From flaky Missiles
1.
The heirs of this house
are shrined ruffled relics
love never lost the ardor
a narcissus
may
never
loose scent
She hides in old pockets
where snippets wander
wonder unveiled
2.
a pearlescent hand to reach out
he loves me when I dance to his strings
tightening each cord to walk on
knowing I will never reach an end
I...

Love Letter From Afar
Tempted am I to enter the portal of my past
I know there will be pain, I just don't know how long it will last
But there are better times to be had, other than here and now
Times when decisions could had been made leading to me here right now
A left turn instead of a right, a no instead of a yes at good night
Walking away from this one, tonight let them have the fight
Giving up those keys instead of swearing I'm okay to drive
texting on that cellphone and not realizing I'm lucky to be alive
Staying up in there balls deep when I swore that I...

Intersecting Sage
I was standing on the corner of Always Last and First
And I found myself watching a procession following three hearses
I find myself here at this intersection, in the middle of nothing, a sagebrush
Capable of with standing the harshness of anything, yet vunerable to the slightest touch
Sun parched by day, yet enduring the fridgid temperatures of my nights
I've been treated like this all of my life so this makes everything seems alright
This ground that surrounds me remind of the terrain of my heart and mind
Each within the first two hearse, caskets...

Patience
I can see you seek me to acknowledge you, why so eager for me to see you?
Eager to prove me wrong?
How sweet, but you can be whomever this is to the others. Play them like fools who witness a different person everytime.
A person whom is more presentable and likeable than who I know you are.
I suppose it would be important to get the one person who has seen the real you to be just as fooled as the rest who believe this whole facade from the start.
The person who's witness the you that you desperately want to prove as better person than...

predator
sunk low in the unbearable abyss
avoiding the unknown,
what lies ahead in the mist,
waiting in the dark for someone carrying gifts
the time is neverending
holding fake smiles,
within the blending
wearing certain materials
keeping up his appearances to be perceived as threatening
written out scripts to perform
flaunting their perfume already worn
dreamy eyes to compel,
hiding the scars that had been torn
oblivious to believe this was how he was born,
shunning away of his truest form
...

A tale of sleep paralysis
Let us pray for the daylights shield out of fear of nighttime’s sword. J.I.G…..
};;;;;;;;}(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((>
After I liiedown and pray for forgiveness and assistance that never comes.
I begin floating into divine warmth and comforting clouds. Sleep should be a well recognized feeling person to person.But it’s a feeling well served and well deserved for all.
fucking Bathed in Egyptian cotton naked While The hour glass of today becomes slowly ignored.
And My body’s destruction is not forgotten
but restored.
My exhausted rest.

My Blood Donor
Ticking it wall clock
Right behind your front door knock knock
Dwelling in my misfortunes
A path on which I was trading is filled with these potholes
While I went solo
My self esteem is so low
Am dropping next bus stop
My luck's running out nonstop
Explaining why I was such a flop
God! So pessimistic, I can't bear this hold up
Feeling so high yesterday, it's all Disney in Sydney
Today all of a sudden it turns out a house of terror
Stranded forever in this loop hole
For what am saying is no...
Right behind your front door knock knock
Dwelling in my misfortunes
A path on which I was trading is filled with these potholes
While I went solo
My self esteem is so low
Am dropping next bus stop
My luck's running out nonstop

God! So pessimistic, I can't bear this hold up
Feeling so high yesterday, it's all Disney in Sydney

Stranded forever in this loop hole

Cursed Dream
She told me to give her my soul and I’d indulge
In all the pleasures I could ever fathom
So I surrendered all will and control
Then she pushed me into the chasm…
In the catacombs of writhing naked bodies
Taut yet decrepit by time and misery
The stench of lust and decay aroused us
Merged with a rapture that was new to me
Maledictus, the faceless voices whispered
Echoing through the caverns of my mind
Maledictus, they repeated over and over again
Sending shivers up and down my spine
And the sounds of anguish, wails...
In all the pleasures I could ever fathom
So I surrendered all will and control
Then she pushed me into the chasm…
In the catacombs of writhing naked bodies
Taut yet decrepit by time and misery

Wendy Suicide
I've always found my name a bit funny
Wendy Sue
kind of farm girl-ish
not former city sophisticate of priviledge
who was supposed to be rich all her life
but now works 50 plus hour weeks
with constant stress
and financial worry
thoughts of suicide have a dark, greasy romance
ew, not sure where that came from
but they are romantic ideed
it's like one is leaving for an exotic journey
that even the most competitive traveler can't top
(I once saw a great title from The Onion: Six Day Visit to Remote African...

Mother
You scream to me, yet I hear nothing.
Didn't I warn you what was going to happen, what the future held onto till now.
You thought with time, you'd be relinquished of any responsibility for your choices.
Your willingness to deceive and your raging gluttonous actions from before rear on such a day.
The day I get to watch your false stability shatter to pieces with my expected celebration of your consequences catching you in state of nothing for years.
Your ripples have turned to massive waves to drown you amoungst the detachment I've felt...

Unwanted Ice Cream
Yeah I like when she licks my ice cream, licks my ice cream
Yeah I like when she licks my ice cream, licks my ice cream
An unwanted pregnancy aborted walking along the streets of the dead
No one will have me, all other gates were locked to what I said
I pleaded and begged, I had the right to more than a place to rest my head
But because of how they discarded me, my innocence had already been shed
An unclaimed soul discarded into limbo, still unwanted and thrown fucking up
This was when I realized that even eternity can be corrupt
Decisions...

Entity
Awoken in the darkness of your room, you sought to commune with me.
So you decided to summon me without precautions.
Seeking to pierce the veil of the void to call out for me to become present before your very eyes.
To gaze upon me, for you can not do so otherwise in any other state.
The desperation and longing for a peek, for yourself the opportunity to speak.
I could feel that desperation reeking off of you without actually letting you see me.
Instead you got the formless entity, one that stared right through you.
...
