Calm is the night that beckons sit in stillness
Still is the sky that constant quiet stirs
Quiet the call of distant starlit vastness
Echoing all eternal turning churns
Ever expanding omnipotent traveling trillions
Masterfully crafted complexity spun into time
Endlessly infinite axioms battle for brilliance
Effortless intricate perfectly poignant design
Powerful presence of purpose in majesty’s shadows
Reckless abandon in sweeping displays of expanse
Wisdom in rhythmic percussion beyond understanding
Destinies chartered in tragedy, challenge, and chance
Evidence everywhere adds to the brilliant bravado
Images racing in reeling expedient speed
Quantum mechanics unraveling future endeavors
Motions perpetual pressed toward intrepid intrigue
Wayward instinctual methods impressively paused
Stymied in light of the winking extinction of stars
Prowess unparalleled etched in perpetual change
Pondering shifts in the paradigm measured in pain
Questions abound as the pendulum swings unannounced
Locked in the interim hoping tomorrows oblige
Everyone given their moment to score when it counts
Praying our vision is clear when our moment arrives
No one expects when calamity knocks on the door
Anyone feeling entitled, we study the Truth
I been embracing the fact that my problems are yours
Studying ways to engage and uncover the roots
Waxing poetic is rarely a random event
Touched by the spirit anointed but humbly resigned
Traveling avenues paved in relentless expense
Paying the dues of a penitence barely defined
Cracking the door as an offering here as I stand
Promising more than I know I’ll eventually give
Honoring what I’m bestowed when it’s clearly in hand
Learning to take what is given in fullness to live
Chasing the vision believing completion is coming
Prisoners trapped in the past when the Promise is here
Reasons for running collapse in the chaos of cunning
Finally running forever, the vision is clear

The Devil's Cut
“Comrade, finally you’re awake.” The voice was smooth, sensual. A flickering incandescent bar was all that lit the white, sterile room. All Vladimir remembered was everything going black. He tried to move his arms and found them strapped to the gurney.
