There lies a portal deep beneath
the silent sands of time,
an entrance to life's journeys
with some reason, little rhyme.
It reappears and disappears,
it waxes and it wanes.
It contemplates and correlates
the common and insane.

Some seconds and some centuries
may pass while you await,
the openings and closings
of this celestial gate.
You'll never know when it may show
for them or you and me,
Euclidean equations of life's
passage--don't you see?

Don't hesitate, don't ruminate
walk confidently through
engaging in the mysteries
created just for you.



BY,
Diana Avery 1/2015

She calls to me in my dreams
Lures me outside at night
Hiding amongst the shadows
Keeping out of sight

The howling winds carry
Her whispers through the air
I hear her words
I know she's out there

The dark enchantress beckons
Through the branches of the trees
I feel myself being pulled in
By the evening's breeze

But why won't she show herself
What does she have to hide
She doesn't come to me
She summons me outside

There must be some reason
Why she comes to my place
But tonight is the night
We meet face to face

It's time to find out
What she wants with me
It's time to discover
What she doesn't want me to see

So I venture off into
The woods behind my house
Determined to end
This game of cat and mouse

Deeper I searched
Observing each shadow
One of them had to be her
But how would I know

She's got to be nearby
I don't have any doubt
There's nothing more I could do
So I called out

Please show yourself
This is going to far
Why are you hiding
Show me who you are

The shadows converged
And started to swirl
Manifesting into
A gorgeous girl

I couldn't believe what I was seeing
This has to be one of my dreams
But I was wide awake
As crazy as it seems

You're so beautiful I said
I thought you would be a horror
Tell me why you haven't
Shown yourself before

She smiled at me
And took a deep breath
I belong to the shadows
I am born from death

Your moon is my sun
Your dreams are my reality
We could only be together
Through your fatality

But you say you see my beauty
And I see yours as well
I couldn't ask you to submit
To the toll of death's bell

Never have I seen more kindness
In one person's heart
You remain compassionate
In a world that's falling apart

Every time I see you
I shed a tear
I want you in my world
But you're needed here

I couldn't believe it
As I looked into her eyes
But her words were true
She didn't tell any lies

But you know I live
Here on my own
Every single night
I sleep alone

I'm willing to forfeit
This existence I call life
I'd end it now
With the injection of a knife

I try to be kind
But the world is my enemy
I give all I've got
And it gives me misery

She smiled and said
That kindness brought me to you
As much as I want you
Your time isn't through

I promise you this
There will come a day
When we will be together
And we will get away

Until that day comes
Remain who you are
Although we're worlds apart
I'll never be too far

Her black wings engulfed me
Encasing me tight
She kissed my lips then whispered
My sweet love, good night

As I woke up to the dawn
In my hand was a dark feather
A symbol of her promise
That we will one day be together

The Ice Queen

By JimEee

The attack of the icicles were like hanging
pointed swords upon the ceiling of the Ice Queen's palace.

Her henchmen of the north awaited to launch their terror!

Hovering there ... awaiting to grasp
falling spears of ice

Throwing these javelins at the innocence lambs of awaiting summer.

Tis a deception to think therein the crystals of icicles, lies in warmth & compassion!

Cold to the touch and treacherous to the soul!
Beware their ice cold, smooth & polished beauty!

Oh! Woe is he to touch their sharpened points, the darts of Winter’s cold Fury!

Beware the Gods of winter
As they send their frigid cold to freeze the land!

Tis better to bundle up in warm blankets
and drink grogs of hot toddy

Then to do battle with the henchmen of the Ice Queen of the North!

Charlton Heston
He has been in some great movies
Planet of the Apes
Oh my God!
I'm back!
I'm home
All the time it was...
We've finally really did it
You maniacs!
You blew it up!
Damn you!
Damn you all to hell!
The Ten Commandments
Who is on the Lord's side
Let him come to me
Blasphemers, Idolaters
For this you shall drink bitter waters!
God has set before you this day his laws of life and good
And death and evil
Those who will not live by the law
Shall die by the law!
Solent Green
They're making our food out of people
Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for food
You've got to tell them, you've got to tell them
You tell everybody
Listen to me Hatcher
You got to tell them
Solent Green is people!
We've got to stop em!
Stop em!

A long, long time ago, it was in the days of old
When women were dainty and knights were bold
Lived a fire breathing demon, or so the legend is told

Round this demon roamed and villages burned to the ground
In desperation the call went forth and riders sent all around
Be it knight or noble, to peasant and all, a hero must be found

Rewards would be great for the one, he that would demon slay
Rich was the King and plenty land, half his kingdom to give away
And best of all, they all agreed, his daughter’s hand on the very day

So many suitors had come to woo and win the Princess’ hand
This creature so beautiful and fair, on her hand to place a band
One after another she’d turned them down, why no-one could understand

One by one, in their shiny armour, came up the knights so bold
Head held high into forest they rode, in their eyes the promise of gold
Fearful screams of battles fierce, not one returned to grow gracefully old

The last to remain, a peasant boy, dressed in rags with hood on head
In he strode with staff in hand, no battle sounds but silence instead
Out strolled the peasant whistling a song and demon flying overhead

In the middle of meadow he calmly stopped with demon by his side
Who was this boy that could tame a demon, but no-one could decide
He had done the deed, tamed the demon, now he claimed his bride

The Princess cursed for she hated men, but now her fate was sealed
Promised she was to this man, her husband to be stood in the field
No change of mind the King allowed no matter how much she appealed

A gasp went up as his face was revealed for in reality the he was a she
The King cursed, the Princess swooned, how could this possibly be
However if you looked closely, delight on the Princess’ face you’d see

The Princess and the girl married and lived in a state of bliss
They were meant for each other, knew with the first kiss
And they were known forever as the Princess and the Miss

Why wiggle my toes
As everyone knows
There’s magic in the air
Why wrinkle my nose
Make my eyes close
Watch me disappear
My skin’s a little wrinkled
I’m small as you can get
My age is not that simple
So you better not forget
And hiding my gold coins
Under rainbows I beget
All my mischief ever done
Make you terribly upset
Let today be full of sunshine
Never mind any regret
'Cause a day you can be Irish
Will be the best one ever yet

in his veins the magic flows through the rivers an through the lakes but do not forsake he s the one with keys to the golden gates he see your truth and knows your lies just one puff blows through your disguise then your wells well soon run dry kings and queens well give there lives and offer the dragon there sweetest pies never fear his horns and bite if your intentions are for peace and love the rain well fall from the heavens above

“Did you come to watch the meteor shower, too?”
She shook her head. “That’s not really what’s happening. I came to watch the stars die.”

I ,
Antonius,
Ruler of the 9 Realms,
And all in it,
Have a Royal Decree...,
Half awake, half asleep,
Tossing and turning in the night,
Reaching for one pillow and another,
Turning from one girl to the next,
I came upon the perfect form,
So firm at first that I,
Antonius,
Ruler of the 9 realms,
And all in it,
almost pushed such insolence away from me,
But just then, yielding,
she became soft,
smooth,
pleasant,
then perfect...,
My arms wrapped around such bliss I fell into a wonderful slumber where all my worries and cares we're wiped away...
So great was my happiness.
Alas,
When I awoke,
Noone was by my side.
Personally I have searched,
But to no avail,
I turn to my loyal subjects...
Where is she?
That one who was so great to hold.
Where did she go?
I had no need of such weakness before but now that I, Antonius,
Ruler of the 9 Realms,
And all in it,
have experienced this feeling I, Antonius,
Ruler of the 9 Realms,
And all in it,
Want, Nay!,
I,
Antonius,
Ruler of the 9 Realms,
And all in it,
Need it!,
She was here!
Now she's gone!
Who was the phantom nymph who stole the heart noone never knew existed?
I,
Antonius,
Ruler of the 9 Realms,
And all in it,
Release this edict,
Find her...,
And bring her back to me.
Whoever completes this task shall receive a thousand gold pieces and authority over a thousand districts.
Such is the word of the king.
