worms
Sitting in my coffin
I'm just sitting in my coffin.
I forgot my cold tea on the table.
I'm six feet under on the second floor.
Untidy little coffin. Untidy leaking brain.
My ear is itching on the inside.
Must be the worms.
I can move my fingers still.
That's fine, I don't need them.
I'm just sitting in my coffin.

They saw they thought
in April woods
the blooming light
of a spring dogwood
but it was
last year's translucent
gold leaves
glowing on
a gingko tree.
DIET OF WORMS
One heard of The Diet of Worms
and thought of robins
swallowing whole
beings who squirm
Others
of the papal attempt
to arrest Martin Luther
on which Pope Leo X stood firm.
Footnote:
The Lutheran Church has asked
forgiveness for Luther’s
virulent Judaophobic writing. That
was not the reason for the attempt
to arrest him.

RIB CAGE IN HOSPITAL
a vision of a woman
in the hospital…
a live bird trying
to escape her rib
cage…
was it the soul
trying to leave the body…
or the sickness caused
by eating a chicken?

Yidhra - Part II
Folder:
Cthulhu Mythos Yidhra has many forms,
But none of them include worms.
To create a world-spanning whole,
Including vulturine Y'hath, Xothra;
Who sleep in the Earth
And wakes to devour.
A beautiful woman named Yolanda,
Her true form is unknown.
Mentioned in a few rare Mythos tomes.
What waits from the Gates of Death
Folder:
Camino Under the orange haze of dying sky, he stood; full of anxiety and tension;
full of conflict, as they prepared for the coming night.
From places unseen, the sorrow of the dead echoed faintly on the fleeing wind.
As if seeking refuge like the worms that crawl from long dead cadavers,
cries of the tormented clawed at the gates of a distant hell.
In his ears pain and suffering had found home.
As he looked into the horizon, he wondered how much longer they would last.
How much longer could they continue to run?
Eventually the stalking death would find them.
Would they stand and fight now, or keep running for as long as they could?
Looking down, he closed his eyes.
