A favorite of mine

For posterity's sake, I have to include one of my all-time favorite quotes ... it's one o' those lines I wish I had invented:

"The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long, and you have burned so very, very brightly." -- taken from the film "Blade Runner"

Seuss on the Brain

I catch what I hatch,
And fetch what I snatch.
There's too much in this batch.
Too big a hole to patch.
So best fasten the latch,
Lest we all meet our match.

The letch lurches in the dark.
The leaches storm the beaches,
Until the battle breaches,
Our hearts and homes and reaches,
Our souls and doth beseech
That the world must now bequeath:

Freedom.

Profoundly Perverse

Sadness surrounds us, because we choose to harbor pain.
We pray for endless sunlight, but would rather drown in rain.

A Simple Matter of Fact

Far too many people in this world would die of dysentery if asked to shit and chew gum at the same time.

Pearls of Dawn

The glint in your eyes
Reveals your disguise
You shake and realize
The ache in your thighs

Your thorn is too hot
Best not touch that hot spot
Let it throb, let it moan
Let it yearn, let it groan

Kneel down and approach
The flower awaits
The nectar releases
Too tempted to taste

Devious smile that speaks so sweetly
Velvet hips compel completely

Tulips engorged, two lips abide
Tongue tangles betwixt, across and inside
Arise and arouse
Cry out and espouse
The virtues of flesh
All flush in this mesh

Recoil, relive and repeat
Alive, alight and complete
Come forth and take hold
Conform to the mold

The dagger is tense
Taut in suspense
Thrust forth, thrust forth
Once more, thrust forth

Buried inside
The tide rushes in
Crashes and curls
And collapses in sin

Ride on and find
Ride on and grind
Ride on and grip
Ride on velvet hips

Pull in and pull back
Hold on and retract
Shiver, rewind
Intense and entwined

The button is ready
Hold on and rock steady
Thrust once again
Just begging to end

Pulsing, perspiring
Rising, aspiring
Locked in, never tiring
Exploding and firing

The bodies, they shake
Backs arch, and hips quake
How much will it take
Til we crash on this lake

The tide crashes hard
Breasts heave in delight
Lips burn and inflame
Our heaven in sight

The throb from within
Slides deeper even still
With one incredible shudder
The flower drinks its fill

Tremors and tears they flow
Awash in afterglow
Once more, my love, we go
An ecstasy we only know.

Woeful, weary and weather worn

Fatigue breeds fantasy,
And insanity follows fast.
Keep it at bay and keep your head,
At least for another day.
It's now high-water season.
The pace will kill you quick.
Fight the flow and you'll fail.
My excuses hold no reason.
The sequence is complete.
It's time to cut the cord.
Reveal yourself. Embrace.
Shed the skin. Revive.
Confront today. Strive.
Conquer tomorrow. Thrive.
No more lies. Escape.
No more cries. No more cries.

The Dread Army of the Black Crescent Knights

Hell doesn't wait when great plans die hard.
Heady monsters never relinquish.
Valor and might don't trump the dark card.
The army's fire doesn't extinguish.

"Legends of Lost Time: Tower of Eternity" Opening

Existence is fleeting when time stands still. Without a point of reference by which to gauge a new beginning or fateful end, life escapes almost unnoticed.

The words enscribed in stone above the grand arch of the Tower of Eternity had long been lost on those who read them. It had been five years since William Smythe first encountered these cryptic phrases, and only today did he finally understand their true meaning. His discovery, he realized, would drastically alter the course of history -- most notably his own.
