horizon gone godless

post-bhaal part one of three 800 words blood/gore cw

You die.

You wake.

You remember.

In a pool of blood (fathoms deep, an ancestral memory made flesh) you open your eyes, and for the first time in your ruinedruptured memory, you are—

—quiet.

At peace.

Empty.

Your first thought is

(absence)

Where?

(nightsinger is this your hand)

And then: how?

Blood surrounds you: soaks your hair your skin your hands. It seeps sticky into your mouth and clings to your armour, and as you sit up it cascades from you in glistening strings.

You are

(alone)

you are

(lost)

you are

alive.

You open your mouth, tasting gore, and you say

(Father)

help me

(forgive me)

someone tell me

what have I done

(what have I become)

and the voice that speaks before you can is familiar (all of it so familiar) and comforting and feels

(faithless, godless)

like

(Father)

something old something missing something lost in the rubble of your skull.

Your sister(sisterniece how many times removed how many times your own) lies on her back. The butler (vile, wretched, and it isn't your Father that makes you want to show teeth at the sight of the ruined corpse) lies opened beside her, a family portrait missing only one.

On your knees.

On your knees in the blood you wait, you listen (you pray):

(FatherFatherFather)

He talks, your newfather your notfather your notgod, and his words are kind but

all the powers of life and death

(blood in my veins notmine notHis not this)

you can't hear them over the emptiness in your head, the chasm between you. Nothing left but a tadpole nest and a silence that threatens to swallow you whole.

(Father I’m sorry)

Boots splash in the blood: hands touch your cheek, and come away stained. Your skin, metal and flesh, dyed crimson. The warmth doesn’t reach far enough down, down to where you

(pleasepleaseplease)

drown, the light above ever out of reach, but still those hands

(take it back take it back take it back)

hold you close, hold you still. Voices echo, in the cavern of stone and blood that is your chest (this temple, a sense memory, your body turned outwards), calling for you. Begging you to return.

Tiavyn—

(Father)

—can you hear me—

(can you hear me)

—please?

(please)

When you turn, mismatched eyes stare into yours. Scarred hands warm and wet and sticky on your cheeks, tipping your head like he can rattle you back to yourself. He's on his knees in the blood

(in your blood

in your Father's blood)

just like you, just like (all of you). Your tongue is heavy, corpse-swollen half-rotted in your mouth. Words squirm from your grasp, slick and bloodstained, your jaw locked-shut-muzzled. Your lips (split) (bleed) pull back, emptiness eating you from inside out, and for the first time in over a century—

—silence falls.

You slump, let him (himhimhim, Father forgive me I love him and it hurts) take your weight, brace himself (knees slipping in the blood) against you, your weight, your armour, the sin and sinew of you. His hands spread over your shoulders; tilt your head, lean into him, his skin, his warmth, his

name His name His name

breath hot against your cheek.

And still, your newgod (newFather neverFather) talks

(who hath challenged a god)

(I never wanted)

(and liveth to tell of it)

(I never wanted)

and still, the hands on you are gentle

(can you hear me, love)

and still, the emptiness inside consumes you.

Turn your heavy head and meet his eyes. See the way he looks at you, holds you tight like he lost you, like he loves you.

Try to remember his name, drag your filthy bloodstained claws through the ruin of your memory, through two deaths and countless almosts, and come up empty.

All you know is that his hands are warm on your skin, and you are so so cold. All you know is that he looks at you with pride and concern, and you warrant neither. All you know is—

“It was peaceful,”

your tongue fumbling the words, your hands shaking, and you look up at the God who stands over you and you saypleadpray:

“I just want to rest.”

And, merciless as any other, your new God looks down on you (your lover's hands tighten on you) and he says: “There is no true rest for those like thee,

faithless”

(faithless)

(searing through you

faithless godless nothing nothing nothing)

and his next words are almost lost, a hand reached down into the dark where you

drown.

“But when victory is won I swear I shall find thee a home,” and the hands on your neck are warm and careful and the emptiness in your skull eases, and out of the dark and the fog and the bloodbloodblood you close your hands on a name and a feeling.

Jaan

Wo jaan meri jaan ban gayi, bus ek nazar jo usne mujhe dekha

Wo nazro se meri ruh lut le gaye aur ek labo pe muskan chod gaye

Fathers and Sons: Part 1

Fathers and Sons: Part 1

Photo by Conner Baker on Unsplash

Sitting on the porch, rocking back and forth, I reflect upon the birth of my sons. It feels like yesterday. Just a moment ago. And, then, flash, I am 46, they are 20, and 16. What happened?

Life happened.

Growing up in Los Angeles was for a long time something that I took for granted. I remember the first time I traveled across the country, via car. I…

Hearing Things?

This is more a recent realisation:

9 months in and you'd think you get used to the uncomfortable, piercing sound of your baby crying...

Yet it's worse than ever, so much so, that now I am constantly hearing him distraught even when I know he is sound asleep.

I guess this is normal? Actually in my world, apparently nothing is normal, go figure..

Anyone else??

P.s. the time is currently 1.53am GMT

Louis Vuitton and Scarves

I’m not sure if that title made you want to click or roll your eyes but let me give you some backstory. Brett Frizzell, one of my best friends in the world, passed away last year. He was one of the most positive people I knew. He was from Los Angeles and was all about spreading cool beach vibes. One day to playfully make a point he told my wife, “it isn't always Louis Vuitton and Scarves”. That was his humorous way of informing her that life isn't always a good time. That is exactly how I’m feeling about parenting the last few days. It has been quite the challenge. I recently sent my friend who is an expecting father for the first time a book. I decided maybe I should read one too and I’ve been practicing patience and better approaches to certain reactions from my kids. The issue is that they aren't reading and practicing new approaches to me. Can you see the conflict there? I’m actually looking into a theory that they know I’m trying to be patient and are acting extra aggressive to push me. You ever considered fighting a 2 year old? I was THIS CLOSE. What makes it more frustrating is that they will do something totally adorable the next moment but I’m too petty to acknowledge it. Tomorrow is Pizza Friday though so I expect better behavior. I think....

First

I have not use this platform for a very long time as I don’t find a reason to. But hey life always present you with surprises. 

So... my daughter was born about roughly a month ago. Love her to death. Cute as fuck. Dramatic too. Ha! 

So this blog, it is a place where I can share how i truly feel about this whole journey. Because being a father, it is like a mandatory to be strong physically and mentally. As if you are prepared to take on the world. 

I am not sure who will read this. I apologize in advance if my English is not up to  standard or the usage of explicit words. But hey i am trying to write my honest feelings here and not trying submit school essays for grades. 

So without further ado, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the Perspective of a New and Under Prepared Father.

Sorry for the lack of posts, but August has been a bit of a hectic one. Spent some time away from the workshop, but I’m back now, slowly digesting the amazing new @toolmusic Album, and wondering if Danny Carey really does only has 4 limbs like the rest of us mere mortals. • Here’s just a small example of the lovely guitars that have passed through the workshop in the last 4 weeks or so.... and the final picture is the glorious reason for the extended period of ‘radio silence’ 👶😍 • • • #theeastbourneguitarworkshop #newfather #tegw #guitarworkshop #guitarrepairs #fretwork #fretdress #fretdoctor #guitarrepairshop #guitartech #luthier #guitarsetup #guitar #guitars #guitarist #guitarstrings #gibson #gibsonguitars #gibsonguitar #prs #prsguitar #fender #fenderguitar #fenderguitars #lespaul #guitarsarebetter #rockstarguitar #gearybusey #guitarsdaily #geartalk #guitarspotter (at The Eastbourne Guitar Workshop) https://www.instagram.com/p/B19NrY_Hody/?igshid=8a1qbqtu7am8

Ek masoom si nigaho ne mujhe iss tarah dekha 

Ki duniya dekh baithne ka gurur humse chin liya

Wo roshni dekhke musmusaati  nazre jab pehli bar mujhse takrayi

Duniya ka sabse bade ajoobe ko samne dekha

Kabhi lagta hai khuda ne mere khwabo ko tarashke bheja ho use

kabhi apni kabiliyat pe shak hota hai use dekhke

un chote hatho ne jab meri ungli pakadi 

meri ruh ko chukar meri zingadi may rang bhar gayi
