MAGIC


Source:

MAGIC
Magic governs our lives.
It sets the course.
The paths we follow.
Igniting in colors.
Creations.
Roaring wildlife.
Sedate sceneries.
Words in a book.
Clouds in the sky.
Magic.

RAIN


Source:

Safe and secure.
Beneath the bridge.
Rain splashing free.
Wild on its journey.
Watering the trees.
Filling the grass.
Life for the flowers.
Puddles for the concrete.
A splash.
A spray.
Cold on my face.
Alive.
Surrounding me.
With life.

HELL HAS ARRIVED


Source:

Hell has arrived.
Burning in its chair.
Impatient for victims.
Restless to the bone.
Burning bright.
Glowing embers.
Filling the dark.
Red and yellow sparks.
Sizzling.
Hot.

THE DEAD GAME

MAN VS. NATURE


Source:

Man takes over nature.
Then he must re-create it.
In his own format.
In his own fake way.
But never the same.
Never as good.

ONE OF MY FAVORITES


I had to post this again. It popped up on my Facebook timeline today.
5.0 out of 5 stars deliberately leads the reader into a Pandora’s Box, creating a paradoxical effect that is most imaginative and rare…….., February 17, 2015 
This review is from: The Dead Game (Paperback) 
Usually I don’t like vampire stories, their trite and Susanne Leist’s “The Dead Game” is like a scavenger hunt with a twist of the board game “Clue”. Every character is like a chess piece and just when you think you’ve got checkmate, you realize the game isn’t over yet. Leist has added a refreshing twist with this with a lot of plot twists which prolongs the suspense aspect which keeps the intrigue intense. It’s like Hollywood story meets “The Munsters.” Starting with the haunted house deliberately leads the reader into a Pandora’s Box, creating a paradoxical effect that is most imaginative and rare. Very creative!

BALANCED AT THE EDGE


A house balanced at the edge.
Daring all to enter its domain.
A black invitation in hand.
We go to the party.
Faced with deadly traps.
We run for our lives.
Down the rocks.
To the beach.
Winds bashing our faces.
Lightning lighting our way.
To the park.
To a gazebo lit by candles. 
A hanging body inside.
Will this night ever end?
THE DEAD GAME by Susanne Leist

WHO AM I?





Source:

Who am I?
Who is this creature staring back at me?
Do I look like this on the inside?
Do I appear like this to others?
Why is the mirror cracked?

KEEP SPINNING






Each day we spin a web.
A web of lies.
White lies.
Deadly lies.
Fake smiles.
Untrue feelings.
Keep spinning.
Until it ties you up
Into one tight knot.

BURN BABY BURN



Burn baby burn.
Your blood runs hot.
Oozing down the stem.
Dripping to the ground.
Leaving mounds of red.
Where buds will spring up.
And take their rightful place.
In the world of The Dead.

THE DEAD GAME
 

MIRROR MIRROR ON THE WALL



MIRROR MIRROR
Can you see your demons?
What you hide inside.
From others.
From the world.
Fire and heat.
Revenge and blood lust.
Hidden inside.
Is it reflected in your face?
Look closer.
Look deeper.
Can you see it?
I can.

UPSIDE DOWN



Upside down.
Nothing makes sense.
The evil succeed.
The good fail.
Living is for the bad.
Dying is for the good.
If I turn my head
Upside down,
Will it finally make sense?
