Calmness slips in on the footfall of each evening as daylight retires,
Tranquility captains the night,
As do anguish and faithlessness,
Gremlins, rising up from beneath tangled roots,
Emerging with volcanic might,
Seizing the advantage of your slumber.
Bolting upright, you are
Jolted awake into St Vitus’ dance,
Eyes twitching, wide open to what has been missing.
You look and you see and you feel, wordlessly watching
A stark parade of all that can no longer be left behind.
Pushed down for centuries,
Denial is no remedy,
As this tale devours your waking dreams.
Night after agonizing eon,
You labor to thread filaments
Of patience and peace into wickedness and horror.
Early one morning a seam appears
In the seeming endlessness of toil and struggle,
A glimpse of dark Light.
And the grip on your throat loosens,
Releasing your body captive,
Spirit, untethered now
You exhale deeply
With the taste of its name still on your lips.
Pulling another breath,
You step away,
While counting the final hours of the job you came here to do.
“…disaster, when it is quite sure of its own strength, will announce itself by hardly moving its lips…”
Chris Cleave

I want to to thank you for this fantastic read!! I certainly enjoyed every little bit of it.
I have got you saved as a favorite to check out new stuff you post…
Thanks, Foster. Awesome.
My partner and I stumbled over here from a different page and thought I might as well check things out.
I like what I see so now i’m following you. Look forward
to looking over your web page for a second time.
Thanks, Claudio. You are welcome anytime!
Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in trading links or maybe guest
authoring a blog post or vice-versa? My blog addresses a lot of the same subjects as yours and I think we
could greatly benefit from each other. If you happen to be
interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward
to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!

My partner and I absolutely love your blog and find the
majority of your post’s to be exactly I’m looking for.
Does one offer guest writers to write content in your case?
I wouldn’t mind publishing a post or elaborating on a lot of the subjects you write in relation to here.
Again, awesome site!
