The shadows come  to pay the sum  Every little pain  leaves a stain  But it is gold  to behold  the universe unfold  Darkness is only old  These aeons pass  But a legacy lasts  When a new age dawns  its freshness warms   This breeze will stay  The earth will its swords lay  when the messiah’s resoluteContinue reading “The messiah’s word: A poem “

Prod your ribs. Smack your lips  Paradise is at your fingertips  Zombies fill the garbage tips  It is the day of the packaging whips  Your soul is empty, your room is full  Over your eyes is the occluding wool  It’s getting hotter, but you are cool  It is the age of the gullible fool  The trendsContinue reading “All in the package: A poem “
