Proteanic Maladroit .. .
Or not
What to say
at the end
of no certain day
they're all the
same thing anyway
a few letters in
the names change
of course you
know I'm a liar
so predictable
I'll probably call this
something vague and
two//faced
or something about fire.

Send a slaughter-Night Gallery
In daydream's wake,
was your face
screaming in
twisted rage..
"My flattery is your battery?!"
Your hand
melted into
my chest
like it had
never left
"It flatters me to batter thee!!"
You spit
blood
and
syllables
at me; you squeeze
Eyes black and endless..
void; little campfires
burning in the deep
Your eyes were caverns-
I could've fallen into you.
-oh,but
that was
days ago.

Life,and it's fangs
I used
to carry
around a
dictionary
to read;
I'd try to
dissect life's
meaning.
I found only
uneasy reading.
-Life
is too much,
it's everything and
anything that our
beings touch.
-But,
it's never enough.
-And,
that's the stuff
that vicious cycles
are made of.

Gimme rain,I approve it.
Summer is,
mid slumber-
warm and waiting.
Spring spins a
web of moist
strings.
[lies]
Everything is
much to dry;
it only appears
that rain has
fallen.
[Lies]
Send Summer's rains,
let this land be razed;
pummel and batter
this place.
:::::::::::::
Twisters ...
... Hurricanes
:::::::::::::::::
Days of rain,to cleanse
and renew;
starting from scratch,
if that's what one
must do.

The drowsy dragon//a gospel truth
This feeling
is that rest
will greet me
this night;
this is true
just the same,
for my appetite.
Let this feeling stay,
let this feeling last.
Of course it will..
of course..
I can't let myself
forget,not again.
That there is peace
in the valley of the
shadow of death.
That is,if blood
and bone
sounds comfy
for building a castle,
a place of rest;
a dragon's nest.

Sickened humiliative
_See
A leper
made of concrete
repulsion-the epitome
A miracle-It speaks...
_Hear
Spouting
promises of life
Pouting
it's fevered lips
_Feel
Like I would throw myself
in the dirt,and stay down
there with it
_Now
Coated in grime,and filth
Given to spill
Will-filled words on an
already sickened world
_just
A perversion
of martyrdom
Calling every eye,and ear
to see,and hear it's own
so called "sins"

A most unusual beast
She stared directly at
the beast; she pointed
a finger,and screamed
"You do not exist!"
But,it did..so it hid.
Finding it's home
in shadows,and every
dark and mournful thing.
Feeding itself
on the torments
that night always brings.
Once spotted by trained
eyes,who exclaimed,
"You're sick!"
These professionals
were experts in
every aspect;
highly regarded,
in every respect.
But...
the truth is,they knew
half of it.
They knew only half
of this Hell.

Roulette perks-edit
Six little clicks;
so far,I count five.
One more pull,I die.
It's not suicide;
it's going out alive,
like it's my first and
last time.
It could have been you;
now you...
at least you,
get to watch me die.
Good game.
*Bang*

This is the truth
Is there any surprise
that this mood fits me
like an old shoe?
I think there's something
terribly wrong,when your
angst leaves you.
I'll not be satisfied; I'll
not admit to being
pacified, that would be
an unjustifiable lie.
Now..
There are beautiful scenes,
played out before my eyes;
this spring breeze, this pristine
neon blue sky.
I could speak about all of these
wonderful things,
like that kind of thing
hasn't been done
a few million times.
This would not be true,
to my heart,so blue....

Gripped
My blood is a roaring boil.
I've tried..I've tried to stifle
this thing,that can only be
described as some sort of
sickness; I can't shake this
possession.
It scares me that it won't release.
I've been mad at it;
I spit,I throw dirt at it.
It's never had a slip
of it's grip.
I usually bitch and complain,
paint on a fuckin smile;
and wander aimlessly,
gripping tight to the grip,
that's squeezing the life
right out of me.

High and low
My angst came crashing back,
I've bitten my lip,bloody.
Is this my fault,to be torn
back and forth?Is there any
wonder,I don't know what
to think?I don't know what
I'm worth.
The lost stay that way,due
to lack of information.
They have no clue,as to how
they should move; I feel
this too.
I move in one direction,thinking
today will be the day,a sign perhaps,that I'm going the right way; frustration in a failed
hoped redirects my path.
Everything looks the same.
I'm lost in this place.
I can only hope to wander...

Fates entwined
As I sat pondering
the landscape before me,
an outstretched hand
was pulling me from the dirt;
somehow pulled me up,
heartfirst.
From out of nowhere,
a soul sent
to clean my wounds;
a heart that needs
it's own healing,too.
Something, I would
be honored to do.
A glorious bond began.
I met a new,and
remarkable friend.
We can walk it off.
In everything,we can
walk one another through.
Loneliness is something,
we'll no longer have to do.
