Beyond the Veil of Stars
Hear me Now Hear my words For I know not What lies beyond the veil What awaits me Past the curtain of Stars But I do know this A man awaits me Upon a tall Mountain O'er a broad glen With Sword in hand! Doom in is Eyes! And patience of soul He awaits Some … Continue reading Beyond the Veil of Stars
Poetry
Today I'd like to talk about poetry. Now I'm not going to present an argument for the elements of poetry and it's social role. No, rather I'm only going to just lay out the kind of poetry that I'm going to be posting. I am not great scribe of poetic form. I simple write when … Continue reading Poetry

Wherefore, with a desire to remain as concise as … Continue reading Philosophical Assumptions & Comment
