Drawing A World
Bitterness runs through his arrogant veins
So he chose to push his own daughter away
She's drawing a world where hope remains
And her father chose to love instead of decay

What a dumb shit!
When he found out how things really were between men & women
He was shocked how cutthroat both sexes were to one another
It was a drag to find out that everybody knew all the same shit and everyone played it off like it was nothing
All the things that go unsaid
They get shoved into your guts like cutlery
All the bullshit sex etiquette
It's like a miniature cold war
What a bunch of lies & ego trips
That's why all these people were so freaked out about each other
It's one big club
The look away & laugh club
A revelation the size...

cut the dark with fits of rage
it flairs before I can catch it's tail
then it hides deep within me
repressed feelings or hate?
I don't know
I express what I feel or sense
but my mind can only wrap around so much
flooded with thoughts foreign to my own
I get confounded with emotion
channeled in or drip fed I look away and still I see
the wraiths that haunt me
it's no coincidence that I can feel you with every wave
if I am created so differently?
do I bare the blame of receiving information? ...

Renovations
The water is cold
and the entire thing feels
like a mockery of
something pure.
Your chin is on my hair,
my hitching breath
vibrates in my shoulder blades
and you whisper
shhhhhhhh
Both of our asses are asleep
from curling around each other
on this cold,
dirty
floor
But fuck,
you hated yourself enough
to put your arms around me again
And it is
a fucking shambles.
I’m sure any minute the floor...

How will you know
They say that through this passage of life, we will go through somethings in order, to get the full true understanding of how life truly works, whether for you are against you in search of what you want and need. How will you know that the next person, 🤔 that tries to walk into your life and world. YOU have to learn to listen, not to only what they say, but what they came to do, for if they ain't coming in your life with a positive attitude with real communications skills. TO articulate to you and show you there honestly and truth and trust, just stop and look and listen not to your...

Frontlines
I was enlisted in a battle
I should have never fought
This war was created by you
Over silly insecurities and for what
I told you to bring the pain
Bring the tears
Bring the joys
Bring all the fears
You added to this list I must fight
You brought anger into this plight
I was on the front lines
Doing what I needed to do
Throwing every arsenal, I have
Just to get through to you
If I had already lost this war
Why even walk across my line
If there is someone else out there
Willing to...

It's the Last Time I'll put Gum in your Hair with KristinaX
Paint me a picture damnit!
Make it shine so I can see it in the dark.
No pressure, just a black hole crushing your soul.
Pulling you into my intensity. It's my physics...
Man, I love it when you hit me hard
Command me to do shit
I need to be pushed around sometimes
My head is locked between your thighs
Only when you beg me to
And I love telling you what to do
But you love to push me so hard don’t you?
You aren’t getting loose until I let you
Don't let me up
Squeeze harder
Artists need to suffer
Pain...

~the murmurs of a forest..
her silvery anklets of midnight
tinkles shrilly as an eerie metal
…as she whispers… chants some
incomprehensibly luring hush hush
verses of.. a what. sacred hymns
or curses of a black magic?
she in a non-stopping spree
scratches her bio- weaponised
curly overgrown finger nails..
over the pleading silent walls
in an unbearably ear-shying
to its screechy sirening violence
of a tearing~ bleeding frequencies
she even dare enters your lazy cozy
bedcovers … housing the snoring
sleepy you.. lifts...

By Divine Command
By divine command we’ve been told to take this land
And it doesn’t matter who is already there
Because a greater power has told us that it is ours
It’s a directive that sounds right and fair…
And yet something weighs heavy on my conscience
To see that many innocent people dying on the streets
Seeing families being forced out from their homes
Women and children searching for something to eat
Like the homeless man who comes by the neighborhood
Digging through the trash in the rain and mist
Being pushed out by the cops because he...

Love to a Gunfight
"We're bringing love to a gunfight."
~ Janiva Magness
Your enemies are your greatest teachers
—the ones who step on your triggers
revealing wounds that haven't yet healed
Each lesion that re-lacerates history
is an opportune time to decide
how we're going to react or reply
There are no coincidences in life
nor mistakes, only experience
lessons to spiritually advance
Thank those who perceive you
their adversary—their gift
is the greatest...

lack of appetite
this is faint-astic
and in-cunt-prehensible
way out of the real cap a city
give some room
to the space extent range
in the scope of a hole sun of a compass
sorry, no pun intended...
die, motherfucker, die.

Jailhouse Rock
English courts are stars and garters
As American courts give fines
Mostly to trailer park martyrs
When an indiscretion inclines.
So why are the English better
In matters of jurisprudence
Like timely use of a fetter
Or, implementation of fence?
I suspect old puritan stock
And all their angry descendants
Perversely crave to punish a flock
Of low rent codependents.
But now that the internet's here
They can worship something gracious
Such as a midnight sonneteer
And his elegance capacious,
Which recommends more...
