PRISON OF INFINITY

A ghostly silence
traces of the past.
There is a flag of freedom
on the dark side
of the moon—
in the vastness
of time.

Burned bridges
of freedom;
dead silence
in the abyss
of death.
Gruesome shadows
of a salvation army;
I dream of centuries
in a prison of infinity.

CIRCLE

Symbolism
of a perfect circle
saved for centuries.
the storm is getting closer
the wind is getting stronger
the door is almost closed
I believe in a mirror of perfection;
But danger is coming
without warning
from all directions.

STARS ON FIRE

Dark star
in the heart of graves
prayer spirits
upon the ashes
of centuries;
black ground
covered.

There are horrible
screams
in the dark.
depths,
times,
missing
in the ashes…
the stars
are on fire.
