Thank you

I watch drama movies
so as to educate myself
to what fear, pain
and inner terror
really mean.  
So I'd recognise them  
when they come,
If they come.  
 
After all
my life has always been
a perfect highway.

Message to the Upbringing
     You provoke me to think
     You provoke me to listen
     You provoke me to bleed in sky-flames of ambition

I have come farther, but the Orange Grain
came without me,
and the Silver Stem requested my praise,
I chuckled in sarcasm,
then left her to squirm among her dog stars for the rest
 of her pawless days.

my past kingdoms begged for at least a drop of
  her percipitation, but she never rained
This drought, upbringer,
I'm the cactus of reprisal
Your desert Pigs drowned us out
You're the waterless scandal of life

I give you until after you read to this to consume yourself
Also, I want you to know that you have blindly provoked
  me to know that,  
                  your game was pain and all I knew was to
                  think to think again that was Saw was to
                                  Seem.
 Thank you, my
              faultless asinines

“More Than I Hate”

Rich dichotomy of poor values,
opposites attracted indeed.
I dreamt a yin yang syndrome,
never seemed to get it right.
One had values, the other screwed
my high school chum, never came clean.
Denial was her best friend, my worst enemy.
I fought the realities in a haze of fighting anger,
fueled by ethanol, illicit things comforted the sting.
I was insane before I was born.  
Finally, I came of age eons away,
left it all behind me,
it was better that way.
Through the hard knocks
of on-the-edge living,
I taught myself better lessons,
now, I love more than I hate.
Life is great!
