Within, the tumultuous waves do roar,
In my mind, insist that I am an astronaut.
Hypersonic, astronomic flight,
A swift life met its fate.
Omnipresent, the heavens in hues of black and blue,
Yet adorned with shades of pink, purple, and gold.
Vaporous water phantoms drift,
At sunrise's glow, the fire of a new day's birth,
In the nascent dawn, a combustion of hope engirth.
Yet, for me, no hope dost gleam.
A gleaming orb emerged before my craft,
Too fast to alter course,
I met it in a clash,
My spacecraft and I transmuted,
Into a fiery cascade.
My vessel's now smoke and molten metal,
Yet I feel the ground beneath my feet.
I know I'm not alive,
Yet somehow, still living.
Defined by the ghosts of repetition,
Memories anchor me persisting.
She lingers ever in my musings.
Imagination, the creative pyre,
Put you into my arms,
Embraced with love and desire.
Mine realm is one of ceaseless fluttering of tiny wings,
Encompassed by constant, minuscule zephyrs, a life granulated.
Consumed by the allure of luminance,
Cocoons and caterpillars, poised to stir at my behest,
What have I become, a vessel for the night?
A shadowed figure, veiled in flying insects' flight.
My skin and muscles, undulating and loose,
Are not my own, yet they enact my bidding,
A puppetry of sinews, a form unwritten.
Amidst this dance, a spectral sight unfurls,
A swarm of moths, shaped like a man, in twirls.
In shadows deep, where starlight's tender gleam,
A man of moths, his essence like a dream.
When words come and go inside his ghostly head,
Echoes, tales of the past are tread.
Very cool and very crazy. It gives me an H.P. Lovecraft's "The Nameless City" vibe, and it's hard for me not to consider that something really, really awesome. Phantoms Vs Fire
You know the movie 'The Fly'? This is like Bauhaus had decided to teleport themselves, unaware that Joy Division had slipped inside the transmitter pod with them. Vlimmer is the hybrid that came out. Phantoms Vs Fire
If a group of environmentally minded gray aliens decided to form a rock band, their music might sound like this. Really enjoying the synth and rock fusion! Plushie Fanatic
Blinkhorn’s compositions bubble up from beneath the sound of actual rainfall, soothing and peaceful, surrounding you like a warm blanket. Bandcamp New & Notable May 22, 2022
