,
Please, Constance, enter my dreams,
Please, save me.

Is it Dead
Are there ashes
Mourning masses
Candlelit coming together
Paradigm shifts
Healing of rifts
Cultured coalescence
An end to obsolescence
One unified incandescent
Front
Do we want
Less and offer more
Is it crashing or gently scored
To split, to groove
Watch how shadows move
Chasing copies
Like Silents before Talkies
We've all got these
Shades
Ambivalent restless retrograde
Formless facile overplayed
Catnap, ratrap racing in flames
Subordinating shame
Blast radius armchair blame
Tepid terror totaled, tame
Dice like defeated dreams fall
Well off enough building walls
Safe
Grace made fake
Mistakes and tickertape
Witnesses solemnly state

Tiamat is Dead
Tiamat is dead
She who was one of the first two beings in existence
Consort of Apsu and mother of the gods
Tiamat died long ago, killed by her grandson Marduk
Tiamat is dead
Marduk slew her
Marduk fought Tiamat
Marduk engaged her in a titanic struggle
Marduk held Tiamat’s vast jaws open with the winds
He shot arrows down her gullet
Tiamat is dead
Marduk split once-mighty Tiamat in two
From her two halves he created Heaven and Earth
Mighty Marduk carved up her corpse
He quelled her great salt waters and tamed them
From Tiamat’s consort, Kingu, Marduk took life’s blood
Which he used to birth the race of man
That lives and dies
