Could you do it
If
Push comes to shove
would you do it
In a life or death situation
no time to think
only attack
for blood
Well...let's slow things down a little
let's start with a few questions
Ready...set...go!!!
Are you violent?
Do you get angry easily?
Could you attack someone?
Could you do it?
Could you murder?
Or rather
should you do it?
Again...let's slow down
too many fucking questions
need some meditation huh
Okay
here's a thought
Mankind is flawed
animals reach an equilibrium with...

Wish list for a new home
Science wants another home
cause we fucked up our own
hey!look...a rhyme!
so here is my wishlist
We need a bigger planet
preferably the size Jupiter
just to fit all our stuff there
You know:
dildos
war axes
slaves
shopping malls
and women
Then naturally with one
that has tons of radiation
because we all know
that' how people get super powers
fact
A planet preferably with
just to say
"HAH! I was right!"
or if it could say
"You were wrong"
If it could have a...

This is normal
His birth was a normal birth
that is it
his parents are crazy
their own real treasure
This is normal
Dad ignored its cries,
Mom ignored its cries,
they ignored it all together
in fact
their baby,
was called "It"
This is normal
2 years later...
only then did they glance at him
It craving their attention
that drug,
the attention
This is normal
The childhood was far from normal
It's room decorated like a cell
for future accommodation
that It would grow to like,
possibly...

Migraines
Think about an unimaginable pain
then place it on a body part
then concentrate that in a very small area
then double it
Migraine meet people
made of pure unrivaled evil
To describe this with words
measure the pain ranging from
1 to 10
and this is what a typical night is

In between all that
there's taking pills,
avoiding every form of sound and light,
being calm to writhing in pain...

It's weird
It's weird
how some blend into the walls
their clothes
furnishing the furniture
their words
matching the words of their poster
their movements,
being memorized and unmotivated
It's weird
how others do not blend into walls
their clothes,
blatantly defying the building
their words,
a scrambled mess lacking meaning
their movements,
being unrehearsed and spontaneous
That's not the weird bit though,
both people
being very different
who will never try to be the other
whilst criticizing...

Time
Fuck monsters
Fuck vampires
Fuck werewolves
Fuck spiders
Fuck clowns
Fuck drug lords
and fuck the supernatural
We were wrong
Those things aren't scary
not compared to this face
facing you,
two hands one direction
Yep its that fickle motherfucker
we all know as time
You don't need it
its there
You need it
and bam!
none is left
You make a mistake
sorry but you're too late
constantly pushing you into a future
you're not ready for
pushing you into a future
of the inevitable

Cursed
In a small town
no money
and even less hope
hopeless
He slides in it
right from wrong is blurred
right gets him a black eye
wrong gets him food
Kicked,
punched,
strangled,
and beaten from house to house
No place like home
the heart got left there
perhaps bits and pieces of it
he left in each house
His own personally desert
the concrete sand
the dune buildings
the mocking sun
His only permanent clothes
are his skin
his fragile barrier
scars showing stories
Then we...
no money
and even less hope
hopeless
He slides in it

right gets him a black eye

My friend crazy
"Are you crazy?!?"
Sup; you crazy bastard"
"Have you taken your meds lately"
"You really are crazy man"
6 months in this,
this hell hole
appropriately named
Mental
Hospital
the mental bit anyway
Then there is the
C word
my friend's name
Crazy
Nobody sees him
Not the cops
Not the doctors
Not the nurses
Not Nobody
Does Crazy torture?
Yeah...
but the waitress was slow
and then bitched about the tip
stupid bitch!
Does Crazy lie?
Yeah......

Grilled cheese
Ready to get hot?
so hot it might just burn!
hmmmm
Hey sexy!
I see you
the steam engulfing perfection
as your door slowly opens
Bit by bit
revealing beauty
bit by bit
I am drooling
bit by bit
your show starts
Savoring your cologne
from feet to head
licking every inch
ready for a hickie
Tasting your flesh
your rough exterior
ready to penetrate
your vulnerable side
Starting slowly in bed
then speeding up,
tears rise from your heat
nervous sweat from your heart
It...
so hot it might just burn!
hmmmm
Hey sexy!

Guts,a grinder and a whole lotta fun
awakening the grinder
metal on metal
grinding gears
flying sparks
Body after body
hooked by the nose,
hooked by the eye,
hooked by the mouth,
awakening the grinder
Man in a bath
choked down to the floor
alive-but not for long
staring at a big pipe
waiting to take away his life
Endless blood
chopped up guts,
Oozing organs,
Tiny teeth,
Bone breaking bones ,
Severed Skin,
and flesh
fail to quench the grinders thirst
Relentlessly pouring in
and down the vibrating pipe
squeling under...

This meaningless piece
It may be meaningless
well
meaning without meaning
definition-none
noone home
well
some meaning may slip by
like water leaking through an old roof
into an old room
down a basement
with a one eyed ghost
followed by the ground
passing ufo
treasures
bunkers
and 12m sour worms
filling an underground lake
sheltering weird creatures
well
weird?
weird relative to what?
to who?
to whom it may concern?
So jellyfish
fucked up creatures
without leaking water
sheltering it ...

Eye see you
Staring at a blury point
then looking at a blue eye
then blank
Followed by extreme pain
slow and sharp
cutting the nerves away
Hearing the blade
bang around the eye socket
careful not to burst it
Pulling on the eye
feeling the last strands of nerves
snapping like ropes
The pain
is like ripping off a limb
from stretch to snap to nothing
It then shows me that
that eye!
my eye!
sticking it on a fork,
biting into it
It then writes on a small piece of paper
it shows me what it wrote...
then looking at a blue eye

Followed by extreme pain
slow and sharp
cutting the nerves away
Hearing the blade
bang around the eye socket

Pulling on the eye

The pain
is like ripping off a limb
from stretch to snap to nothing
It then shows me that
