Izanami

IZANAMI I pranced across the hall one day When my father caught my eye Thrusting his blade, deep into a stranger And watching him bleed and die. The stranger's agony scarred me awfully I even heard him wail in sleep And eventually I drifted apart from My father, whose name I only still keep. Today, I stand in my best armour With the same crimson red blade in hand Dawn through dusk, as watch over My beloved wife and child, in command. Ocassionally, I glance at my son Who looks down the moment our eyes meet, And we leave the rest unsaid...

My Heart is in Japan

I sit under a white pine Amidst the pink sakura bloom  And watch them sway and  Dance, to the stunning red sky When a magical lingering aroma  Has me senses captive Of hot ramen and spicy gyoka; Like living a serene visual jutsu  My soul finds its craving and My heart is in Japan

A Broken Seal

Like always, I spearheaded into it and began my first venture with a heavy dose of Darren Shan. The Saga was a long one, and gripping would be an understatement. I was addicted to something for the first time, and it...

GAEA

Gliding arms of modern clocks Passing by, as man marches on. Reaching out in a desperate thirst, that Jewels and power can quench alone. Like a deep fault, they had burrowed into Her Slashing their ways through vines and trees. Feeding on witnesses, and camping nearby And, shamelessly, called it Home. Like a cancer, the thirst grew to lust Until it had to be fought and conquered for; Chasing the crown over a burning Earth Ashes rose, a remembrance of the cost. She had been asleep for far too long,  Until the tremors awoke her from dormancy. The prophesized time has come She decided, and opened her celestic eyes. The gliding arms of clocks now stopped Even Chronos stepped aside in fright! The Earth split in two and from within rose Mother Gaea from slumber, in all her might. Massive mountains rumbled at the touch of Her Arms, and rivers and streams flowed Across her divine breasts. Her hair was gold And silver, and gli...
