All’s well

Affective measure your anti-force
Against disorder brought on by sins
Kisses of yesteryears
Brought forth to now
And its reckoning
Brought forward to this phase
You rang my bell once
As you pull the hearts string of others
Now you pay for it
Full measure and more

Misfortune you say comes
Un-beckoned uninvited
It smiles all the time
Preying on happiness
Preying on joyousness
Your joy in your love...
Once the fence is un-mended
It slips in and hold you
Pay in full your debt
To add on to your sorrow

The household you built
The family you brought up
Your pretty daughter
is a drug addict
Your handsome son
Died in a useless war
Your wife ran away with the postman
Depression loved you long and hard
Your house was auctioned
Your dog was run over by a truck

Kisses deep and lies thick
Those you told to acquire wealth
Selling land not yours to keep
Selling your soul to the lowest bidder
Now you stand all alone
Nothing, zero, zilch
Sad and sorry for life thrown away
No one sympathise not even me
For you have cheated many
In your stupid arrogance
You cheap politician.

Cool comp idea Kitty, thank you..Peace




I see you Bitch

I see you clearly
You're  one of a kind
Egocentric, apathetic
completely convinced-
in your twisted mind

Portray yourself
in that  phony light
let them be fooled
and believe  it's all right

Call me the nemesis
Refer to me as mad
I am the epitomy of
ALL you can't have

Hide behind the
ideas you present
I wont be there-
our time is spent

Superiority  is your  claim
to fame...
Bask in the limelight
you have no shame

When years have passed
and the rest have caught on-
your facade is transparent
and your fans long gone...

When  reality slaps
and  the truth is free...
I hope in despair-
you remember me





Twisted

A mind numbing escapade
What should hurt-
to you elates
A fire
The fuel for your core
The evil center
Their less-
your more
Standing on backs
or toes, or heads
As long as your way
is what it gets
Conjuring drama
to appeal and achieve
Grinning, indulging-
You watch them bleed....

Scheming, plotting
Cunning and cruel
Hiding your horns
in your coat of wool

Lend an ear
then break a back

Their pain replaces
the love you lack
