Run Silent, Run Deep

The convoy lights are dead aheadThe merchantmen lay in their bedThe thump of diesels hammers downIn the oily sea-the killing groundHis knuckles white his eyes alightHe slams the hatch on the deadly nightA cunning fox in the chickens lairA hound of hell and the devil don’t care chorus:Running silent,running deep,we are your final prayerWarriors in […]

Purgatory

Thinking of an age old dream,Places I have never seen.Fantasies lived times before,I split my brain, melt through the floor.

Memories rising from the past,The future shadows overcast.Something’s clutching at my head,Through […]

Revelations

“O God of Earth and Altar,Bow down and hear our cry,Our earthly rulers falter,Our people drift and die,The walls of gold entomb us,The swords of scorn divide,Take not thy thunder from us,But take away our pride.” Just a babe in a black abyss,No reason for a place like this.The walls are cold and souls cry […]
