It fell from the sky
It spreads through the air
Dissolving the body internally
This can't be cured
You'll die a turbulent death
Pressure building inside your skull
Eyes popped out, fall on the ground
Tympanum burst you bleed from your ears
Spasmodic convulsion, your moribund
Loss of consciousness, body fluids oozing Out
Coagulated blood, punctured lungs erode
Softening of the brain, muscle contractions uncontrolled
Puss filled bruises
Maggots munch your flesh
Cerebral meningitis
Swollen cranium explodes
Malignantly slaughtered ...
Dissolving the body internally

Coagulated blood, punctured lungs erode
Softening of the brain, muscle contractions uncontrolled
Puss filled bruises
Maggots munch your flesh

To, Chris
I miss you alot.
I still text you everyday
I know you cant reply though
But i can't stop myself
I'm not mad at you for leaving me
I know you had to
You had too much hurt to go on any longer
But to be honest it still hurts me
I hate everyone who hurt you
I wish i could've saved you
But I think you had to.
My brain is getting pretty heavy.
Sometimes i get really really tired
The thought of going through the next day makes me shake.
I'm scared.
I don't know what to do anymore.
You were the sweetest boy, you know...
I still text you everyday
I know you cant reply though
But i can't stop myself
I'm not mad at you for leaving me
I know you had to
You had too much hurt to go on any longer
But to be honest it still hurts me
I hate everyone who hurt you
I wish i could've saved you
But I think you had to.
My brain is getting pretty heavy.
Sometimes i get really really tired
The thought of going through the next day makes me shake.
I'm scared.
I don't know what to do anymore.
You were the sweetest boy, you know...

Sacrificial Monolith
Beneath the moon’s unwholesome light
Where shadows coil in endless night
There stands a stone of blackened hue
Carved deep by hands no man e’er knew
Before the Slavs, before the Magyar’s tread
A race debauched, both damned and dread
Did rule these lands with rites obscene
In homage to their shadowed queen
They danced beneath the gibbous moon
To pipe and drum, their foulest tune
Their bodies writhed, unbound by grace
A beast-like, dark, forgotten race
Upon this stone their rites did burn
Where life and flesh to...
Where shadows coil in endless night
There stands a stone of blackened hue
Carved deep by hands no man e’er knew
Before the Slavs, before the Magyar’s tread
A race debauched, both damned and dread
Did rule these lands with rites obscene
In homage to their shadowed queen
They danced beneath the gibbous moon
To pipe and drum, their foulest tune
Their bodies writhed, unbound by grace
A beast-like, dark, forgotten race
Upon this stone their rites did burn
Where life and flesh to...

Time is
Time is with you
Time is behind you
Don’t waste your time looking
Time is a second you lost
Time will find you
Time is everlasting and ever present
My time with you will live in me
You have time I have me
My time says stay with you
Hear a clock ticking
It’s my suspicion of suspension
We believe time is everlasting
It is for real but when we can’t breathe
Time is looking and ticking
I want time to remember me
Until time...
Time is behind you
Don’t waste your time looking
Time is a second you lost
Time will find you
Time is everlasting and ever present
My time with you will live in me
You have time I have me
My time says stay with you
Hear a clock ticking
It’s my suspicion of suspension
We believe time is everlasting
It is for real but when we can’t breathe
Time is looking and ticking
I want time to remember me

Sleep well
I find roadkill strangely beautiful.
It feels almost rude,
like something I should keep secret.
How could I find something so
aggressive and brutal,
so calming?
Maybe it's something in their eyes.
A soul,
finally at rest.
And I hope they died fast.
And I hope they lived well.
And I envy them for finally being able to sleep.
A blameless death.
Accidental.
Peace at last.

Rites of Ascension
In hidden vaults, where shadows seep
They sing the rites of crimson creed
The ancient tongues in murmurs creep
And call to bones that never bleed
Through sacred dark, where secrets lie
In consecrated rot and dust
They chant beneath a starless sky
To raise the flesh dissolved by rust
With sigils drawn in ashen trace
And holy oil upon the stone
They conjure forth a lost embrace
Of spirits bound by oath and bone
Anointed blood in chaliced hands
They lift to Him who waits unseen
To rouse the buried from...
They sing the rites of crimson creed
The ancient tongues in murmurs creep
And call to bones that never bleed
Through sacred dark, where secrets lie
In consecrated rot and dust
They chant beneath a starless sky
To raise the flesh dissolved by rust
With sigils drawn in ashen trace
And holy oil upon the stone
They conjure forth a lost embrace
Of spirits bound by oath and bone
Anointed blood in chaliced hands

To a stranger who has died
To a stranger who has died
Money is nontransferable –
That the Egyptians tried –
The kings – they’re unconsolable –
But I know of things that follow:
A reputation is transferable –
Fame – too – worth much in gold
As well as a pretty caricature –
Others will take their talents
And I – by a memory that’s perfect –
Will take – cheating osmosis –
My poems with me into death.

Decomposure
You are a joke.
Choke on the words
vomiting out of your mouth.
I’m out of time.
Crimes that you have
committed must be answered.
Cancerous love
shoved through my veins,
I have to relaliate.
[staggering]
[falling]
[the dagger's in]
[calling]
Fate…fate,
is this my fate?
Hate… hate
why do you hate?
.......
Blacking out before death,
how inevitable.
Left here with labored breaths
to witness these moments.
His unrestricted depth
allows him victory. ...

Still-steel well
One a day in the past I was a well of fresh water
Once a days in the past I was vastness of life flowing gentle sweet strife
My walls ran deep tapping to the bottoms of the earth touching the living WATERS
The WATERS that came from me gave forth life to those who drank and they could live FOREVER
FOREVER did i yearn to birth and nourish life that was my ENDEAVOR
My walls clean to the bottom holding together what made you be,
I quenched the thirst of many yet when they drank they did not put thought or care to my walls
When I killed their thirsts they...

Venomous Kiss Of His Fists
In lieu of a kiss, he used his fist
Felt that she dissed and he got pissed
Used his palms in lieu of a charm
Strangled, she couldn't raise her arms
Recited Psalms then said goodbye
Reached the finale of blackened eyes
She chose the wrong guy for a mate
Hindsight's 20/20; a twisted fate
Felt that she dissed and he got pissed
Used his palms in lieu of a charm
Strangled, she couldn't raise her arms
Recited Psalms then said goodbye
Reached the finale of blackened eyes
She chose the wrong guy for a mate
Hindsight's 20/20; a twisted fate

The Late Richard Franklin
It was a day that classic Doctor Who fans would certainly hate.
We said goodbye to the man who starred as Captain Mike Yates.
His death was even more sad because he died on Christmas Day.
Millions of his fans have missed him ever since he passed away.
People loved his performances and Richard Franklin was his name.
Now that he's deceased, fans of Doctor Who will never be the same.
He starred in one episode of "Harry" and nine episodes of "Crossroads".
When he starred in "Emmerdale Farm", he starred in over thirty episodes. ...
