he came in peace son
so hide not
behind the block
muttering negativity
whilst hiding self
is only keeping
you ablaze
burning is a mortal
kid
cold is the only truth
hallmark of bullies
they hide
from not the enemy
but the truth
behind the block
muttering negativity
whilst hiding self
is only keeping
you ablaze
burning is a mortal
kid
cold is the only truth
hallmark of bullies
they hide
from not the enemy
but the truth

Get help
Who do I turn to
When I can't face myself
What is there left
When I never had anything
Why should I live
If it means just existing
When I can't face myself
What is there left
When I never had anything
Why should I live
If it means just existing

SQUISHY SLAMMING
It's effortless
this sanitary exchange
of electrons
that we do
not at all like
the dirty squishy slamming
of electrons
we desire
this sanitary exchange

that we do
not at all like

Power, Controlled
These hands, weapons
Implications
Needing no explanation
Breathe
Unfurl
Release and walk away
There will be
Most likely
No fight today

shades of brown cluster
clinging to smothered branches
their last flight pending

Sun
The Sun warms my face
and I sleep
sleep comes too easily
each dream longer
deeper than the last
cells quietly dying
in the afternoon.

[there is no answer]
there is no answer
so we grasp for anything
make sense of senseless
seeking security where
only constant chaos reigns
so we grasp for anything

Bar
Drinking a Guinness
Watching traffic
People coming and going
Here I am
Sipping black gold
Writing poetry in my head

Lost
I wouldn't know who to tell
Or where to begin
Would they judge me
Of course they would
Would they accept me
I have no idea
Or where to begin
Would they judge me
Of course they would
Would they accept me
I have no idea
