Fallen Icarus

This is a photomanipulation I did of some stock photos courtesy of dreamstock and zerothirtythreestock both DeviantArtist as well.

FALLEN ICARUS

In surrealism’s arms;
She offers her cold embrace,
With her deceiving smile she charms.
With broken wings;
I aim to soar, try to fly…
Bloodied up, it hurts, I cry!
Black smoke afloats;
Damn! it chokes.
Illumination blindly guiding.
To crossroads unwavering; misleading!
Deafening serenity abound;
Absolute Nirvana, never found.
Cloaked fears chase me,
My tombstone they carry!
Blind preachers summon a test.
A cliff I reach, I rest…
I look down, I bleed.
With weary knees I plead.
Drops of crimson,
Fall to the vast oblivion.
Trinity ever so Holy,
On all my slumber persistently lonely.
Darkness I peeked;
At the bottom destiny I seeked.
Then I leap!
I weep…
Did I soar, did I fly?
A mystery…
Oh! Fate, Why…?!

Lull Me To Slumber

Lull Me to Slumber
a.k.a
[Loner chats with Phil Collins (private title)]

My heart once vacuum packed,
A feeling of sense it lacked.
Numbness beating,
Pins and needles pricking,
But last night briefly I smiled…
Time seemed to have flied.
That beautiful face seen once more.
Friendship again; it opened its door.
My new drinking buddy,
Across seas and country.
Your eyes, virtual lenses.
Your voice, keyboard phrases.
Ever the little big sister.
To all her friends, a comforter.
Always the subdued bad girl, you little rebel!
Her compared to diamonds, they lack luster.
A trip down nostalgia for miles
We crossed with a gleeful smile.
It’s dejavu like old times,
Swappin’ sob stories ‘til the clock chimes.
Sharing anecdotes and one liners,
With this now friend once partner.
While she chugs her cold beer in a distant land;
Cheap brandy I toast here on the other hand.
As we both lighted our lil’ cigars,
Happiness in us afire.
Makin’ funny faces, singin and dancin’,
Your eyes through virtual lenses, I’m starin’.
I’m fallin…
Always almost meeting on crossroads.
But heck, destinys’ mystery it corrodes!
For hours blissful intoxication,
Accompanied our conversation.
Again night and day shifted,
My head all-liquored up, senses drifted.
Shakespeare now I quote;
So this budding cunning linguist his words I rewrote,
“Adieu! Parting is such sweet sorrow
But I must bid goodnight
So I could chat with you tomorrow.”
Thanks Wildchild…
For last night I smiled!

Message in a Liquor Bottle

I lie weightless in the abysmal.
Absynthe fueled, I sit by the bayside;
Flinging pebbles,
Upsetting the tranquil sea.
But nay the deep,
Still serene as can be.
I stir the water,
Watch the shifting current.
And in my mind, I paddle…
A pen my friend.
The bottle my mistress.
The foghorn sounds!
The lighthouse it blinds!
And in my mind, I paddle…
I sip the last drop,
Bitter sweet tang lingered.
My thought it enthused.
The felt tip it spoketh.
And in my mind, I paddle…
Pages upon pages;
Layers realized,
Nostalgia rain poured.
Rhythmic lullabies it spewed
Tears kissed the melancholic ink.
For again like lovers,
In each others company.
Misty eyed,
Once more a tear fell.
It touched the once calm sea,
The waves it sternly rippled.
The swell it pained for me!
And in my mind, I paddle…
The bottle she’s drained.
The pen all out of words;
Her name and mine,
With crimson tears I scribe.
Bottled up pages, I threw!
Now reaching… nowhere I knew.
Nowhere, seem my fated place.
The spot I covet to be.
I scream finally…
And in my mind, I drown!
And in my mind, totally free!
…Her!
… and Me!

My latest deviation if you will; comic illustrations of actual peeps. They're not yet finished though, a little more touching up on Photoshop for the colors and 'Voila!' as they say; another one for the books.
