The Dark Side of Poetry
OLD
damn these kids today
with their weird hair and clothes
listening to cringy music
where did the time go?
used to spend all day
rocking out and hanging out at the mall
now I'm tired all the time
and my back is sore
but I can still party hard
with a few pain medications
politics is so flip flopped
when I was young I didn't care
but guess it's not cool to not care
now we believe in the TV
more than our own friends and family
picking up the phone to scroll nonsense
I would go outside
but the world...

Life Goals
they'll beat you
starve you
then praise you when you're dead
gone mad
homeless
drinking till it all makes sense
they'll take everything
as you gave
giving everlasting dreams
all it cost was a nightmare
lord help this poor soul
life goals
like Poe
over worked
with outrageous goals
no one hears the cries
shouting out as tries
everyday living in poverty
what he wouldn't give
for some recognition
but every attempt drives him crazy
cutting off his...

Drowning in Depravity
you want to be an artist
and be taken more serious
sorry, that's just not the world we live in
you want attention
all you have to do is show more skin
bust out those tits
pop that ass out
because nothing fucking matters
nothing fucking matters N E more
and if you're wondering
what I'll be up to
while the world burns
I think I'll be
drowning myself
in depravity
there's no heaven
when we live in hell
sheeps with their red hats
being lead to the slaughter
and it makes me laugh ...

Everyone Everywhere All at Once
today I feel so betrayed
not just by anyone
but everyone
everywhere
all at once
hold me close
my mind's just not with it
tell me it's a bad dream
you're the only one I can trust
wish I knew
what it is I'm not getting
such a shame
I have so much love to give
but now I'm in survival mode
wondering what's gonna happen to me
and my friends and family
with such cold responses
it fills me with rage
if I have to live in hell
you damn right
I'm gonna crack a smile
when...

Third Time's a Charm
my name is Billy Bob
I just got hurt at my job
my wife's on disability
turning on Fox to hear what I think
man, I'm sure sick of these leeches
living off the system
what's that?
Trump got rid of social security
well at least I still get workmans comp
what? he got rid of that too
and the union has been busted
I thought he would make things better
guess that's the price you pay
to see less Mexicans
hear we!, hear we!,
we're the dumb fucks
who voted Donald Trump
we love football and derby cars
we...

My Fear
maybe this isn't very poetic
honestly I don't know what to say
I just know I have to say something
I'm not usually one to be afraid
but I do see things greater than me
something that does pull one my heart
is the suffering of others
I don't like when Trump speaks
he talks about people like trash
I've said so much about him
and you've heard about him
my fear is hearing it for another 4 years
but a greater fear
is watching freedom die
and we became forever desensitized
to hatred

For The Art of It
I wrote a poem
then I picked up a guitar
sang a couple lines
holy shit
that's a hit!
Jimmy Iovine is now looking at me
like I'm a chick with big tits
because there's money to be made
just not for the artist
getting clicks on Spotify
making hits
more like turning tricks
for your business daddy
took a few months
but I finally finished a book
it was the kind that enchants your mind
the buzz is going round
now Jeff Bezos is calling me up
Like he wants to fuck
I figure why not
but...

Draculina
she was crying with a gun in her mouth
the smell of her families blood around
I asked “who did this?”
as tears ran down her face
her silence disturbed me
still I extended my hand, then told her
“why die when you could live forever?”
she was a bit on the wild side
I shrugged it off as her being young
though her actions were bothersome
ripping kids heads off
running after pregnant women
tearing the fetus from the belly
I’m a monster, but it still made me sick
I might be a murderer
but more of the gentle...

I’m in love with a witch
wears all black
with an upside-down crucifix
has a phat ass and big tits
all my friends are jealous
they call her my gothic girlfriend
but she is so much more than that
with hazel eyes
she sees right through my soul
if I didn’t know better
I’d say she put a spell on me
It’s weeks she makes me beg
but on that glorious day
she said –“don’t fuck me over
or I’ll curse you”
right before pulling out my cock
and sucking me off
everyday after I would send her songs
love poems and...

Killer Déjà Vu p2.
she looks into my eyes
and draws in gracefully
I order us another drink
the bar sounds begin to drown out
smirking at her flirtatious ways
as I run my fingers down her shoulder
she bites down on her lip
seemingly eager to get out of here
she even pays for the night
I ask "my place or yours?"
-"my roommate is gone"
her place it is
as we walk in
she complements my cologne
even though it's a cheap off brand
she slams the door
-"now I got you!"
her whole demeanor changes ...

Killer Déjà Vu
looking into her eyes I draw in gracefully
dropping a potion in the wine she drinks
the voices in the background start to drown
red lips smirk from some word play
feeling her digits rub up against my forearm
I cringefully bite down on my tongue
unholy urges arise from the depths of me
it's essential to get her to fall into my web
with sweet words -“let’s get out of here”
I take her back to my apartment
opening the door for such a sexy temptress
taking in the sweet smell of perfume
as she walk in
I close the door then all...

I Killed a Girl and I Liked It
so hot and heavy
like teenagers in love
when she went down on me
sent me to heaven above
till that day like all the others
said she wished I was dead
bitch, that makes two of us!
so I hit her over the head with a shovel
then I cut open her neck
drank her like a squeezit
like some 90s kid
blood, blood ,blood
and sex, sex, sex
hey baby
it’s just a vampire thing
moving and shaking
till the dead they awaken
and eat up all your flesh
got to get dressed
in my killing time’s best
taking...
