What I remember most
are your delicate
fingers
creasing the edges,
folding and turning,
twisting and shaping
the everything of
anything you
touch
into all the different
creatures of
creation
until finally and at last,
I rest warm in your
empathetic palm,
panting and thumping,
dripping with your
immaculate essence,
almost as beautiful
and imaginative
as you.

and your intimate lines,

You're on my mind
You know I can't stop thinking about you
For the last two nights I've been dreaming about you
It's always the same dream, you don't want me
This morning I woke up and I swore it was real
I lay there for a while and thought about all the things that I had to do in the dream
How fucked up it was and it took me that long to figure out it was a dream
I thought I had it beat
I thought I had you out of my head for good
I must have slid back because now you're all I think about
I was so proud of myself
I was actually healing
But now I'm back in...

Screw that notion for a start!
By Stanley Collymore
In the wake of the increasing murder
statistics in the UK with some very
particularly heinous and vicious
murders across the whole panoply of
age ranges there are vocal calls that
our country should, unquestionably,
be given legislative powers, to thus
specifically determine, who should
therefore be basically permitted to
have children, and very conversely
those that shouldn't be allowed to.
As I see it, there's a crucially large
hole in this discernibly barmy, but
supposedly...

King for a day, fool for a lifetime
Pat yourself on the back
give yourself a handshake
your ability to bore me is impressive
do you practice in front of your mirror?
you must have thick skin
the layers must have accumulated a horrific odor of skunk
what happens when there's no one left to put to sleep?
your obnoxious tendencies irritate me and all the others
you succeeded in being, "That guy" no one likes
Here's a suggestion...
stop trying to one up or outdo whatever I or others have to say
it's not an attractive trait
if you can't be respectable to...

wonderful urge
one step,
two steps,
each
i thought
would
get me
closer,
my stomach
filled with
butterflies,
i wrote
her poems,
she
read them,
i cannot
conceal
any of
these
occurrences,
but her
rejection is
disappointing,
i thought
we were
friends.

First Goodbye
I cried for you
The tears you couldn't cry, I shed.
I cried for you.
My heart cried out, but you withdrew.
I waited for your words, instead
Your love for me was left unsaid
I cried for you.
The tears you couldn't cry, I shed.
I cried for you.
My heart cried out, but you withdrew.
I waited for your words, instead
Your love for me was left unsaid
I cried for you.

Killer Kid! 7 Years old and the complete murdering psychopath!
By Stanley Collymore
This lad who at 7 years old quite
callously and uncaringly killed
a sleeping adult who clearly
was absolutely, totally unknown to him
and with whom he'd previously had no
interaction whatsoever, an undeniably
cold blooded murder, rather evidently
for which he wasn't punished neither
has he shown or vaguely expressed
any remorse for what he clearly did
even to the extent, three years later
at still only aged 10, he threatened
very openly, to murder some class
mates of his at the very...

AND SO I WADE...
So very not sure where we stand
we must talk and agree on a plan
sure mistakes for sure were made
somewhere did your feelings fade
I'm no longer feeling so very sure
and how much longer I will endure
since often soliciting to ensure
for quite awhile I was your demour
Now its all quiet and you're hidden
are you no longer with me smitten
and our together has since ridden
finding our love no longer forgiven
And so I wade....
So is this the end of our past days
will we now just go different...

it has rained (heavy here)
it has
rained heavy
here, like
little stones
at
my windows,
i will
keep myself
boarded up,
protecting
myself, finding
a comfortable
space,
and remind
myself
there is
still
some great
beauty
even during
bad storms.

No One Stays Out Of The Family
This is
the house that
Guido
Costello once called
home before a thug
named Dominic The
Butcher
Costello
found him.

Affection Makes You Weak
She snickered in my face
I told her all the things that I felt and she laughed me right out the door
I can still hear her laughing at me
Even when I'm alone, I can hear her cackling like a witch
I want to get out
Get in my car at night and drive an endless road to somewhere but nowhere
Affection is a disease
Don't succumb to it, it will wipe you out!
It's for weak fools
I've moved on
I told her all the things that I felt and she laughed me right out the door
I can still hear her laughing at me
Even when I'm alone, I can hear her cackling like a witch
I want to get out
Get in my car at night and drive an endless road to somewhere but nowhere
Affection is a disease
Don't succumb to it, it will wipe you out!
It's for weak fools
I've moved on

THE LONELY ONE
The lonely person often walks unnoticed
with unsteady step and eyes unfocused,
failing to keep pace within the crowd.
An approach of reluctance to everything,
like a crutch under the arm that stings,
maintaining balance amidst turbulence.
Seeing, yet, did not recognize nor care,
as if that person was as normal as you,
beneath the shrouded cloak they wear.
Loneliness can feed on pure isolation,
depression its friend, little is noticed,
there's signals, a lack of communication.
