The sea is beauty in cruelty,Cruelty in beauty.It is constant and ever-changing,Linear and paradoxical.The sea both gives and takes,Both sailors fortunes and their doom.The sea is indifferent to all,And yet a caring mistress.The sea is a beauty unto itself,Both calm and turbulent.It is everything at once,And it is my only love. – Arsh

Whispering voices surround me,The fence has been broken for days.The lamp posts flicker and burn out,Plunging the street into darkness.Eyes that have been raised in the light,Seek into darkness for comfort,And the hands brought up in the dark,Shy away from the eyes that blind. – Arsh

What twisted fantasy might this be?Might you be too blind to see?I simply ought to throw you up a tree!How dare you insult my precious ebony!An idiot, is what I don thee!One cannot see,Without the pale hues of ebony.One cannot truly be,Without my dear black, can ye?No Yin without Yang, my fellow, see!Without this one…

It stings. Frustrated tears pool at my eyes, Unable to do anything else.It simmers.Darkened eyes look away asYet another bribe takes place right under the noses of thoseWho were once trusted to protect us.It burns.Knuckles are bleeding,Pummeling the punching bag as thoughIt would chase all problems away.It boils over.Knives stick out of thoseWho once dared…
