Nightmare From Hell
In my nightmares
I see myself
pounding my oldest
brother's face into
the concrete to the
point where I can't stop
I wake up pissed off
At the whole freaking world
Taking my anger out
on everyone including
My famiy which
isn't good for my soul
I see myself
pounding my oldest
brother's face into
the concrete to the
point where I can't stop
I wake up pissed off
At the whole freaking world
Taking my anger out
on everyone including
My famiy which
isn't good for my soul

Light but dark
The morning sun
Was shining
Hope it would bring
To most
But not to the corpse
There in the ditch
Laying.
Was shining
Hope it would bring
To most
But not to the corpse
There in the ditch

peculiar home.
ashes and soot
swirling
throughout the air,
breezes
of burned remnants
whirling
untethered— unbound
floating
around
to finally
find
a
singular
quite specifically
peculiar
home
amidst all the
painful heartache;
bones
that will
surely
rebreak
when love's
cremated
remains....

Beksinski's Curse
I awaken with a sudden gasp,
As a silent scream escapes my lips.
My heart beats heavy in my chest:
A dream, into reality, slips.
The hairs are raised upon my back,
As my body aches with fright;
I sit there petrified, awake...
Alas! Another sleepless night.
I cannot sleep in peace, it seems,
As I'm haunted by these hellish scenes,
That creep into my deepest dreams,
And tear me at my weakest seams.
And so, I paint the perfect picture,
Like a photograph for the world to...
As a silent scream escapes my lips.
My heart beats heavy in my chest:
A dream, into reality, slips.
The hairs are raised upon my back,
As my body aches with fright;
I sit there petrified, awake...
Alas! Another sleepless night.
I cannot sleep in peace, it seems,
As I'm haunted by these hellish scenes,
That creep into my deepest dreams,
And tear me at my weakest seams.
And so, I paint the perfect picture,
Like a photograph for the world to...

Not A Rap
This is not a rap
It's not a rap
Yeah, you wanna rap
I know you wanna rap
Rap me on the head
With something you got
Lying in your toolshed
You treat me like
I'm some old hag
Then you try to use me
For a punching bag
You're the worse man
That I ever had
You wanna rap
You dirty rat
This is not a rap
We, no we don't rap
you wanna hit me
With a baseball bat
but you can't
I'm tired...
It's not a rap
Yeah, you wanna rap
I know you wanna rap
Rap me on the head
With something you got
Lying in your toolshed
You treat me like
I'm some old hag
Then you try to use me
For a punching bag
You're the worse man
That I ever had
You wanna rap
You dirty rat
This is not a rap

you wanna hit me
With a baseball bat
but you can't
I'm tired...

Roux to You Too!
A pale roux of dead.
Its fatty content mixed with bread.
A poisonous dough floured with lead.
Kneaded and crafted so you’d be dead.
Your loathsome head and vile bust,
Turned to ashes then to dust.
Words of lust morphed into pleas
Stop. Don’t bother they’ll annoy the fleas.
Selfish and thoughtless, no larger crime,
When confused with love will turn on a dime.
You gave it your best ‘twas not enough.
Can’t wait to bury your memory and stuff.
Your come on’s at present,
Alluring at best.

When demons come to call
When demons come to call
Always when you're by yourself, quite often late at night, when darkness is all around you and it seems a endless night
You feel a dark surround you, it wraps you in its cloak, suffering with depression, really is no joke
The pain of hurt crushes you, memories flood your brain, all the sadness turns to tears, you want to stop the pain
Tears roll down your face, you're hurt and all alone, even though you know theres help always on the phone
You pull the covers over you, you try to hide your head, anything to chase...

beautiful people
Beautiful people may well know defeat,
And suffering, and struggle, and sheer loss,
But they will find their way out of the depths.
These people can appreciate and beat
An understanding of life, that may toss
Compassion in with tears which, yes, once slept.
As does a gentle, deep loving, replete
With sensitivity; concerns at cost
Are put in place: impossibly bereft.
The idea of a humane world may seat
The warring parties, who have raped and crossed
Their Rubicon, with pain so unexpressed.

GETTING ON MY LAST NERVE
What is it about the darkness that makes sense to the spirit of the soul, as it affects the feelings of being trap within an realm of low self-esteem, to the point you feel unwanted and unloved and unworthy. As it comes to the very existences of the demons within your subconsciousness, that creeps and roams through the dead of the night. For it is said that we each have our own demons that walk, through the stairways and gateways of our most private and deepest thoughts.That appears from out of the depth of the darkness that sometimes controls, the very existences of our heart and soul and...

pale kisses (with respect to Louise Gluck)
in this season,
season of decay.
when all the leaves
have fallen,
fallen all away.
cold blue death will
come,
come to pull life away.
love will be forever gone,
gone with the pale kiss
of death to stay.
season of decay.
when all the leaves
have fallen,
fallen all away.
cold blue death will
come,
come to pull life away.
love will be forever gone,
gone with the pale kiss
of death to stay.
