Sermon

I look down upon you, your shining faces rapt with emotion as I speak the Truth. You wayward paths have all crossed over and about one another to bring you here today. Here to bear witness to the glorious revelation of my lord, my Saviour's grace.
I see people good and bad as I sweep my gaze across you. Truth and lie. Love and...

Shadows Have Weight
AC

Shadows have weight. They seem without substance, ephemeral, but the absence of light has a form, heft and solidity that the eye can't perceive.

Light settles on your shoulders like a gossamer cloud, burning away the cares that seek to bog you down. Shadow wraps around you like a death shroud, binding your arms to your side and clogging your throat...

Fucking Emo!
AC

Darkness is liquid, dripping through the cracks in reality and puddling in the recesses of mortal thought. We push forward light, crying out a false face bright with hope and optimism. Pools of radiance dot the landscape of the collective consciousness, pushing back the gloom, but our gathered apathy is not to be denied, so the light is slowly choked and snuffed....

There I sat, watching the turning of the world. The change from innocence to guilt, clean to sullied.
I sat and watched ants flee in the distance, seeking to escape the unavoidable.
I sat and counted the minutes, back to front, reversing time to a new big bang. The beginning at the end.
I sat and listened as a steel throat screamed the warning...

"Gonzo"
by: AC

Burn bright, like a star flashing super nova, it's light too intense to see until years after it's gone.

Burn long, refusing the dousing waters of mediocrity.

Burn hot, igniting everything you pass. Fuck the alarms! Smoke strengthens the lungs!

Burn fierce and wild, jumping the borders of your own path.

Burn hard. Burn strong. Burn weird. You are your own fuel....

Cattle Of The Gods
By: AC

The sun is all I see.

A tiny spot of sunlight that crawls across the earthen walls and floor of my cell. A tiny spot of light shining in through a tiny hole in the otherwise solid wooden ceiling.

The sun is all I see.

I sit here, tugging at the chain that runs from my ankle to a...

Blank
By: AC

Stare into the Blank and you can see eternity staring back at you, laughing. The Blank is a fickle and abusive lover. She begs you to fill her, to give her form, all the time mocking you. Questioning your abilities. Your worth. When you look upon the Blank you simultaneously see unending possibilities and numberless dead ends. You can not conquer the...

Untitled

You walk through the day as a breeze, disturbing not a hair on those you pass. To those who move about you you are a shadow, silent as a whisper; but to me you are a hurricane, a supernova, a bright, shining light that screams to my senses. As you pass me I inhale your scent, storing it for later rumination. When I brush...

Dust
by: AC

I walk now across the cracked and blasted plains of our war-torn cradle; striding ankle deep through the charred and shattered remains of our species' beginnings. The evidence of our aborted evolution is all around me, an ocean of sand and smoking failure. I pick up a rock and dust off the ashes of a hundred million of my ancestors. This rock...
