POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My name is ken. I am my own wall constantly climbing in life. I wish to re-kick start my love(as well as my hate) for writing and get some content going.
Self resolve (mirrored sin)
Dear mothers, dear fathers, dear siblings of woe
Were art thou in the presence of your foe?
Breeding and adapting, but in all the wrong ways.
And yet you whine about your life being in dismay.
So let me set this straight in your whole yard of eight
We whine about things in statuses to for emotions to deflate?
And what about the vicious cycle of continuing hate,
and the drama that bit you, a piece of you it ate?
Lets be sick. Let us be done we have had our fun.
Nothing is more infuriating than insanity...

the poisoned mind (hope and dream)
Anger is said to the poison of ones self, an infliction for the hate of others. Sadness as a deep hole and a long, winding tunnel of darkness. Emotions however just seem like tunnels and hills and ever volatile terrains of mixed extremes.
It is not easy to let my emotions go. There have been attempted murders to it, suppression, even sticking to one feeling. Seems it is impossible. Looking at the laughter, the joy, anger and sadness that still carry on upon the vast plain of humanity still carry on…at least what is left of it.

Minds Reflection in the Heart
In the murky reflection I stare at myself and others on the bus. Observing the happiness and joy, the boredom, And the sadness that comes across the faces of those sitting across from me. I think to myself “why must we wear these masks every day? To simply just forget ourselves and who we are to exist for someone else?”
As I continue to delve in the dark reaches of my mind the emotions continue to spiral down ward threatening to Become the plane crashing into the heart with a fiery evil of angst against myself. I think: “do we have to be afraid of trivial things in front of our...

The Technical Choice
Feast on this world inside
Ones and zeros and coding arise
Your alone, but yet you are not
Go on facebook and let your eyes rot
Reality is now seemingly an illusion
Your phone is a hand-held portal
Those tablets set with vast information
The horizon doesn't seem to end
Perceptions of social cues bend
And what of the habits made?
Can't we find this digital world a charade?
Yet the partiers continue to parade
From politics to porn- can we not be saved?
And who are you? Who am I?...

Of Pies and Lies
Oh my how many tries
How many times to eat these pies
So delicious and malicious
Bundled with their sugar coated crusts
This treat was always a must
Its filling with lies
The poison feels so good
Including the cherry that is even on top
Good 'till the last drop
When will this stop?
Does this not fill the void where hunger runs?
Will this help me feel better to forget my troubled woes?
Running out of this confectionery delight
I can't sleep as my body hungers tonight
Am I blind at what bothers me tonight?...

Rhythm of Love (Heart Stopping Fear)
I'm afraid to tell you my heart has stopped beating
Scared to tell you my emotions are bleeding
Inside I am melting
Agony
doubtful mind
Am I being blind?
Is it silly I want to tell you my secrets within?
That I want to know more about you and the things your in?
Is it too much to ask for this sin?
There are nights that I dream when I'm alone
For a place where I might want to call home
but would you make that come true?
Pull me from the bottom of this well
Please drag me out of this hell
Make me forget the hardships of...

A love Unknitted
Your eyes drown me in the deep blue sea
Far away in distant degrees
No dream could muster this feeling fire
Or the flutter of the lungs going higher and higher
Time only seems to stand still
Awaiting your mysterious moves
Your hypnotic grooves
And your beauty that makes it all smooth
The skin is fair
Beautiful is your hair
More so your laugh
With kindness that can't be graphed
I know time hasn't been long
And not enough yet to make a song
But in still view my heart has been shot
No bullet could pass though feelings...

The Bloody Ball
A waltz to the dead
Form in the circles
The ritual is ahead
Blood
Sacrifice
Drums
Beats in the midst of silence
Fancy dresses and fancy suits
Faces of white plastic seen
The light shadowing their complexion
Emotions forever unchanging
Step right
Step back
Twirl
To the shadow
Bright is the full moon
On this bloody requiem
Naked women
Starved and beaten men
Fresh is the meat
Silence comes to play
Candles are lit
Darkness crawls from its corners
...

Out of Darkness Into Darkness
18 years of age-
I miss my good friends and the emotions happily married under the sun. The smiling faces and the gleaming eyes are what made my life complete, but now defeat feels like it has emerged as now grew older only to be dragged into darkness by my own shadow. I've hit a wall, and I seem to be that wall.
The walls are so tall reaching to the clouds of my mind. Intimidating and almost impenetrable I dig through inch by inch with a spoon each day. Little sunlight shines though the window of this prison above. I have had violent nightmares and dreams of tension...

From where does it bloom?
My pretty flower
My soul-to be
Where are you now?
I can smell you as soft warm wind picks up
Your colors glow bright in sun
You bring life into my world
Pedals flow gracefully in the wind
Love spreading far yet silent
Its touch soft, but comforting
Seeds planted into the heart
Every day it grows with love and care
With buds eager to come in full bloom
Ripples are cast as leaves hit the water
Reflections of the past and future
Come in full view
Some day when we grow
Tall as trees we will be
Sturdy and...

Election Collection Day
Is it zombie or is it a ghost?
All it can do is hear it boast.
Its burning-red tie,
Yet it contrasts with the cold dark eyes.
It eats and it eats, and eat it does,
Seems so big and so strong
Hair flowing back in shades of gray
This creature it moans and groans so long.
Is it hungry or singing a song?
And out pours the spew of vile acidic liquid.
From the mouth as it mutters.
such a horrific sight as it crawls towards me.
I shutter...shutter....shutter.
Fear as bolted down my spine!
Paralyzed!...
