Tear Garden

Our lady on the balcony in black and red. The band plays stronger. Spinning back we tread on broken glass. Our heels dig harder. I circle round inside your belt.

Romulus And Venus

Everything you gave me lies within a trunk, within a drawer. I burned one hundred photographs or more. I fled across the ocean wioth another face, another name.

Room With A View

The hunter lines his trophies up across his wall, beneath his bed...A tiger's head, a snakeskin rug, slugs in a jug, the bugs make halos 'round his phone. He'd call his friends to come around - they'd all get stoned when he pulled old Medusa moaning from a sack. She poses then she cracks their mirror shades. It's just her way. He let's her play a while then throws her back, then they all go fishing in the reservoir....

Sheila Liked The Rodeo

Sheila liked the rodeo. She'd take a ringside seat. She'd murmur doo-dee-doo-dee-doo. She'd eat. Then one day wild Eliza bolted and knocked her off her seat.

Ophelia

Crawling through the minefield. We never saw the signs. The lightning flashes thunder claps. Is it just our dream, Ophelia?. . Saw the dark clouds rolling.

Perforated Man

This is our dear lord at heaven's gate. See the wings upon his ankles. Here's the chariot. The angels five long years but worth the wait. Further down you have the serpent.

Phoenix

Hit "rewind". You sit surrounded by a frame, your laugh infectious.. Hair in flames, your star was lonely but it lives.. And we don't have the time for tears. A step beyond..

New Eden

My splintered stoned Medusa Lies in places by the mirror.. Snakes alive, but I die laughing on a chair.. I'm juggling apples, I feel the grass grow 'round my feet..

Oo Ee Oo

Last Post

I'd like to think of angels. We discussed a happy end. A place with lemon slices. On a shore with violins. Five star waiters. Crates of kill cow wine on a night of steaming sin.

Malice Through The Looking Glass

Snowblind.. I can't find my way back because my tracks move in spirals to me.. Now I'm up to my knees and it's freezing.. I'm sinking. I'm thinkin of you and you wave as you fade away, float away....

My Thorny Thorny Crown

A trip to the insanium in chains. They ripped his cranium. Sank wires in his brains. He stayed the same too old to change. He watched the world fall down on tuesdays.

Judgement Hour

I've got my eyes fixed on your picture. This finger's pressing you. Would you shut up for a moment. I need to see the future. Seems it's looking dim. I try to shake you off but still you cling.

Lament

Merciful angel. You always been there. When it all got to painful. I was mad with despair. . Lying down in the ruins. Tied with wires to this chair. You just point to new star.

In Search Of My Rose

I found you crying outside on the wall of Devil's Well.. A hangman's knot around your feet; and praying for the spell to be shattered.. May I be the one to rip the shackles clean away; and lead you to a place where loneliness is tackled with a kiss?.

Isis Veiled

They're closing in, I switched the pictures. Painted all the walls. I hung the medals, hid the magazines. As caped crusaders crawled down freedom street.

Empathy With The Devil

My flavour is the stuff of locusts. Hot chili firebrand. Spurting volcano teeth. Bleeding skies, sulphur mines. The foul breath of Satan's favourite gutter worm.

Hopeful

What if the demons are dying. But fighting as they fade. What if this last big battle. is a just shallow play. What waits on the other side. When the fear has gone away.

Hyperform

Snakebite spitting spiders eyes. They swallowed up the night. Cried "meltdown zero marsh of lava". Had supersonic sight. And barriers of you and me piled 1500 high.

Déjà Vu

It was a cold November evening and I should have worn a coat. I shivered... waiting for the ferry boat to carry me to you...Could see you dancing in the harbour lights; your hair an orange flame. You'd turn away, swing on a crane. Always quite the same....
