Poet Introduction
My name's Miasmic Asylum I write more than just poetry but I'm just trying to get myself out there. I love writing and I like to receive criticism on my writing.

She laughed me smiles
with twenty words I spoke
songs, intimate tenderness
reconcile things never existing
never taste Eden's apple

As he stepped back into the middle of the cage everyone gasped at the spectacle he just performed for them at the snap of their fingers. With blood still splattered across their surprised faces they cheer for more. Bashed and bloodied the victim tries to crawl away helplessly. Reluctantly he grabbed him by his shattered knee and smashed him down upon the cement floor hard, releasing blood and one final hopeless cry for help.
As the victim’s body lay there nameless and lifeless, he can’t help but regret his actions. What if he had a family as he does...

A Night for Dinner
A Night for Dinner
As he watched her fall down the stairs he wished for her to be okay. Thankfully there was a break in the stairs at which her momentum stopped. As he ran down to her taking the stairs two at a time, they both knew there was no escape now, not now. There is no way she could run after that fall. No now he had her, and he would kill her, slowly and brutally too. She wished the fall would’ve killed her that would’ve been quick. The last thing she saw was him barreling down the stairs with that vile look in his eye and that ominous smirk on his face. Almost like he...

Tomorrows worth remembered
brought by hands soft holding
whispering doubt flutters
boil me, Amortentia not needed
Ultraviolet Nova Star
my unplanted Virginia
euphoric ecstasy of everyday
gelato lips savoring taste
B.Y.O.B
bring yourself only, beautiful
adventures of magical design
cherry wine with once lit candles
Bluebonnets and Honeysuckle snacks
plush lips lusting
almost time for quenching
rings, tight embraces
Alive with the glory of you
brims...

Beauty seeps into my soul
yet fear still resides
a different fear-
no longer am I afraid to speak
confidence boils up and I adore
"Your eyes I..."
but I falter
I can see at second
that smile it's like mine
facade for show
and the pain of knowing someone's like me
is breaking me
I run from you
but then I fear that you'll think-
I'm back but without you the room's cold
at first I see you
at second I close hurt to see
at third I can't look
epitaph reads-
never to return

Date Night
Date Night
I walk down the street with my head held high. My heart skips a beat and my feet seem to not even touch the ground. I arrive at her door and flatten my vest and long sleeved shirt. I take a deep breath before knocking. She answers the door and I'm stunned at her beauty. Her jeans and t-shirt although simple accent her marvelously. I hold my elbow out so she can lock her arm with mine in an old fashioned way. "My lady." We start on our way to watch the sunset. Its beauty; magenta, violet, and amber, can't even compare to her. When the crest of the sun dips below...

I'll hide
survive
closets sooth
old man's beard itches my neck
pinned and screaming I know it's going down
god the pain and yet
all I do is lay
numb and scared
no not scared
contempt
when the time cums
old man
you won't live longer than me
I'll hide
survive

old man's beard itches my neck

The blinding light doesn't bother me I’ve been doing this for too long, but I know it must bother him. I know from my own experience that the closer I get the more the pain intensifies. His face twists into a knot, his muscles tense and he cries out in pain.
As I get closer I feel the words slip out of my mouth as if they aren’t mine, because they aren’t!” Follow me darling everything will be over soon!” I say the words but it’s not my voice but a woman's and I realize that he must perceive me as a woman, perhaps his wife?
Again from my own...

If what’s lost is found
yet never seen
Hidden away behind lock and key
yet never existing to be free
Defined and refined
yet a theory is not fact
