I muttered prayers
to open stars
on meth strained week-with-no-sleep
evenings trying to get some bearing
on what I wanted
stained clothes and icy pavements
melted asphalt in the summer
the stench of it cloying and thick
my own body caked in a miasma
of sweat and unclean
I opened my wrists to scrawl semantics
write to tear the demons of thought from my psyche try to make sense of what I am
where I came from
all the scars
fractures and moments
are a kaleidoscope of broken
that were followed by...

shadow tangled vines
shadow
tangled vines
wrap themselves
around
my sleep,
delicate
breathing
coming from
my chest,
my dreams
blinking
within each
direction
and
my hands
tied,
whether this
is natural
or unnatural
occurrence,
each thought
works its
way to
the surface,
awakening
i realized
i felt
this way
every time
i thought
of you
walking away.

Killer Kid! 7 Years old and the complete murdering psychopath!
By Stanley Collymore
This lad who at 7 years old quite
callously and uncaringly killed
a sleeping adult who clearly
was absolutely, totally unknown to him
and with whom he'd previously had no
interaction whatsoever, an undeniably
cold blooded murder, rather evidently
for which he wasn't punished neither
has he shown or vaguely expressed
any remorse for what he clearly did
even to the extent, three years later
at still only aged 10, he threatened
very openly, to murder some class
mates of his at the very...

Softly, slowly as the light falls.
Light.
Every good moment begins with pure light.
But like the tides turning,
The light fades into night.
A simple change.
Its just one letter.
One rule changed.
One where all is and one where nothing becomes truer and deeper.
I open my eyes at last.
This year.
This day.
This moment.
I meet my friend again as I breathe in the stiff air of my bedroom.
Another day begun.
Another day to think, to dream, to be.
"You have much to do Mark."
I do!
"We should get up quickly so we don't drift...

Hiding My Pain
Hiding My Pain
I thought that I could let it go
This pain I have inside
I thought I could release it all
Relief to a crazed mind
I thought in time it’d go away
Just fade like memories
This pain is changing who I am
Not who I used to be
I miss when smiles came with ease
Cause now they just feel forced
I miss the way I loved freely
To trust is now a curse
I feel that I am juggling me
The old one with the new
Pretending that I am okay
This lie is now my truth
The secrets they keep...

Comfort Blanket.
A bird was never meant to inhabit a cage. It was given wings to for a reason to spread them and fly freely dipping in and out of the clouds in the sky. That is forsaken in time as the bird accepts its situation with the fleecy attributes of a comfort blanket. Now the bird has forgotten his aerodynamic inclinations and now has no inkling to try and that’s how easy it is. To slide into circumstances, you would have never contemplated let alone live by.

Famous literature?
This Saturday, like many others, I got up late
it was almost ten, my hands trembled,
low blood sugar
I can live with diabetes while keeping the balance
watching what I eat and drink
Last night, fed up with the fake news on TV
where politicians spoke about how bad Russia was and
their undying love for Ukraine while secretly longing
for the days before the North Stream

Love
"....You don't know how much I love you."
If you acknowledge the fact that I don't know,
It is obvious that I cannot really appreciate it
Why don't you show me the really love.

Shatter
Something has been gnawing away
Inside of me these days
Hopeless, pathetic, agony
Suppressed them so I thought
Caught in this self made tragedy
Born from a single spark
A glimmer of hope for something more
A glimpse of greed is all it needed
The rot of turmoil deeply seeded
Sprouted into flowers of despair
Then came forth the rain of doubt
Quenching the thirst of my gullible heart
As salt water does to a thirsty sailor
My house of cards collapsed; a failure
I always thought myself a feeble man
Though this...

Why do you hurt me?
Why does it hurt me so
With every whim
You come and go
It hurts deep inside
Knowing I’m doing everything.
To keep you by my side
I tried to make you laugh
To give you joy
To give you pleasure
Instead, I get nothing
And I am not sure
Why do you hurt me so
I feel it deep in my core
It hurts so much
I feel I will break
Tell me, please
How much more can I take
I’ll sit here and sob in my knees
And try to think
What is it about me
Don’t tell me its you
For if it was
Then I...

NATO
NATO
The secretary general of NATO is a Norwegian
and as most Norwegian's pro-American
and probably selected for his fidelity
He is a tall thin man, likes to run in the woods
and has been observed saluting them while talking
to his elbow
still wearing his confirmation suit which he has
grown out of, he must be a frugal type
at conferences his eyes darts around like a rabbit
caught in the headlight of a car
on these occasions, he has been seen talking to
probably sending a message to his office staff not
to forget...

'The Selfish Man's ADHD"
It’s raining…
The smell is one of the best aromas. I can feel the coolness in the air.
I’m in a desolate land where no one, not even my past, can get near.
The voices are gone, and all that’s left is you.
You, who I’ve put to the side, while I try to learn how to arise to the task I can’t seem to fully satisfy,.
I feel like Hellen Keller because, as much as I see and hear it, it never gets through, and I can’t see it clearly.
In your eyes, I see the tears. Flood gates that are about to burst from the pressure.
Once, these eyes were so full of love. Are...
