POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
In my spare time I have been known to end pointless threads with a quick kill. And rarer than that is when I write poetry.
The 13 Blessings of Humanity

Blessed are the Lovers for their hearts flow selflessly forth
Blessed are the Beloved for they shall never be lonely
Blessed are the Teachers who enlighten us in our ignorance
Blessed are the Scholars for they yearn to learn how to make life better
Blessed are the Cleaners for cleanliness is next to godliness
Blessed are the Maintainers for they preserve the deteriorating
Blessed are the Fixers for they pick up the pieces when they are broken

Viva la Vanquish
Viva la Vanquish
Roman Legionaries used to chant my name,
That was when I rose above the pain
It’s the world I never hold
I am no longer a wolf in the fold.
That was when I claimed it all
But now I sit alone in this hall
Just a sad solitude king
Who has not a thing.
Oh, just a mere peasant, not even a knave,
Now a fool who digs his own grave.
With nothing anymore to save,
That bright road I cannot seem to pave.
Loyal Legionaries used to bellow my name,
That was when I couldn’t be touched by pain
That was when I...

True Happiness
True Happiness is the sweetest fruit that you will ever taste.
One bite might do but you can always have more.
It breaks apart and can be shared with others.
It fills not only your mouth but your soul.
It is the picture that brightens your day.
That brightens others day.
That shines through all the sorrow.
Tears of joy and laughter fill your face.
Just being alive brings happiness.
All your senses absorb the atmosphere.
Happiness is the fluffy duster that tickles everyone.
Filling your heart and completing your existence.

Smiling Happily
So what can you do
What can you say
That has made you
Proud today
What can you know
What can you show
Did you make it alone or
Did you get help from a friend
I told you I know this ‘cause
I always kept on smiling
Through all the bad, always glad
Floating along peacefully
And so I now grow
And share all my glee
Just remember to keep
Smiling for me.
All through the day
All through the night
Through the darkness and the light
Just keep showing that face
When life seems so wrong
Think about your
Favourite...

My dear perfect friend/fiend
My dear perfect friend
Or should I say fiend?
That’s what I’d like to say
But I won’t be able to today
As you don’t exist at all
And the tale is far too tall
There are others as alternatives
But it’s not my best friend who lives
My perfect imaginary friend
Without you I’m just a fiend.
If you were to exist and be
In all reality’s simplicity
I could talk to you forever
To help me face the weather
And to decide on the best action
And keep me from vile distraction
I’d ask you for all the help I might need
For all advice...

Blood Mad
Oo-ar, ooh-ar Farmer in the court
Farmer in the court
Ooh-ar, oohey-ar Framer in thy court.
Let me sing you a ditty,
Of a time so very pretty,
With fair maidens voyaging upstream,
Don't forget the Andes!
How's that?
So folly me follow
Down to the hollow
And there let us wallow in gorious blood.
Blood, glorious blood
Nothing quite like it for caking the mud
Rousing the rabbles
And turning the tah-bles (tables)
There let us scrabble
In notorious Blood!

I can Love you, I can Kill you
I can Love you, I can Kill you
I can heal you, I can Disease you
That is if I did love you truly, madly, deeply
That is when I kill you fully and completely
I can’t love you; I just want you
I don’t need you; except to feel you.
If we were to meet on another street
I could lie and be open to deceit
Only so that I could keep you
And maybe control and subdue too
You can see the best and the worst
That drives my hunger and my thirst.
You are so beautiful and pure
But you already know I’m sure
And this makes me sick...

Wanting Duality
Passion Suppressed
Memory Oppressed
the Soul now Distressed.
I Thought I did my Best
Now to Become a Beast
the Poet not Impressed.
In Madness I Seek Sanctuary
but Fall to more Sin and Debauchery.
Meaning Forgotten
the Heart turned Rotten.
Changed for Eternity
Hating, Loathing all in Infinity
Paranoia, Anger, Greed, Envy growing Infinitely.
Just Seeking Simplicity
to Live or Love in Duality
and not
Alone

Ode for Sheogorath
Ode for Sheogorath
Come swim with the Birds and the Bees
And Gods flying in their threes
And logical Minded monkeys in the trees
Thank you but no Please!
You try to Halt and put it all on freeze
Here is the Daedric Prince, on your Knees
But you’ve been touched by the Madness
Just Embrace it with total Gladness
For Madness creates Art
A stage for actors to play the Part
Let it find a place in the Heart
Or, face the Retribution and Wrath
Of our rightful Lord Sheogorath
So come dance to the very merry jig

If Gods ruled the world
If Gods ruled the world
No more beaurocracy
Or red-tape stupidity
Falsified democracy
Pointless monarchy
Fat-cat oligarchy
Karma meritocracy?
Merely simplicity
Possibly insanity
Unfettered creativity
Endless possibility
Ruled by tyranny
Of true divinity
Materially existing
Perfectly directing
Endless placating
Freedom inflating
Liberal mating
Minimal hating
End of dictating
Passion sating
Stricture slating
Highest rating
When Gods rule the world.
