by SamaelApollos

"Waiting For Rain #1"

by SamaelApollos

Planning for rain that may never appear A few scattered dark clouds are drawing near A distant rumble heard on top the ridge Thirsty culvert awaits under the bridge The wind begins to tease with its breathe damp What will the c...

"Stuck"

by SamaelApollos

Stuck, overtly conditioned to be what? Some sort of hero all for naught. You'd get no credit anyway, for shame. Is it the energy you spend on thought, all for pot? Hot to trot like some child who got their way, all the same. Wage war w...

"John"

by SamaelApollos

Your name was left in riddles at the scene Was the eight-story drop fast and serene? Clean cut, fresh threads, a few dollars to burn Not your first rodeo, you'll never learn. In and out over the past several years Banned by a state, brough...

"Gorgeous Disaster"

by SamaelApollos

Gorgeous disaster, all fun and games. On the outside stoic while your mind melts in flames. One doesn't willingly walk into peril, yet you find it by your creation and treat others like they're feral. Force that smile, put on a brave face.....

"Trash Heap"

"How to Love the Anxious"

"Modern Helen"

by SamaelApollos

She’s a chimera, a “Helen of Troy”, Yet not worth a battle; much less a war. Chooses perdition with a well-aged boy Who’s haughty vernacular masks the bore. Constant convalescence and puerile pleas, Dear boy married her to offs...
