My brains told me that tears of grief serve only the living provider of such benign diamonds.Again and again that wisdom hailed down from my thoughts and again and again my eyes ignored the blatant claim of the perverse, bleak business of it all.The tears fell in quiet patient trickles, or raged in hot rushes, whilst grief itself remained indifferent; disagreeable like a gravity bound rag doll, I the stubborn child that repeatedly righted the limp plaything insane with a doctor Frankenstein-like need to impart animation.

Give me Gods to battle, don't give me this hellish nothing...give me blood filled beasts to sink my talons and teeth into, don't....don't give me the hollow coil, the cooling metal of a discharged firearm, the ammunition choked, spent.

Kill me, fine, but not with quiet. Silence. Stillness.The unnatural calm, the doldrum.I cannot rail against what will not return my screams.Turn the lights not off!!

****ation, a crushed white rose against my palm, a blossom bent and disarranged between my fingers, the heady scent lingering with ancient course, griefs forever sweet reminder of purpose, the hapless beauty of ritual misfortune.Grief, your cabbage heart is in my teeth, my fangs ply venom for venom's sake, your fragrance loses strength, it knows itself ugly before I conquer it, and if grief lives when it dies, it shall squirm in my ribs, a snake of sewer-pipe proportion.

Grief, the viscrea-born reptile, cold-blooded, forever in need of digesting, a bloating and a belching. Discomfort no chemical can solve.The thing, the thorn... the nothing under the skin.I've stayed my weaponless fists against you too long, hollow-handed friend of sorcerer's, I will not play that fool again.
