POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write but am wrong, am stuck but am stuck in song. Fong-kong-along-along-along.
Love gone wrong
From intercourse
To divorce
It's a story of pain
With Nothing to show for it
But a glimpse of hope in the rain
You walk a ledge in this game
To keep love in the frame
It's a crying shame
All of the pain
Of a dying love,
A lifeless flame
The family was torn
When the child was born
The mother received with nothing but scorn
A childs naivety
It wasn't his fault
He blames himself
She cries in her bed
As thoughts run round her head,
Like do I deserve this!?!
And I wish I were dead...

As I Set My House On Fire
As I set my house on fire
I throw myself on to this pyre
I've kept the pain at bay so far
With a bit of Absinth and Jagar
But in a moment of clear thought
I see all the people I've forsaken
All the turns I should have taken
It's like Yin andYang
Life and Death
Crystal Meth
This pain is a chasm,
It sends me into a spasm
Of that rare glimps of understanding
That people rarely care,
People rarely treasure lifes incredible yet fleeting beauty
I throw myself on to this pyre
I've kept the pain at bay so far
With a bit of Absinth and Jagar
But in a moment of clear thought
I see all the people I've forsaken
All the turns I should have taken
It's like Yin andYang
Life and Death
Crystal Meth
This pain is a chasm,
It sends me into a spasm
Of that rare glimps of understanding
That people rarely care,
People rarely treasure lifes incredible yet fleeting beauty

Solitude
A knife in the back
As life beats you down
You try to keep on your feet
Trying to fend off sanity
As you descend into dementia
With the increased degeneration of your health
Life becomes simplicity itself
Sitting in a room
in a chair
by yourself
watching the room burn around you
Guess sanity has found you
And you don't like what you see
You decide death'll set you free
But between you and me
You have to face the pain
Man up, Stop running,
Turn back to the world
Face life,
Embrace your fate,
Find a mate...

A Woman
A Woman
So beautiful
So seductive
Can destroy a mans world
With a touch of her fingertips
The gentle sway of her hips
With a kiss of her lips
Your stuck in that mire
Of lust and desire
Your caught in the wire
Your cock is on fire,
She makes you feel high
To bad its a lie
So beautiful
So seductive
Can destroy a mans world
With a touch of her fingertips
The gentle sway of her hips
With a kiss of her lips
Your stuck in that mire
Of lust and desire
Your caught in the wire
Your cock is on fire,
She makes you feel high

I Be Fiery!?!
The fire thats inme
It burns right through eternally
Burns straight through this monopoly,
They'll all see,
I Be fiery
This arrogant prance
This deadly dance
It leaves me scorched
I've been torched
All this peace
I won't let the turmoil cease
I let chaos reign
I feel it ravange my brain
It should be profain
To be this fucking insane
To be in my own lane
To break this drug fuelled chain
I keep the right to abstain
From the race for personal gain
It burns right through eternally
Burns straight through this monopoly,
They'll all see,
I Be fiery
This arrogant prance
This deadly dance
It leaves me scorched
I've been torched
All this peace
I won't let the turmoil cease
I let chaos reign
I feel it ravange my brain
It should be profain
To be this fucking insane
To be in my own lane
To break this drug fuelled chain
I keep the right to abstain
From the race for personal gain

The Joker
I feel like the joker
In the pack of cards
I'm not a member of
any group
I can be used as
anything
From royalty to a lowlife
Often I'm left out of
the game completely
I'm the minority
The disowned member
In a game of Families
Adapting to the cards around
me trying to fit in
And find friends in this
Sea of indifferent dislike
In the pack of cards
I'm not a member of
any group
I can be used as
anything
From royalty to a lowlife
Often I'm left out of
the game completely
I'm the minority
The disowned member

Adapting to the cards around
me trying to fit in
And find friends in this
Sea of indifferent dislike

Death doesn't care
The message has been sent
filled with malicious intent
The deed has been rent
It's to late to lament,
He's filled with despair
Life isn't fair
AndDeath doesn't care
it's a treacherous snare
It lays you down bare
and gives you a scare
filled with malicious intent
The deed has been rent
It's to late to lament,
He's filled with despair
Life isn't fair
AndDeath doesn't care
it's a treacherous snare
It lays you down bare
and gives you a scare

Love gone Lethal
Why did you ever come back for me,
Please can't you see
Just leave me be,
A final fantasy
Global anarchy
Leave it all behind
This deadly beauty of a find
It's playing tricks with my mind
The sight of her has made me blind
To all the problems with this love
I thought had come from up above
Please let me stay free
And let me wallow
In my sorrow
Let me live like there's no tomorrow
For one night
To drink my cane
And go insane
As i try to forget your name
Thats how i'll fight ...

The Gods those Sods
People never seem to think...
Im on the brink
And voicing my lyrical profanity
A statement of my questionable sanity,
What were the odds
I'd be who i be,
Or was it the Gods
Those almight Sods
And all their Power,
They made the hour of my birth,
They've planned the minutes of my death
Every Ethereal Breath,
But I'm happy
It should make me sick
Make me smack my head on the brick
But rather I've been given life
And I make the most of living it...

The Suffering
The Suffering
Everyday
So gray
After everything
Anyone can say
My lifes, Still this way
People fighting in a fray
They have friends and
family, they die anyway
Love means nothing
In this world filled with hate
People so Irate
What a fucking state

Fighting For My Mind
As my mind goes round and round,
I wander whats left there to be found
Every breath
Is a lungful of death
But I dont dare
Take the time to care
All I needs my nicatine
For the life of me ive stayed clean
All I need
Is my weed
But I'm scared one day my lungs will bleed
All I needs my crystal meth
But I'm scared it'll be my death...

All I needs my crystal meth
But I'm scared it'll be my death...
