My half is squirming again
Doubtful, a serpent prepared to strike A bargain between sanity and soul. Purge and be cleansed,
Kill to Live; not survive, remember Do not. Listen.
Lavender droplets, silver sky,
smoke and fire and wind and noise rain and rain and rain
heavy, heavy falling angels.
What is your beating heart telling you? “Suffer, for you have me”
I did not ask for it- Look at them again. Heavy falling angels

issue one.
Mae’r hanner yn gwingo eto
Amheus, sarff yn barod i daro
Bargen rhwng callineb ac enaid.
Carthu a chael dy lanhau,
Lladd i Fyw; dim i oroesi, cofia –
Peidiwch. Gwrando.
Defnynnau lafant, awyr arian,
mwg a thân a gwynt a sŵn –
glaw a glaw a glaw –
angylion trwm, trwm yn cwympo.
Beth mae dy galon curo yn ddweud wrthych?
“Diodde’, oherwydd mae gennyf i”
Wnes i ddim gofyn amdano –
Edrycha arnyn nhw eto.
Angylion sy’n cwympo’n drwm
