Blasphemy
darkness slick with rage
sweaty, tangled mess of flesh
teeming with energy
writhing bites at the bit
Silenced rebellion, a hellion of sorts
growls then spits ash
A hellhound is loosed
receiving orders from down South
running through the night
grumbling through the severity
An intense yearning fuels
And the hunt begins
Soft laughter can be heard
The hound is livid
Perhaps a dare on the wind
Nose to the air, he breathes in shadows
Securing his target
a tangy smell he detects
Fresh...

recede
depression makes me alter
I shift inside, dying
Becoming quieter, I withdraw
until I can no longer hear my internal voice
It is with regret that I go
sinking into a black hole
silenced and alone
My thoughts listen
As the others take over
with curiosity, I listen to their conversations
The others walk for me when I don't want to
With observations, they make me laugh
Their interest in my world is unclear
they view it with otherworldly intensity
My soul is locked inside me deeply
thoughts of...

real
With a razor blade tongue, I cut
slicing through the carnage
The brutality of emotions, people are cruel
My words are sharp from practice
cutting through the shit
You know where you stand
Real quick if you stand up for yourself
Don't sneer at the ring leader
My dear, didn't you know she's boss
She tells you what to wear
and how to talk
What to write and whom to love
down to matching bras
In the shadows, there is freedom
to be who you are
hurt feelings perhaps
But I think it goes deeper than...

deeper
Disastrous thoughts collide within me
to face it head-on or bury it
a thistle of thorns, my cloud
My happiness, taken by an awful feeling
shrouded in gloom, it picks
Dreaded doom, it flowers
It's anxiety's trick and power
terrorizing my peace of mind
Thoughts of a dangerous nature threaten
My soul huddles against it
It's unnatural how homey the dark feels
honesties glare burns
hideous understanding
I am the devil of my own making
crisis of faith turns me mute
With nothing to answer against it ...
to face it head-on or bury it
a thistle of thorns, my cloud
My happiness, taken by an awful feeling
shrouded in gloom, it picks
Dreaded doom, it flowers
It's anxiety's trick and power
terrorizing my peace of mind
Thoughts of a dangerous nature threaten
My soul huddles against it
It's unnatural how homey the dark feels
honesties glare burns
hideous understanding
I am the devil of my own making
crisis of faith turns me mute
With nothing to answer against it ...

fret
Darkness dread, my fear is fed
In the gothic gloom, squander
Feelings take a toll
expending them freely
leaves one with a dull ache
emptiness ensues with fretful thoughts
I'm not liked of this, I'm sure
spurned affections answer for me
Little lady, so bare
Cover your nakedness
a multitude of imperfections we see
needful redemption afflicted sorrow
Be it now or on the morrow
When you realize your folly
incessant chatter rankles my nerves
It's as if the bleak is giving a sermon
to which there is...

a harp upon my madness
The bedlam on me, I weep notes of despair
They were broken pieces of my sacredness
thrumming the harp upon my soul of madness
My heart strings out of tune with the other beings
sang a melody of melancholy and insanity
visions blur, and I ache with regret
building my delusions one by one
climbing the music into the heavens
refusing to descend
A choir of angels joins me
And my heart they did defend
my weathered sadness their hearts rend
with tearful maladies and much chagrin
My thoughts found their way home...

want not
Adieu, my old friend, it is with bitter regret I say goodbye
The wards of the doors are closing
The Mistress of the underground is guarding the way
sacred vision while the poets disperse
The shadows are weary, and yet they keep them
from burning by a sun too bright
My tears scorch my face
My poetry puddled at my feet
bloodletting over all these years
to be remembered by my soul
The powers that be carried me here
Those many years ago
a place cherished, my anxiety relieved
Stoic silence ensues
No one wants...

curves
my thoughts convulse dreaded lust
with no control, like driving with no brakes
swerving on a windy highway
We're going to crash into each other
with my dangerous curves
Your green eyes are saying go
my need builds as we careen along
kissing holy fuck, the desire
your stoic need speaking my she demon into being
Moving fast, we move onto my hot spots
my blush aching for you
With denial, I'm feeling you, my creamy essence, says otherwise
bare of faith, you know you are my religion
worshipping at your cock ...
with no control, like driving with no brakes
swerving on a windy highway
We're going to crash into each other

my immortal
in the meantime pining for you
my darkness grew weary
and said hello, my dear. I am here to keep you company
my sadness swell and I said you can go to hell
the dark answered this won't do
Now hush, buttercup, or do you like it rough?
We're going to do this either way
Let us converse about your special affections
He doesn't care about you the way we do
Let us entertain you
Mimicking my man, they made me laugh
at his serious nature
an affliction is need, and I am steeped in sorrow

drift
drifting through time, I expand my view
with visions of eternity
exhaling stars and inhaling moons
my mind wraps around the cosmos
a burst of energy and I am at the beginning
Where it all began
an eye winks open as if from a long slumber
a prophet, the first prophet
seeing what was to come with great excitement
Some dreams were fearsome, and the angels shudder
screaming birth the formation of a galaxy
yawning dawn when light was formed
a dappled formation a fledgling attempt
with fits of rage when things...

Some dreams were fearsome, and the angels shudder

deadly
burning with a feeling
Felatio the need and make it bleed
with fangs out and dripping precum
tasting you heat on the air
my lust builds, I can sense your fear
yes my dear sweet to hunt
and tasty to fuck
Sweating bodies meld
an aphrodisac of desire
you crave the monster I covet your willingness
entering into an understanding
you ejaculate inside me
such a rush feeling you exalted for a moment
until I sink my teeth into your tender member
sucking you yes my love that feel good?

cloudy
getting in rhythm with myself, my mind spins
my thoughts turn dark, and I internalize
intellectualize my feelings
There doesn't seem like an excuse for them
sky-scraping with my intent
ends up dumpster-diving with my dreams
hateful emotions they sell me short
the weather inside me looks bleak
A flash flood warning means I'm going to cry
threatening clouds form in my eyes
Don't look at me; it's obvious I'm about to break
sincerely confused
My self-worth is in the pits
seeking insanity as a place to shelter ...
