FIRST PLACE - A Final Preformance by *HeadmistressMercedes -
A Final PerformanceThe trees are on fire.
Even in this perfect, sparkling black, the flames burn on. In shades of rust, of gold, of earth and of blood, they light up the skies in a closing cry before their fall.
The air is scrubbed clean. The heaviness of a long-time drought fades in this crisp new painting. The close, soupy atmosphere of ages previous has all but vanished, expelled in contempt by a colourful new reign.
The stars have never looked so sharp, like each is coated in diamonds and ice. Each point of light, so very far away for something so clear, has its own crown, a splendid jewel suspended on black velvet for the earth to envy.
The world is gi

Loveless
Loveless
Still like dreaming, you hold me dear-
The Autumn night surreal, the silence bare;
The wind a still gossamer like web tangled wings,
Soft whispers touching of clementine dreams...
The gifts of the Goddess, we take to the skies
An embrace of twilight that between us, lies-
Of masquerading truths and clandestine desires,
And darkening lusts and kindling fires-
You spoke to me, on that Autumn's night
And gave me empty promises that still set me alight-
Temptations, bitter honey, multicolored leaves
All set to rot when spent the last of the eve-
And twisting your hands, you turned the world to naught-
All the hardships and

The Passer-ThroughOnce upon an autumn night,
When children danced in deep delight,
Stood a man upon the bed
Of grinning, splitting leaves.
Step by step he made his way
throughout the streets of child's play.
Ev'ry creature turned to see
And not a word was said.
His eagle eye—he had but one—
Scanned the slowly setting sun,
Scrutinized and glanced upon
The people in the street.
Ev'ry man who met his gaze
Quickly flinched and looked away—
For on his bristly, brutal cheek
A mark of vice was set.
Deep the bitter scar was etched,
From his eye to lip was stretched.
From his lips a snarl would stem
When someone stopped to stare.

Once Upon an Autumn NightOnce upon an autumn night
I mourned the loss of summers bright
Of skies so blue and beautiful
Of greening shades and breezes cool
As golden leaves obscured my view
Beneath the trees I thought of you
I looked upon the waxing moon
To hold back tears that came too soon
The air was still, the night was young
The chill surreal, so cold it stung
A quick end to my reverie
Of summer's warmth and energy

Autumn Night.The crisp, cool air blanketing me in a shower of chills.
My eyes grow wide, captivated by the glorious sight that surrounds me.
The snow crunches underneath me with every step, the only thing breaking this beautiful silence.
As I look ahead of me, I catch a glance of a fox and its kits, Her fur shines a radiant white, illuminating under the clear night sky, bedazzling my eyes as she gracefully glides across the ground, her little ones not far behind.
Off to my right I hear the cooing of a barn owl, its flaring gold-brown colors reflect power and grace.
I inhale the fresh autumn air as winter nears, the cool, minty air exhilarates me, cleansing me of all my troubles.
Upon this glorious Autumn night, I feel most alive.
