Social Awareness
We have contrived far too long
Disregarding far too much
Responsibility long overdue
We have abandoned far too long
Assuming far too much
Hoping our cluelessness will see us through
We have hated far too long
Hurting far too much
Feelings of compassion stripped away
We have followed far too long
Denying far too much
Responsibility has gone astray
We have accused for far too long
Condemning far too much
Never really able to accept
We have suspected far too long
Distrusting far too much
Our distaste...
Disregarding far too much
Responsibility long overdue
We have abandoned far too long
Assuming far too much
Hoping our cluelessness will see us through
We have hated far too long
Hurting far too much
Feelings of compassion stripped away
We have followed far too long
Denying far too much
Responsibility has gone astray
We have accused for far too long
Condemning far too much
Never really able to accept
We have suspected far too long
Distrusting far too much
Our distaste...

mine to keep
sadness looms inside my soul
I know not what causes it
lingering in the shade of my sacredness
covered with fragmented memories
sorrow keeps company with me
my love's depth cannot be measured
I ache with it
melancholy feelings tell me all I need to know
keening for the moments lost
I weep in dread
it is my fate
to carry this pain
I give it suckle
feed it my life's essence
emptiness carries me lonely, down the road
alone in the scorn
I am a misfit of the universes
I was sent here to...

Nothing
Could this be the night
That I finally let go?
Something isnt feeling right
Im not the "me" I know
My thoughts are always dark
But...thats not what I feel
Theres a difference and its really stark
I want to die for real
The emptiness has taken hold
Theres nothing else within
Running loose uncontrolled
This time it might just win
Im trying really hard to care
Yet feel nothing at all
No fear, no sadness, no despair
No emotions big or small
Just a complete and total Indifference ...

Tame
The whipping wind
is a clamorous opposition
of the soft seducing breeze.
We are just trying to contain peace
in our hearts
in a brutal world.
Amongst humans hideous actions,
there are beautiful motiveless gestures.
Like thorns on a rose,
The ignorant
polish their own lives.
Along the path of apathy,
can be found great empathy.
Can the gentle tame the harsh?
and then -
I feel it.
The delightful breeze prevails.
The vehemence of the wind fled.
I walk forth......

Recycled
Regurgitated drivel not so cleverly disguised in rearranged formats, different words-
same meaning.
Love, Loss, Loneliness, Repeat.
Establishment has its drawbacks. There is nothing new to lament, or rejoice. It’s all been done.
admiration, adoration, atonement. redemption.
I’m
bored.

Not for Nothing but this Site is Pretty Boring Lately
Listen up fuck bags
Do I have to do everything?
I was so bored that I even wore pants today
Which is weird because I work remotely
Bunker on the corner of 4th and Long
Personal Foul for roughing the kicker
Do you get my drift ?
I didn't think so
Listen a lot of good poets left
But you remain and I remain
It's our job to keep rocking it
Write about Ring Dings, just write
I'm taking a Vaginal vacation
Two scoops of Trans Fat
Gluten holiday in Transylvania
Dark Stout, blow jobs and rodeo
She's sizzle...

ER CRITICAL CARE TRAUMA UNIT A
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Chaos of deafening screams
Reality has fled, left with only daydreams
Here I stand in mental confusion
Tears of disillusion
God help me please
Souls dropping today to their knees
Anyone have a tissue
Blood, guts, no glory, no wishes
As a nurse, is my existence mended into someone else’s pain
Last breath, last rites, never to feel or see the rain
God, I look to you each and every day
People have love, faith, yet, for the...

Poetic Kill
depression, stress and boredom
so, go link, " suicidal thoughts.com "
end your life, once and for all
and rest in piece, for God's sake !!!
'' stop complaining, no more wailing.''
poetry is language that is really living
stop your massacre, words are screaming
in your pen, on virgin page deflorated
how many miles must a honeybee travel
while you in lust and in tears revel,
to bring you nectar's sweetest potion
that you curse, and chew a poison weed
'' Stop complaining ! ''
what...

Every Day's Strangeness
A strangeness resides
in all the day’s hours
every day it dances
in the periphery of our eyes
a stranger’s sunny smile
a brief glance
a world of something
unfolds reaching out
there are connections
in fingers touching
giving or taking the change
from a serial killer or a saint
the raindrops that fall on dark streets
the lonely man under the umbrella
may think of a warm hearth
or perhaps an impending death
there are strangeness
in everyday places
the bark of a dog
about to...
