Description:
A caustictionary tale of hopes, dreams, and sorcery.
Centred around an unnoteworthy narrator's chance encounter with a ominous, almost mythological, figure while in a quasi-fugue state; and them spending the night together - in a selling one's soul type of deal gone awry.
Written a couple of months ago, abandoned at last. 


An Exorcise In Magentic Blue

For Nazaninka

Out for groceries on this Friday night
Bumped into an old friend
Somewhere along the way

A dour type of fella
I vaguely knew as Talis K

It's decided: put him in a cup
And the ex in exorcise
He grabbed me by the throat
As I led her up the stakes
I wasn't cold, I wore his coat

Took the night off, as if to think
Instead half-bottled peaty drink
Took the time, avoiding bed
Trading night's pain o' heart
For the morrow's achy head

The night now dark
My room still bright
Ol' Tali's a ten, I took his bait
As are you, add a quarter century
Half a lifetime, worth the wait

A conclusion yet unseen
A happy one, and more happy than
Since this Tali's had his birth
This working out, it should
Leaving a happiest me on earth

All that said, here's what is left:
Fear and doubt far and gone
From this side a
 mine
Thus I ask what you now hold
In these cards of thine?

So far as I'm concerned
I'm still yours, and you're still mine
So we said, still rings true
Yet I float in one peculiar place
A place I call Mag
entic Blue

I do not care about any law - real or made-up - or anyone that has any different interpretation of the word "FAIR" - don't care how broken it is and you think it ain't.

This is what I say you may or may not do with my work:

YOU MAY take every letter, word, phrase, sentence, paragraph, chapter, an entire piece or a collection of my work and DO SOMETHING with it.

YOU MAY NOT take an atom of my work and WRITE ABOUT, TALK ABOUT it, or make other form of 'PIECE' ABOUT it - nor use it for any form of personal or monetary gain.

YOU MAY NOT translate a word, phrase, sentence, paragraph, chapter, story or parts thereof if all you do is translate it.

YOU MAY NOT take any exceptions to that - without my exclusive consent - what I publish here is public and free - do not take that away from me.

I do not write for profit nor power - I write for anyone who wants to read.

I do not want anyone else to treat my work with any less dignity and respect than I do. 

You are going to look very stupid if you disagree, and really boring as a person.

That is something you live with.

I am being very clear on that.
