POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Killing Fields
My killing fields aren’t
Secluded and quiet
Voices from my past
Scream and whisper
In my head
My killing fields aren’t
Barren and exclusive
Memories lurking, stacked high
Denying, burying them
In my head
My killing fields are
A reality, abused and
Betrayed, I deal with it
Wreaking havoc on others
Definitely not just In my head

Road Map
This body is a
Road map of
Scars, broken bones
Bloody bruises trapped
Under my thin skin
Trace the thin
White marks as
Highways, byways
Leading to and from
My palpable pain

Darkness and Light
Although
He may be the
Light to my
Darkness
He is blinding me
Maybe
Sent to destroy me

Darkness

Debasement
Peel back the
Protective guard
Peer into my
Putrid soul to find a
Painful debased life

THIS IS MY WAR
THIS IS MY WAR
People underestimate my ability
Cut them out of my life
With complete ruthlessness
(When they fuck me over.)
Complicity and lying by omission
Carries the same penalty
Assailants, traitor and spies.
No burden of proof,
Already found guilty and sentenced.
No mercy.
No immunity, adjudication or prisoners in my war.

Adjusting
I envy people who
Can just accept life
While I am constantly
Trying to adjust to it
One is done willingly
One in order to survive
