Vanishing stars and Endless nights
by Tammy Darby
It is common knowledge amongst those of ink and pen
There are many that flee from the light
Those who yearn with all their being for endless nights
As shimmering stars forever fade from the sky
The silent ones who thrive and bloom in the cold darkness
Devoid of sound and beyond human sight
Kindred souls writhing in tempestuous maniacal rhyme
Boldly defiant of normalities laws, realities, boundaries, and time.

On the wings of a Black Raven.
by Tammy Darby
Turn yourself from my rage
As surely as I speak it will destroy you
Shield yourself from my glaring glance
As it is a slow but indubitable poison
There is no mercy to be found
In this unforgiving dead heart
No pity present in the chilled organ
No light penetrates the folds of the dark

Condemned to my own living hell
by Tammy Darby
My thirst for revenge was so great
The earth trembled in fright
And in my unbounded fury
Blinded the sun itself
And flung the moon from the sky
The stars fled from their cluster’s sparkling ever so bright
The universe conceded, vanquished, cowered and cried
My anger was vehement
HeavIng forth oceans from their beds

The mirror holds many answers
by Tammy Darby
If you dare look upon its reflection
Or have you the courage to look upon the face
Delve into your soul
Without self-admonishment or rejection
Though it holds many answers
So too does the mirror present many questions
The righteous existence of a soul
The solemn eyes that stare into it
Projecting endless depth and flawed perfection

Manipulators of the mind
by Tammy Darby
The topic I present to you is manipulation
In the process as a reward
Provide you with cerebrel sensations
Direct you're psyche on the path the elites choose
You're mind and vote are what they want to use
Parasites they play on your loyalty to the nation and sympathy
Crow loudly about their public good deeds and humanity
All the while fingers crossed behind their backs
Unreadable faces

The Second Wave
by Tammy Darby
Time altered within itself
And the turning world stopped
Life’s exodus began
The frozen hands of a clock
Alone with only their thoughts
Humans perished in silence and fear
Struggling and infected
Dying faces covered in tears

The Gordian Knot
by Tammy Darby
In concocting different personas
A writer must enhance their creations
By ignoring those who malign the rendition
Providing those that do agree
With a sense of smug elation
This tangled helix was created from lost thoughts
And writers worship of imagination.
One of the components of a gordian knot
Is first and foremost the dominant personality
