Again, The Moon Full
It was a clear night as the Moon looked down with apathy upon the dwellers on the city
Going about their important tasks with intense intent, feeling a sense of inner pity
Meaningful and yet oh so meaningless, trying to make sense of it all
Fit everything into the quantum soup, existence in this urban sprawl
Such strange ingredients to work with. Moon, what say you?
Do those lost souls floati...

Hypnotica
Hypnotica
The girl showed her fangs, most when alone
Her nails grew bigger, clear and they’re cold;
Escort; chaperone.
She showed her fangs when she got him alone
Clawing at skin; she’s ice and she’s cold
Showed her his doors and how they won’t close
Inside the living; curtains and carpets stained with cologne.
Epoxy the vase, stuck on the phone
Shirt into shre...

City Streets
These mean streets?
Or inspired living?
Our choice I guess…
Urban life
To some safety in numbers
To others oppressively overcrowded
What we focus on
Give attention to

And yet here we have nature
Surviving against all the odds
Offering hope to humanity
What will you choose to see?

The Lakes Have Eyes
The Lakes Have Eyes

There was only one day, prior to autumn before the earth cooled
When the sky grew stressed and pelted us with rain, i...

Wilderness: a thought on urbanisation
Wilderness: that where animals exist. That where humanity finds no reason to be. And yet we're all somehow standing in wilderness. Or that which was once it.
The fallen tree logs, the leaves that had to wilt way before they ripened into green beauties. The guardians of these, left stranded by humanity in a labyrinth of concrete structures, metallic towers and blinding dusty smoke and thereupon...

The Land
Sitting to the east
Sloping down to the edge
Of that other world
In the summer sun
In the winter chill
The sentinel watched over
The little family in the cottage in the hollow
Lately it had felt her sorrow
It knew when she left Pant y Lleiniau
And walked slowly along the cart track
To reach the little bridge under the trees
Where she crossed Nant yr Efail ...

Into The Wilderness
Into the Wilderness
Into the wilderness we went. Edhweirft and Hwyrflung swirled above us, blowing and bustling through the treetops. Watching. Threatening. But maintaining a safe distance as the trees protected us
