He died in the Ark

He died in the Ark
Drowned in sailor suit
A dropping deck for pitch in flame
Not made of balance iron nor dream round

He was the right man for marriage

Wives of sons
Sons of wives
The dress is torn

The flood honours extinction
Unclean, wrong
Deep as the curse
The water lies
His death is missing...

We cannot stand against this city!

Send Helen back to them
One day we too shall love...

A door in a cave
Haunted by fallen tombs
Telling empty

Bright under thunder a beautiful girl in marriage is led away by disappearing fairy folk

Walled
Vague lantern near to death bed
An old man watches the peace
This is the cave...

Blood Mage

by IndigoAngelUshiku

Twisted Maleficarum turned abomination
desperately seeking a return to one's humanity.
Expelling demons,
pumping passion like the blood that summoned them.

Bleeding tears, sweating fears
soaked in trepidation.

Summon some feeling
no time for healing
when paint is just pain with
twin pronged brush strokes.

Tattered, trying, tonal
carving truths into wretched parchment
