When your eyes starts to bleed
and the blood trickles down your check
into the cracks that have come from age
and its slowly moves to the corner of your mouth
and you taste the warm salty sickness
you wipe the corner of your mouth
with the back of your hand
you start to whimper
a soft low whine
and wonder why
huddled in a fetal position
arms around your knees
blood dripping bruised and broken
wondering if this is my kind of madness
and the blood trickles down your check
into the cracks that have come from age
and its slowly moves to the corner of your mouth
and you taste the warm salty sickness
you wipe the corner of your mouth
with the back of your hand
you start to whimper
a soft low whine
and wonder why
huddled in a fetal position
arms around your knees
blood dripping bruised and broken
wondering if this is my kind of madness

My kind of Madness
I pray the hebrew word Selah, meaning
Be still praise God.
Goes unanswered.
Stillness unheard of in my manic mad mind.
Ramblingthoughtrunoneintotheotherramblingthrough my aching head.
Thoughts turn images of picking back up the bottle to numb my demons.
Unruly dancers in my thoughts they are.
I wonder how long i can white knuckle grasp holding onto self....
Oh please God, Selah! Hear me!
Can'tgobackcan'tgobackcan'tgoback!!!
Hell here, in my head and heavy soul.
Hell here in my heavy heart.

Be still praise God.

Hell here, in my head and heavy soul.
Hell here in my heavy heart.
My Kind Of Madness
Lurking and hiding
making himself known
Only and always when I was all alone
Certain fear was instilled on purpose
knowing I was and would be forever weak
He was the only one that made me a freak
Even though his version was the one I tried to make disappear
For I was the only he held dear
This is his sadness and yet its my madness
Once he left, his scars were too deep to be healed
That first taste of him, was all that needed to be revealed
Masterful madness crocheted into my mind
His webs have been spun
My soul has come undone
I once fell fiercely in love...

Hush
you awaited
prepared
for that sucker
punch
to rattle your
bones
into ashes and
smoke
elements you
put out
soaked in muddy
shores
another heart on
standby
while you flame the
kindle
buckle up and
hush
re-gifting life with
patches
walk the walk
not
talk the talk
crumple your
dreams
in a bucket list
scatter
the shreds in briny
tears
let it soak your
lonely grave
amongst
unknown peers
you awaited
prepared
for that sucker
punch
to rattle your
bones

My Kind Of Krazy
I sharpen my finger nails
because I have an itch I need to scratch
on somebody's neck.
I sharpen my teeth
because I am hungry
for respect.
Where can I find a good diner,
a place I can watch people eat?
I like to view my dinner discrete.
The happier they are, the tastier they are.
I'm the kind of krazy
that likes a little humanity
with his biscuits and gravy.
