Hell House (graphic art)
dark
Held Prisoner (a poem)
I can swear I heard waves,
gently washing on a shore,
but I could not see an ocean,
for I was locked under the cellar door
The wild man put me here,
after pounding my head on the floor,
he danced in the moonlight,
he never told me what for

Night Terrors (a poem)

Dead Garden (a poem)
watching from the fire escape
I breathe in daylight, fresh air

like the Destroyer God who
