Tidal Whirlpool
Into the darkness I drove the line. With sudden persistence I stuck their spirits. Questions arose about my faith. Under the shadows the powers of the air quake. Through blended fields I struck their souls. Yoking my aura deep into the earth. Waking the mountain it never crumbled. Ascending the moon, we summit the sky. Zero percent of my trust was lost. Accepting the...

Empires Dream
Dream, dreams of empire in realms vision scapes an infinite fire… Standing, casting away all thoughts onto the shores of a world afar As the Red Sea’s meet in between the emerald seams of a violent life, on a lazy horizon A distant future’s weight building in the inner walls of my sleep as conversations conspire They fade in a week...

The Rise and Fall of Empires
An empire rises, When the trees are in their prime, Until axes can be heard ringing all the time, And the waters start to rise above the plimsoll line An empire dies, When the old men of the forest, Are cut down with the rest, Leaving the sun to do the rest. When the sun has done its job, And the water level...

Beyond
my destiny stems far and beyond born with the spiritual no need for a magic wand within, ancient wisdom corresponds people unintentionally fear the black swan I’m a freedom fighter better than Flynn from the movie Tron the force in me is strong, as I skywalk with Han ideas constantly, sprouting like spawns in my dreams I own a fast-pitch ball golden glove...

Empires
So much for the thrill of rule, of control, I've had my fill, though I've burdened no throne. Tis a small, poisoned mind temptation stole, and loaned cursed gold no greed could condone. Natural to men - are we not born in fear? - to see our brothers as foes at our throats. Each offer of help a well-disguised sneer. Each...

Empires Slowly Fall
The sun will shine and Lovers will dine and It don't really matter if You don't know why Clouds up in the sky Will keep on floating by Even if you ease your mind So, give it a try The ants will still crawl Empires slowly fall While we're smiling here Year after year...

From Empires To Pawns
It might be cliche but we must right all our wrongs. Bringing downfall to the susceptible ones. I know I am not. One to preach. But truth and dignity, from which I Believe. Come old faithful one. Enlighten by my Sun. Shaping the fortunes for worlds to come. Denying all grief. For I am the beholder of Sum. Stray away from paths, less likely to...

Empires
Empires. Over the massive easterly ridge I see thousands of soldiers, in splendid golden helmets, marching down the slope pushing shadows, the residue of night, in front of them. There is a momentary lull as a wayward cloud blocks the sun, but the attack resumes and soon the army of the new empire vanquish the whole valley; except...

In the Wake of Empires
I anticipate the marching campaigns of your fingertips, the mapping of vexed trails to be conquered those relentless, lawless, crusades over every sensitive summit. You've built empires over my every nerve and toppled each with gratifying urgency. Ah! My Lover, my one man Dynasty the way you command my passion and possess the whole of my flesh in the palm of your hand is a...

Empires of War
Empires rise, Legions fall. Men and women live through it all. Empires fall, Legions cross the sea. Families with men they never again will see. Empires no more, Legions disappear. War is done and people no longer live in fear....
