Trapped on an Island Surrounded by Sharks
What is this cold, unbreaking rod?
That whips my back, does poke and prod
The eyes of man do leer and laud
While verbal assaults are met with applaud
A gentle soul, berated and stamped
Their joy is torn and turnt and tamped
And mind enclosed by grip and clamp
Crippled core becoming cramped
Hyenas howl and stones are cast
While wolves circle and rats amassed
The harrowed heard of helpless aghast
Finally succumbing to the thoughts that have passed
That whips my back, does poke and prod
The eyes of man do leer and laud
While verbal assaults are met with applaud
A gentle soul, berated and stamped
Their joy is torn and turnt and tamped
And mind enclosed by grip and clamp
Crippled core becoming cramped
Hyenas howl and stones are cast
While wolves circle and rats amassed
The harrowed heard of helpless aghast
Finally succumbing to the thoughts that have passed

Viscously Perfected.
Was always slow at school.
Was bullied,in and out of school.
"Be strong. There's a lesson to be learned." Was told by some know-it-all.r
Is it a "loving God" that puts a child through much trauma?
All to learn--a "what-- A lesson?"When you grow up!
Sounds cruel to me.
Particularly as history just repeats itself,viciously.

Please keep talking
I've heard this speech a thousand times
Like an old movie
I've watched countlessly
I do love to hear the truth said
So like I have remembered
Time and time again.

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...

cement
it’s hard to feel that you’ve been loved
when your most lasting memories
are of the insults more
than being told that you were loved
to kids a word can leave an impact like
a fingerprint in wet cement
and your mind’s filled with fingerprints…
long since hardened
so that the grooves remain
and so become
characteristics of the whole
a voice telling you
you’re stupid
fat
useless
stays with you and informs
all that you are
when your most lasting memories
are of the insults more
than being told that you were loved
to kids a word can leave an impact like
a fingerprint in wet cement
and your mind’s filled with fingerprints…
long since hardened

and so become

you’re stupid

Social Engineering
You choose to lose your soul in this
But who truly has control of this?
You signal your virtue
But it hurts you
You lose yourself
You lose your mind
You lack judgement of any kind
You bind your edict to this design
You spurn values that don't align
You're black
You're white
You're straight
You're gay
You're him
You're her
You spread decay
You resent the world for what they say
You censor speech; you breed the foist
They recommend which lie to hoist
They repeat the lines that hold...

Diary Of A Hippie
diary of a hippie. it's that time of year, and getting retrospective back to the early 1970's, when there was some great music around, reggae, rock, soul, Bowie, and i was being bullied at school for being a hippie, in a school overladen with skinheads, many of them were quite friendly, but some weren't. and one day, i was surrounded by about 5-6 of them, and told they were going to 'get me' at lunchtime. i decided to scarper, but they had the gate covered, and i got boxed in, and so one of them got gee'd up to beat me up, and all would of gone as usual with me falling to the ground, and...

To see forever
I left the ship at the industrial part of the island
my tour of duty was over and took a taxi to the other side
to take a ferry to town.
At the café near the ferry landing, I drank a few beers glad
my work was done thought about what to do in the coming
days of freedom from the confinement of life at sea.
Since I had hours to wait, I bought a fishing line, hook and
a sinker, as bait, I used banana skin (it was all I had)
The water was so glass clear it appeared limitless I could
see the fishes swimming about and the...

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...

Toxic
Incinerate into ashes
All emotions held for me
I no longer live in your presence
Only in memories
A spectral force
To haunt your waking thoughts
Reckoning with vengance
For the bitterness you wrought
Did you vision the apocalypse
Annihilation in denial
Awhile since your smile
Has dripped with venomous guile
Preposterous poser
Reflected back in the mirror
The albatross followed
While the grave drew nearer
Erased from existence
Found out as a fraud
Couldn't live with the shame ...

Mistaken
I wish I was courageous
The greatest
Living life a shameless
I’m the plainest
The lamest
Some sort of a freak sadist
I wish I was faceless
Vacant
I’m Cycling through the phases
I’m aimless
Anxious
Don’t know what my own name is
Do they think I hate the world?
Categorized the quiet girl
They laugh above, I feel so small
I eat my lunch inside the stall
Call home sick, mom pick me up
I can’t stay here I’ve had enough
I know I’ve been missing too much
They’re wailing on my...
