Tethered to the Well
I'm tethered to the well,
fall in whenever I need its pain
come out again and burn
die to remember why I'm alive.
At the bottom lives a fire
ignited by your skin and knives.
But you must surely come up
and the pressure pumps you out.
He is my muse, who's afraid of the dark
I know to be my savior.
He is afraid of being alone as I was
and I was just being myself.
No borders whenever I am.
No neatness wherever I am.
Break the world's skin
just by walking.

Odines curse.
Thirteen people lost their lives while laying of clouds of cotton and silk covers. Kissed goodnight only to never wake.
With all these snow White's around here it's almost comical.I can only shake my head just like they did before everything went numb.
Thumbs numb from playing COD. For three hours straight.You go to bed and that's that .
I just hope the Lord above won't call me home while I rest tonight.

No Other More Tolerant
Gold hues with soft laps from giving blue, spread out like fingers
lay a low calm whisper its serenity, whistling peace through leaf and tree
I have lived this, bear the mark-blood to soil
an arrow of rock stands in testament for mid-river fishing
the row gathers as netted vine captures bounty
so slow goes the bronzed one, setting fire upon glass
we breathe deep in silhouette watching the magma shine fall to the past
Blight borne of ignorance from smokestack lightning
carves desperation from new-found traditions
Pave the way...
lay a low calm whisper its serenity, whistling peace through leaf and tree
I have lived this, bear the mark-blood to soil
an arrow of rock stands in testament for mid-river fishing

so slow goes the bronzed one, setting fire upon glass
we breathe deep in silhouette watching the magma shine fall to the past
Blight borne of ignorance from smokestack lightning
carves desperation from new-found traditions

Treacherous delusions
She act untouchable in her delusions of grandeur but the kinks in her armor
are transparent. She lays wounded at the end of her own dagger
And needs not another drawn upon her in the slaughter
especially by a family member
or a significant other.
I did however came to find and did discover
Her heart and mind burned asunder
In the flame of her former lover.
I however, of her kin and kind was witness to her sin
and sinister grin
during the times of her crime time and again.

Sicko.
Shoot up,smoke up,drink up and shut up before I shut you down.
Brain dead and plugged in, just like that pussy when I find out which hospital they sent her to.
Round one,two and three right in the head and tummy. Pull a joker and steal a nurses scrubs after choking her out and walk out.
Scrubbing blood caked floors after I got carried away with my usual Friday night fling.
Time to fling her twitching person into the river and get ready for work.The Waynesboro River killer is still on the loose.
Loose pussy and a few light bulbs to help me...

Caught n another man's flower bed
I painted my walls with love letters from my own blood in hopes you would walk in and read them all.
When I had you I could crush this entire miserable planet.When you fled I wanted nothing more than death to take me.
My black rose had been growing in the garden of another.I could only admire you during the day.
So I cut you down in the dead of night while your keeper slept. Cut your stem and pluck every petal so I never have to ask if you love me or not.
Burned and buried you along side the gardener who fucked you into bloom.
I can't...

SEGMENTS OF LOST TIME
Its funny how what we once thought was going to be forever suddenly it becomes apart of our memories till they become apart of our inner imaginations locked away within the deepest part of our minds, even sometimes they have a way to invade your dreams at night bringing you a sleepless night of tears within your eyes giving you an overwhelming feeling that is even harder to explain as the hurt and pain digs deeper into your brain.

Keyboard Warrior
Sound bites. Word fights. Blue lights.
Words like hollow points that
pierce the mental membrane.
Load your keys and lay waste.
Cursing faceless names. Make
virtual wounds leak code blood.
Names with numbers, crush those
bots no matter what else.
Asymmetric warfare,
every target fair game.
Age is not a problem.
Crosshairs for the guiltless.
Any way to get that
social media murder.
When you’re on the side of
History, all’s good right? Yeah.
