Fly Blue Night...


And today I set forth... 
To fly to the land of the cloud,  
To hunt demons and mystical mountains... 
I go. 
And to write, 
Fair well land of cruelty and scorched beauty... 
I am no longer bound by this boa constrictor.

The Goblin King - a small tribute....



Sing your heart of fire... 
Wings of dawn lift you up, 
And take you to new light... 
New heart. 
New sky. 
There you dance and laugh and shine. 

RIP

David Bowie

January 8th 1947 - January 11th 2016

Join me in your own Remember David Bowie day each January 11th.
Remember the man who was out of this universe and who taught us how to survive the Labyrinth. 
Wear something beyond crazy -  that you'd never wear -  and post to your media in his honor. 
May you ever live in our hearts.

Encyclopedia of Slip-ways.... Mirrors


Mirrors are dangerous and not to be taken idely. 
DO NOT ever look into a mirror in the dark. 
Doing so can trap a fracture of your soul within there
Mirrors are doorways and a form of slip-way. 
The oldest story -  or one of them -  about mirrors is that the devil made a mirror.  All who looked into the mirror became warped in soul,  and would see the world as ugly.  The devil attempted to fly to heaven to warp heaven itself but the mirror broke. It shattered into a million pieces and fell back to earth. Some people got it in their eyes and others made mirrors from the pieces. Still others got pieces stuck in their heart: creating cruelty,  hatred and malice in mankind. 
It is also said that the Snow Queen -  Winter herself -  tried to re-build the mirror. She needed every piece and so would take people who still had a fracture of that mirror within them. 

An entity,  a spirit haunts all mirrors,  it is malevolent and terrifying and was created by the ammassed legion of spirits who passed violently before a mirror. 
Mirrors are not always so dangerous,  sometimes they lead to other realms or dimensions and sometimes... They reveal what you are at your deepest. 
Cats can navigate the strange pathways through mirrors.

Encyclopedia of Slip-ways, Doorways and Half-Creatures...





Entry One:

Slag Heaps
And
Goblins. 

Slag Heaps are found in forests,  and particularly about Ghost Gums. They are recognizable for their vast size, a hill fashioned from the compost of the forest, pale stones and twisted branches. Mud too is deep within its structure. 
Slag Heaps are just one of the few Doorways into the Goblin Realm. 
To access the Realm from the Slag Heaps,  find one at half light -  morning or afternoon is fine -  and bring a blade just in case. Also it is useful to bring a pocket filled with five cents.   Usually though,  you will not need to use it. For most,  it is enough to stand upon the muddiest,  softest part of the Heap and this could be anywhere. So search carefully and once you find it, stand there and clear your mind. 
Eventually,  you will begin to sink. 
Once you sink below you will be in the Hallways of the Goblin. 

Goblins have rough skin and are alarming physically. They move easily through the in-between places of our world, through computers,  wall spaces,  attics,  basements,  the corners of your eyes and corners.  In ancient cultures they were responsible for.the theft of babies and leaving a changeling in their place. 
They love five cents,  socks and other nicknacks,  responsible for the lost things of our world and malfunctioning traffic lights and computers.

A Small List of All Hallows Safeguards.






A small list of All Hallow's Eve Safeguards... 

- NEVER look directly into mirrors in a dark room,  it can steal fractures of your soul and wake the beings that dwell behind it. 

- Lady bugs are good luck. 
- Killing ladybugs is bad luck and will cause the building you are in to catch on fire at some point. 

- Gecko's are good luck and ward off the creep crawls Minor Grade. 
- Moths represent death and its really bad luck if you kill them.  Most likely it will bring death or disease such as neumonia or mild colds. 

- Never keep your back to a doorway,  a mirror or a room. Things move in the shadows where we do not look and can crawl inside. 

- Cats are un-luck. As are crows. Able to navigate the hidden doorways and slip-ways of our world.   Occasionally they bring good fortune and at other times they herald oncoming horrors. If you are often followed by such creatures it means that you are of-kin,  a familiar with associations to Loki and with similar attributes. Crows and cats also increase access to the in-between places. 


- Don't step on cracks in footpaths. They are slip-ways and can bring bad luck. 

- Beware getting shit on by a crow,  it brings terrible bad luck for a day. 

- Snakes are good luck. (pythons,  cobras and green tree snakes). 

- Green tree frogs are good luck and ward against demons. 

- The presence of any other frog inside your home means a demon is within your walls.  DO NOT kill it but remove it as quickly as possible. 


- Be careful of what you say. Fate listens and enjoys playing the trixter and on occasion,  the executioner. 

- Breaking a mirror earns you seven hundred years of bad luck. 

- Always leave five cents at your front door or around the house.  It appeases and feeds the gremlins. 

- Always keep noise in the background,  silence breeds other things. 

- Be so scary that the monsters welcome you with open arms rather than teeth and claws. 

- Psalm 91 is an ancient ward against demons. 

See you on the other side of this nightmare season.

Just a Small Post-script to Lunacy: trigger warnin.



Where do demons go to rest? 

This night... 
This silence has no end. 

I see them now... 
The after-impressions the monstrosities leave in the air, 
Like the afterburn of a photo... 
Shredded clothes, 
Jagged teeth... 
Just behind me, 
Always moving... 
Fast as lightning. 

Some of the creatures i see clearly, 
Others through the cornees of my eyes... 
Others... 
Move in impressions. 

I seek my way further into the heart of darkness, 
I must see the true monsters... 
To see the abyss in its entirety. 

You think you know the darkness? 
The crawling,  shifting,  pulsing... 
Jittery-scritchy movements
And chattering and noises and white noise, 
In all the grey areas... 
The static,  the silence,  the noise behind the shower? 
That is there day or night, 
Always the creeping of distorted faces and creatures everywhere... 
Hiding knives everywhere in the fated hope that something, 
So useless... 
Will save us from beings that can be harmed by no blade. 
Inciting verses and symbols, 
Talismens and safeguards do not work... 
They are inside
And they are
Everywhere
And hungry
And murderous 
And here
Now
Now
Now here. 

The smallest of things can twist and warp, 
The smallest gears of the mind. 
A simple name... 

De Vermis mysteriis. 
And we bring the darkness through. 

Do you ever find yourself smiling upside down into a mirror? 
Don't... 
It traps your soul
And now all we say is this
Hahahahaha

Dont worry.. 
They are
Just getting me used to when these demons will ushur me sweetly into Hell. 

Doomed you see... 
Where do demons go when they're host is taken from them? 

To the Daughter...
