The Bride of Midnight
The Bride of Midnight She wore a dress of faded lace, With sorrow written on her face. And every night beside the sea, She waited where her love would be.

October,
October has a leaf-strewn floor, and golden light beyond its door. Step through the gold; let branches sway and shake their summer clothes away.

THE MAGIC KETTLE FROM THE CAR BOOT

Vita In Discrimine
Today, I sipped my coffee Under orange leaf hues Listening to the endless rustling Of nature’s phoenix fire *** Why must decay reign For us to acknowledge The beauty held within A leaf so mundane? *** Foliage so full of fire Underscored by snap and crackle Assembled bodies Warmed by flame and wool *** A constant, latent chill Demands a libation A cider, a bourbon A paired stew, preferred in a cauldron *** Twirl amongst the skeletons Let shivered spines Be eternal reminders That thou art mortals *** So let us come honor This hallowed month Which, if we’re quite honest Wears the crown, in triumph

Who?
Who stood by you in your moment of crisis? *** Who was there when the tears couldn’t stop flowing? *** Who was there with gifts?

The Showdown at the Old Saloon
The Showdown at the Old Saloon Two cowboys drank in an old saloon bar, One had travelled from lands afar. The whiskey flowed as the night grew late, But neither man knew his coming fate.

The Day the World Ceased to Be
The Day the World Ceased to Be It started as a normal day, People merrily on their way. They didn’t know by half-past three, There’d be no one left alive, you see.
