U2 vs Zedd Vs Qulinez- Troll's Year Clarity
The moon is silent.
It's okay
For I have been silent too.
The wolf no longer rests outside the door
It savages my heart
Rips at my soul
My mind
A clamored chaotic whirlwind
Slipping into madness
Prevented by
Gripping
A single truth
Or
Sinking in quicksand reality
Desperately grasping
A fiction
Named hope
Either way
The fabric tears
The thoughts, musings, and mind of Andy Galloway. So that and a nickel, at least gets you a nickel.

The ruddy little boy
Mashup - Queen + U2 - The Seas Have No Name
You the people have the power.
It ever was.
It ever shall be.
But it begins with the one
In
Hollywood its easy.
Captain Kirk
Captain America
Or
The ruddy little boy
Plain
Powerless
Dirty shirt torn
Rises
Before the bully
Smug and sullen
The boy has had enough
Fists
Of scared knuckles torn
Clutching nothing more than the truth
Whatever smile existed
Turned to a sneer
Despite fear
Despite the pain
Despite times struck down in the past
Through gritted teeth
Clenched Fists
Is that all you got?
Stare assures
Freedom and beauty will exist
Knock me down
I shall rise again
And
I might take you down
For
With the arrival of the dawn
Fear will die
Movement
Silent
From the corners they come
Steps slow
Fearful
Yet
Emboldened by the bravery
The defiance of the one
Denied too long the light
They joined
And the strength of the one
Became the strength
Of the many
With a hand outstretched
Join the revolution

Moonshadow
The soft
moonlight fell upon his aged face. He
smiled. He had been in the moonshadow
for too long. The light reminded
him. His lady’s touch, in the end had
finally arrived. If only to guide him
home. He didn’t care. For a moment, it justified him. It validated all. He felt the surge of strength flow through
his bones so brittle. Desperate muscles
relocated their strength. Renewed blood
filled his veins pumping life to every corner.
For a fraction, he was again complete.
That was all it took. He was
ready.
Cervantes
wouldn’t tell you that. He never really
new this man from La Mancha. This is due
in part to the fact that Cervantes had a job.
He wanted to paint the man a fool.
He wanted to point out his actions as sheer folly. In long laden sentences, he labored to
present the Don as a simpleton lost in his own grand vision of himself.
Alonso
however, always knew. He was always able
to see the truth, but fought desperately to see it his way. What would you have of him? Would you have a cracked landscape so baked
that it was colored with the blush of the setting sun, or a verdant land in
need only of a hero? Would you rather
have dilapidated windmills, or leviathan dragons. Natives made joyous at appearance of savior
Quixote, or bent and broken peasants whose laughter tore at the man who reached
out to make them more. What would you
have? He saw both worlds you know. Alonso Quixote forever walked the line. For him it was never a delusion, it was a
choice.
This was
especially true when it came to Dulcinea.
Cervantes laughed. He made much
of the fact that she was only the simple Aldonza Lorenzo, a plain farm girl. As low as the beasts she tended. How the readers would laugh. How they would herald Cervantes quick wit. It turns out Cervantes was the fool.
Quixote,
ever the man of secrets however, let Cervantes think what he wanted to. Quixote knew her. He knew that so many found her to be only a
simple farm girl. He would play the
fool, he would perpetuate the vision if only it would save Dulcinea. For he knew that sometimes Aldonza believed this
lie herself. Quixote would not allow for this to stand. One thing Quixote could never figure out
however, was is love the greatest deception of all… the greatest truth… or
both? Regardless, he loved Dulcinea not
only for herself, but more importantly in spite of herself.
She was the
moon that reflected that all that was best back. He did the same for her. But something happened. I don’t know what. Cervantes certainly didn’t know. But the face of Dulcinea’s moon turned away
from Quixote. He became lost in the
moonshadow. The void. No reflection. He could turn to the true dragons that lie in
reality, or continue his masquerade. As
he knew both worlds he chose to forge his own reality. He felt the bites, the ferocious stings of
reality, but he maintained. He would
yell at the darkness, only to have it yell back. All in the hopes to escape the surrounding
moon shadow.
Finally, on
that night, he was able to break from the darkness. Bathing in the respite of the sudden celestial
gift, he smiled as he gave his last breath.

Blame it on the moon
Her savage
beauty raw
Caught
In the
burning
Indecision
Of passion
My lips
trace
A heated
journey
Across
burning flesh
Elegant in
its soft
Beckon
As always
Your eyes
burn
As a turbulent
midnight sun
Waiting for
the one
To join you
on
The
tightrope balance
Between want
and desire
Simmering
thoughts furious
And your
savage beauty raw
Yet
Each teetering
step
Brings you
closer
Regardless
As she
reflects
The best of
you
Meeting your
mirror
As your
reflection reminds
Of all that
she is
Beyond
And all that
she is
In her
savage beauty raw

The beat
Madonna / Pitbull / Lady Gaga - You Know I Want Love Celebration [Robin Skouteris Mix]
Angels
Feathered Wings
Created the cloistered
Refuge to protect
The beat
Primordial
That had long
Smoldered in
Eyes half hidden
Allowing consumption by
His simmering desire
Voracious
Words
Pale prisons
Chaining
Chaffing
Action that
Burst the chains
Searing contact
Moving press
Heated caress
Desperate
To express
The glory
Of the two
The heated trace
Down her neck
As her skin rose
To meet his touch
Eyes closed
Not to forget
But to remember
Every sound
Every touch
To savor
Every sense
Of the experience
The pull of her hair
As bodies collapsed
One into the other
Melting into the beat
As the Angles above

Simple small
Mashup Germany My Bitter Cheap Symphony
Does she
know
Above all
It was
always in
The simple small
The hanging
laugh
Ending
sentences
Hoping to
linger
In the good
If only for
a moment
Dancing
eyes
Soft pierce
stare
Of all
Save the
other
Her soft
silence
The only
cry
That might
signify
So much good
All was
understood
A
fractioned moment of priceless trust
Sheltered
rest would always be held
The simple
Contact
hand in hand
For no
reason
Other than
the desire
Of union in
Simple safety
of
The simple
small
Does she
know
Above all
It was
always in
The simple small
The hanging
laugh
Ending
sentences
Hoping to
linger
In the good
If only for
a moment
Dancing
eyes
Soft pierce
stare
Drawing life
Calling invitation
For souls
To dance
Regardless
Of all
Save the
other
Her soft
silence
The only
cry
That might
signify
So much good
All was
understood
A
fractioned moment of priceless trust
Sheltered
rest would always be held
The simple
Contact
hand in hand
For no
reason
Other than
the desire
Felt friction assuring the reality
Of union in
Simple safety
of
The simple
small

The moment
The moment
Lady Gaga / Eurythmics / Enigma / Kazaky - Electric Rain
The moment
Of hesitation
That
Silent space
Universal pause
Exhausting pain
Deadening
In the wait
While
Fates at play
Or the distraction
Of the action
Does it wait?
To find if you are strong
If you belong
In your rise
Inconsiderate
Yet passionate
Defiant in
Consistent challenge
Earnest challenge
Demands
"Why do you wait?"
To an empty sky
Before the deluge
Creates a flood
Pouring
New life cascading
If one can only survive
The moment
of hesitation
