Cataclysmic Musings
I'm done with holding
Public negotiations
I withdraw my application for mass acceptance
The dunce has returned to his corner
Gotta make some serious elbow room inside my mind
Ride a wave that's parallel to this
Acrimonious algorithm
Swim in the stream of my cosmic rhythm
Not an exit strategy...no,no
It's a Hyde in-sight type of thing
Just a coping mechanism
To help me deal with all of these isms
As I patiently await
The fate that laid waste the dinosaurs
Public negotiations
I withdraw my application for mass acceptance
The dunce has returned to his corner
Gotta make some serious elbow room inside my mind
Ride a wave that's parallel to this
Acrimonious algorithm
Swim in the stream of my cosmic rhythm
Not an exit strategy...no,no
It's a Hyde in-sight type of thing
Just a coping mechanism
To help me deal with all of these isms
As I patiently await
The fate that laid waste the dinosaurs

OUR PAIN
What will I do with this broken heart?
By the claws of this world, I am torn apart.
My smile taken from me so long ago.
In its place left a grimacing sickening glow.
A frown that is etched upon my grace.
A sea of Tears fall, erode my face.
Nothing left now just empty space.
What possessed me, that I should die this way?
I reckon its my lot is all I can say.
So I focused on all the Pain that I feel.
Only thing to me that makes life seem real.
My throat is bound with chain and reel.
My loins are pierced with zeal and...

release
she is on her knees
feet and hands chained loosely to the ground
he whips her with devotion
until she is bloody
and wet
he comes close behind her
wraps his hands around her neck
tightens his grip as she stiffens against him
as the oxygen dissipates
so does her guilt and shame
he releases her, and she collapses into him
with gratitude, and lust
folding herself safely into his arms
he takes her until she comes
he holds her limp form tightly against him
- I would never hurt you
he whispers
- I know
she...
feet and hands chained loosely to the ground

folding herself safely into his arms

Suicidal Ballerina
Well, you're dancing on a bridge
an arabesque, a pirouette
it's hard to watch, but I can't forget
oh no I can't
You may be a swan,
but before I'm gone
I hope those wings
can save you
Because baby, you're going mad
baby, you make me... sad
maybe you'll never be the best
I'll ever have but something
about the way you hurt yourself
hurts me more than it should have
Your grand jete, my heart's in pain
you leap across the arches
and I can't look away
blood from your hands
slipping on...
an arabesque, a pirouette
it's hard to watch, but I can't forget

baby, you make me... sad
maybe you'll never be the best
I'll ever have but something

classic tears of a clown: Misery loves company
I'd sit and ponder
Knock on every door of my head
Until my thoughts are empty and hollow
I would wonder if I ever cross your mind
When you are all up in mine
Sometimes I just want to die
But thoughts of you wouldn't let me go
We Made up, broke up the next day and got together again
Went through all of that just to do it again
I'd say I'm leaving
Pack up my things and go
but you wouldn't follow
The ocean in your eyes always brought me back to your shore
What is love without some misery?
What is misery...
Knock on every door of my head
Until my thoughts are empty and hollow
I would wonder if I ever cross your mind
When you are all up in mine
Sometimes I just want to die
But thoughts of you wouldn't let me go
We Made up, broke up the next day and got together again
Went through all of that just to do it again
I'd say I'm leaving
Pack up my things and go
but you wouldn't follow
The ocean in your eyes always brought me back to your shore
What is love without some misery?
What is misery...

I'm so sorry, I can't love you.
You said the words I can't say back
But we're like magnets, can't be apart
We've been together through so much
Not having feelings for you hurts
You were with me when everyone left
You did for me what no one else will
You were the one I gave my first
You were the only one that cared for me
It's not what you say but what you do
That makes painful not loving you
I know it isn't fair and I promise it's been tough
Because I really like you, but it will never be enough
You say you love me for what you see
How...

All intoxicated eyes on me
Uncomfortable
Disconnected from the crowd
Inappropriate
Unwanted hands touch my skin
Harassment that never ends

To love again
the plain goes no forever
as far as the mind can see
lifeless, barren, grey
stretches to eternity
built on the denial of humanity
sacrificed love and compassion
hiding my failures and sin
I am drawn here
seeking solace in the grey
seeking to escape the pain
of living day to day
where no one can hear
the screaming of my soul
as wolves of my making
rip the flesh from my bones
driving me to my knees
feasting on my sins
and the coldness of my heart
hating people more than loving me ...

Twist & Turn The Reality
Oh my.
oh my my my
Wanna know something funny?
You aren't alone.
This place
We call it home
It is home we have it here
This place scattered in bones.
My do the dogs of sin rattle you
Breaking you down
Making you scrounge for a new sound
My oh my oh my.
You are but a pawn
Something layed in the lawn
Ever so gone layed out into the dawn
Power up and powered down you are.
What do we do
The little things like you
Do we boil you and make you stew
Maybe lay...
