sincere
loneliness emits a certain keen
if you're listening you will hear it
an emptiness that gnaws at the soul
indifferent to my own pain
it sometimes rises with pangs of ache
and I am taken aback
doubled over with pain
my heart's sorrow clearly seen
hidden deep within, I swallow it down
regretful emotion, I don't want you to see me this way
it hurts my pride to know you get to me
salvation in a hugs sometimes that's all it takes
a smile, to keep those uneasy feelings at bay
tender emotion, when I can express...

The Legend Of Shadow Walker (the Appalachian killer)
Blood Mountain Georgia:
Blood stains found on the trail
Leading to a path of her entrails
Her head smashed on the boulders
A lifeless body with seperated shoulders
Lake Jocassee South Carolina:
Body drown in a mountainous lake
It was no accident, it was no mistake
No remnants found of this body dead
Except a decapitated floating head
Siler Bald North Carolina:
Ashes and bones found in a campfire
A missing couple almost retired
Smell of burnt flesh fills the smokey air
Detectives looking for leads...

Being (Of Flesh)
Flesh is the enemy that keeps me tied to the rotting earth
Flesh is the captor that sings me sweet promises of joy and freedom
I try to do away with flesh
But it clings to my skin and bones desperately
The foul stench of life is overbearing and bright
Red hot breath croaks its way out of lungs
Leaving a trail of blood everywhere I go as my flesh scrapes on the street
No matter how long I walk I may never reach bone
A person
Made of flesh and love
I am not
I am a human among people ...
Flesh is the captor that sings me sweet promises of joy and freedom
I try to do away with flesh
But it clings to my skin and bones desperately
The foul stench of life is overbearing and bright
Red hot breath croaks its way out of lungs
Leaving a trail of blood everywhere I go as my flesh scrapes on the street
No matter how long I walk I may never reach bone
A person
Made of flesh and love
I am not
I am a human among people ...

And me too, publicly and clearly conveniently shouts the odious, vulturine egoist Nadine Dorries!
By Stanley Collymore
Quite bluntly I don't believe a solitary
word that this plainly malevolently
egregious, actually egotistically
inured, discernibly rabid attention seeker and
toxically, though pathetically so, significantly,
basically vaingloriously, virtue-signalling and
post-menopausal hag, is lyingly stating! This
sprog, obviously born on the 21st May 1957,
allegedly sexually assaulted by a vicar when
she was aged nine and thus mathematically
a situation that would have very purportedly
occurred in 1966, but...

The Struggle Within
Staring at the reflective mirror
My life is at an impasse
Decisions have never been clearer
My fists pounding on the glass
In pieces the mirror shatters
Broken like my thoughts unknown
Wondering if anything matters
Travelling in this world alone
Life is no longer worth living
I'm tired of the constant pain
My sins can never be forgiven
Lifes vicious cycle is insane
Contemplating the unimaginable
I grab a broken glass shard
Making deaths experience tangible
By escaping my memories...
My life is at an impasse
Decisions have never been clearer
My fists pounding on the glass
In pieces the mirror shatters
Broken like my thoughts unknown
Wondering if anything matters
Travelling in this world alone
Life is no longer worth living
I'm tired of the constant pain
My sins can never be forgiven
Lifes vicious cycle is insane
Contemplating the unimaginable
I grab a broken glass shard
Making deaths experience tangible
By escaping my memories...

Blood Trail
Training my obsession
Creating my mind
My addictive profession
Is not what you'd find
Determined mentality fills
My taste so pure
As this sickness kills
There is no cure
Trying to figure life out
Clues I've reasoned
I know without a doubt
Inner dimensions seasoned
Bodies twisted and distorted
Appear the way only I see
Thoughts twisted and contorted
Blurred visions of my reality
Watch my mystery unfold
This mystery from within
Voices have been told
Disturbing where I've been ...

Heaven dissolved
Where has it all gone
Eternal nights of living our dreams
Wrapped in each others fantasy
The nights ended
Ushering in the cold reality
Of an impossible world
Now we live in harsh quiet
Searching for blame
To hurl at each other
For the dissolving of our heaven
Eternal nights of living our dreams
Wrapped in each others fantasy
The nights ended
Ushering in the cold reality
Of an impossible world
Now we live in harsh quiet
Searching for blame
To hurl at each other
For the dissolving of our heaven

Elpis
It was when outside
It was a torrid evening
But inside you had the chill,
And not even the flames of hell
Would have been enough
To warm your soul.
When sitting
By the sea
Drinking vodka
Surrounded by a crowd
And feeling tremendously alone,
You no longer looked at the horizon,
But at the bottom of the glass,
And seeing your reflection
You wondered since when
You had that lost gaze.
It was there, at the bottom of that glass,
That Elpis gave you
The spark in the darkness,

Soul of Sorrow
Hear my spirit cry out.
In the oceans of memory my soul swims.
I taste the remembrance of life,
Only to drown in the tears of regret.
Oh what pity and despair I share with shadows of forgotten entities of desolation.
For I’m doomed to an eternity of darkness and sadness
and loneliness, and the overwhelming desire to live again.
In the oceans of memory my soul swims.
I taste the remembrance of life,
Only to drown in the tears of regret.
Oh what pity and despair I share with shadows of forgotten entities of desolation.
For I’m doomed to an eternity of darkness and sadness
and loneliness, and the overwhelming desire to live again.

When a child, they said there was no God

Chasing _____
On the road home, a familiar, yet
majestic scene—
made same as any
other in the
absence of daylight.
This unfulfilled longing
still
lingers as a pair of scuffed black dress shoes
pass under a humming neon sign that
watches over the
pothole-riddled
parking lot of Casa Mexico.
He’s seated alone
tonight,
and with no roof
of
words to shelter him from the
Rain, he stares blankly at a Spanish poster until the arrival of his food.
He tips well— they treat him well in
like fashion.
