“Spell Breaker” (Song)

By Athena Stairs, April 15, 2025

I’m not going anywhere
Pushed down to ground

By gales beyond control
Wild fires fiercely proud

Give me that sacred flame
Breaking curses that bound

These multiple years’ layers
Singeing wings into shrouds

Oh come at last consume me
Complete the process paused

Consecrate my soul as holy
To fly free again for cause

The world shall be our oyster
With love as its sacred pearl

As death gives up dominion
Wounds given grace to heal

“Western Horizons” (Song)

By Athena Stairs, April 15, 2025

There is something about
The breeze off the ocean

So raw in wild mystery it
Sets one’s soul in motion

The sun rises in the East
But always sets into West

Giving strong sense of home
Bones never forget nor regret

I suppose its the same anywhere
West side has certain impulsions

Different from any other direction
To those drawn by its compulsion

We feel it in thrums of heartbeats
And through wind-whistling calls

As the world spins ever onward
Compass needles’ pull enthralled

“Let It Slide” (Song)

By Athena Stairs, April 12, 2025

Wouldn’t it be wonderful
If it weren’t all downhill

From here as they say
Except if it gets easier?

On a day like today
When I am so tired

I wonder that I ever had
Energy that conquered

The blues and overcame
Despite hardship’s blame

Haven’t felt so exhausted
That I can ever remember

Like a soft blanket covering
Giving safety or strangling?

I guess I just need to sleep
But insomnia keeps peeked

The part of me looking out
For awaited homecomings

And if I knew what was enough
Well, I would try to give all of it

And if my chance got back its luck
Well then, I would have to go for it

But it’s just been kids and me
A mixture of human and furry

Maybe this is the quiet that comes
Before the next storm sets tumbling

Any sense of balance that I have
Thought I should keep acquiring
