Poet Introduction
Yeah I guess.
A Cozy Fire
Burn me
Burn me in the fire
Flames licking at me
At this burning pyre.
Crackling wood
Sparks popping on my skin
The pleasure incomparable
I'm burning again.
"Witch" is what the mob crys'
As I dance within the flames
That wrap warmly around me
The one with so many names.
Burning with desire
Moaning with ecstasy
The fire now roars
Excitedly pleasing me.
I am burning
They are burning me so well
Who are warming me up
To unleash all unholy hell.
Burn me in the fire
Flames licking at me
At this burning pyre.
Crackling wood
Sparks popping on my skin
The pleasure incomparable
I'm burning again.
"Witch" is what the mob crys'
As I dance within the flames
That wrap warmly around me
The one with so many names.
Burning with desire
Moaning with ecstasy
The fire now roars
Excitedly pleasing me.
I am burning
They are burning me so well
Who are warming me up
To unleash all unholy hell.

It Look's Like Man
Saturated within the viscous platitudes that spew from that animated orifice called a mouth residing offensively just below your upraised snout, I stand smiling in awe at how the weight of your ego does not snap that bird-like neck upon which your well tended-head sits grandiosely upon? It speaks, and it vaunts, and does little else but pollute the air about it with venemous and noisy expulsions. I take offense, and this offense spawns action. With little effort, I tear off the head that spoke so appraisingly of itself with but a bare-handed grip clasped joyfully around his once stiff and...

Her Cold Hand
Her cold hand
Has left me frozen inside
When she caressed me
Was when hope withered and died,
She cried that she wanted love
I should have noticed her eyes'
Much like ice and frigid stone
A cold winter in a summer's disguise.
Has left me frozen inside
When she caressed me
Was when hope withered and died,
She cried that she wanted love

Much like ice and frigid stone

I Am Ninja
I am ninja, tonight my task is to kill
I've been payed in full, so this I will,
Clothed in solid black, weapons close at hand
With the mindset of a demigod's, not as man's,
Sneaking along the shadows, darkness my only friend
I am harmonized with nature and so I shall win,
At the castle gate, two Samurai stand
I release two shurikan with a lethally skilled hand,
My being melts into shadow and I go in unsensed
The official dies by my blade with only a muffled wince,
I came the same way that I now soundlessly leave
I am ninja, the proof...

A Purpose Without End
I know the way out of Hell so keep following me!
I've been here since 'creation' so I can see,
You're all still fresh and blinded by the pain
Who still thirst for water and soothing rain,
I've had the time to chart and dilligently explore
I know Hell intimately and so much more,
I could have left but returned for you all
You needed a savior and I answered the call!,
The fire burns, the hot wind stings, and we need rest
Though keep crawling we must towards uppermost north-west,
CRAWL ON, even though progress moves hellishly slow!
Focus on...

Sad Lady
O' sad lady hold up thy weary head
Don't worry with what's been said,
It's but a drop in the pouring rain
With suicide there is nothing to gain,
Blood on the carpet, agony in your face
And you'll bloody that lovely lace,
No, no; a razor is not the way
Here take my gun; now go and play.

What do you mean that I don't pay attention???
I've listened to every word you had to mention!
Listen to those talkative birds chirp away!
Shut-up birds, you've been chirping all day!!!,
Yeah, I'm talking to you in the blue feathers!
And the rest of you not held down by gravity's tethers'!,
All up there on power lines and in tall trees'!
Go fly off somewhere, preferably overseas'!
And as for you, I do stay focused despite belief
Your criticism fills me with a heavy grief,
Oh I love this song, watch how good I...

Mess On The Floor
She looked upon him with uncaring eyes
Sickened at how he grovelled at her feet
He reminded her of gray, weeping skies
She preferred her men bitter and not so sweet,
He heaved and sobbed for her love
Her stomach turned at such a display
As he clung to her like a tight glove
She only wished that he'd go away,
Who cringed at the feel of his flowing tears
Wondering how long a man could cry?!
Pressing her palms against her ears
Wishing he'd crawl away and just die,
True to expectation his grief turned...

The Devil's Broken Heart
Sitting upon his throne and rubbing his chin
He notices a sensation unfamiliar to him,
He ponders it and begins to recall its shape
It's an old feeling that was before he knew hate,
His face softens as it's prescence expands
His jaw unclenches and relaxes his hands,
"I know this feeling", he nods with recollection
"It is love", he admits at the soothing inflection,
The Devil then leans forwards with a bowed head
Shaking his head in dismay at what he thought was dead,
Just as a single tear forms the feeling is gone
In an instant...
