Tears from stone
I don't believe
I ever held any power
to hurt you.
That never stopped me trying.
Searching for your weaker seams,
telling you secrets that prove I don't care,
moving on and doing all I've done.
Yes, I meant to make you cry.
Parched
greedy
thirsty for those tears.
I'll never have to regret
causing your nightfall;
since you are dry and
immovable as stone,
it's simply
impossible.
I ever held any power

That never stopped me trying.
Searching for your weaker seams,
telling you secrets that prove I don't care,
moving on and doing all I've done.
Yes, I meant to make you cry.
Parched
greedy
thirsty for those tears.
I'll never have to regret
causing your nightfall;
since you are dry and
immovable as stone,
it's simply
impossible.

Decisions
How and why -
People refrain from the pain
of deep
Self disclosure,
Either,
Out of incapacity,
or,
fear
of
Depth
Without closure:
The superficiality of the mundane -
the surface lovers
At
surface levels,
as,
Preservation
Prevention
Of over extension -
or exertion
of perception,
In self exploration
of
Another self…
Cellestial collisions

liar
twisted truths...
lies speak in the craters of guilt
your words betray you
agonizing mutiny...cuts
inside your worry die a little
it stings but nothing to do but wait
caught in omission's glare you stew
filthy late night epiphany doesn't mean a thing
a dirty soul talks loudest
your sin stutters
cry in the dark of night
to an uncaring void
nothing better than honesty
a clear conscious
evil desires your silent death
solemnly your thoughts turn ugly
eating away your heart
in...
lies speak in the craters of guilt
your words betray you
agonizing mutiny...cuts
inside your worry die a little

caught in omission's glare you stew
filthy late night epiphany doesn't mean a thing

your sin stutters
cry in the dark of night
to an uncaring void
nothing better than honesty
a clear conscious

solemnly your thoughts turn ugly
eating away your heart

fact is (and always will be ..)
don’t do new musicians or authors
or films much
as I read the reviews
I prefer the old stuff like
the beatles trad jazz louis mcniece
old black and white
cinematography anything that doesn’t confuse
truth with lies

it's all relative
when all laws have been
abolished
one could be arrested and
punished for anything
there will no difference
between the innocent
and the guilty
and the gallows will
sing

black
an unwritten poem
which was to be written in the coolness of the moon
which was about to scream with a devoted love and infinite pain.
in which a black rainbow was going to be visible on the bookmarked background
in which someone was going to sit on a bench in autumn and smile brightly
in which the royal silence rising from the east was to be whispers in one's ears
in which one had to kiss someone's lips
in which someone wanted to eat someone's tender flesh
someone was going to understand the art of someone's unexplained love ...

Pacman; Ghosts of the past
Haven't the ghosts driven you crazy yet?
Their attitude is not encouraging
Life after life, is it the same as before?
So what is this zeal for? ...
Fighting ghosts, even after death,
Break on a visit, chase and break bones with
ethereal jaws, worn out mouths
On a completely virtual firmament
They feed on lives, and only live on that
You get stronger, but only for a while
You change roles, but again a blow to your crown
And even the end of the game is not the end,
the Credits lie
Always wandering...

And even the end of the game is not the end,
