Dark Alchemy, Poetry, Digital Art and Photography, Poetry Revisited
Dark Alchemy
where the light
cannot auger
decay goes
unchallenged
by the photonic
order
a noir network is conceived
fed by death and detritus
mycelium spreads
fractals of hunger
feeding deeply rooted
antediluvian descendants
it's a dark alchemy
turning tarnished ores
to basic elements
the forests
evolves upon
the fragments
of its own
disintegration
Fallen Angel
We Shared the Sky
For a night of many sleeps
with the earth as our pillow
we shared the sky
roots were deep
limbs strong
limbs supple
wings wide
sacred glade fertile
leaves from lips
taken by the wind
dried to dirt
given by the rain
to mud
sacred glade no more
you share only earth
for upon it
there is proof
of your tread
wings do not mark the sky
for a day of many sleeps
with the earth as our pillow
we shared the sky
43
Time exists only in the mind
Never uttering a sound
Yet naught can escape
Its call to evolve, build, and decay
Nothing is invulnerable to its touch
Yet it passes without a footstep
Leaving its mark on all
Teach without treading upon
Act without bluster
Time will see to the rest
