  • Purgèd Youthful Earth

    She was nocturnal, feminine;She came only at night. I cut my fingers off.¹It was upon confession that the joy left us, And instead she became the night woman. Only at nightLoving at night,And cooling the day. Chilled the day, summer passed in frigid bipolarity, My heart burned out to compensate.And in the cool cold winter,She […]

  • Fantasy (v2!)

    There’s a place you’ve always dreamed of,    where your heart’s always at ease, Ring your fingers, crown your forehead,        ‘cause in here you’re royalty, Turn around, you’ll see your castle gaze         from spires that reach past the trees, Beyond a rainbow grew around it,                 open up the skies and your mind will […]

    Please not that due to the extremely long lines and the use of caesura, if you’re on mobile it would be best to rotate sideways. I There’s a place you’ve always dreamed of     where the heart’s always at ease, Ring your fingers, crown your forehead        cause, in here you’re royalty, Turn around, you’ll see your […]

  • Raze

    The Demo Tapes Part 1 – Raze Portfolio Edition When she had finished speaking, she stared at me. I looked at her rather intensely. She glared at me openly. Perhaps she lacked a sense of etiquette, or perhaps the intensity came from an underlying edge—perhaps more than an edge—of…something. “And as a result,” I continued, […]

  • Fathom’s Qart

    We’re nearly done, ladies and gentlemen. Just have to calm the animal spirit, and we can continue this journey. I would like to thank Dr. Nasser Hussain for encouraging me to return to this piece and fix the verse and meter. Au.3.2018 (Ma.20.2019) I’ll be a while Because I need to see the sun set […]

  • Wraith Hail (Artifact Edition)

    The Demo Tapes Part 2 – Wraith Hail. Artifact Edition To anyone who has read one of the two previous uploads of “Wraith Hail,” please note that this version of the story is quite different. Due to WordPress’s frustratingly limited formatting options, I should inform you of one thing: the italicized numbers are markers for […]

  • Writ April 14

    Writ April 14, Some time after Midnight “Maybe there’s a place for me in this, Maybe there’s a life I should not miss,” I wash across these days hit one by one but all together Was said, “Even if all my bones are broken, I will drag myself back from the edge…” Thought it was […]

  • Sing me a song; so that I may Dance!

    Sing me a siren song, draw me — to the rocks. Sing me your siren song, You know — I’ll cling fast. Sing me a pretty song, I love you, your voice. Sing me a lovely song, You know I am yours. Sing me oh sing me oh singing me love Sing me oh sing […]

  • The Last of the First Act

    P.S.: This was written around a month ago, and is thus no longer reality, but fiction. “My life ended And I missed it.” – dan… The cause of my affliction Can never be resolved A case for self infliction Whose sin can’t be dissolved Your body’s empty now, As I hold you—now gone I miss […]

  • “Daaaan”’s Epic list of Albums

    These are my favourite albums, off the top of my head. I listen to a small list of great bands and that’s it. Obviously, this list was made for a girl. Best Crucible (Halford) [a favourite] Falling Up (Falling Up) Youthanasia (Megadeth) [thinking of you] Screaming for Vengeance (Judas Priest) Super Collider (Megadeth) [The haters […]

  • The First of Many

    After my previous “avant-garde” poetic endeavour, I figured I’d share another one. This is, of course, dedicated to the person I wrote it for. *** “I feel it only necessary to preface a work such as this with a quote.” – [Name Removed] [Waves] [Close our eyes and count slow,] (Falling Up) (Falling Up) [In […]

  • What were Judas Priest’s “Best Years”?

    I’m kind of in a bad way right now, and it’s exam season. Despite this, I’m going to try to keep the ball rolling. Here’s a short piece on the different eras of one of my favourite bands, Judas Priest. I think Judas Priest’s biggest time in the spotlight (definitely their biggest time for sales) […]

  • Hours

    Hours

    You can tell from the first two seconds of Hours that it isn’t going to be like any other rock album. Some songs don’t even have guitars in them, but still manage to sound like rock, for example my favourite track Aeva and the Waving World which inspired a short story of mine.
