Ghost
I thought I would have to hide my scars,
But they shine in broad daylight, and still, nobody sees them.
It's as if I am a ghost.
I stand in front of a people,
My shattered frame's fragments piercing those who stand closely,
Yet they still say I am not broken.
I starve,
But they don't see my ribcage.
I kill,
But they don't see the blood.
I sob,
But they don't see the bloodshot eyes.
I lie,
And they believe me too well.
I tell you,
I am a ghost,
For a thousand hands have been pushed through me,
Yet no one can...
But they shine in broad daylight, and still, nobody sees them.
It's as if I am a ghost.
I stand in front of a people,
My shattered frame's fragments piercing those who stand closely,
Yet they still say I am not broken.
I starve,
But they don't see my ribcage.
I kill,
But they don't see the blood.
I sob,
But they don't see the bloodshot eyes.
I lie,
And they believe me too well.

homeless
the night's
cold is
apparently
unaware
of what
it is
doing
to me,
it is
creeping
onto
my skin,
finding
its way
to
my bones,
and by
morning,
i may be
as cold
as the
night was,
unless the
sun can
save me.

World of Chestnuts
Ceaseless hypocrisy, assuming
wings beneath your shadow
In a world of chestnuts
haunting shattered dreams
Where whispers lie
like a ghost
That won't let go
in a crooked house
wings beneath your shadow
In a world of chestnuts
haunting shattered dreams
Where whispers lie
like a ghost
That won't let go
in a crooked house

Everythings Fine
There are bigger things to worry about than politics or the death of democracy.
Worry about the death of kindness.
Worry about the death of compassion.
Worry about the death of decency.
Worry about the death of yourself.
Or
Don't worry at all.
Look up to the sky
Be amazed and cry.
Isn't that all we've ever wanted
To be amazed.
Worry about the death of kindness.
Worry about the death of compassion.
Worry about the death of decency.
Worry about the death of yourself.
Or
Don't worry at all.
Look up to the sky
Be amazed and cry.
Isn't that all we've ever wanted
To be amazed.

Snap.
When we take photos,
we take some colour from reality.
Soon,after all the billions of photos we've taken,
bit by bit,pixel by pixel,
reality,the canvas of life will be utterly blank and desolate.
All colour will be stored in the cloud,
And we will weep and cry aloud,
for looking at life through a lens.
we take some colour from reality.

At Half Mast
Restless spirits when John Lennon was struck down
can you imagine all the people who cried
when Mahatma Gandhi died with sightless eyes
can you imagine all the people who fast
and stop singing when the caisson passed
flying the eagle at half mast
can you imagine all the people who cried
when Mahatma Gandhi died with sightless eyes
can you imagine all the people who fast
and stop singing when the caisson passed
flying the eagle at half mast

The Day Of Reckoning (COTS-Part II)
I suppose in my culture we do not give credence to anyone that is she dick
An Adam Apple still displayed in black and white, a false wig wearing chick
I suppose a Monkey to swing from your groin do exist
I guess it must get hard as a banana and stiff as a brick
You on here every hour on the hour trying to bend a nigga will over and for what, where’s the clit
When you do not have a hairy jungle in your pants
I come in peace, move silence in sound, the universal is my spiritual romance, and I try in humbleness, to always grant

Scuttlebutt - with Grace
Hallelujah, twilight cold darkness
demons of my soul haunting me
conjuring Hell's musicians
with misogynist scuttlebutt
taunting with scythes in moonlight
touched by the blood of enemies
cruising down the highway
on the fenders of Gethsemani
Praise be, haunters all
begin the rites and rituals
to gather shreds of souls
written within wishes so foul
songs discordant in gangrenous light
orchestra on a surreal stage within
scratches of gruesome graffiti
in a mind on the brink of insanity
demons of my soul haunting me
conjuring Hell's musicians
with misogynist scuttlebutt
taunting with scythes in moonlight
touched by the blood of enemies
cruising down the highway
on the fenders of Gethsemani
Praise be, haunters all
begin the rites and rituals
to gather shreds of souls
written within wishes so foul
songs discordant in gangrenous light
orchestra on a surreal stage within
scratches of gruesome graffiti
in a mind on the brink of insanity

They Are Here
Unflinching willingness to sell their soul to crows
and everyday intimacies seem a little strange
with a sociopathic disposition to wear lipstick
kneedeep in porn movies and cemeteries
playing Jeopardy as they spit-shine the corpse
listening to Bubba recite Homer Simpson

Mankind Effect
To stand in the way.
Psychotic selfishness leads them astray.
Fair weather friends armed to betray.
Yet I am a Dragon no man can slay.
While mankind chases worthless things and their lives waste away.
I suffer from the mankind effect.
The deception and iniquity of even the ellect.
They always trample on my dreams.
In favor of their corrupt money making schemes.
More faithful to hollow machines.
Always ascerting what they know.
Their one and only truth I dont follow.
With threats of Hellfire from below.

Home Tooled
Without sounding...How should I put this? I think you are addicted to
Cheetos. It became noticeable when I saw you and your grandpa blowing
orange dust up your noses. You said that you were having a snack break
while shining your Harley. Why didn't you put a shine on your mom's
Kawasaki?
There is something in the orange coloring. It goes along with the urge to
castrate yourself. Don't you think it peculiar that you named fido, Barry
Manilow. Who told you that Cheetos were anatomically correct? The same
can be said for...

The Pagan Hook
Envying the silence of trees
rustling leaves of Autumn
with whispers, I seek
then comes the fading light
with the pagan hook
raining down souls in dark dreams
echoing the winds of tribulation
of unforgiven sinners mirroring
stains of shadows appearing
rustling leaves of Autumn
with the pagan hook
rustling leaves of Autumn
with whispers, I seek
then comes the fading light
with the pagan hook
raining down souls in dark dreams
echoing the winds of tribulation
of unforgiven sinners mirroring
stains of shadows appearing
rustling leaves of Autumn
