the lizard of misery
The Lizard of Misery
He had traveled long distances before going back
to when child
Stopped at what had been his parent's house
someone else lived in their flat perhaps, a child sleeps
in his bed and dream his dreams.
He was overwhelmed by a sudden sense of loss
but his childhood
had been tough, a sleeping bag as a bed
He had, as an adult, constructed his own childhood
one he came to believe and told other people over
and over again
The lizard, on his back, was set free to glue itself
in someone else's misery

Summary:
Terra makes up for the past and thanks Raven.
Work Text:
"Raven, I want to confess. Beast Boy, he took me here while y'all were gone; it was awkward. And if Beast Boy is really yours, you can have-"
Raven looks at Terra at the front entrance of Titans Tower. She's the only one awake among Robin, Starfire, and Cyborg. And she hugs her deeply.
"Raven, I-"
"Don't. It's okay. I know. Your past was similar to my own. Your darkness reflected my own, and I forgive you."

a lost friend
a lost friend
I refuse to cry over lost friends
I`m drunk too
It feels good to up the anchor of sobriety
Let alcohol give winds to my sails.
I`m a clipper buying tea in China
not useless toys
Sleek the line, the women admired me
let the clipper sail
I don`t care
I will stay here and
make love to you.
I`m sorry I left you, my Liverpool girl
I went to Brazil to harvest coffee beans
Guatemala I got there by chance
the beach in the moonlight
I have not forgotten my promises
one day more, just one day more ...

Scenes of love
I love you, but you love the mirror
thinks your nose is perfect
green eyes and rosy lips
your fragrance has a narcissistic
allure, as you take the last look
in the hallway mirror before
leaving for the ball
Ah, the way you walk, pavements
adore you, rain shies away to
save your hair from bother
When you cross the road, car horns
blast by themselves, white cars
turn pink
The sun doesn't burn your skin
makes it golden in the afternoon
and glows in the night
Until one day, the mirror...

melancolie
Melancolie
The August heat is hotter than other summer months
more lethal going in for the kill,
The olive trees gasp, bark crackles and leaves hang
lifeless, but the sun keeps on shining
I think of Norway. to be back to my hometown run
down to the park and remember the joy when
Stavanger became a modern town Cafe Alexander
where one could have a pint of beer without eating
a sandwich that has been the norm
The idea was to stop people from drinking alcohol
that was, in our narrow-minded society, a great sin
there were...

Lon Chaney Jr.
sweet torment,
don't splash your wine on me
these pockets are empty.
perched on a barstool
head held in calloused hands
as the lamplight shines
upon a weathered face,etched
with years
vespers murmur
as the conductor wields a swizzle stick
arid martinis know the truth.
limelight, it casts shadows
from Hollywood and Vine
I stutter, speaking
to a Woodward Avenue girl
man becomes the monster,
radio static whispers,
sweet voices torment
a green rosetta ripped...

Scandinavians
Scandinavia
Finland is the whitest country in the world
I read and according to the article in
the Sunday paper, happy in their whiteness
People in Scandinavia tend to be pale-faced
Sweden too, was white and still is, but lately
people from Muslim countries have muscled
in and disturbed the cohesion, which leaves
many a Swede worried about the future and
Greta Thunberg, will she convert and use
a face veil? I think not, she fills out her jeans
looks like a woman, although of small stature
Norway, another white country,...

The Devil's Memorial
Cloaked mysterious
Plundering fascination
Fallen upon space
Gravity of self
Matters concentrating
Fabrication weighs
Pulling such fathom
Into a blackhole
Astrological ascension
From night stars
Such vast expanse
Thieving inquisition
Chambers inside
Blinding misanthropy
As guises beguile
Beleaguered chance
Esoteric enigma
Darkness spell amaze
Conundrum of corridor
Spiral mind cusp
Control noted ...

Charles Bukowski
Charles Bukowski
Was originally an introvert
but realized that it was a condition
that hindered him
He became an aggressive extrovert
to be able to write
not to forget to be considered
a hell riser
in his wring we see he wanted
to introspective and often disappeared
for days to be alone with his
inner self, his alter ego if you like
His obvious hell riser drinking problem
was a testament of this torment
He reached his goal to be taken serious
as an author
in the end his burden killed him, long ...

Depression
Her body wrapped in darkness,
trying to migrate to the light.
Such a frail little body,
still trying to fight.
Shattered into pieces,
trying to tether what's left.
Bounded by the ropes of insanity,
screaming, "life was never fair!"
Whispering echos
passed through the trees
Located in the forest of despair
begging the spirits for leniency
As they all
just vacantly stare
trying to migrate to the light.
Such a frail little body,
still trying to fight.
Shattered into pieces,
trying to tether what's left.
Bounded by the ropes of insanity,
screaming, "life was never fair!"
Whispering echos
passed through the trees
Located in the forest of despair
begging the spirits for leniency
As they all
just vacantly stare

my aunt
My Aunt
A Sunday of yore is still visible
floats around my mind at the edges of memories
send signals, how much I loved her, but she
had taken the train to visit her father
A Sunday that had no worries about tomorrow
other than if Inter café closed early, I would
arrive too late
I walked in familiar streets thinking, happy thought
Suddenly, I was outside my aunt's house
she was of the festive sort, a great talker, not for her t
o spend a Sunday reading books; Sunday was
also, the day she baked coco macrons
What a great day,...

Senseless Love
You say love lost its feel.
You say that it's not real.
At the end, you shall kneel.
Cause it's your heart I intend to steal.
It's an ocean of senseless love.
I've had enough of senseless love.
I've built up some hate for you.
Hello, can you hear me?
I've got enough to do.
So don't you try to steer me wrong.
Deceiver, reaper, I feed off your weakness.
All you are will feed this.
Nothing in the trees.
It's all falling to pieces.
Will you die by my hand?
Does anyone understand me?
