Angels dancing in a midsummer's night

It is cold.
Above me the abyss
The City's ironic glare. 
A work of art. 
Her rendition of van Gough 
Without the subtle strokes. 

Below. 
Globes, radiant globes. 
Worshiped by monoliths. 
Stoned architects of the wild.
The rhythm of the night...
It banishes cowardly spirits. 
Holstered arias. Bested by beasts.

The sky erupts. 
The silence now triumphant. 

The pin drop is heard. 

A weapon of mass destruction.

Button-nose (Christmas with Sadie)

"One mustn't feed stray dogs.
They may follow you home.
One must be kind to animals, Certainly.
Never (though) with the affection one would give to
a suitor. One mustn't play games with dangerous pets
or teach them to play dead by example."

Our hearts grow bigger as we meet new faces and make new friends.
So too as our hearts grow bigger do they also grow heavier as those new faces leave our lives.
What once was a mighty pillar of satisfaction has now fallen on harsh times.

Please be kind, sweet Persephone.
Please be gentle.

To see the Pale Moon while at sea.

 A golden Firefly at dusk, Illuminates the yellow sky with pale streaks of light.
It's overwhelming glow blinds the weak of heart. and forces them
to see what is not theirs.

Orange tulips wild and free
tell us things that can never be.
the pains of past are horns of plight
forever bow at hatreds might

A whiter breeze, that shallow feel.
a straining force that makes me kneel
a breath so cold it make me warm
like a gentle trample of a swarm
with bats and bees that have no wings
where on my feet I feel the stings
a poison bite, a rabid claw.
as veins erupt I stand in awe.

I feel the venom in my head.
it hurts me so. I'm still not dead
a needled itch goes down my throat.
I see a light. I'm on my boat.
and as I travel through the see
a simple wave will tarnish me.

"10 restless knights" pt. 10.: Spam's Tale.

  I have to say this as a way of defending my name and the nae of my children.
I am far from an IDIOT and a drunkard.
I mean, Just because I drink every hour of every day and I just happen to be drunk now. doesn't make me
at *HIC drunk..

THAT!
is for thelordalmightytodecide. NOT some IDIOT Priest and his IDIOT Wife.
and I'm not stupid either!
As a Matter of FACT
I am probably the MOST Intelligent person in this.
THIS stinkin' town you SEE!
I have this system you SEE
I let EVERYONE THINK I'm and IDIOT drunk.
so that they disregard me.
I sit alone.
I listen
I write what I  hear and sell it to some phony prophet.
who then sells his prophecies to the real IDIOTs
who then act on what they believe is true.
I sometimes. on dry days mostly sell the prophet lies.
most of which come to benefit me.
I have been gifted with confiscated gold from an evidence shed
that I am in charge of.

FRIENDSHIP

"10 restless knights" Pt. 9.:Blake's Tale

I see everything that goes on in this small world.
I draw everything I see. Good deeds. Bad deeds.
even indifferent deeds
I am a quick painter.
I illustrate almost instantly.
many knights know of my artwork.
they wish to see what goes on.
who cheats on who.
and who stole from whom.
and what was that which was stolen.
very rarely to they come to see what good deeds have come to pass.

Today a man of great stature and brawn asked to see an image of a man whom murdered royalty.
I showed him the image for a price. and as quick as he came he left.
he also took some pictures of a thief and a con artist.
the man enforced the law and I provided reason.

I was once asked If I could tell the future with my art.
he wished to know the outcome of the war.
I told him I could not draw the future.
the man became irate and then purchased an image of a cannibal eating his own brother.
the truth is I can tell the future with my art.
because from the past all future actions spout.
I have seen it all before.

DEITY

"10 restless knights" Pt. 8.:Artwole's tale

  Greetings and thank you.
why yes I AM better than you.
I'm faster, Stronger and I do every thing quite perfectly.
I am paid very well.
but only when there is no one else working along with me.
I am paid what 10 people's lives are worth.
just yesterday I was building the most expensive, and intricate
outdoor shelter structure in all the outskirts.
or even the front line. etc.
builts with planks of elements
 that spawn human hatred and greed.

an element so precious,
kings and men of great valor and strength
are the ones who carry it.

it was once believed that
sages and wizards combines rocks and magic to forge it.

In my recent adolescence.
I have realized that I two have a superior brain.
and using my powerful mind.
I have thought of a plan you see.
to keep the gold.
I use bright rocks.
he will never know the difference.

ECONOMICS

"10 restless knights" Pt. 7.: Moog's Tale

  Today was good.
I made a lot of money.
the war has been good for me.
I have been making good business.
In my kitchen I have been cooking non-stop.
meal after meal sold to the poor.
but mostly to the wealthy.
many poor beg for food.
but cannot afford it.
so I wait. I watch them starve.
today I found three dead at my doorstep

I made a stew.
sold it to the rich whom ate it gratefully
they say I am the greatest chef in the world
I whole heartily agree
the fruit of our laborers.
is the most delicious meal in our world.
I have tasted my meals
many times before I made a business out of it.

if not for their hard labors in the front-line
I'd be left with nothing.
less than nothing.
