Conceived in Eden
Conceived in EDEN Samaiel and Lilith, exploring the forests and their bodies… The power of sex magick burning for the eternal source… This, is where freedom was literally born…. Raven BLACK 🖤🥀
Freedom
And we dance, with freedom in our hair, centuries of exile manifest strength within these bones. We are one, this our sisters coven, born of blood and the pain of intolerance. We are might, we are Strength, we are the circle of The Cone of Power. We are women frolicking in the joy of ourselves,Continue reading “Freedom”
Haunted
Haunted The air before Spring has a certain nip. Dark and unexpected as you wait for the coming warmth. Catacombs and Rainbows fall with certain death while cemeteries, centuries old come to life doing the Charleston while a ragged moon seems to swoon kissing barren tree branches underneath already tired clouds, passing along in theContinue reading “Haunted”

☠️ ETERNAL LOVE and BONES ☠️
“I where my heart on my sleeve, trusting, loving, desiring that more than special connection. The fumes rise from under my blood red stained scrubs. The overwhelming smell of toxic death fills by vacant lungs. Gasoline realization burns my eyes, I stand helpless and blind to the worldand all of it’s confusion. My body stiff,Continue reading “☠️ ETERNAL LOVE and BONES ☠️”

Girl Next-door(Caroline’s Song)
There’s a girl and she lived down the street all alone. No one remembered her smile- She always just laughed “I’m all by myself” but her eyes gave herself away. The pink summer sky started to rain and the radio started to play. Memories came like celluloid dreams. The ending, always the same. So manyContinue reading “Girl Next-door(Caroline’s Song)”
L’enfant Artiste
Colour by numbers is a trick of open spectrum light. The skin, the fading hair, the lost moments reflecting and capturing vibrant active imaginations of the youth. We marveled at the subtle hues, and feathered brush strokes, breathing life understanding death.. working coloured oils into two dimensional canvases. Our focus and concentration, bordering on brilliance,Continue reading “L’enfant Artiste”
Hey Jack, Where You At?
Hey Jack, Where You At? Jack? Oh Jack… His voice was smooth with heavy texture. He talked like he was lost yet knew all ’bout the world. His manner loose, noose held back with refrain, a melody of velvet sandpaper fell like rain from his lips. Shaking, making, the earth is still quaking to theContinue reading “Hey Jack, Where You At?”

Enchantress (undead)
Silver silence cascades through winter trees of elm and birch. Naked fingered branches stretch and yawn while standing erect in military grace. Softly, elegantly, she glides through the night. Dead, undead she remembers the love and pain captured in the human heart. The desire, the fire, the soft caress of a velvet touch. Centuries, memoriesContinue reading “Enchantress (undead)”
