Facing Demons
I have walked through the bowels of hell,
And I have talked with the demons that dwell,
Their tongues hissed with boiling salt
And their mouths spewed fire, that did not halt,
With one gesture, they rained brimstone upon me,
And shrouded me in darkness such that I could not see
My own hand in front of my face,
And yet, they did not put me in my place.
In that brief moment, I saw their true form,
And their flies that yearningly swarm,
Awaiting the rotten flesh with which they were accustomed,
So excited, as if they were...
And I have talked with the demons that dwell,
Their tongues hissed with boiling salt
And their mouths spewed fire, that did not halt,
With one gesture, they rained brimstone upon me,
And shrouded me in darkness such that I could not see
My own hand in front of my face,
And yet, they did not put me in my place.
In that brief moment, I saw their true form,
And their flies that yearningly swarm,
Awaiting the rotten flesh with which they were accustomed,
So excited, as if they were...

To Beget is To Recycle
Pain begets pain, how could I be confused with someone sane
So much taken by those that should had loved, so much to regain
My emotions are circling a toilet, my heart can feel the pain
Fallen tears are used to fill the bowl and help with the drain
What is a guardian, should this word be so flagrantly used
Especially when those with this title choose to abuse
Verbally the scorn and put their wards down
Profanity and negativity beating on eardrums with a tomtom sound
You can't do this and you can't do that
You're to fucking skinny or...

The Sound of my Voice
Talk sounding trite, of one who stammers. Stuttering speech a teacher can't reach or alter. Excessive is the theme of repetition of words. Fumble, feeling clumsy, stupid on the spot.Falter, sputter, jabber, pause and repeat then rewind...trying to say it one more time. This is the long drawn out sound of a voice that Stutters. Twisted is the dry lips, stress is the mask one wears and beads of sweat is the workout. Yammering, jammering as the audience heards trying to follow. The whole show presents a see-saw of ups & downs. One sentence spoken takes one hour of a nightmare that clings...

The insipid nature of a lesser poet.
There's softness to the edges
where battered bruises swell
stagnation wreaks of havoc
as bitterness shows it's tell
Fraught of curious cruelties
left strewn all laissez-faire
piercing blistered lashes
wielded sans a thought or care
Cloaked of cursed shadows
casting lines to widely catch
hooking hatred with barbed wire
smallness knowing it's outmatched
Bile sowing discord
becomes urgent breath to bate
sounding off in tempered tantrums
only ends in your own sealed fate

Don't Mess With Longhorns
I'm always trying to be rather terse,
Polished, mannerly, but I'm still fierce,
And trying to be quick to the point when I speak,
As well as kind, when I speak.
Y'all took me at my word,
Listened to every kind, and every pained word,
All about the almost ten years of subtle gaslighting from my "step-dad",
About the social anxiety you knew I had
(And still do)
And about how my crushes are usually much older, too,
So this is undoubtedly true,
Though you didn't see my day-to-day character,
You knew I...

Empathy
the ability to
understand and share the feelings
of others
This was too long for the Author's note so I am just putting it here.
When someone paints you as a monster or other things it's not nice. If someone feels like they need to kick me more because I said that then do what you need to I guess. I had to send someone a message due to an issue and it was hard because in this case I didn't think they meant anything bad by it and I continued to stress about how to address it because I didn't want them to feel bad. Turns out it was just...

I Escaped, But Only Just - Part 17: The Start Of Real Danger
The first sign of trouble came with the ringing of the front doorbell halfway through a Saturday afternoon. A couple of girls stood there, aged around sixteen or seventeen.
‘Yes, hello?’ I said, frowning.
‘Hi,’ one of them said. ‘We're Jane and Wendy, friends of Nicky’s.’
Their names sounded familiar. Nicky attended the Jewish Youth Club on the corner of the street, but wasn’t Jewish himself.
‘Do you want to come for a cup of tea?’ Jane said.
A flicker of unease. A girl with long ginger hair looking out at me through the front...
