1st: Plums

Beyond the two-sided glasses
is a world full of color,
more than the duality
of the sky and the blood.
If the mix and mingle
and they blend with each other,
you could remove your eyes
and see the plums.

2nd: An Invention of Critics

I think I always figured I was happy
til I heard otherwise
and believed it instantly.
T'was told to me
so eloquently,
that I fell madly in love
with unhappiness.

3rd: Absinthe (lucid)

There's a sadness that inspires
my highest
and boldest imagination;
where drinks of a strict flavor
decorate
the person I become.

4th: Silent Film

All movement and no mouth...
quiet communication,
of everything you need to know
about this story.
The action sans the action...
worth concentration,
the words underneath the silence
hold the glory.
----

5th: Contemplative Refuge

I only get naked
behind the locked doors
of a locked home,
where only I
can see It.
----

6th: Benediction

From the blood of a captain
lies the truest religion,
so the vampires who love him
cause his deepest wounds.
