Fuck fuck fuck fuck
FUCK
that pain
these twisted feelings
What a fucking hangover
what happened last night?
who cares?
why look at the past?
the future can be better
Plan for the worst
Hope for the best
aim
for
the
stars
even if you miss you will be among them
deprived of
oxygen as I may add
dead
dead...
death sounds a bit
tempting
not that I am one of those guys that can
actually
do
it
I am not that brave
But I have to admit
I have been close and I...

Who told you
We are trying to hide behind fake smiles and new clothes, behind expensive restaurants and club jerseys, Instagram photos drown in filters and clever Facebook posts, sitting behind desks for 12 hours doing a job we hate, finding solace in some bad written poems and plays without meaning, masks, all masks to hide the ugly in us.
Who told you;
Who told you you are so ugly?
And why the fuck did you believe them?
Is there anything prettier than the truth?
Is there anything prettier than you?
Who told you;
Who told you you are so ugly?
And why the fuck did you believe them?
Is there anything prettier than the truth?
Is there anything prettier than you?

Derailed
I awake for the day
anxiety I do not feel
For a moment, the thoughts
are empty
Go for a walk, visit with friends,
be productive, enjoy the day
With coffee in hand,
I start to plan
A random thought appears,
making itself known
My mind starts to obsess,
pain in the chest
So it begins
down the spiral
I go
Heart rate rises,
fluttering chest begins
Dizziness takes hold,
it will pass I'm told
The edge of the bed
I begin to enter my head
...

Obsessed with Being Right
She's obsessed with the need to be right
I could care less
I'm happy when she's wrong
She spins out
It's unacceptable to her
For me
It's another excuse to titillate with flogging her
Right or wrong
Your call
Who cares ?
I could care less
I'm happy when she's wrong
She spins out
It's unacceptable to her

It's another excuse to titillate with flogging her

Neurasthenia
maybe could
tattoo my
blood
on my skin
scratch my
DNA
in a frame
by the wall
pieces,
of skin
on the carpet
at the door
forget my
genome
in the song
in good rhythm
without the smell
either motive or end.
scratch my
skin
in the park
at the foot of the mountain,
in the mirror
of my room
where you can't see me...
or in the wind
the nuisance of my fears.
expel my
sweet beyond honey
from my gallbladder
and leave me lost
in...

The Hole
down the rabbit hole I go,
as my thoughts take control,
what will I find
In this hole of mine
the thoughts never end,
is the common trend
my mind is full of fear,
that is all I hear
Let me go! Let me go!
I am trapped in this hole
Mistakes I cannot escape,
let me go! let me go!
I need a new space
as my thoughts take control,
what will I find
In this hole of mine
the thoughts never end,
is the common trend
my mind is full of fear,
that is all I hear
Let me go! Let me go!
I am trapped in this hole
Mistakes I cannot escape,
let me go! let me go!
I need a new space

Number Compulsion, Obtuse Desires, Humidity, Abstracted
That's what I do
Do you see yourself in my obsession ?
The humidity covers me in desire
Paintings created in aura and calculated embraces
AC unit humming in a monotonous roar
Almost singing
I bound you tighter than usual
The rope is new, imported, supply chain issues
Your skin raw from the flagrant foul of sensation
Too much caffeine
You're jumping out of your skin
Twisting, Gyrating, damp
You'll suffer but want more
Always more
We've been here before

bruising on an otherwise pretty body
I lust for you
It's not a day here or there
It's EVERYDAY
It's OBSESSION
I'm REPRESSED
You're a songbird
Flowing in vibe and heat
I'm an outsider
A Loner
A dark cloud hoping for rain
I paint
I do that for you
Do you feel it ?
Do you feel soft allure?
Watercolor
Pastels
Sometimes I'm so lonely
My lust turns negative
Then bruises babe
That's also for you ...

A Brief Glimpse Of Neurodivergence Appears Like A Shaft Of Light In The Photon-Starved Darkness
A world waiting to shatter,
high definition pictures of the atmosphere
pregnant with the crimson bruises
of temporal estrangement
motions destructive
isolation seductive
into the mind's vibrating eye
I journey
a portent of shuddering violence
manifests as a ferocious gristle of fear
torn from this cowardly shipwreck of a soul
and left to rot in the full wicked smile
of the serrated sunlight;
a harmony
turned into stench

neurotic
skip songs
knock three
times precisely
pause microwave
at twenty
five seconds
hit shuffle
can’t listen
to this
song one
more time
again to
even it
out, quick!
turn the
alarm off
the phone
if you’re
too late
you’re dead
don’t lock
the door?
he will
be there
to haunt
with knives
why don’t
they understand?
these compulsions
control.. control..
controls me
i think
can’t get
a grip
a meteor ...

Slowburn
I’ve been noticing
How fkn exhausting it is to
Be the particular way that I am
About things being done
The right way
And I’ve
Been wanting
For a life of higher luxury
To pamper myself with status
Adorning myself with
Earthly desires
Filling the
Void
That stares back
I usually do it with music
Rap has been bumping
To my heartbeat and
Keeping me going
While arousing
Me too
Consuming the
Things I can have because
Right now...

Perfectionism
I'm a perfectionist in every minor, useless, absurd detail. Especially in details, because perfection seems attainable there.
This morning I nearly achieved it. After twenty minutes of fumbling with tweezers, there it was: perfect symmetry. Still, it wasn't as satisfying as I'd hoped. Why? I gave this some thought and came to two conclusions:
1. Focusing on details interferes with the big picture.
2. It's hard to look serious without eyebrows.
