Faith in Nights

                                           But the darkness pulls in everything
                                           shapes and fires, animals and myself
                                           How easily it gathers them
                                           Powers and people

                                           And it is possible a great energy
                                           is moving near me

                                           I have faith in nights

Rainer Maria Rilke

Just Two Punks

                     We're just two punks Frank. God kissed us on the brow that night.

Blame it On Cain

                                     I think i've lived a little too long
                                     on the outskirts of town
                                     I think i'm going insane
                                     from talking to myself for so long
                                     Oh but i've never been accused
                                     When they step on your face
                                     you wear that good look grin

I am a Cage

Hell is Empty

Loner and Serf

      Those shuffling cards sound like the frenzied splashing of a pirhana swarm moving near the top of the water closing in on a wounded doomed creature.

Not Yet Dead

                                   We're already dead

                                   But not yet in the ground

                                   C'mon shake my helping hand -

                                   I'll show you around

Without Despair
