Jack of all trades but master of none; flights of fancy from the world of Jesse Young. China, Skepticism, Atheism, Ethics, Geek, Philology, Bizzare, Trivia, Cataloging, Epistemophilia. Dipping my toes in everything.

MY POEMS #2 - 'Terror Tales'
Terror Tales
By Jesse Young (2010)
In lore that bore,
Upon its breast,
Black-winged creatures,
Atop skeletal nest,
Fixation grew,
As to ensue,
A deepening loss.
As thoughts withdrew,
Far, the influence, reality's sway.
A mind unhinged.
Until, words tortured, lead the way.
Sanity soon impinged.
Screamed was madness from the pages.
Byzantine labyrinths evoked,
Terrors yet unknown to these ages,
Cyclopean ruins bespoke.
And above - sat their eyes,
Eagerly to gleam,
Framed in twisted skies,
On the one below,
Bound so to dream,
Of black-winged creatures,
Atop a skeletal world.
