POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I am the artful voyeur
The Real
Getting bored with the same old story
Want to change
Not just for the glory
For the look twice
In surprise
And double check
That the one you had pinned
Has done something reckless
Something so strange
As to change her attitude
Change her ways
In somethings
And in others
The person they always were
The core ones
Who never gave a damn
As long as others were not
Just ruin yourselves
But for me as well
The selfish
Self obsessed
And completley ridiculous reason
That i'm not happy with me
...

When You're Trying To Try
What is the purpose
Of an unheard radio
Playing its song
Lost in time
What is the point
Of the unused doll
Lying in the corner
Dusty, once loved
Why would you keep
A rusty engine
Broken parts
Contorted wheels
I am the unheard radio
I am the unused doll
I am the rusty engine
We must use ourselves
With the parts others left behind
To create something worthwhile
I hope

So This Is Hate
A wroiling snake
Lies in the stomach
Eyes the red of dante flames
Loathsome
And vulger
When it rears
Its venom soaked fangs
Will BITE

Fragile
It was an anomilie
Then suddenly
It coudn't be
Ignored
I couldn't have guessed it
But this is the best that
Ive felt in awhile
Was it the new start
My hardened heart
Or this favoured advent
That triggered this new phase
Im not sure
But i get the feeling
That it's fragile
Then suddenly
It coudn't be
Ignored
I couldn't have guessed it
But this is the best that
Ive felt in awhile
Was it the new start
My hardened heart
Or this favoured advent
That triggered this new phase
Im not sure
But i get the feeling
That it's fragile

Shell Shock
There was that one person
Who i thought
Would always be in my corner
We were straight
We understood each other
I trusted her
But No
In three words
A friendship gone
Over something pointless
I hate liers
Who i thought
Would always be in my corner
We were straight
We understood each other
I trusted her
But No
In three words
A friendship gone
Over something pointless
I hate liers

Let Me Be
I feel useless over a facebook screen
As they tell me how they cut and bleed
I would gladly bleed for anyone
Who came for help to me
But i disdain the cries of attention
The woeful calls 'poor me'
If you can deal with your suffering
Than please let me be
As they tell me how they cut and bleed
I would gladly bleed for anyone
Who came for help to me
But i disdain the cries of attention
The woeful calls 'poor me'
If you can deal with your suffering
Than please let me be

Debauched Soul
My heights were death defying
Never would i fall low
My moves were sex defined
Body rippled sensuous and slow
I never feared death
My prowess was unmatched
I was all i could be
But ask me in the morning
Never would i fall low
My moves were sex defined
Body rippled sensuous and slow
I never feared death
My prowess was unmatched
I was all i could be
But ask me in the morning

Expanding
How can you get something from nothing
How could that be
This entire universe
is assumed in fallacy
I think therefor i am
comforts a lonely soul
But if nothing else is real
Than why do i stop?
Ex nihlo
we were born
ex nihlo
we've learnt
Out of the cave we go
I beg you, do not return
How could that be
This entire universe
is assumed in fallacy
I think therefor i am
comforts a lonely soul
But if nothing else is real
Than why do i stop?
Ex nihlo

Out of the cave we go

Enlightenment
i tried not to notice
I tried not to see
The redness in the eyes
The teardrops on a cheek
The weak smile of assurance
The shakey lie 'i'm fine'
Everyone knows that dance
Everyone's said those lines
I tried not to notice
I tried not to see
But the mirror never lies
About what your doing to me
I tried not to see
The redness in the eyes
The teardrops on a cheek
The weak smile of assurance
The shakey lie 'i'm fine'
Everyone knows that dance
Everyone's said those lines
I tried not to notice
I tried not to see
But the mirror never lies
About what your doing to me

The Straw That Broke The Camels Back
Shit i just broke down
Cant see the fucking keys as i type
Tears on the keyboard
Fallen from my eyes
Scared about what ive done
Scared about what your going to do
What is to come
This could get better
But i think its going to get worse
Because i got it from you
Lashing out when i'm hurt
Cant see the fucking keys as i type
Tears on the keyboard
Fallen from my eyes
Scared about what ive done
Scared about what your going to do
What is to come
This could get better
But i think its going to get worse
Because i got it from you
Lashing out when i'm hurt

Snow on Red Poppies
One thousand people hold a sigh
And i am counting, counting
Snow settles on black mourning coats
And i am counting, counting
Counting men
Counting lives
Counting days before we die
And i am counting, counting
Snow settles on black mourning coats
And i am counting, counting
Counting men
Counting lives
Counting days before we die

Running Fingers
Sometimes i wonder
If i am home
And other times
I truly know
That the making of music
The creation
Of joy
Goes beyond
My mortal coil
And the keeping of blood
And the shaking of lust
Must sometimes proceed
the building of trust
An industry which
Foundations are firm
Once your experianced
Once you have learnt
The ways of your heart
You can start guessing others
as i try to take care of
My sisters and brothers
If i am home
And other times
I truly know
That the making of music
The creation
Of joy
Goes beyond
My mortal coil
And the keeping of blood
And the shaking of lust
Must sometimes proceed
the building of trust
An industry which
Foundations are firm
Once your experianced
Once you have learnt
The ways of your heart
You can start guessing others
as i try to take care of
My sisters and brothers
