They say men go crazy looking at the moon,

please think me not a loon.
Though 'tis strange to be jealous of him.
...

What is loves definition?
let me share my conviction.

If love is based in their smile
or their personality has us beguiled.
...

Brought home, glorious and blooming,
unaware of its fate, looming.
Cold, forgotten, left to the elements,
soon it begins its wilting lament.
...

An apparition, with dire grinning lips
manifesting while my heart skips
In its wake filth and mire tracks
gasping as I see beneath the mask
...

Beauty like the sea
projecting passionate purity
in a moment, a tempest irrepressible
tempean grace uncontrollable
...

Into the night I go
what I dream up I'll never know
of dragons and flagons of ale?
of a lonely knights strange tale?
