The Raven

12:26 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 571


Let the sad presaging raven that tells

The sick man's passport in her hollow beak,

And in the shadow of the silent night

Doth shake contagion from her sable wings

Lilith

12:20 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 572


Ne quodcumque uelit poscat sibi fabula credi,

Neu pransae lamiae puerum uiuum extrahat aluo.



Which Francis translates:



The probable maintain,

Nor force us to believe the monstrous scene,

Which shows a child, by a fell witch devour'd,

Dragg'd from her entrails, and to life restor'd.

"Prayer against the Evil Spirits"

12:12 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 574


Spirits that minish heaven and earth,

That minish the land,

Spirits that minish the land, Of giant strength,

Of giant strength and giant tread,

Demons (like) raging bulls, great ghosts,

Ghosts that break through all houses,

Demons that have no shame,

Seven are they!

Knowing no care,

They grind the land like corn

Knowing no mercy.

They rage against mankind:

They spill their blood like rain,

Devouring their flesh (and) sucking their veins.

Where the images of the gods are, there they quake

In the Temple of Nabû, who fertilises the shoots of wheat.

They are demons full of violence

Ceaselessly devouring blood.

Invoke the ban against them,

That they no more return to this neighbourhood.

By heaven be ye exorcised! By Earth be ye exorcised!"

Heaven can't touch

12:08 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 575


. . . . .



If thou wouldst fly up to heaven

Thou shalt have no wings,

If thou wouldst lurk in ambush on earth,

Thou shalt secure no resting-place.

Unto the man, the son of his god--come not nigh,

Get thee hence!

Place not thy head upon his head,

Place not thy (hand) upon his hand,

Place not thy foot upon his foot,

With thy hand touch him not,

Turn (not) thy back upon him,

Lift not thine eyes (against him),

Look not behind thee,

Gibber not against him,

Into the house enter thou not,

Through the fence break thou not,

Into the chamber enter thou not,

In the midst of the city encircle him not,

Near him make no circuit;

By the Word of Ea,

May the man, the son of his god,

Become pure, become clean, become bright!



. . . . .

May his welfare be secured at the kindly hands of the gods.

Vampyr

12:00 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 577


The gods which seize (upon man)

Have come forth from the grave

The evil wind-gusts

Have come forth from the grave

To demand the payment of rites and the pouring out of libations,

They have come forth from the grave;

All that is evil in their hosts, like a whirlwind

Hath come forth from their graves.



Or again:



The evil Spirit, the evil Demon, the evil Ghost, the evil Devil,

From the earth have come forth

From the Underworld unto the land they have come forth;

In heaven they are unknown,

On earth they are not understood,

They neither stand nor sit,

Nor eat nor drink."

Phantom

11:59 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 578


He that lieth in a ditch . . .

He that no grave covereth . . .

He that lieth uncovered,

Whose head is uncovered with dust,

The king's son that lieth in the desert,

Or in the ruins,

The hero whom they have slain with the sword.



And again:



He that hath died of hunger in prison,

He that hath died of thirst in prison,

The hungry man who in his hunger hath not smelt the smell of food,

He whom the bank of a river hath made to perish,

He that hath died in the desert or marshes,

He that a storm hath overwhelmed in the desert,

The Night-wraith that hath no husband,

The Night-fiend that hath no wife,

He that hath posterity and he that hath none.

Ghost

Whether thou art a ghost unburied,

Or a ghost that none careth for,

Or a ghost with none to make offerings to it.

Or a ghost that hath none to pour libations to it,

Or a ghost that hath no prosperity.

Lieth within the Desert.

11:57 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 580


The man whose corpse lieth in the desert--

Thou and I have often seen such an one--

His spirit resteth not in the earth;

The man whose spirit hath none to care for it--

Thou and I have often seen such an one,

The dregs of the vessel--the leavings of the feast,

And that which is cast out into the street are his food.

Shakespeare's Vampiric Heart

11:55 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 581


Thy mother felt more than a mother's pain,

And yet brought forth less than a mother's hope

To wit, an indigest deformed lump . . .

Teeth hadst thou in thy head when thou wast born,

To signify thou camest to bite the world.



And again:



For I have often heard my mother say

I came into the world with my legs forward . . .

The midwife wonder'd, and the women cried

"Oh! Jesus bless us! he is born with teeth!

And so I was: which plainly signified

That I should snarl, and bite, and play the dog.

The Faithfull Shepherdesse

Times Read: 582


Hi rami sunt mollis Acanthi,

Qui si uestibulis aut postibus affigantur,

Unde fores pendent, incantamenta repellunt

Omnia, pestiferæ facient licet illa MEDEÆ,

Quae laedunt homines pecudesue.





~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~

Elegant translation into English.

~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~*~~~~



These rhamnus' branches are,

Which, stuck in entries, or about the bar

That holds the door fast, kill all enchantments, charms--

Were they Medea's verses-that do harms

To men or cattle.

Rage, Pain, fear.

11:49 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 583


Ah! what ungovern'd rage, declare,

Neaera, too capricious fair!

What unrevenged, unguarded wrong,

Could urge thee thus to wound my tongue

Perhaps you deem th' afflictive pains

Too trifling, which my heart sustains;

Nor think enough my bosom smarts

With all the sure, destructive darts

Incessant sped from every charm;

That thus your wanton teeth must harm,

Must harm that little tuneful thing,

Which wont so oft thy praise to sing;

What time the morn has streak'd the skies,

Or evening's faded radiance dies;

Through painful days consuming slow

Through ling'ring night of amorous woe.

O dens improbe, dire, ter sceleste,

Dens sacerrime, dens inauspicate,

Tun' tantum scelus ausus, ut papillas,

Illas Pancharidis meae papillas,

Quas Uenus ueneratur et Cupido,

Feris morsibus ipse uulnerares?

Why do your looks and rumpled head-clothes show

'Tis more than usual sleep that made them so?

Why are the kisses which he gave betray'd,

By the impression which his teeth has made?

At Uenus inueniet puero succumbere furtim,

Dum tumet, et teneros conserit usque sinus.

Et dare anhelanti pugnantibus humida linguis

Oscula, et in collo figere dente notas.

But fav'ring Venus watchful o'er thy joy,

Shall lay thee secret near th' impassion'd boy; }

His panting bosom shall be prest to thine,

And his dear lips thy breathless lips shall join;

With active tongue he'll dart the humid kiss,

And on thy neck indent his eager bliss.

Weekdays

Monday's child is fair of face,

Tuesday's child is full of grace,

Wednesday's child is sour and grum,

Thursday's child has welcome home,

Friday's child is free in giving,

Saturday's child works hard for his living.

And the child that is born on Christmas Day

Is great, and good, and fair, and gay.

Hamlet

Times Read: 590


Some say that ever 'gainst that season comes

Wherein our Saviour's birth is celebrated,

The bird of dawning singeth all night long;

And then, they say, no spirit can walk abroad;

The nights are wholesome; then no planets strike,

No fairy takes, nor witch hath power to charm,

So hallow'd and so gracious is the time.

Beloved Vampire

11:16 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 591


"Sleep'st thou, Achilles, mindless of thy friend,

Neglecting, not the living, but the dead?

Hasten my funeral rites, that I may pass

Through Hades' gloomy gates; ere those be done,

The spirits and spectres of departed men

Drive me far from them, nor allow to cross

Th' abhorred river; but forlorn and sad

I wander through the wide-spread realms of night.

And give now thy hand, whereupon to weep;

For never more, when laid upon the pyre,

Shall I return from Hades; never more,

Apart from all our comrades, shall we two,

As friends, sweet counsel take; for me, stern Death,

The common lot of man, has op'd his mouth;

Thou too, Achilles, rival of the Gods,

Art destin'd here beneath the walls of Troy

To meet thy doom; yet one thing must I add,

And make, if thou wilt grant it, one request.

Let not my bones be laid apart from thine,

Achilles, but together, as our youth

Was spent together in thy father's house,

Since first my Sire Menœtius me a boy

From Opus brought, a luckless homicide,

Who of Amphidamas, by evil chance,

Had slain the son, disputing o'er the dice

Me noble Peleus in his house receiv'd,

And kindly nurs'd, and thine attendant nam'd;

So in one urn be now our bones enclos'd

The golden vase, thy Goddess-mother's gift."

Whom answer'd thus Achilles, swift to foot:

Why art thou here lov'd being? why on me

These several charges lay? whate'er thou bidd'st

Will I perform, and all in one short embrace,

Let us, while yet we may, our grief indulge."

Thus as he spoke, he spread his longing arms.

But nought he clasp'd; and with a wailing cry,

Vanish'd, like smoke, the spirit beneath the earth.

Only the eternal sleep

In an eternal night.

Are you Scared of Me??

09:28 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 600






What are you scared of?

Where are you going? Where are you going?

I wonder what you are doing

Are you scared of me?

Sometimes I am scared of myself,

What I am is very different?

You can see me coming a mile away.

Are you scared of me?

I am a creature that can not be tamed.

The blood inside of me is a mix of black and red.

I have got a demon inside of me.

Are you scared of me?

When it is night and the moon is about,

The creature inside of me comes out

So where are you going? Where are you going?

I am a creature that can not be tamed

Why are you scared of me?

Here I stand in front of you.

With the creature inside of me

I am waiting for someone to find me

HELP ME, HELP ME, JUST HELP ME!

Are you scared of me?

You are the only one I can trust.

So can you be here with me

So why do you fear me?

So are you scared of me?

So the creature inside of me is growing

It grows every year, more and more

At night it’s all out on the world

So don’t fear me or be scared of me

Tell me why you are scared of me

Look into the mirror at my reflection

You can see the battle within me

So if you’re scared of me, tell me why

I am a loner but I do have some friends

I am not as different as you think

I have all the same emotions

But I use them in a different way

Are you scared of me now?

So if you want to tell me

That you are scared of me

Then do it now!

Breath Of Life

09:22 Jan 27 2009
Times Read: 601








I look has the sun rises to bring the end of a cold night

The breeze of the morning sun wakes up the world

But there are parts that don’t get touched by the sun

The dark figures rest in the shadows

The wait for the night to come alive

Blood thirsty with a moments notice

There are some people that can go into the shadows

They are outsiders of the mortal race

They want to learn about the magic that make up life

The dark figures tell the outsides about the way of the night

They ask an outsider to join their side

The outsider agrees without hesitation

He becomes a creature of both night and day

He gets a new breath of life

The power of love, hate and pain went thought his body

The day sun shined and hurt his eyes

He is becoming a werewolf

With blood boiling in his veins

He thinks what he did to his life

I am a creature of the night he yells to the moon

That this a sound he hears in his ears

He opens his eyes and finds that it was all a dream

Or was it

That night the full moon rise

And fur goes around him and he howls long and loud

Blood lust in his new eyes looking for a kill

He takes on a bear and eats until full

And runs away and wakes up to the sun again

Does not remember anything

Except a new breath of life

My Poems

11:43 Jan 20 2009
Times Read: 619


{ Sweet Dreams }

The sweetest dream is when one's

dream is fulled with the one they love

that fulls there heart with love and joy,

A peace of serenity that relaxes us and

puts us at peace of mind that lets us

rest and sleep the sweetest dream of all.



{ Forever and Always }

I wanna love you forever and this is all i asking of you,

10,000 life times together. Is that to much for me to as for??

If it is i am sorry.. because form the moment i saw your face,

I felt a fire deep within your embrace that i crave from you.

Thats when and where i knew i was gonna love you forever

and always.



{ Love }

Love isn't about the hugs and kisses,

Its about the butterflies you get when you hear

his or her name or voice, and when you apart

from them ans start to think about them you blush

at the very thought that they maybe thinking of you too.



{ Trustworthy }

Be loved but never love. Attach but never combine.

Trip but never fall. Broken is better then being Shattered.

Tell him or her your strengths but never tell of your past.

But be trustworthy but never trust.Be cracked but never open.

Let them read what they can of you and see if it is truly worth it or not.



{ Needs }

The only people you need in your life,

are the ones that prove that they

NEED YOU.. in there life's.



{ Someone... Somewhere }

Someone.... Somewhere is dreaming of your smile,

and while they are thinking of you they are thinking

that life is worth living. So when ever you feel lonely.

Just remember someone.. somewhere is out there

thinking of you and is waiting to meet you face to face

and hopes to see the smile that they had dreamed of,

and only hope that you will give them a chance in

the love that they have for you.

My Poems

11:42 Jan 20 2009
Times Read: 620


{ Day Dreamer }

One's day dream is a hope,

They day dream a prayer,

One's day dream is a light

that can shine brightly as

the evening stars within

the heavens, So brightly

so that the one they

dream of can see it and

come home safe and

sound.



{ Every Heart }

Every heart shows love,

Every heart show pain,

Every heat has shown loss,

But in every heart there is

Hope.



{ Lost Hope }

When one love is lost it losses hope,

Once the heart losses hope,

Then they feel as if there is no

Hope for the world, When once feels

there is no hope in the world,

Then there is No Hope for the World.



{ Our Heart }

When one's heart is in pain,

It go through more pain then

what you can ever imagine,

So we sweep for our heart

and pray for the pain to go

away.
