Chimera-like dreams Worlds of illusion Spirit asunder Heart of confusion X-ray eyes Hands that lie Legs like wood A will that should
Where does the whim take me now? How did my reason become cowed? Where has the whole of myself gone? Why is there no light in the sun?
How quickly this spirit becomes consumed Roiling in dead hopes and love subsumed Rending the image, the draft of a man Fire and electricity out of the can
Shifting the Planes of feeling and thought Til all that there is becomes measured as nought

The Grimm
Who causes you such pain? Well it could only be Him The monarch of misery The enticer to sin
Who forged your chains? We certainly know who The king of the liars An enslaver of fools
Who sows your torments And scripts all the drama? The reaper of souls An evoker of trauma
Who’s this fell creature? Sneering its formidable grin Chortling through the darkness The demon named Grimm

THE MAN WITH X-RAY EYES (originally by Bauhaus) "Shoes that no man would want to wear Wipe away the night's last cold stare Red fist curled 'round the house Was away boy Shelly's shoes wash Chocolate power is so crisp The atomic open house is really here And we have gone so desperate Your power knows no bounds And heavier with time Are our shoes That no man would want to wear New tread wipes a wet road so dry it stings Into the borrowed course Under the dreadful birds Under the singing soil And all those guilty clouds I have seen too much Wipe away my eyes Too much"
This is the flower that bloomed in the Fall The rose of the valley The love without tally The spirit that awes The bloom without flaw The Dragon’s choicest thrall
She is the aniline child of the Autumn The Goddess in bloom The gift of the moon The bulwark from fear The succor from tears The Dragon’s pain forgotten
Soft as the breeze Sharp as the thorn Deeper than seas Ever reborn
Psalms of the Siren Faerie’s bright laughter Passions of the Muse Burning hereafter
This the rose of the Celestial Drake Its coils thus unfurl It embraces our world In its one perfect peace Its rage’s surcease Her kiss, like hypnotic mandrake

BLOOD SIGHT
Go on… Unlock the mirror Gaze at the images beyond Beyond the flocks of birds The herds of kine And all those dreams within
Unlock the mirror Open the rented house Truth's fragment is sharp Don't cut yourself On Kaleidoscopic scenes
Unlock the mirror Transcend the everyday Crimson sighted, harrowing Cults of ashen supplicants Legacies of those forgotten times
White stars emerge from nothingness Black suns are birthed from a kiss Grey seas, opaque, are so serene Red are the revolutions, yet unseen
Unlock the mirror End this contrition Unlock the mirror Thoughts resigned
Unlock the mirror Blind your vision Unlock the mirror Rend your mind
