And I travel across the land,
darkness belies my truth not found,
it hangs taughtly across my brow,
and streches twinly down that trail
till it reaches my desperatly clenched hands

this said darkness is not of shadow make..
it is not the product, but the creator..
it's creation is my own desperation..
in this escapade, my exodus,
I shall find naught
yet the search remains the same..

Where is this object I search for..
of course something lost..
something missing...
again, you ask what could it be?
ah, there is the twist..

I know not how to discribe it,
for intangible it is..
to use my poor words would be as explaining
the taste of the summer air to a nordic traveler
I cannot explain what it is...only what it begets..

It is the master...
of love.. another seemingly endless quest..
of pain.. the sensation the seems to be the seeler
of magick.. the extinct will of the willful
of the soul.. which many seem to have lost..
this creator created the all those Gods the walk the planes...
and the demons their antithesis..

This is the first I thought of this..
Nonlinearly, truly chaotic..
What was I traveling...
to find such a thing?
I listened to the fire, and the water, stone, and wind...of forest, and desert, swamp, mountain, and tundra..
I travel for just a chance to hear it..

All I had to do is stop..
and listen..to myself..
and others..
to find this hidden, not lost sound
.....of the Human spirit

For a fateful night of passion, since my heart need one last vent, I believe I am willing to pay that black widows rent...

The highs and lows almost knocked me off my chair. Wild ride, E!!! It could be the vitalit of this mortal existance resonating thru the tectonic plates of nature's shifting beauty. Where'd that come from? I'm clean right now! Nicely said, E!

Enjoyed the read,
