Angel Slayer

Published on Mar 9 2010 at 11:28 CST
Written by Abracadabra

I cut out the angel's heart
and held its throb in my hand
it made that cute soft squidgy sound
a cross between a gurgle and a murmur
like a bloody red hummingbird
just another notch in the darkness
feebly beating its wings one last time
a bit sticky but all in a night's work

My blood has always been the purest black
I take pride in my job
and the intensity of my own hatred
for these so called soldiers of God
is grosser than the ego of the fattest poet mortal

I guess it's a talent
something I was born with
...

Brink of Sanity

Published on Mar 9 2010 at 9:47 CST
Written by Arryn

I saw a man today -
I think he was crazy.
He was smoking indoors,
(which is illegal)
and was staring maliciously
at little girls.
I imagined him decapitated,
with his entrails hanging out.

I saw a lady today -
I think she was crazy.
She wore a long gypsy skirt
and walked around the streets,
opening car doors and hooting;
I think she liked the sound.
I watched her being ravaged
after which her throat was slit.

I saw a child today -
I think he was crazy.
He jumped in front
of my car as I drove
and...

Death

Published on Mar 9 2010 at 8:29 CST
Written by dheerkaku

its just a word, so is life, so is god,
you will live, you will die, but you will not forget,
forget, what they told you,
see, what they did not,
unlearn,
don't pray,
say, whats comes to your mind,
listen as they cry, its just a word, so is smile, so is pain,
slit my throat,
don't tell stories of the dead,
forget,
what is right, its just a word, so is wrong, so is ok,
feel,
don't think,
what is it, think why,
i want you to believe,
there is no other way,
you will die, but you will not forget.

Dance of the Deadly

Published on Mar 8 2010 at 18:15 CST
Written by Abyssal_Nightshade

Allow me to die,
Alone and no care.
Swallow the pride,
Give into greed-
All that needs to be.

Strike the fear,
Crush the weak,
Slay them all,
Past the silent gallows we march.

Stitch me together,
Everyone and lies
Choke on your pride,
For envy's sake-
All that should be.

Strike the fear,
Crush the weak,
Slay them all,
The shrieking guillotine we wait.

Hush!
Silence.
What's there to say?
Leave no survivors,
Kill them all!

Strike the fear,
Crush the weak,
Slay them all....

Rose Red

Published on Mar 8 2010 at 18:14 CST
Written by Abyssal_Nightshade

Bone snap bleach white
Rose red Rose red
Leave them dead again.

Broken glass crash
Open scabs upon the world
Rose red Rose red
Leave them dead again.

The globe, your oyster
Rose red Rose red
Let them rise again
Let them rise again.

Pool of splatter
None on the ladder
Paint to stain
None to remain
Rose red Rose red
Let your petals drop
Let your petals drop.

Step lightly gorgeous flower
Watch your petals fall,
Into the liquid red.
Rose oh Rose
Let them rest again.

How Cryosurgery is Performed on a Living Heart

Published on Mar 8 2010 at 14:32 CST
Written by heterodynemind

When someone you loved very much dies, strange things
Start to happen to you, that you don't notice right away:
The hologram that their influence built around you
Turns inside-out; the bulk of it shrinks down
Into one of those super-dense singularities.
Their belongings start to feel impersonal and oddly distant;
Reminiscent of a strangers bags, sitting packed for the departure.
All the love and caring is siphoned out
When the owner leaves existence behind:
The void they left fills with a surreal grace, when viewed
From the novelty of their...

Suicide

Published on Mar 8 2010 at 13:17 CST
Written by .dying.inside. (imnotapotato)

This is what it comes down to.
The end of it all.
When you stand on the edge of the cliff.
When you hold the shotgun to your head.
When the bottle of pills is sitting in your mouth.
When you put the rope around your neck.
When you slip under the water.
It will end.
Out of life, you escaped.
You ran from it all.
No more drama.
No more bills.
No more food.
No more children.
No more life.
Just floating black oblivion.
No feeling, no consciousness.
Just numbness.
Cold and broken.
Like my heart.
A heart that will...

Poet Killer

Published on Mar 8 2010 at 3:51 CST
Written by Abracadabra

Who needs vanilla when you're a killer
so swallow this
these words smell of blood
and it's yours, not mine

Surprise, surprise
that steamy carcass
opened up and festooned with flies
raw guts draped all over the page
that's yours too

The trail's alive
and it's filthy hand
is leading you
all the way
reaching down
to death's door

I'm gonna nail you
by your skull sockets
pin you up
and watch you squirm

See
I'm already inside
you're starting to feel my dirty
yum yum worms ...

when will it ever end help me

Published on Mar 7 2010 at 23:58 CST
Written by black-roses

a tub full of blood. . .
every thing remains the same
me next to a knife
my arm covered in blood
my father

beating me. . .
leaving me alone. . .
covered in bruises

hurt. . .

why is he doing this
why is he hurting me
what did i do wrong
i just wanted to let my anger out
somehow. . .
some way. . .

but every thing has gotten worse. . .
ever since he left me
crying my eyes out. . .
on the side of the rode

he used me
and im being punished for it

leave me

Published on Mar 7 2010 at 23:46 CST
Written by black-roses

am i who i think i am?
leave me
see no more

i lying on the floor
spilling my heart on the floor
spelling your name

i thought i was done with this
with you

all i could say or do
was cutt and bleed
leave me

can you see
the real me
who am i
what do i look like
am i beatiful
i dont know
i never saw anything real

all i know is lies
truth told to be a lie
known as a screamer
faced as a whisperer

leave me
at once
bur before you do
who am i
what do i look like
am i beatiful

A million face turn

Published on Mar 7 2010 at 22:21 CST
Written by Dennis Sun (DropsOfInk)

A million faces turn
A million different ways.
I am trapped inside the swarm
Just to be whirled away.

A million faces watch
With two million judging eyes;
A billion mental knots
Tied by billions of haunting lies.

A billion dollars spent
On an trivial campaign;
A trillion flyers went
And melted in the rain.

A trillion stars speck the sky
No more unique than you and I
Not even a googol of stars defy
That one day everything will die.

I Have a Tattoo of You in My Heart

Published on Mar 7 2010 at 21:46 CST
Written by heterodynemind

I have a tattoo of you in my heart-
no one else can see it,
but it's right there on the inside.
If I concentrate, I can almost feel it:
A peculiar raised rawness,
like a cattle brand might leave;
the nerves all burnt and exposed,
as if singed by a sadistic cigarette wielder.

Funny thing is, I don't remember signing up for a tattoo
Though I do recall a lot of pain, one night;
remember thinking, I wasn't going to make it
through till the sunrise;
doesn't the worst pain always come
in the blackness before dawn,
and I was surprised to...

Bleeding Disguises

Published on Mar 7 2010 at 20:13 CST
Written by Somewhere_Somehow

Gloves devour my hands,
The growing fear in your eyes danced.
An evil smile fumbles across my lips,
I see through my parent's fibs.
The knife digs into the corner of your eye,
I"m giving you no time for a goodbye.
Etches its way down your cheek,
A loving family is all i seek.
It stops at the side of your jaw,
This is where the mouth meets the claw.
I rip the skin so it shows your bloody bones,
The symbol of my better clones.
Ripping, tearing, peeling off your face.
The world sees me as a disgrace.
Killing this generation...

There, there,

Published on Mar 7 2010 at 0:47 CST
Written by Patrick Birdener (patrickbirdener)

There, there, honey bear. Let's
look like rain.
We'll kiss the ground
and caress the truth
to find out if the future
is or isn't.

Hush, hush, dear one.
Can you hear the gentle wind?
It brushes a tear drop from your eye,
and tousles your hair, and tries
to gently wash away the troubles on your mind.
It loves you today of all days.

You are its kind, now.

Tut, tut, little one.
Let's make like blooming rose petals.
Life was broken,
and dry as baked earth

until now.

Insomnia Reconstructed

Published on Mar 6 2010 at 19:56 CST
Written by heterodynemind

Insomnia reminds us of how the world gets demolished
And the too-sharp corners rounded off
During the time we normally would be sleeping.

At 12 a.m, we hear the sick baby screaming
But by 2, the sound is growing weaker;
And there are only mewling noises after that;
While It's mother hopes that perhaps sleep is coming finally.

At 2 a.m, the serial killer has grown tired
Of toying with his latest catch
And he finishes them off then, and falls asleep soundly
To his favorite lullaby, the drip-dropping
Of the last...

Why do I feel so hollow

Published on Mar 6 2010 at 19:55 CST
Written by heterodynemind

Why do I feel so hollow;
Point? What's the point; 38, 44
Minutes from now, will I still be the same person?
Should I start to plan my exit;
Wounds are only temporary, they always say
Though it seemed like such a small thing, my entrance;
Wounds always end up hurting others more.

I used to drown my troubles in drink;
Antifreeze must run through my veins, by now.
I want to keep on breathing;
Exhaust; exhausted is my hope
My heart feels like a brick;
On the accelerator, my life depends
Up just ahead, there is a bridge;
Jump!...

Good-bye

Published on Mar 6 2010 at 18:07 CST
Written by Princess Britton (XxDark_AngelxX)

Tears of pain and tears of sarrow,
tears for a life that has no tomarrow.
Wipe the tears from your face,
she's now in a better place.\And just as a tear is joined by friends,
so was she, it's not the end.
You'll see her in your memory,
laughing, maybe yelling too.
And you'll know she left you to survive the flood
from the tears that flow, since she went above.

A winters Moon

Published on Mar 6 2010 at 18:06 CST
Written by Princess Britton (XxDark_AngelxX)

Under a winter's moon light glowing brightly upon
the snow-covered field. Aglow with dark
contrasting hues from houses and
tree cast shadows. A mixed scape between the
bright white drifts of the shape shifting snow.
As sand dunes do appear; Only these are made from
water ice. As the wind blows it lifts blue and silver
silty grains of ice that sparkle like stars above in
the lunar light. Layed upon this surface so bright

Rainbow Of Poison

Published on Mar 5 2010 at 15:20 CST
Written by GlennMcCrary

Clouds of acid burn my skin with raindrops Eyes full of hatred stare at me as I walk I’m offered temporary relief so I take my chances I know my limits so I don’t have to worry about Doing those weird little dances I open up a bathroom drawer grab a couple of razor blades Then slit my wrists aggressively as I slowly cried out in pain I let the blood run It brought a smile to my face It reminded me of black rain The warmth of it on my skin I started to embrace I can hear the pounding of crimson hearts As they fall before...
