POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I once met a girl. She was beautiful. Unknown, I asked her name. She replies with a sigh. Am I really naive?
Short poem sure it's a draft
Opposite me, an empty chair
Sitting is a breath of fresh air
This dark room helps me dream
Things that i have once seen
Loud ticking of the clock it reminds me
Of times when smiles were given easily
Dreams i can still recall vividly
I reckon none of them includes me
I do honestly wish to find my true peace
Not silence slowly killing me in my sleep
With a deep heavy sigh i let loose
Tie me your thoughts and hang mine too
Sitting is a breath of fresh air
This dark room helps me dream
Things that i have once seen
Loud ticking of the clock it reminds me
Of times when smiles were given easily
Dreams i can still recall vividly
I reckon none of them includes me
I do honestly wish to find my true peace
Not silence slowly killing me in my sleep
With a deep heavy sigh i let loose
Tie me your thoughts and hang mine too

I dont know
Deep down ive learned so much
Can i apply it with perfect touch?
Unsure i strive for correct execution
Use the mind's newfound expansion
This trial and error left me frustrated
All this knowledge through books berated
I cannot fathom your confusing conclusion
Can i grasp this abstract introduction?
So far ive learned to accept the fact
You cannot use iformation i lack
Knowing gives power to those gifted
Green beast envy dwells in my head
Maybe one day i find true meaning
Regardless i find that time is fleeting
Til then ill...

You money-munchers
crazy warmongers
you shit on
feminist innovators
and peace lovers
and fire fighters
bringing people in stretchers
injury and pain
is for losers
suck it up
you're a man
says man's father
taking all our food
and all the reasons
to do good
freedom never existed
you make commercials look good
to keep everyone in line
you enforce these so called rules
and break them every time
some days feel like hell
other days they feel like
god just rammed something
sharp...

Sad Guitar
They dig deep
deeper than consolation
the deepest recesses
of one's mind
his will is intact
but is being stepped on
used as a door mat
welcome dirt and mud
he is ridiculed
for nothing more
than tiny holes
in his character
his arms are numb
eyes are wide and awake
his veins busy
circulating honey and blood
the sweet taste
left in a pointed tip
dripping and mocking
reused, unsanitized
to save exposure
from an unsatisfied crowd
unsatisfied eyes
satisfying their mispronounced...

Ritual
worship the demon
tempted by evil
wrapped around in rags
she thought was riches
giving her beautiful body
she lets his hand slither
he feels truly happy
until he finds another
what a passionate lover
soon he will discover
the true fire
the true burn
hell is the earn
heaven shall mourn
another soul is lost
to the black flames of death
for the flowers of birth

Last Days
They say the moment before you die
your life flashes before your eyes
now, isn't it true
that the perfect view
is the sky as you hit the ground
and everyone hears the sound
i imagine myself in that way
body destroyed, as i lay
still hearing the birds
and the crowd chirp
and the sun up high
calming and inviting
no longer am i breathing
i realize that i'm crying
i still have feelings
the moments before you die
your life flashes before your eyes
your life flashes before your eyes
now, isn't it true
that the perfect view
is the sky as you hit the ground
and everyone hears the sound
i imagine myself in that way
body destroyed, as i lay
still hearing the birds
and the crowd chirp
and the sun up high
calming and inviting
no longer am i breathing
i realize that i'm crying
i still have feelings
the moments before you die
your life flashes before your eyes

Cheesy Love Poem
My heavy load
still light, love life
i've never seen the sun so bright
the things i wish were there
never seem to be true
all i see
are traffic lights
and passers by
that is until you caught my eye
the eye that so desperately want to see you
the pixie sprite
in a different light
so full of life
the dark bags will go away
when i see the best part of my day
i hope to see your lips say
"stay, child
walk with me 'til the end of the day"
still light, love life
i've never seen the sun so bright
the things i wish were there
never seem to be true
all i see
are traffic lights
and passers by
that is until you caught my eye
the eye that so desperately want to see you
the pixie sprite
in a different light
so full of life
the dark bags will go away
when i see the best part of my day
i hope to see your lips say
"stay, child
walk with me 'til the end of the day"

Color Wheel Of Fortune
Still seas and
dancing trees
green is serene
thunder claps and
lightning strikes
eternal blue sky
blushing brides
long white gowns
yellow that shows
forbidden fruit
forbidden truth
oranges are strange
sticks and stones
and broken bones
a turbulent violet
sunrise and
sunset
the color red is dead
color wheel
that seldom feel
stories told
when you get old
social understandings
socials are deceiving
change from up heaving
dancing trees
green is serene
thunder claps and
lightning strikes
eternal blue sky
blushing brides
long white gowns
yellow that shows
forbidden fruit
forbidden truth
oranges are strange
sticks and stones
and broken bones
a turbulent violet
sunrise and
sunset
the color red is dead
color wheel
that seldom feel
stories told
when you get old
social understandings
socials are deceiving

Shady Trees
Blink eye blink
sting it stings
lemon drops make my eyes pop
all about looks
in vein i like books
not so much to look at
even with a suit and a top hat
a performing monkey
caged since i was freed
blink blink
sting sick
i love the smell of chloroform
mornings make me sick
it makes my head stay still
and my mind go blank
i hate the world
i love the sea
i love the lands
with grass and trees
i love my love
but i hate the world
what is this world coming to
hatred and love
and peace and violence...

Love the Blind and the Mute
for they sing and see the truth
listen to what the Deaf has to say
he will surely tell you his name
Sight leads us to and away from darkness
they treat us with passionate tenderness
Taste that make survival pleasurable
without it food would be unbearable
hearing new waves of music
understanding cultural diversity
Touch has always been forgotten
but when you feel something... it's there
last is Smell, the oldest
our most basic companion and most modest
the five senses of perception
the mind's most...

Global Thermonuclear War
The big red mouth
who speaks his
mind out loud
the great queen cat
is just another
dirty bullied rat
the brave bird's nest
is filled with
clean broken glass
the lords of death
the lords of war
the lords of money
all have no fear
can't speak, see, or hear
transferring smiles
transferring paintings

Church Bells
The moon, full and white
stars simmer in the night sky
hope glimmers in our eyes
the selfless king
and the selfish queen
know not, as it seems
the calamity their love brings
i draw the devil
that spawned earthly seeds
the sun with all its rage
the clouds reflecting its rays
we wait for it to rain
the selfish king
kills its queen
with a knife
he silences the screams
knowing not what it means
to love his queen
stars simmer in the night sky
hope glimmers in our eyes
the selfless king
and the selfish queen
know not, as it seems
the calamity their love brings
i draw the devil
that spawned earthly seeds
the sun with all its rage
the clouds reflecting its rays
we wait for it to rain
the selfish king
kills its queen
with a knife
he silences the screams
knowing not what it means
to love his queen
