20/20
A new decade,
Memories that will never fade,
Loved, laughed, cried, yelled, wondered, wandered, and pondered.
I did some things I'm not proud of,
Like, to those I'm most fond of,
Whom I admire, for they inspire me to be my best,
With life, I got too stressed,
And I didn't wish them a happy Thanksgiving or Christmas,
Which I should have, regardless of my life's status,
And it makes me feel awful,
Worse than if I had ever been unlawful!
Now,
I avow to make things right,
To have a 20/20 soul (better than my eyesight). ...

Dear Dad....
Dear Dad....
You've always been there for me,
Always loved, cared for, and supported me,
Always wanted to see, and encouraged my personal growth,
You've gone above and beyond your oath
To be the best father in the world,
Teaching me about the world, that before me, has part by part, unfurled.
You've taught me right from wrong,
You've taught me to be strong
(Physically, emotionally, and mentally)
And (though I'm still learning) to be orderly,
You've taught me how to learn, different mediums for expressing my creativity, 3D modelling, car...

Mask (the Last Straw)
I love my family, they've given me so many gifts,
Love, kindness, support, acceptance, food, clothing, a roof over my head, school, and now Christmas gifts.
I do and say many things that bring me happiness,
But I also wear a mask of happiness...
What happened to them?
What made them suddenly change in this chauvinism?
My emotional well-being no longer seems to matter to them,
As long as I am fed, and not on the streets, then I am hunky dory!
I have to tell them a happier story,
Of how my day went,
So they'll be content
And not assume I'm...

Destruction
Skulls crush beneath my tires,
As each adversary expires,
Who's the real enemy?
Those who kill mercilessly? Or those who kill for money?
Those who are willing,
To make sure they get the most out of every killing.
As my vehicle crushes you, everywhere, guts squirt...
Aww, did that hurt?
Listen, you've caught me in a good mood, I think I'll let you live...a few extra seconds!
Killing sure has it's merits!
I can no longer tell the difference between me and those bandits...
But is there really anything wrong with that?
Using my sniper...

Earworm (Insanity)
...Started singin' it, not knowing what it was..."
Infectious,
Insidious,
I think I'm going crazy,
Everything's seeming hazy,
You see,
This is not like me...
"And they'll continue singin' it forever just because..."
I am hooked,
It's got me spooked,
I'm surprised I've got the strength to think of anything but,
What
Is going on and on in my head,
And after I go to bed,
I will probably still dream of this endless loop,
'Round and 'round, like a hoop...
Yes, it doesn't end,
It never ends...
I've been known...

Daffodil
Once there was a field, damp, and bare,
Then came a rainsrorm there,
The wind blew a little seed
Not of a grass, tree, or reed,
But that of a daffodil.
Not just any daffodil,
But a color changing,
Galaxy emanating,
Flower.
A flower with power,
The power to be,
Whoever she wished to be.
Growing in the field of rams and ox,
Much prettier than kept in a window box,
And she is best friends with one Ram and ox,
Aries, and Yin-Fire are their names.
...And this field, one with many names,
Grows inside that which was...

Holiday Haikus
Longer Years:
Christmas comes yearly,
Not enough time inbetween,
Wish years were longer.
Fruitcake:
A cake made of fruit,
TV perpetuates hate,
But I like fruitcake.
Miss You:
I wish you were here
With me, under mistletoe,
How I miss you so.
Winter Wonderland:
Winter wonderland,
Hypothermia sets in,
Bodies shattering.
Win:
Thick, blanket of snow,
As snow blindness does set in,
Do we ever win?
Destroyed: ...

The Unicorn
..And there it was,
Majestic, pure, and righteous,
A unicorn, slender, and strong,
With a spiraling, pale blue, horn, pointed and long,
With white hair, and golden hooves,
Under golden, dappled sunlight of leafy roofs,
With a thick, wavy, flowing, mane of blue hair.
With steps so graceful, it seemed almost to walk on air.
It seemed almost unreal,
It stopped to look off into the distance, before it's next step final,
It slowly blinked its long, thick, eyelashes,
Taking in one last look of the scenery, so precious,

Death....
Death is all around me,
It is everything that I see,
Everyday I hear about more and more
That I thought would be here, in the background forevermore,
And those that I cared about directly,
Leaving holes, in the world, empty,
Leaving holes in my world, empty...
I must let go of these shields to death,
I must stop guarding my ego from death.
I have begun to come to an understanding,
It will only keep happening, and happening,
And being grieved-out has made me put up these walls,
To save me from the emotional falls,
I must only,...

Postmortem Fetal Extrusion
A poor body,
Lying was her hobby,
Told one lie too many,
It t'would not be without a fee.
Free
As a cadaver,
Now a lie, the gravity of, unbeknownst to her.
A silence that seemed to scream.
It was not a dream,
A cacophony of silence,
A nonverbal parlance,
Post mortem,
Sweet nihilism...
When they found the maggot-filled mass, extruded,
Counterfeit,
Not really belonging,
Therefore not allowed to continue developing,
An exodus of blood,
From around the gut,
Two cadavers,
From great adventures, ...

Thank You, Brad Dourif!
The road of life, a bumpy, gravel road,
Sometimes self guidence just isn't enough,
Introvert, ADHD, overload,
Poetic anxieties, a bleed-through....
Until three years ago, I found you, Brad,
I began the journey to my best self,
And since then, you've been my knight, ironclad,
You're my courage to be true to myself.
I met you once, last year, you were so kind,
Your words were so inspiring, thank you,
You've brought my third eye out from being blind,
The best human in existance is you.
I hope we run into eachother again,
