The Cave
Stomp, stomp, thump thump that’s the sound of my feet .
Pound pound that is the sound of my heart as it skips and jumps a beat.
Heat, nightmares fears
Blood rushing through my veins is the sound in my ears!
Black, black shivers down my back
Reaching out for the confidence I lack.
Creep, crawl edging my way along the wall.
Must not my back expose who knows
What evils in the darkness grows.
Blink, blink ,wink wink as my eyes strain to see the light,
If I can make it, I’d be free outside to the air and the night.
Drip, drop, drip, plop the sound of my tears, they cut no ice
In this life you take what you get, the result of the throw a dice .
Drag, drag, scrape,scrape clank
The sound of my chain as it yanks.
Tired, tired, exhaustion, exhaustion, pain pain ..
Fear, that shadow at opening he will be there again.
Makes me quiver and quake and wet myself just like it was before
No matter how close I shall never escape, freedom no more.

Thursday photo prompt – Glimpsed – #writephoto
This week’s photo prompt:
The priory on the Rim of Io
The priory on the Rim of was the last of it’s kind almost forgotten by the rest of creation. …but not quite!
Stay away from the windows she had been told by grandfather and by Mother Superior both. They had impressed upon her the importance of her presence being there was to be a secret. The Nuns were all delightful and so kind but they, being a silent order could only speak to her between the hours of six and eight pm. So even though they did their best to entertain their guest she was lonely.
She spent her days , happily in the priory and it’s gardens, the smell of the strange flowers native to Io calming and soothing her. Her nights she was enthralled by the other three Galilean moons that orbit Jupiter.
Keep away from the windows at night they all told her, you must not be seen. Your condition will give you away.
She did try but the spectacular light that was generated by Io and the other three moons of Jupiter was enthralling.
Stay away from the windows they had begged her but the lights already had a hold on her.
And so it was that she , the last pregnant woman in the Universe, the last pregnant woman in thirty years stood at the window watching the lights washing over Io.
Sadly the bounty hunters from Mars saw her at the window, they saw her long hair and pregnant belly, too young, too beautiful to be an ancient Nun.
What future the Universe the only pregnant woman in thirty years held to ransom.All because she could not resist looking out the window.
Song Lyric Sunday: Anger

The very busy and talented Helen Espinosa of This Life One Word At A Time has set us a new Song Lyric Sunday prompt , she said : “Our theme for Song Lyric Sunday is to post a song that explores anger. (I know anger is a secondary emotion, so maybe that isn’t the best word choice, but I think it’s broad enough we should be able to come up with something.) “
There are songs about anger and there are songs about ANGER! The songs I have picked are about ANGER that builds up between couples, it builds and builds until it explodes like a venomous boil!
I can really empathize with the lyrics of this first song, I have been there and suffered the rage and the vile words. The words pick up perfectly the atmosphere between the couple on the way home from a night out . They have had to put on a united face all evening but now alone they can no longer keep their anger under wraps and it explodes! This is a brilliant song and I am sure many of you will recognise the feelings expressed so will within it by my favourite Immie !
IMOGEN HEAP LYRICS
“The Beast”
Steady as we go, steady as we goI can sense in opening the front door as we came in
You were burning a hole in my back
Can we turn this around from where we lost you in the evening
Before things get out of hand
One by one eyes go optic, we’re becoming the beast
Shear power and the heat of hate brings our army of two to its knees
Steel lungs are shouting the house down, going for the kill from the kiss
Battle stations are now navigation, have we driven love to this?
Gently as we go, gently as we go
Steady as we go, steady as we go
All fired up, you’re a hot mess getting messier
I’d do anything for sleep
But I can think of far better ways to waste your energy
If you can bare to still touch me
One by one skin hardens, we’re becoming the beast
Shear power in the heat of hate brings our army of two to its knees
Steel lungs are screaming the house down, going for the kill from the kiss
Battle stations are now navigation, have we driven love to this?
Have we left, have we left the building?
Did we die a little death?
Is this the end of the road for us, no more bridges for us to burn left?
Do we finally find ourselves at the point of no return?
One by one, we’re becoming the beast
Sheer power in the heat of hate brings our army to its knees
Steel lungs are shouting the house down, going for the kill from the kiss
Battle stations are now navigation, have we driven love to this?
Gently as we go, gently as we go
Steady as we go, steady as we go
Also another great song about anger also by Immie is, The Moment I Said It . It catches the feeling when you spark that huge argument in the middle of the night and all hell lets loose!
IMOGEN HEAP LYRICS
“The Moment I Said It”
the moment I opened my mouth
lead in your eyelids
Bulldozed the life out of me
I know what you’re thinking
But darling you’re not thinking straight
Sadly things just happen…. we can’t…… explainIt’s not even light out,
But you’ve somewhere to be – no hesitation
No I’ve never seen you like this
And I dont like it, I dont like it, I dont like it at all
Just put back the car keys
or somebody’s going to get hurt
who are you calling at this hour
sit down, come round , I need you now
we’ll work it all out together
we’re getting no where tonight
now sleep, I promise, it’ll all seem better somehow
in time
It’s not even light out
Suddenly, you’ve somewhere to be
No hesitation
mmm…I’ve never seen you like this
Your scaring me, Youre scaring me,
Your scaring me to death
Don’t..oh, smash….please
Don’t…oh…..and another one
Don’t…oh…..and another one
I’m losing you…….I’m losing you
Trust me on this one
I’ve got a bad feeling
Trust me on this one
You’re going to throw it all away
With no hesitation
Bye bye bye bye bye bye
bye bye bye bye bye
bye bye bye
bye
