vulgar
down trodden hooker for need's sake
greedily feasting till the void within overshadows dignity
everyday seeking to feed the famine to assuage the hurt
inside the psyche a broken brain is to blame
seeking to understand the divine is implored
admonished to dig deeply and learn from the chains in place
sinking lower into a place of desolation
a surreal mind speaking madness causes poverty
the feeling of oppression is immeasurable
flitting from vice to vice to cure what ills
another day prostituting want, it's disturbing how low one can sink

How
On the steps
Sitting, musing
Reflecting.
How does one
Get so blown away
So tired of the world
So quickly?
Sitting, musing
Reflecting.
How does one
Get so blown away
So tired of the world
So quickly?

been traveling in
The deserts of a mind
try desperately
To run through the sand
How frustrating and
sooooooooo degrading the time
wasting away
huh (chuckles)
remember waking up
plastered and stumbling
A full night of gin,
pale sweat and ..... seduction
lit a match burned the whole place
to the fucking ground
In a ghost town paid symphony remember...........
the saying goes
An artist
should create beautiful things
"but
should put nothing
of ones own life into art
The deserts of a mind
try desperately
To run through the sand
How frustrating and
sooooooooo degrading the time
wasting away
huh (chuckles)

Every Step an Everest
Climbing slowly
out of hell
fist fighting anxiety
wrestling depression
mid consequential addiction's
Irresistible spell
Compassionate friends
able hands extending
no longer reach down to assist
exclaim in frustration
“this one is not changing”
summarily crossed-off life’s list
Enter the hero
by divine spark driven
filled with stuff of deity
power-lifts to safety
exhausted downtrodden
showing true love’s
unwavering loyalty
Who came to rescue,
supernatural power wielding?
one using inherited strength
from heaven brought nearer.
whose heroic visage
can be seen in the mirror
.
