A Short Short

If ever to heaven you be going 

I will bet that it'll be snowing 

Dreamt of a Memory

Lost in thought when

Of a sudden my

Breath caught, snagged

On a memory.

In hills high, a circle

Of my fiercest friends:

Was my warmth born

From the flaming

Hearth or from the

Burning hearts

Encircling me?

Outside, the snow in

Silence fell but

Inside I was

Insulated by the

Wealth of the love in

Which I was

Warmly ensconced. 

Aphorism #1

Hope is but an illusion for weak minds 

Aphorism #2

Violence is nothing more than a problem solving technique for uncomplicated people.

Aphorism #3

The only way to see into the darkness is by dreaming 

Particulate Contemplation

A crowd chants:

He is come!

He is come!

He is come!

Which sounds just like,

He is scum!

He is scum!

He is scum!

Remember, the devil is in the details.

Memento Mori

When it comes to war morality goes and hides in the cellar. Winning is the sole goal and killing is the means. Morality would only pour sand into the gears of the war machine. ⚔️🩸☠️
