Brother, hand me your knife
Walk behind me
Keep your hand on my shoulder
And follow

What strange place this is
these creatures unlike any i have ever seen
or even dreamed of
and I have dreamed of some weird shit, brother
they look like melting nightmares
where teeth sprout where they may
their skin shifts and moves
giving way to bones and hair
internal organs exposed to open air

you think that thing is edible?
maybe I can kill it for its meat
we've been lost in these dunes for days
and on my mother, i am hungry
no fruits here that we can eat
only this strange nightmare meat
perhaps it will not make us sick
now we only need to pick
which animal will sate our hunger

any idea where these dunes end
have we been walking in circles all these days
maybe we should point into a direction and start walking

Time Worm

somewhere in the stream of time
some seconds slipped off the drift
grouped together they formed the minutes
that turned into hours
then like an ancient organism
the Time Worm crawled out
into the muddy reality
it shook the water off its back
at the bank of the stream
so all that was seen of its absence
a hole in the stream
filled with a glitch
a void, a vacancy
that would never be complete
the little worm pranced its way
into the forest of forever
carrying memories on its back
that would never fade
blood tattooed
soul imprinted
never to be erased
and in some future forever
when the time stream will grow sluggish
the worm will crawl back in
to reboot the water
again

some memories fade, but some things are imprinted in your mind forever, that's what the time worm is carrying. and it's important because memories are the fuel that keep us going. love or hate,  thoughts are like bombs.
