    What’s pressure good for?
    Oh.. so.. many things.
    Pressure is good
    for pumping blood
    throughout the body..
    which then helps
    the living tissues
    feed and breathe.
    It takes a lot of pressure
    to make diamonds
    out of humble
    coal.

    Within a car’s
    combustion engine
    pressure also plays
    a …

    What are the rules
    of etiquette
    to be observed
    by those
    who choose
    to show up
    to The Devil’s
    masquerade?

    Rule number one.
    We mean one thing..
    another thing entirely
    is what we say.
    In other words,
    we only speak
    The Devil’s tongue..
    of para-semantic
    obfuscation
    and poetic …

    Who doesn’t love
    a bit of drama
    now and then?
    Of course,
    as long as
    the spotlight
    isn’t shining
    on them.

    When
    the categorical
    imperative
    becomes to act..
    so many people
    lose their head
    and turn their back.

    Alas, the audience
    I entertain
    consists of only
    The One …

    May the first one
    be without me.
    May the second one
    greet (metaphorical,
    in-game, in-Minecraft)
    Death.

    May the third one,
    by the sacred will
    of The Almighty,
    come around
    at last.. and
    May the fourth one be
    with someone else..
    in some strange galaxy
    far, far away from me
    instead …

    Bohemian Rhapsody - Part III
    “The Shoshana Moon”

    I mean, come on..
    You do not see
    hell freezing over
    every day..
    but once upon
    a blue moon
    it just May.

    Blue like The Lilly
    as it was upon a time
    red like The Rose.
    Shoshana
    is the thread
    that ties together …

    “Tom (with the weather)”

    Host:
    Don’t take
    my word for it..
    I know somebody
    more authoritative
    who knows better!
    Now give it up
    for my dear colleague..
    Tom (with the weather).

    Tom:
    Gather now,
    my tribespeople,

    Bohemian Rhapsody - Part I
    “Heavy Weather”

    Oh me, oh my,
    good people..
    have you heard
    The Weather Report?
    Perhaps you didn’t..
    maybe it was
    yet another
    secret forecast..
    broadcasted
    straight into
    my Broca’s area
    by sacred will
    of The Divine..
    The All.

    Upon the eve
    of Sabbath,

    If you’re so keen
    on dancing
    with The Devil..
    Then you better learn
    The Devil’s basic step.
    Indeed, he was the only one
    who saw me through
    and kept me on my feet..
    in those dark days
    when God still slept.

    It’s easy..
    one step forward,

    It’s true, indeed,
    that hope dies last.
    And then it’s buried
    in the soil of our
    present past.

    But then again..
    tomorrow always brings
    a future present of The Sun
    that rises as a herald
    of the coming day.

    Though it is dark right now,
    I still hold …

    The Dragon..
    is the silent beast.
    Upon our fear
    and our uncertainty
    it feasts.
    It smells whichever
    doubts
    we hold within
    ourselves..
    and then exploits them
    for its own
    draconic ends.

    What does it take
    to banish
    this ol’ tyrant
    of the dark
    and moonless night?
    The same capacity
    that …
