49 year old man who looks nothing like profile picture. And yes, I do believe in faeries😊
In the moment we fell
Lifting us, drifting us
Away from our cell
As we reached higher
We tore out the feathers
And set them on fire
Wings again formed
As we welcome our hell

Illuminating the dark
Stillness carries weight
Across a lonely car park.
Speakers sing tinny
Songs that echo
Out across the empty
Out in the cold.
Sodium street lights
Reflecting on snow.

Here in our home
For beyond these walls
The evil has grown
But no need of fright
We are safe on this night
The holly is hung
The words have been sung
Hold me close now
As we welcome the light

Though an evergreen, year round presence, this leaf has become a symbol of winter, and everything associated with it.

Like statues to behold
Frozen, there are so many
Adventurers, brave and bold
The bodies now glimmering
With frost, or so I’m told
I would never go there
I fucking hate the cold

Still me in a way
I remember this face
But something has changed
The lines have grown deeper
And emotions, they fade
My reflection bends
And I look away

The ones I trusted, loved
Walked me to the chamber
Men in robes surrounded me
Dragging me to the center
They tried to drown me
From under the water
I heard angry shouts
In unknown tongues
They said I was forgiven
But I never knew
For what

And so little stays
Paper becomes dust
As together we age
Our memories and fears
We share them as one
A breath on a page

Not just one
A whole mess
Our friend Quill
No more
The flowers steal
His last breath
Now, I’m not saying
He won’t be missed
But let me introduce
Your new Wildwalk host
Who goes by the name
Fliddais

Today I give you something that I am horribly allergic to. Gather enough of them in a room and I can't breathe.

Before the sight
Smelling the flight of
The flies that swarmed
Here in the cold
The night air was
Warmed with decay
An old terror crawled
But you pushed it away
Steadied and bold
You knew in your heart
That here you must stay

Resistance to
The status quo
Knowing you lack
The mind to mention
The will to question
That maybe your life
Has passed beyond
Your own attention

We dig up the bones
Tell a story that bends
We burn and destroy

Bury the ashes

To cleanse us of all sin
We’ll sing and dance

Fear swelling in my chest
As the ocean takes
A defensive position
As if the waters feel fear
I raise up my arms and
Promise no harm
Will come from me
The waves begin to calm
