My demons
I wish my inner demon
didn't scream so loud
and I could kiss the venom
out of this ice cold heart.
I wish the days were over
that I need to cause the pain
and dealing so much trouble
crashing this old train.
So please just run away,
hide your darkness and fear
because my devils are awake
and your desire's end is near.
I wish that my soul wasn't
as drenched in pain as is
and if I could I wouldn't
make it end like this.
didn't scream so loud
and I could kiss the venom
out of this ice cold heart.
I wish the days were over
that I need to cause the pain
and dealing so much trouble
crashing this old train.
So please just run away,
hide your darkness and fear
because my devils are awake
and your desire's end is near.
I wish that my soul wasn't
as drenched in pain as is
and if I could I wouldn't
make it end like this.

Tenement Of My Psyche
chlorine smelling hallways
damp, cold, skin
water-logged head
claustrophobic carpet patterns
yellowing ceiling tiles
wallpaper peeling, revealing
the cracks behind
and the cobwebs
rotting roof wood
spitting and letting
the sunlight
slither back in
to the attic
damp, cold, skin
water-logged head
claustrophobic carpet patterns
yellowing ceiling tiles
wallpaper peeling, revealing
the cracks behind
and the cobwebs
rotting roof wood
spitting and letting
the sunlight
slither back in
to the attic

someday lonely
how can i shine
without your smile,
that lonely voice
reaching out
touching me,
stirring hidden emotions
while thinking of you,
these crushing
emotional breaths
break my silence,
heavier with each
newest empty day.
without your smile,
that lonely voice
reaching out
touching me,
stirring hidden emotions
while thinking of you,
these crushing
emotional breaths
break my silence,
heavier with each
newest empty day.

How much bullshit can one actually write about people of such little relevance other than Harry and Meghan?
By Stanley Collymore
Disgustingly obscene as it clearly
naturally so, very transparently
is to each discernibly evidently
so sane intelligent individual with a
functioning brain inside their head
and who clearly does competently
know how to effectively employ it,
the Daily Mail rather intentionally
and most discernibly fortuitously
and financially using people who
are evidently idiots, but crucially
actually don't know this and too
would obviously be most deeply
offended if this patently serious ...

Starvation
After the coronavirus, if it ends (have my doubt)
the next problem will be worldwide hunger.
Wine estates were eradicated for planting potatoes
rice and carrots.
Dogs, cats and pigeons will disappear, eaten by
the starving people.
Roasted mice were a delicatessen in Roma time
it can be an appetizer again.
Fried insects with onion on Sunday.
There will be no obese people in the USA
the president will rule forever as a democracy
is set aside when time is hard.
Sir Richard will sit on his island, starving
no...

You Won't Be Long.
You can replace,
Things,
Things,
Things,
Some things.
But you can't replace,
People,
People,
People.
His prescense,on hold,
In terms of the memories
Of him,staying afloat.
Some say,they knew,
When his time had come.
But its only been afew hours,
Since his shadow, went back home.
Go safely,
2 where you originate from.
You will be remembered,
No matter how long.

Worlds Apart
When did you stop seeing me as a person
a living, breathing human being with feelings and a heart
A woman who has fought her way, tooth and nail, to overcome her traumatic past
because the way you treat me now compared to then
well the differences are worlds apart
when did you stop kissing my forehead
when did the desire to gently protect my heart fade away
When did this palpable change in tolerance for my presence start to manifest
I panic and reach for you, but the harder I try the more you pull away
My skin is burning with the knowing of...

Amanda Platell: not worth being incarcerated for, but on retrospective consideration clearly worth eliminating!
By Stanley Collymore
This poisonously very verminous
distinctly white trash specimen
of supposed Homo sapiens is
as she's always forever at it, vilely
spouting her constant deceitfully
disingenuous and too spuriously
egregiously racist nonsense with
the rabid encouragement of the
Nazi Daily Mail, then ludicrously
yet, fittingly so, jointly passing it
off as objective, and discernibly
enlighteningly, beneficial news,
when very categorically, it isn't.
Now virtue signalling,...

Drowning
I'm gonna lay here
In the bed of my truck
And try to count the stars
And
All the promises
That were ever made
It's complicated
Because promises turn into
All the I've-changed pleadings
On your knees feelings
And the tempo of the music
Speeds up into
All the never-agains and the not-anymores
That fall from big brown eyes
And the mouth that frowns and cries
I can't do this anymore
Next comes the hot rush
The heat in my cheeks
When I remember
All the cant-be-undones alongside the...

What Surviving is Like
Tap tap
Pull
Words made taught
Stretching hard
Like guitar strings
Like neck tendons
When you strain to see
Just what’s out of reach
You tighten just a little
Feel the burn of stretch
The scent of wretch
Unfortunate victim
In your catch
Tug tug
Pull
Peel off a layer
Rubbing between fingers
Like a two day old band aid
Like a three day old sunburn
When it’s peeling extra deep
And you seek that relief
You tweak just a little
Find pleasure in the pain
The scent of blood ...
