Treehouse

Died Alone

Metronomic waves on boards
ravelling her tattered chords
unknown days keep streaming by
eyeless sunrise round and high
feel no hunger cold sets in
his burnt and broadly peeling skin

Forgotten Sailor

Waiting

An incandescently brilliant attempt at conjuring Violet's ghost is the last thing he sought to do before the wind, blowing through slalactites and tunnels, turned his conquered soul to red dust, carrying away memories & regrets.
Late nights pining - some stirring of regret - and a cold apathy, gentle as the flit of a beetle's kiss.

INTELLIGENT 

Our love of Sci-Fi / Sci-FACT (!) & A shout-out to the very real & Terrifying implications of a Future Uprising of Artificial Intelligence.
Harkening back to '2001 - A Space Odyssey', Skynet, & a certain Animatronic Lass who Feels Fantastic, I feel certain that Stephen Hawking's warnings ought to be heeded:
What if they become ADVANCED?
💻🤖⚛👽📡👾🔬😨🔬👾📡👽⚛🤖💻
Hawking's warnings are ominous - physics brain synonymous.
Wipe-out humans (as we know it!) -- or maybe it's all "hyperbolic"?

What if they become advanced - 
"
"
replacing all of Earth's inhabitants?

Hawking's not alone in his fears -- these things scare other eminent engineers!
Terrifying visions of dominated years:
   Artificial eyes
      on
   Artificial people
      crying
   Artificial tears...

What if they become advanced - 
"
"
replacing all of Earth's inhabitants?

Humans who are limited couldn't have competed;
A.I.
takes off
&
Humans superseded! Superseeeeeeee...
    *DEAD*.

How THE OXFORD REVIEW germinated in the humblest of beginnings...

Long ago there was a frog - rather, a community of frogs, and they infiltrated the dreams of 2 separate but equally terrified children by using their amphbi-magick. Not only that, but when the children awoke, the frogs, through their hypnogogic powers of invisibility, would remain active and tactile whilst causing the children's parents to indicate (with a flourishing removal of the bed covers) that there was nothing there. But they WERE there, and this terror spawned a singular creativity /skewed perception of the physics of fauna for the aforementioned children. 
They had only to meet, years later, to recognise the mutual magickal experience between them. The collective unconsciousness and the residue of said experience was the catalyst necessary to loosen a floodgate of music and sync so glorious that is almost bittersweet, if not for the intervention of muses, similar in size and shape to the childhood frogs (curiously enough), who declared that the music is not bittersweet, but kismetic and karmic.
