God, god, oh god, I am so scared.
So so scared, to do what I yearn to do.
Scared, scared, oh so freaking scared,
to do what I need to do to live,
truly live – not just survive.
I am so shaking nervous
to let go of the tiny bird in my hand,
although I know holding on to it
won't do me nor it any good.
So, so, so afraid to fail
when hunting for the two in the bush,
ever evasive birds of peace of mind and freedom.
But I'll need both their wings
to finally fly.

Youth
A thousand burning candles
lighting up a temple.
With the quenching of the last flickering flame
the aegis falls,
and the sacred building crumbles.

drops her weapons to the hospital floor
and screams.
father rejoices - a princess! i'll teach her
everything.
mother still screams.
father, laughing - i pity the boy who asks for her hand.
mother holds baby and shrieks.
father's skin crawls - why aren't you happy?
mother screams. mother howls. mother, inconsolable
(everyone dies but girls are always
born dead)
Literature
21st century child
The most important thing I've learned,
So far as children are concerned,
Is to never Never NEVER
let them come near your computer screen ever.
Oh yes, I know it keeps them still,
They don't climb out the window sill,
They never fight or kick or punch,
They leave you free to cook the lunch
They will spend their entire day
Texting and clicking and typing away, but hey!
At least you can wash the dishes in the sink --
But did you ever stop to think,
What this social media and whatnot
Does it your beloved tot?
IT ROTS THE SENSE IN THE HEAD!!
IT KILLS IMAGINATION DEAD!!

demons, all of you, i am no longer afraid.
i am longer afraid, to give up what i've yearned for.
numb, desensitized, just so very numb,
even to everything hastening my death,
can it really be - i don't want to live any longer.
i am standing here so patiently
tightly gripping the beast in my chest,
i cannot feel it in my hands
but it feels like i am doing something.
i have lost the will to win
when i cannot lose the two between heaven and earth,
the ever-present dragons of chaos and order.
but i don't need either one of their talons
since i've already fallen.
