Once Upon a Strange Occurrence

Vestaisiax:

Once upon a strange occurrence…

A token for the esteem of ditch-diggers
They have gained many a space explorer's trust

No one sees the mad skeletons
Scratching on the asylum walls

Dungeons of Planet Sinaveve

Parsven Undertoad:

What lurks in the now-seemingly tranquil
Dungeons of Planet Sinaveve
Could it be beastly knights?

Ready to cast a rusty blade at invisible opponents
Could it be the chop-block man?
Ready to lop off the noggins of unfaithful servants

Are the star-crossed lovers going to save each other from disparate peril?
Not down here, no
There is a place for them to stretch out

Way out
Maybe as far out as they can go

And the human-spike tomb is a good way
To catch up on some much needed rest

The Duke of Planet Sinaveve comes down the dungeon steps
What does he think of all this madness?
He revels in the sight

The Duke of Planet Sinaveve:

More to it all,
More to it all!

Shall We Dwell?

Zebba Whitsen:

I think of yesteryear
And wander through a good dream's voice to hear

Lovely thoughts of the well
Where our cherished waters dwell

Can you not feel my love for you, my dear?
Are you thinking, as am I, of yesteryear?

Shall we put on our fancy dress and gaudy apparel?
Shall we dance at the ball where royalty waits in peril?

Shall we dwell in a thing of haunting beauty?
Where we can see each other by the light of a moonbeam

What do you intend to do with the remaining hours of the evening?
Shall we dwell in the forbidden land where the teasing breeze turns freezing?

Ephemeral Splinter

The StarFlower:

The residual influence
Of a Greek Tragedy's affluence

Light Years from Now

Lollygag Brutus:

Just to be me
And to stand again
By the clear blue sea

Seizing the day
In a sea of knowledge
A place where carefree lambs go to frolic

Pronounced

The StarFlower:

I have quoted in the past
A memory of glass
That fogs when the breath of ages

Increases voluminous wavelengths to inspire new youth
Let me calmly expose sharp talons used to grip a false body
We have crushed a head not even worth dropping

Silhouettes of Former Men

Vestaisiax:

Beside a hill of shattered ornaments
Extraneous limbs feign a weak attempt
Infinite worlds collapse in sheer black

I am here standing in front of stage-prop pearls
To exhibit the show
At long last

Aureole

Zebba Whitsen:

Laid a wreath for my soul to keep
It rests in the wither of Bitter Winter
It wouldn't keep, would not keep
Sincerity carefully set to recede

Not even the freshest appearance
Of our precious spirits
Lasts long enough to keep

No wreath could contain
The depths of my
Broken-down composure

When I have vanished
Bending to the night's abandonment
Frigid grounds will keep
But what when sincerity carelessly recedes?

Eyes like December Glass

Biibyl Midribel:

A blackbird has a perch on a cauldron
Eyes like December glass
Sensational spirits sip fine wine in a chalice of silver

Planet Sinaveve holds the dreams of unwanted night chills
Rustling chains
Jack-in-the-rack

What new means of imprisonment will they use against themselves?
By all means
New incantations are the way sensational spirits call forth their lost loves

Planet Sinaveve Lament

Biibyl Midribel:

O Planet Sinaveve!
How could I think that living in you
Would be like living in a dream within a dream?

I throw down my troubadour's dance
And in anguish take up
My knight's lance

Dandelion-lady of the Lake

Zebba Whitsen:

If your eyes
Do not shine
W/some things you know

You may not
Make them glow
It is your lovin' I just don't know

Lollygag Brutus:

Where are you going?
I can see your tired feet
Walking up and down Camelot's old village street

Zebba Whitsen:

On the mountain top it is snowing
I would like to meet
Your love that makes men shiver when you are sweet

Whisper Your Name

Zebba Whitsen:

Languidly moving from side to side
I see where my fellow mind
Does take its place in the moon to abide

You made a change
Once you were my main
Squeeze, but you won't
Let me even hold your hand anymore

You were once my glittering comfort
My shade in the sun
My shelter in the rain

Now you will not even let me
Whisper your name

At the creek-bed
Where I cannot raise my head
To see you

Tell me, is this the last I have seen of you?
I hear what you say,
But it does not seem to be true

Because I know
That you are going to stick around
Deep down inside

And I will still
Whisper like a clown
When you've cried

The Brook

Zebba Whitsen:

You have reached the brook
The lonely brook
At your reflection, you took a look

You came out looking like no one cared
You turned into a bird without feathers
You do not have it all together

Your land of supple lovin' seems to be bare

Why will I not let you?
You know I will not forget you
Why will I not let you move on?
You've lost lovin' for me and it just seems wrong

But you
You won't let us go
You're a pinching for an inch on love
And itching for a living

Sally Astronomicle:

I may be drained
Still I have love for you the same

Zebba Whitsen:

All you wanted was love
Now the day is turning gray
And all you wanted is slowly going away

Whatever Time May Bring

Zebba Whitsen:

You know it well by now, my friend
We can go through this again

All over the place
All over every place
I see you rockin' away

It's time to let love chase you down
And bring many hearts around

It is time you know
Whatever time may bring
Hold me close so our hearts can sing

Together
Yes, together
Together, whatever
Time may bring

You know I will love you
And it is in you being with me
That I believe in
