Your Morning Metal (Daylight Dreamers)

Detail of cover art for 'No Exit' by Fates Warning (Metal Blade, 1988)

There is always hope.

Daylight dreamers awaken on deserts of desperation. Lonely lives learn to live on islands of isolation. Surrounded by violent oceans of hate and hopeless sorrows, daylight dreamers envision tranquil seas in safe tomorrows. Dreaming through the darkened day, along tempest-torn strands, desperately grasping the grains fo hope that flit through our hands. As they fall we tighten our hold while the waves claim the final few. Taken without ceremony, they drift out of view. Washed away with the tieds of time; slipped through our fingers as dreams do.

Your Morning Buggery

Detail of 'Bug Martini' by Adam Huber, 22 May 2015.Sometimes you just need filler for a post. Sometimes you like the idea of giving a thumbs-up to a repression-loving killbot, and want the image detail for some future occasion when it might come up. And, you know, sometimems you just want to chuckle at Kim Jong Bug-Un.

And sometimes it all works out perfectly in the end.
