let himself in
he opened a
gate.
Pushed his
fingers into
my mouth
pulled my hair
all the way
back
and held my
eyes,
wider than before.

Suicide and Pixel Lines
Trace pixel lines
across
unsteady pylons.
Burn the image
of a broken tube
into your eyes.
Wrap the wires
over your leaking
arms.
Drip a single
electron
from your eye.

Not Just
There's some
sanity to be had
here
I'm sure of it
Though the waves
crash
in the name of
war
and the sky
we have built
can hardly
be seen.
Yet the
ground around us
may be paved
with despair
I know there must
be something
worth holding onto
out there
It's not just a ball of fire...

Ingest
Croaking diseased rapture
to the algae gods
blind on fluorescent lights.
Ingesting.
The juices that colour my flesh.

A Shadow of his Former Self
Frozen and ageless
broken and harmless,
God, seated on his throne
above a threadbare carpet.
Rotting in soiled rags,
of former glory.
Like a vulture
pecking at bonemeal,
mindless of the filth
gathering below its lofty perch,
Pissing itself in time
for one last feast.

Raise
The sores around her eyes
were the only present he had ever given her.
His voice never raised in tone
but as he whipped her mind,
her scars instead were raised.
~
he controlled every thought,
until he one day went away
to leave her bleeding on the floor
in her own misery .

I will never say "I do."
Why do you
care?
as we choke
on despair
Agent of
pearl
with ethereal
flare
Demise
conquered, by
two blind
vows
Pouring the
gold
onto the fingers
of sows
Settle down,
Shut up!
bedroom court
breaking crimson.
Reveal
pink flesh
to a,
silent crowd
Cry out
in joy
and
suckling fever
Tucking
hypocrite dreams
into ribbed
cages.
Leaving barcode
wills
to settle
siblicide hounds
Vultures come
mourning through...

Ego Fans
Mongrels rebelling
against,
silk draped
flesh
burning in
candlelight,
tumbling in
ravines
drowning in
secondhand,
prose.
Clichéd!

Brewed For You
Inject this elixir
right into my
blood, because
you know this is all in vein
I keep pushing
searching
for some
light
at the end
of this
fucking
dark syringe
pumping muscle
while strapping arms
beating chests
beating hands
burning rubber
and airplane glue
taste the difference
it's been brewed for you.

Lustful Arrogance
I resisted once.
forced my way
through some great
tale, of truth and justice
but then I knew passion
scented skin
clumsily adorned
in cheap silver
caught in the
craze of disorientated
youth, escaped
and liberal in their love
taking the meal
and biting the hand
sweeping the crumbs
aside
lust is just like
love, in fact
but no nooses
around my limbs
oh, sure
there have been
ruptures of delirium,
but truth prevailed
and now
stumbling
through the marshes

Crowd of Stones and Vomit
Words thrown like bricks
from the wretched crowd
As I pen another word
like filling the chamber of a gun
I wish I could send
row after row
of words, slamming
into their leering faces
A martyrs lies
vomiting forth
these stones are hurled
at the only one amongst them
Not wearing a mask.

See Me.
I'm not invisible
I just don't
let you see.
Me
see me
standing here,
am I invisible
now?
my emotions have
always been invisible
to you
see me?
heart laid on the table
tell me
am I invisible
now?
see me?
I just don't
let you see.
