Please Disappear
Wake up, I want your lies
Don't die, it won't be nice
Is that what I've been waiting for?
Now I saw your face
You awoke!
You didn't die, it isn't so wonderful after all
Is that what I've been waiting for?
No.
Please disappear forever
Don't die, it won't be nice
Is that what I've been waiting for?
Now I saw your face
You awoke!
You didn't die, it isn't so wonderful after all
Is that what I've been waiting for?
No.
Please disappear forever

A Selfish Heart
Stars observe all the chaos below
Watching human’s hurt one another
Hatred takes root and starts to grow
While pitting sister against brother
Never learning from past mistakes
Gravitating towards great despair
Rushing headlong without brakes
A selfish heart without fruit to bear

Guilt
The hour struck delirous
pain spoke of grief
and I ache in its midnight torrent
Harboring the guilt of the day
I labored under the impression I would be free
honesty was silent
and truth glare
It was my hurt to bear
weeping in my need
I bleed
pain spoke of grief
and I ache in its midnight torrent
Harboring the guilt of the day
I labored under the impression I would be free
honesty was silent
and truth glare
It was my hurt to bear
weeping in my need
I bleed

To ignore the signs
Let's take a moment to analyze what I'm saying to you all, that are involved in this conversation, with the realization of understanding. FOR how many times have your own thoughts, shown you that, what you don't see is that, what you need to see, but yet we refuse to not acknowledge it 🤔 For sure the same thing holds true, in our own personal relationships, when things start to fall out of place that you, start to notice the deepness of the shifting of common sense. 🤫 But yet we still ignore the current changes in high sights 😕 of what our own brain 🧠 is trying...

Four minutes out and all was well
Four minutes before I
ran out the door
chasing other dick
I was on your lap
listening to the way
my full name
rolled off your
southern lips
Three minutes before
I ran out the door
I said I wondered
what your neck
tasted like
and you said
"your pussy"
you called me a
twin flame
as we wrapped
around each other
like skin grafts
and later ....
I pulled
my torn stockings
from the floor
next to your bed
and...
ran out the door
chasing other dick
I was on your lap
listening to the way
my full name
rolled off your
southern lips
Three minutes before
I ran out the door
I said I wondered

DAWN IS RISING
Dawn is rising,
emphasising
night is over
for the lover
of the darkness,
when the starkness
of the body
in nudity
has to once more
take the cover
of the day clothes
free spirit loathes.

Mother Natures Last Walk
Walking in the soft white
With no direction
All I know is my heart is cold
The air freezes with every exhale
Creating intriguing flakes that drift
What have you done?
Some mistakes cannot be repaired
I gave you a home
Nurtured you
Now
I will walk the path to my end
What can a mother do to show her love?
I gave you me
Once the last bloom on the tree of life blooms
Remember how I once was.
Remember the soft summer nights.
When the rose and the orchids perfumed the air
Remember the sweet fruits...
With no direction
All I know is my heart is cold
The air freezes with every exhale
Creating intriguing flakes that drift
What have you done?
Some mistakes cannot be repaired
I gave you a home
Nurtured you
Now
I will walk the path to my end
What can a mother do to show her love?
I gave you me
Once the last bloom on the tree of life blooms
Remember how I once was.
Remember the soft summer nights.
When the rose and the orchids perfumed the air
Remember the sweet fruits...

Public Apology to Crimsin
I sliced and diced you this morning
It was without cause and truly rude
You and I have had our differences
Basically we're both street fighters
We wear aftershave and perfume
Hoping to cover for our sins
What I did however was criminal
A rubbernecking at a car wreck
Hoping to get some gore
This is a public apology
With sincerity and I hope grace
You said I was a better man than what I portrayed
I hope one day to be that man
I still have a ways to go
My apologies Brenda

Corporate Shenanigans
It’s an upsetting thing looking back it now
I thought I was just doing my job
But those of us who worked in subprime lending
We were part of that predatory mob
I had access to so many files
But I was just a paper pusher in those days
Get it from one reviewer and then out to another
I never really questioned every bonus or raise
It was a like a freight train on speed
Eventually the steam for the company ran out
And there I was, jobless for a while
Unsure of how all of that came about
Later on as the entire world went...

Devolution
Idiots have merged with neo-nazis
to make this world an uglier place
spawning a planet of...idiotzis
with overpriced egg on each beef-wit face;
faces that turn their noses up at books
since the time that they save with every ban
they can spend kissing the ass of the crooks
who kiss the ass of the crook with the tan,
all to enable a future of hate,
where forward pay is all a game of blame
which...NEVER...has been a romantic trait
but only a counterproductive aim
that leads to the puniest short term gain,
of...

See You In the Next Life
There was a time when I was
insouciant
the amount of fucks I gave
were counted in negative numbers
and I could internally quote my favourite comedian
“So what if you’re offended, nothing happens,
it’s not like you’re going to say
damn I was offended, I was hurt
and then I woke up with cancer”
and I’m sure there’s onlookers with a sense of
Schadenfraude at my inability
to swagger around with the big dick energy I took
for granted, thinking that because I could write
in a way that hits
I was bulletproof
because...

Sidewalks
Look, don't turn your head when you pass me,
unless you want me to break your neck
so you can always walk
with your chin up and your nose to the side...
Look, don't pretend you don't know me,
that you never touched my hand
and that we were never together
in a public restroom on the side of the road
or on the edge of the abyss.
Think about it, we ate the same food
and we drank the same drink
and I never stopped supporting your forehead
by the toilet for the rest of the lost night,
sometimes we even dreamed the same...
