With tainted lips he drew me in
he plucked my hands
he kissed it softly
in a soft song
he whispered to me
The way I see you, my darling
it makes the stars gleam brighter,
but they only reminisce
Myths and legends are alive and well all around us.
Apollo lives
in the steady hands of a medical surgeon
In the voice of the newest, hottest star
The Elven Realm
I was walking through the meadow,
swirling through the wheat, when suddenly
I came upon a figure,
Sweltering among the summer’s heat.
He said to me, “Do not step farther,
Windows to the otherwhere
Where the folk are fey and fair
Oh, you mortals all beware,
Beware the fair-folk’s call
Beauties bright around you blaze
Hair as black as nightDarker than fair fae stepping lightDancing dancing through forest wildLight as a Lynx and innocent as a childNow hear the wolfs callAnd watch the moons progress stall
Stay away; do not go in.
Cold cruel eyes beckon you to
Dance in darkness drenched in sin.
Though they promise rewards within—
Food and drink and love anew—
Green and red and blue eyes wild,
Darkness and light and spinning breezes,
The laughter of a fairy child,
And the words of the toy the child squeezes.
The fae dance and twirl among the trees,
Hark!
Do you perceive
filled to the brim with joy
attentive to the music of the fey?
The way the trees whisper amongst each other,
the way the wind whistles in harmony,
the crickets titter in tune,
Somewhere in the land of Gray
There was a girl, whose name was Kay
Kay was smart, Kay was beautiful
Most of all, Kay was truthful
A dreamer in the best of ways
In her head spent most her days
