Found Scrawled Across an Instrument of Occultic Practice

This astrolabe has measured out
My days in damned astrology
The turning of its golden hands
Riposte to pure theology

Pathetic Investigation

Let's investigate!
Pretend I'm trying to date,
All these guys!
Harassment! Lies!
What are joke, bitch!
I'm online,
Talking about you,
All the time!:

Detox and Discontent

You will not be getting any sympathy from me
Too late for that
Ignorance seen through your blind eyes
Cause & effect
Detox
Artificial promises
I'm feeling empty
Destroy reality
I crawl deep inside myself
Detox and discontent

Obelisks

Wintry tears drip deep
into icy, dark waters
The stream is endless,
as she came to me in the form of paradise

As I envisioned
I made a decision

Wisdom floats
as infinity awaits

The Sparrow

The bird camouflaged in the dust
unremarkable dun, though very bold
throws back his head
then out pours liquid gold

Checking Out

I can't think anymore
My head is a room swarming with cockroaches
Can you please exterminate me?

Evolutions

In a butcher and clockmaker tryst
their scion anon gave skills a twist
when gears put together
in slaughterhouse weather
made her a meaty-horologist.

Stunning out today
Let's randomly slay someone
Peace and love to you

Plotting her demise

I may kill my wife
she causes me pain & strife
tells me I can't write

How will it be done?
maybe a knife or a gun
once done, time to run

What's up?

I woke up,
In a sweaty fuck.
No condom.
So I'm out of luck.
I gave up.
Kept my mouth shut.
My imagination sucks.

So I farted.
The detective,
Puked his guts.
That's wassup.

Messenger at Night

In the dead of night
I guess I will never know
Caught within a dream
