They say the good die young, so I never misbehave.
Self destructive living, I got one foot in the grave.
Suicidal thoughts hover over me like rain clouds.
Burdens on my shoulders weighing heavy like my chains now.
Never without my necklaces unless I'm in a moshpit.
One day, I'm colorblock. Next day: gothic.
They say it's bipolar. I just wanna buy posh fits.
'Cause I wouldn't wanna be caught dead not flawless.
So I'm always dolled up in case death surprise me,
I can be the flyest dead body up on LiveLeak.
Self destructive living, I got one foot in the grave.

So I'm always dolled up in case death surprise me,

How was I supposed to know the Real me
With all these clones of clones around me
Why am I feeling so empty
Why are these people changing me
Is One of you supposed to help me
How was I when you first met me
Was I different than how you act normally
I need to find the real me
Can you Hear can you answer me
Murder, and It’s killing personality
Can’t remember, who I’m personally
Real thoughts buried dig deep
Misplaced all the good memories
Just history forget eventually
Feels so real am I even...

Can you Hear can you answer me
Murder, and It’s killing personality
Can’t remember, who I’m personally

Misplaced all the good memories
Just history forget eventually
Feels so real am I even...

Birthing Blitzkrieg Bruised
worn wit's fang
omen's punctured prank
hoisted odds hampered
relieving rusty orders
monstrous myth melt
dripping dark delves
eerie experiment etched
foiling felon flesh
mental horizon's mesh
fragile future's confetti
humming hacked hymns
quarantined fate flicked
callous contractions cruised
birthing blitzkrieg bruised.
'20:05:14:18:56
Note: Of masticated mentality.

Encompassed
Around and around and around we go
Where we'll stop nobody knows
Encircling, and dividing and ruling
Infinitely spiralling.
Ever decreasing circles
Never getting to the point.
Curves, coil and bend.
Blend and discriminate.
Never ending or beginning
Always being.
Circadian. Daily. Lunar. Solar. Yuga, Universal rhythm repeating.
The Big Wheel keeps on keeping on.
Turning. Returning.
Up, down and around.
Cycling. Recycling.
Evolving. Revolving.
Moving and motionless.
Where we'll stop nobody knows
Encircling, and dividing and ruling
Infinitely spiralling.
Ever decreasing circles
Never getting to the point.
Curves, coil and bend.
Blend and discriminate.

The Big Wheel keeps on keeping on.
Turning. Returning.
Up, down and around.

I’m a women
I’m moody..I’m classy...I’m sassy...I’m complicated....I’m a women.
Brown skin flawed with imperfections, still beautiful, watch you turn you head.
My shape as I walk by switching my thick thighs from left to right, curvy waist, big breast, no implants nice and round booty, soft eyes, beautiful smile.
I’m a women or haven’t you noticed yet ...
Define me as a women play with me as you will but you will see the true me once it’s revealed.
I’m a women, sweet and sour, naughty and nice I’m everything you think you need. At least that’s...

The faster I run, the less further I get
spring has grown
fangs and is going
for the throat of man
and i want to go home
and sleep for a year
our lives are finger
food for God
and I haven't washed
my hair in three days
thoughts are a cul
de sac
feeling a morgue
the human spirit
goes down like
cheap whiskey
and burns
out of our
minds
out of time
out goes the
lights
and the dark sits
in the corner licking
it's lips,
a hungry
cat...

Pride
A hunter prides his trophy kill,
While mother nature mourns a loss.
He selfishly fulfills his thrill,
At another creature’s cost.
How very tough, you are,
Killing in the name of fun!
A lion never stood a chance
Against a semi-automatic gun.
And then you have the gall
To mount its head upon your wall,
To glorify your ignorance—
I'm horrified and appalled.
You’ll make your lion rugs,
While you rape the lion cubs
Of a home they’ll never have,
And a mother’s lion love.
Celebrating...

To mount its head upon your wall,
To glorify your ignorance—

You’ll make your lion rugs,
While you rape the lion cubs
Of a home they’ll never have,
And a mother’s lion love.

Broken Ego
I wish you would take something I've done,
That I find pride and joy in, and make the feelings gone.
Why can't you tell me where I've screwed up in my artwork?
Why can't you tell me what you don't like about my handiwork?
Even if it's just the fact that it's not your style,
You have no problem telling me when you don't like something I've bought or pointed out, because it's not your style.
It hurts more to have unyielding praise,
Then for you to berate me to my face.
For you must think I'm stupid enough to belive the perfection you see
(Or claim...
