Time Code

"Encoded arc, our common cause....
Drink liquid clocks 'til I see God;
Crystal display....Can't turn it off."

(2008)

The love of my life lived with me in a townhouse upstate.

She was a wonderful person; vibrant, and with so much energy.
But one day she came home with the palest face.
She had seen it for the first time.

(2009)
The love of my life was sick.
She was succumbing to the tall, suited man.
One day, she came home and placed a dagger to my throat.
She forced me to proclaim allegiance to it.

(2010)
The love of my life died in a plane crash.
She had so much time.
In a day gone by, she was promised life by our boss,
But he took it away from her. He broke our deal.
He traded her life for another’s.
                                                     
(2011)
I now travel the country, looking for the woman who stole my life’s love.
I kill people all the time.
No one gets in my way, be it It’s servants, It’s enemies, or another It.
I won’t stop until I kill,
Juliet.
