Wondrous Gobbledygook By Richard H. Fay On a wonderful Nagoogoo morn, While the bumox skip across the fwa, I strum the strings of my zidipip And slowly sip a gurgle burgle Beside the pink waters of Baffbee. On the puboo of a keckleschmeck, I spy a blue-green fuguwordle Crawling upon an etafal leaf. I pluck a crimson syton flower And place it in Zabugana's hair. On a glittering Nagoogoo night Wududolons wing across Phreetum And the violet shlubiyemps sing. A gentle breeze blows off of Baffbee As Zabugana lies next to me. (Originally published April 2011 in the webzine Aphelion)
Souls Adrift by Richard H. Fay We roam this world Mere shadows of life But faintly perceived By mortal kind. We stalk dark halls In derelict homes, Forsaken cast-offs Of yesteryear. We whisper words Never understood, Our voices muffled By death’s cruel hand. We enter dreams As pale reflections, Memories of flesh Long turned to dust. We crave strong hearts And warm, supple limbs, But find only bones And graveyard mould. We are legion, Wretched multitudes Ever united, Always alone. (Originally published in Fear and Trembling, April 8, 2010.)
Here's a sampling of the sorts of poems (shown here with accompanying images) readers will encounter in COSMIC JOURNEYS AND GOTHIC VISIONS:
