Deep, outside oceans
Hiding, cowered in their secret caves
Alone, quiet, lurking
Riding –
The darkness, of their waves
Calmly, the frozen present
Glides, along as a time shunned slave
As a vessel of empty
Writhing –
Into an extant chaos, forever, depraved
Interspersed, amongst the sprits
Life, listens, along a spectrum shaved
And prays, for new awareness
Diving –
Into the blackness, of their graves.
To the Southern Cross >>

Retractions,
Of darkness
Revolutions,
Of heat
Restorative,
Anti-photons
Retraces,
Complete.

Heavy, helium, hydrates
Hark –
To potential, gone by
Hard, high harboring, hotrons
Harp –
To a neutral, gone awry.

Reflections-
Bright and lonely
Yearning for instinct
Brave, volatile
Receiving inputs
In an output led existence
Screaming, for an identity
Within a consciousness
Of attempted being.

Marching through the ridges
Riding down their sides
Directs a retro guidance
Into a port, tact, glide.

An isochrone, shrine
In a canyon, sublime
Shapes the texture
Of distance –
Into a parallax,
Design.

Vanishing visions
Decide my role
Through varying vapors
Aside –
My soul.

Flowing river down
Down, a dark ground
Is the signal,
Of an essence,
Un-found.

Burning –
Unrefined
Through a present,
Unaligned
Reveals the whisper-
Of dark shadows,
Intertwined.
