A Beautiful Lie
It must have been a thrill
the smell of a fresh kill,
but you missed my heart
You can take the knife out now
the smell of a fresh kill,
but you missed my heart
You can take the knife out now

Lonely Graves
..so the winter blows across lonely graves
extinguishing dreams in the moonless cold
where angels tread before the world went dark
now consumed by hate and jealousy
discarding bones that have no shadows...
by slaying the lonely hearts
extinguishing dreams in the moonless cold
where angels tread before the world went dark
now consumed by hate and jealousy
discarding bones that have no shadows...
by slaying the lonely hearts

The irony of today's Hope.
Discard the distractions.
Forget all the misinformation.
Look past the programming.
Beyond the worship of self.
See hope for what it is.
A promise... sometimes a lie.
Always tomorrow.
In the future.
Not in the present.
Used equally with fear.
To steer the masses.
To conceal the truth.
Dividing.
Conquering.
A brain washing so easily believed. ....
What do you believe?
Is it just what you’re told?
Don’t you want independent thought?
Hope is sold pretty cheap these days.
It belies the true...

Ten minutes with my ego
I told you it was okay.
Next time….
And anyway,
My head hurts
And I was nervous.
But my ego,
Fragile and uncouth,
Furiously marinated those
Lies for you
Furiously reconciled
The troubling rejection…..
To salvage its authority
Over the truth.
The ego never disappoints.
Honestly, though,
my head did hurt…..
It is okay.
We are just a routine hookup.
And I don’t matter
And neither do you.
It's just my cleverly unkind ego never agrees
To accommodate dismissal.

.. blurtettes
because,
what you speak as a notion
you speak on things
some can not unhear,
you know nothing about,
so,
before your mouth goes in motion,
when you open your mouth
put your mind in gear.
you have removed all doubt
what you speak as a notion
you speak on things
some can not unhear,
you know nothing about,
so,
before your mouth goes in motion,
when you open your mouth
put your mind in gear.
you have removed all doubt

Love Destroyer
I asked Medusa to cast a spell
Please close your legs and release me from hell
Look into my eyes and break these chains
I really can't take your emotional strain
Acid for blood coursing through corroded veins
Supplying everything for a corroded brain
With my heart now being factored in
Where does our problem begin
You came into this shit with undisclosed plans
Fucking with my head and then making demands
You weren't looking for love, but any man
After getting what you wanted burying him in the sand
I didn't claim...
Please close your legs and release me from hell
Look into my eyes and break these chains
I really can't take your emotional strain
Acid for blood coursing through corroded veins
Supplying everything for a corroded brain
With my heart now being factored in
Where does our problem begin
You came into this shit with undisclosed plans
Fucking with my head and then making demands
You weren't looking for love, but any man

Unity and potential
Cold hard truth
unfeeling
heart of stone
logic sans compassion
angry denials
immaturity
childish tantrums
feelings devoid of reason
.
a kaleidoscope
of multi-colored sensitivity
choosing the lens
creating the optics
developing a narrative
project Mockingbird
.
a magnifying glass
of illuminating clarity
actions of the heart
viewed by results
not by intent
tempering logic
tempered emotions
.
a closed mind
or shuttered soul
as with a parachute
only work when open...

The start of it all
When I first saw you I knew instantly I wanted your attention.
It didn’t matter what it took to get it, even at the expense of my own ridicule.
Your smile & the way you flaunted your assets in front of me, swept me off my feet.
Too blind to see the strings that made me a puppet I was your soldier & I made sure the world knew it.
I ran through so many brick walls I became one. You noticed a change in my demeanor.
You gave up trying to talk to a brick wall. I turned into how you made me feel.
The Golden...

Ready for battle baby
I keep my distance for it is my shield
The true me can never openly be revealed
As I know the dangers that come consealed
With opening up to much of my battleplan before I go afield
Traitors and sadists roam freely unaware of what they are
Sitting and watching how the war unfolds from afar
With Judging eyes and cowardly words they become a sewage reservoir
As sitting on the sidelines means you have no side-no scars
I draw up my plan of action before any engagement is provoked
Knowing the enemy can be anyone at any time - The traitor is...
The true me can never openly be revealed

Stargazing on the shores of
Normandy
doing a pirouette in a
Paris café
and getting shot to death on
the Southside of Los
Angeles
a conspiracy theory is just the
truth a year from now
UFOs to distract from dementia
clueless hyenas
fat fucks on Saturday
another week off from the
casino
every movie I watched this
week had rape scenes
Jesus, is that really my
algorithm?
yeah, tell me I’m not giving
the audience what they ...

Empty Shell
You're like a playboy snapshot on a hallmark card
Speaking in generic rhythms
And the forced symmetry of a second-rate rhyme scheme
Sell your body because you've got nothing to say
Till looks endorse a voice and listeners patronize
Bait the heart on account of private parts
Self exploit and billboard the skin deep till sexy can write
Like your words aren't enough to carry their own weight
Visual aids for erotic titles to slogan a profile picture
Campaigning lust
How much sex does it take to fake significance?
...
