When the Devil Extends

Field Trip
I apologize for not writing much in the past month. I'm taking a team of Marines into Afghanistan soon, and I'll be gone for several months at the least. I can't say where exactly, but I've been led to believe that we may have some internet access there. To that end, I'll leave my accounts active in...

Another Energy (Repost)
Feeling like I feel this day I’ve never known how to live this way My reducing cell remains undefined Blurring my twisted sense of time There’s something else here, like walls unseen That cause the air to tremble between With this something else, I’m heard no more But this boy who cried wolf never...

Talent:Poison (Repost)
A prick of a thorn festered and grew And became everything that I thought I knew But when I turned and tried to walk away I became this thing that I am today Twisted and bitter, blistered and burnt I never imagined this kind of hurt So now you see what I was meant to be But that doesn't change the...
