And he was
Dark's regret
The longing of what life
should have been
Beneath the pressure
of the writer's pen
I felt the growing
sadness
Sleeping in a morbid
display
Of the pendulum that
was his way
Showing me his melancholia
ways, thinking about
how he could digest
my inner sins
Without a sound
Loneliness was him
And he was...lonely
The longing of what life
should have been
Beneath the pressure
of the writer's pen
I felt the growing
sadness
Sleeping in a morbid
display
Of the pendulum that
was his way
Showing me his melancholia
ways, thinking about
how he could digest
my inner sins
Without a sound
Loneliness was him
And he was...lonely

Unseen (acrostic)
13/31
Untapped, with the remains still capped, that well of feelings
Nestles, butterfly wings yet to waken, trapped within the chrysalis
Sleeping, dormant, awaiting the first dawn of beating
Emerging from the dark-age of dismissiveness
Eking out the time, blinkers that deleted
Night-times caverns dressed, with visions bright new mistresses
Untapped, with the remains still capped, that well of feelings
Nestles, butterfly wings yet to waken, trapped within the chrysalis
Sleeping, dormant, awaiting the first dawn of beating
Emerging from the dark-age of dismissiveness
Eking out the time, blinkers that deleted
Night-times caverns dressed, with visions bright new mistresses

The night. (Nightwish reimagined)
Images captured
Configurations, recalibrated.
People look so fine.
Such elegance.
Now to keep, their bodies.
In sleep.
The blackest deep.
Finding ugly.
Victims that weep.
Obsession.
Sore skin.
Scabbing cuts.
Splitting.
Oozing.
Washing filth.
Salt stings.
Dripping, running.
Pulling hard.
Out of breathe.
Eyes realigned.
Red raw in dirt stained mirrors.
Crying.
Complete fragility.
Habitual loathing.
Smearing pictures.
Licking fingers. ...

Dreading to come home
Although the dog licks your face
No place more lonely

Showtime
I get paid to watch Hulu and
HBO Max all day in a top
floor office with
balcony
access
when you care what
people think, it just
doesn’t work out
caring what people thought got
you a job at the same company
for 40 years after which your
pension gets taken away
because the CEO was
a greedy sex
fiend
sitting on that corporate
toilet for the third time
that day because you
thought that bacon
avocado spinach
wrap was a
full on
shit
yes,...

How to Completely Destroy a Battered Black Nation from within Its Borders Using Ethnic-cum-Religious Divide
Use a tsunami.
This country will be drowned
Not by falling into a river
But by staying submerged in it.
What we have is not a river.
The chaoses are a tsunami.
The elitist treachery of our governments
Are bearing monstrous fruits.
Far reaching fruits making
The news from:
North
East
West and
South!
There is no language
I have not learned to pray in.
Because we are now
To learn to shoot again;
To join the vigilantes
In chasing savage bloody herders
Out of our forests.
So...
This country will be drowned
Not by falling into a river

Out of our forests.

Sinister Love
I was cooking sticky rice
Some fell on my hand
An instant feeling of you
A beautiful pain ...
I wanted that for you too
As an act of love
What else could it be?
But love ...
Some fell on my hand
An instant feeling of you
A beautiful pain ...
I wanted that for you too
As an act of love
What else could it be?
But love ...

American gods (+) Stygian Wave Forms
American gods
Aspiring gods.
The outer limits.
A famed forest.
Light (+) Shadows.
Stygian wave form.
A ritual written.
Channeled (+) Transmitted.
The forbidden.
Haze smoke/3am air.
Four alien eyes.
The path is there.
A dark thought.
Ocular surface -
And into the mind.
The daring of youth -
(+) the quest for truth.
Breaking away and breaking free -
Of this plastic superficial society.
