The Minotaur's Bride
The pale skinned bride
Held close by her lovers arms,
Her fair lips sweetly kissing
The young prince, so eager
to love such as she, caressing
her golden honey hair
The sweet aroma of flesh
Surrounds their chamber,
And the feeling of soft cloth pervades all
It is a violent passion
That they share,
A hungering for the nectars of meat
The rising tide of pleasure
And the final crashing of waves
And they lay still after
The darkness of night hides
The thief who steals into the
Chamber
His mighty horns cast
Evil shadows in the
Lamplight of the palace
The nuptial chamber,
Torn open and
The beauty laying nude asleep
Sees not nor hears

Iris's Net
Iris spent many years threading together a net to cast out into the stars.
She wove day and night, stopping only to eat and drink,
and sometimes fell exhausted to the ground.
She wove like a spider, her fingers delicately twining the threads of
quicksilver together over and over again.
She finished after one hundred years of weaving had passed,life barely remaining
in her thin frame.
She took the net up onto the highest mountain peak and cast it out into
the night sky, and dragged it back in.
The stars and moons and planets were all caught there in the net, and Iris looked over them one by one.
She looked at them forever and t
The Fossil
The hot white sand of the desert hid a fossil, buried deep.
The sand had been bleached white by the sun, and rain rarely fell onto the dunes.
A little boy found the desert once, and he dug deep down until the fossil was uncovered.
It was much too heavy for him to carry, so he left it there in the hole.
The boy left the desert and went off away, while the fossil remained in the hole.
The sun beat down upon the fossil in the hole, and when it left the sky, the stars shone down gently.
Wind whistled and the fossil turned to dust, the hole filling in once more.

The Raccoon and the Salamander
The Raccoon and the Salamander
The forest around the mountain had been so hot that all of the animals and trees felt as though they were near to death.
It began when the mountain blazed with light one night, and it had been getting hotter ever since.
The raccoon, seeing all of his friends so miserable around him, decided to investigate the mountain one evening.
He went into it, and found there a strange lizard with a long worm like body and many legs.
It hissed at him and said:
"Who are you who disturbs my passing?"
"I am just a raccoon, that is all. I came to seek the source of this awful heat."
"I am he,a salamander who has fallen from hi
The Shining Sea
Amil the cat had left his home for the shining sea, hoping to one
day find more than what he had come from.
Days became nights and then nights became day again, and the sea
carried Amil
Then one night the boat shook and Amil woke to find
his little craft had been beached on an island
He walked up onto the beach and into the trees, and hearing something
beyond them he walked on
He stumbled out of the deep woods and into a grassy field, and the grass rolled
in the night wind
A horse came to Amil and offered to give him a ride, and he leapt onto its back.
They rode up and over hills and into the sky, amongst the stars an

I Saw Them Eat Munoz
Somewhere off, away
I guess, I saw them eat Munoz-
It was Tuesday, or was it Wednesday? Anways,
I saw them eat Munoz-
It was awful, I mean, really bad,
It was awful the way they ate Munoz-
Not much to do about it though, not really,
he's gone

Let me shed my skin for you
bare my teeth all angry
Hear the venom in my words
This night will never end
our bodies melt together
and I yell at you and you cry
and it is all we have
right now these feelings
alive inside and still I die
with every whimper,
reptile in the sun so merciless
I felt pity once before but it hurts too much
so I harden, the scales turning to stone
