POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
54 month's they giveth
Is this all I'm meant to be
Lifespan no more than a century
And I'm stuck in a penitentiary
My life and I'm not even the driver
I'm riding in the sidecar
All the way to the graveyard
Not even a blip on the radar
Surrounded by concrete reinforced with rebar
Tired of seeing razor wire
Tired of all the wannabe gangster fakes
Tired of hanging out with not solid flakes
Tired of reading and playing cards all day
Tired of being stuck in this same mind state
Tired of not wanting to change
Tired of being filled with rage...

Apotheosis
The closer I am the further I get
A stormy forecast I predict
Bliss is hard to resist
Kiss the cheek of the devil
Thoughts are warped and twisted like metal
Better cork those lips or there'll be trouble
Ill bury your corpse in a ditch with a shovel
Lifes to short and subtle.. Abort your rebuttal
Lysergic vision
Beautiful rendition
I Reached apotheosis
But psychosis is probably the doctors prognosis
I cant restore my...

The Devil's Wraith
The Devil came up today
Escaped from the other place
The vessel was a great snake
My flesh it wants to taste
With no time to waste
It slithered up to me
Those gray opaque eyes
Gazed straight into my withered soul
Its presence there felt so cold
Like being stuck in a blizzard
Without a coat or clothes
He said "I can make you whole again."
"I can wash away all the sin."
"I can numb the pain within."
Those statements made me anxious. "You only need a few drops of my serum but beware."...

tweeker time
Tweakin on the weekend
Or did the week already begin
Shit it's already Tuesday
At least that's what you say
I don't trust you
Or anyone for that matter
Not even your cat
Everyone i know is a rat
I'm not answering the phone
because it's probably tapped
I don't want the feds to know where I'm at.
Im hiding because i fear I'm gonna get indicted.
No need to peek outta the blind's
I have a camera watching the front drive
Making a list of all the cars that go by
A friend pulls up in her ride
She knocks but i dont let ger inside
I...

Dead inside
You try to hide that you're dead inside.
Still traumatized that your girlfriend died.
You saved her life with ice cold water twice.
Third time you werent around
She chose the needle over you.
You chose the needle over her too.
Now uour Using your pain as an excuse to let the beast loose, to wreak havoc on every facet of life.
So high you couldn't even cry when you grandfather died.
You isolate and hide
Because you can't deny
Your dead inside
