Quiet in form
Subtle mistakes
Hushed storm
Heart that aches
Words unspoken
Emotion quakes
Vows are broken
when silence breaks.

Starry night
into Deep Black
No planets sighted
No turning back
Worm hole ahead
No error allowed
Into its middle
Or we get plowed

- Walking in Mist >
Walking in mist.
Sad to the bone.
Moonglow shining;
I have no home.
Forsaken, lost,
in defeat.
Reflect.
Rinse.
Repeat.

- Be With Me >
Be with me.
I’m all alone.
Nobody to visit.
Nobody to phone.
Whether old
or sick
or crippled
or slow
people don’t visit.
They don’t want to know.

Losing everything
is in the cards
for almost everyone.
The trick is
how you recover
once all’s said and done.

- Uncharted Space >
Uncharted space
is where we go
Uncharted space
is all we know
We triangulate
from pulsar planes
so we can get
back home again.

- Necromancer >
The necromancer
was out of her league
Tried to raise the dead
Try As She Might
in a state of fright
Raised Eyebrows
were all she did!
