Gathering
Are bystanders innocent?
He goes into a quick descent
And wonders at the staring crowd
Stone faces, nothing said aloud
He inhales his final breath
Finds comfort in his waiting death
While the crowd melts slowly in the night
Seeking another tragic site.
He goes into a quick descent
And wonders at the staring crowd
Stone faces, nothing said aloud
He inhales his final breath
Finds comfort in his waiting death
While the crowd melts slowly in the night
Seeking another tragic site.

Watcher
I watch her nightly,
Around her windows I step lightly.
Peeking in,
My fun can begin.
I’ve learned her routine,
By going unseen.
I just want to hold her,
I need to be bolder.
But her latched on man,
Always ruins my plan.
Though tonight something’s amiss,
Maybe it’s time to steal a kiss.
My entry is not blocked,
Tonight the door is unlocked.
A simple turn of the nob,
I can feel myself throb.
Long have I waited,
It almost feels fated.
What can I say?
This time her husband is away.
Around her windows I step lightly.
Peeking in,
My fun can begin.
I’ve learned her routine,
By going unseen.
I just want to hold her,
I need to be bolder.
But her latched on man,
Always ruins my plan.
Though tonight something’s amiss,
Maybe it’s time to steal a kiss.
My entry is not blocked,
Tonight the door is unlocked.
A simple turn of the nob,
I can feel myself throb.
Long have I waited,
It almost feels fated.
What can I say?
This time her husband is away.

The ghost train.
Hi, my name is Glen Harper. When it comes to exercise, I love to walk. I've developed a routine I do every day and Ridgecrest road, near where I live, is the perfect place to do it. There's hardly any cars, it's quiet, and the scenic beauty is unbeatable.
Well, get this. One day, about a half-mile down the road, in back of the thick trees where the old rusty abandoned rails sat, there moaned a chug-a-chug shuffle with a whistle's high-pitched squeal loud enough to wake the dead.
"A train? Here? How could that be, I thought?
And yet, rolling behind those...

SICK
I called in sick to work today;
Sometimes that’s not so bad.
My head is stuffy;
My body’s achy;
My hands and legs are kinda shaky.
My eyes are weary and sort of blurry.
My sinuses, too, have started hurting.
My nose is dripping; my stomach bloated.
My cheeks, in fact, are kinda swollen.
With that, I called in sick.
I thought the average flu for sure.
Who wouldn’t with what I’ve got?
But something told me it was more than that
When I turned the TV on.
There were riots in Virginia.
There was looting in New...
Sometimes that’s not so bad.
My head is stuffy;
My body’s achy;
My hands and legs are kinda shaky.
My eyes are weary and sort of blurry.
My sinuses, too, have started hurting.
My nose is dripping; my stomach bloated.
My cheeks, in fact, are kinda swollen.
With that, I called in sick.
I thought the average flu for sure.
Who wouldn’t with what I’ve got?
But something told me it was more than that
When I turned the TV on.
There were riots in Virginia.
There was looting in New...

Frost Bite
I think I have some frostbite
'Cause my toes are black and cold.
My ankles have lost their feelings,
And my knees feel like they're old.
My fingertips are tingly
And my wrists just will not bend.
My elbows will not move at all
And my sores just will not mend.
I think I have some frostbite
That has settled in my ears.
My cheeks feel stiff and swollen
And I cannot feel my tears.
My eyes are wide and staring.
My lips are stiff and blue.
My tongue as frozen to my gums
And my teeth are frozen too.
...
'Cause my toes are black and cold.
My ankles have lost their feelings,
And my knees feel like they're old.
My fingertips are tingly
And my wrists just will not bend.
My elbows will not move at all
And my sores just will not mend.
I think I have some frostbite
That has settled in my ears.
My cheeks feel stiff and swollen
And I cannot feel my tears.
My eyes are wide and staring.
My lips are stiff and blue.
My tongue as frozen to my gums
And my teeth are frozen too.

Pull Me Under
I’ve been through a storm in a raging sea,
Beaten and battered by nature’s fury,
Lost in darkness as far as I could see,
The tempest was my soul’s judge and jury.
I’ve been blinded by the dreadful lightening,
Hanging on in the depths of the unknown,
Pummeled by monster waves it’s quite frightening,
Scared and terrified that I was alone.
I’ve been stranded in grim situations,
Losing faith and hope tossed in the vastness,
And then I felt a swift indignation,
Facing death my fear turned into madness.
I’ve screamed at...
Beaten and battered by nature’s fury,
Lost in darkness as far as I could see,
The tempest was my soul’s judge and jury.
I’ve been blinded by the dreadful lightening,
Hanging on in the depths of the unknown,
Pummeled by monster waves it’s quite frightening,
Scared and terrified that I was alone.
I’ve been stranded in grim situations,
Losing faith and hope tossed in the vastness,
And then I felt a swift indignation,
Facing death my fear turned into madness.
I’ve screamed at...

No Safe Place
The howl outside
whipping branches
in awkward directions
the approaching darkness
ready to envelop us
in the cry of misery
A destruction of promise
ready to leave us tattered
among the fallen leaves
barricading ourselves
in these houses
to be tormented
in a cruelty
of another kind
whipping branches
in awkward directions
the approaching darkness
ready to envelop us
in the cry of misery
A destruction of promise
ready to leave us tattered
among the fallen leaves
barricading ourselves
in these houses
to be tormented
in a cruelty
of another kind

Loud Darknes
The loud darkness
Within my heart
Is dimming the light inside
Echos of death
Closing all the doors
Trapping me
In this obscurity
Where no one is home
Wondering if I'll get out alive
Crying alone
In the infinite dark
Terrifying whispers
Consuming my thoughts
Trembling as fear
Dominates my mind
I am afaraid
There's nothing left
Of me to be saved
Remaining lost
In this dark eternity
As a memory
Of an infinite light shattered then
Consumed by the loud darkness ...
Within my heart
Is dimming the light inside
Echos of death
Closing all the doors
Trapping me
In this obscurity
Where no one is home
Wondering if I'll get out alive
Crying alone
In the infinite dark
Terrifying whispers
Consuming my thoughts
Trembling as fear
Dominates my mind
I am afaraid
There's nothing left
Of me to be saved
Remaining lost
In this dark eternity
As a memory
Of an infinite light shattered then
Consumed by the loud darkness ...

Falling Victim
Falling
Falling
Falling deep down the dark hole with thorns threatening to impale me
Into the arms of the monster who calls my name
Stuck in the the chains that keep me in place
Feeling his firey touch upon my bare skin branding me
The pain of his teeth puncturing my felsh as he feasts upon my breast
My cries and wails fall upon only monsters ears
Monsters over looking the beast and cheering as he continues his cannibalism
Tears and and blood streaming down to the floor as I beg for it to stop
Razor like tongue scrapes my fleash down...

Trust Someone....
True crime is one of my favorite genres,
And though I value my life, and my loved ones, precious,
I'm tired of being overly cautious.
And I know you've been hurt before,
You've been lied to before,
Had your friendship betrayed, or had copyright on something stolen from you before.
I've tried to see your viewpoint,
But that doesn't mean, that I can't trust someone, some point,
Sorry if I dissapoint.
I'll do what it takes to stay alive,
I'll do what it takes to keep those I love alive,
I'll be extra cautious to stay alive....
And though I value my life, and my loved ones, precious,
I'm tired of being overly cautious.
And I know you've been hurt before,
You've been lied to before,
Had your friendship betrayed, or had copyright on something stolen from you before.
I've tried to see your viewpoint,
But that doesn't mean, that I can't trust someone, some point,
Sorry if I dissapoint.
I'll do what it takes to stay alive,
I'll do what it takes to keep those I love alive,
I'll be extra cautious to stay alive....

The Night
Have you heard about the time
what they call the night?
Well if you ain't, check out this rhyme
and I’ll fill you in , Alright?
So it’s that period that comes around
straight after the end of the day
In westerns they call it ‘sundown’
yep, that’s what the cowboys say
It’s also when the owls come out
that's when they like to hunt
When they see a mouse running about
they swoop down and grab that cunt
I once went...
