People on the Take .
I have been taken for a fool so
many times . That's is what happens
when you are too kind and caring.
Some would say a people pleaser.
Now though it has made me reflect
I want to not let my anger set in
because I will be the only person
who will suffer . I am not a victim
I was too much of a trusting human
a bit of a day dream believer
which made me a tool for giving
away to much . To people who quite
frankly didn’t give two fucks .
I was more of a hippy love peace
and all that shenanigans, it doesn’t
work ....

ill-fated
The Ill-fated
after the bombing
dead children everywhere
like an exploding dollmaker's
factory
Tomato sauce and noodles
a parade of the inhuman
Presidents are helpless
their country is helpless
while they slept
all power lost
A chorus arises, and songs
drown in thunder
We are the masters
we were the chosen
Cumulus clouds
will ask we see and hear
doomed humanity
Shivering, we wait for
the last bomb to drop
after the bombing
dead children everywhere
like an exploding dollmaker's
factory
Tomato sauce and noodles
a parade of the inhuman
Presidents are helpless
their country is helpless
while they slept
all power lost
A chorus arises, and songs
drown in thunder
We are the masters
we were the chosen
Cumulus clouds
will ask we see and hear
doomed humanity
Shivering, we wait for
the last bomb to drop

The Good, Obedient Girl
"Go in that position, baby."
"Yeah, just like that."
"That's a good little girl."
Diana's father spoke these words often, entangling her in a web of lies. Incest, sex, and so many horrible lies.
It's her fault. She didn't scream, so it doesn't count.
She took pity on him, and he took advantage of her empathy.
Both her parents in some way were pulling the strings.
To make her into mommy and daddy's perfect little girl.
Dare she might a single sound, they'd scream at her and...

Lovesick
I weep
For a love lost
In the shadows
Of a vapid night
Ours was a tune
Played in blissfull grace
Till the time
You were lured away
It was all too much
The dancing firelight
On sensuous shores
Turning darkness into light
I called in vacuumed screams
Beware
They're not what they seem
Thrilling ecstasy is hard to penetrate
From a chilled soaking rain
Always searching for
A way to ease the pain
So I wait
In tempestuous silence
For your abated...
For a love lost
In the shadows
Of a vapid night
Ours was a tune
Played in blissfull grace
Till the time
You were lured away
It was all too much
The dancing firelight
On sensuous shores
Turning darkness into light
I called in vacuumed screams
Beware
They're not what they seem
Thrilling ecstasy is hard to penetrate
From a chilled soaking rain
Always searching for
A way to ease the pain
So I wait
In tempestuous silence
For your abated...

Rockabilly
Old Timers made
me go trip down
memory lanes
back to the time
life was amazing
cruising around
while listening
to johnny cash
& the stray cats
going to parties
car meetings &
weddings it felt
as if i was part
of a marvelous
rockabilly family
sharing love for
oldtimers, music
& vintage clothes
i cherish that time
& my rockabilly life
bittersweet memories
with a Tear and a Smile
me go trip down
memory lanes
back to the time
life was amazing
cruising around
while listening
to johnny cash
& the stray cats
going to parties
car meetings &
weddings it felt
as if i was part
of a marvelous
rockabilly family
sharing love for

A Confidante
I did not know you not really.Yet somehow,
I told you my inner secrets of the haunting kind and embarrassing too. Makes my toes curl and a little sick on the inside at times. I am not even sure why I do not trust a single soul, but it lays in my history I think more like a battle with hope and honesty that sort of thing. I contemplate about our conversations of the texting sort technology is such a wonderful thing.
You do not even have to be there it is just buttons and letters and a ping. I think though it gives you a sense of confidence like it is make believe. And...

Death Penalty Last Statement
This was my last statement to ever redeem myself...
And finally I just spoke. And I was not afraid.
Death was at my door, and here it was.
"I know people will look at me and assume I was just that monster. That monster who killed and took away lives. But please, if there's anything that you can learn from this, I want everytime that you remember my face, you'll see a kid who just wanted to be loved. It's not for sympathy. But please...understand that abused kids like me are suffering, and I want you to see the signs before it's too late... I'm so...

it doesn’t have to be like this
and the wind from the pyre
caresses my waist
like you did on the foyer
forget how you taste
caresses my waist
like you did on the foyer
forget how you taste

My Old Soul, Your Young Heart
Wistful dreams shall never part.....
...through the years, I've thought of you
and once upon a starry night
you simply came to me
right out of a gentle blue light.....
…...drenched memories,
forbidden ( I touched you)
and for that I apologize for what I'd
almost done
remembering the moment
that you looked in my eyes
knowing that an enchantment was growing....and one day you could be the one
my“now or later”
…..you disappeared into the night ...

High Tide
My rolling seas
Crashed
Into his dynamic lifeforce
My longing
To be
Violently claimed
Before the eventual
Ebb that always befalls us
Flooded him
With every reminder
Every fiber
Every last drop of memory
Retreating
I was Left on the fringes
Of us
As purgatory
Engulfed
Me
Crashed
Into his dynamic lifeforce
My longing
To be
Violently claimed
Before the eventual
Ebb that always befalls us
Flooded him
With every reminder
Every fiber
Every last drop of memory
Retreating
I was Left on the fringes
Of us
As purgatory
Engulfed
Me

Cortisol
Yes I was seeing the pages of my diary
You were cortisol
Every day full injection
Coming with a brand well designed signature
And expensive package
If I could turn back the time
I would undo you
Delete every byte
That in an alternative universe
Would not be there.

Viking Forged
A bitter cold breaks the lens of a soul
suffering, blinding it to the wondrous
colors of light refracted by the echos of
happier times and fond memories
The agony of a death not yours pours a monochromatic monotony about the day
as blurred visions whisper of loss and
denial, still he forges on, until Valhalla
They grey skies lurk about as they are
reflected by the troubled waters, this
rambunctious inner child gives way to a
man hurting, there is no sanctuary
He stands from what was a kneeling
position,...
suffering, blinding it to the wondrous
colors of light refracted by the echos of
happier times and fond memories
The agony of a death not yours pours a monochromatic monotony about the day
as blurred visions whisper of loss and
denial, still he forges on, until Valhalla
They grey skies lurk about as they are
reflected by the troubled waters, this
rambunctious inner child gives way to a
man hurting, there is no sanctuary
He stands from what was a kneeling
