Where Nightmares Reside

I reblog art, quotes, writing, nature pictures, music, and silly things. I post my own writing and drawings as well. As a result, this blog is a mixed bag of reblogs and original content. Enjoy. :)

Time-Capsuled Passions

The clock tolls the time again
To fold infinitesimal
All the things that made you human
Let us pack them neatly
Away into this impregnable cage
We’ll both place deep down
Into freshly toiled earth

Isn’t it amazing?
How they find their way back here:
The matter of all things dead
And I would not mind finding our way back too
Digging up time-capsuled passions
And when I do-
If I do-
Perhaps I’ll find them a deteriorated mess
And I guess that would be okay

Measure

They say this is the measure of a good man
When a bad one ambles free
The molassic malaise that pours in
When mistakes reach expiration
The meander-ing mind slug who feeds until it kills
Again and again
You’ll feel worth drowning in your heart
You”ll hear sanity gasping for air
You’ll know err in your bones
And when you’re clasping at your last string of breaths
Curiously collapsing under the weight of your own
All thought roads will converge
And you will wonder
What good is measure for-
When I cannot make right?

Dance with Flames

Malignancies steal refuge
    Within the weak walls of mine
        An abode built not to stand

I’d rather see it burn
    Than to keep dwelling sickly
        Under roofs verged on collapse

And yet here I lie
    Twiddling matchsticks betwixt digits
        Too affright to dance with flames
