POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
everything I write was born in that moment, and will live on forever :)
Rubber Duckies
Bathe you’re me in the sins of
someone else
so I can feel guilty for more shit
I haven't done,
be sure to rub me with salts
from the dead sea
cause it seems completely fitting.

Labyrinthine
Awakened.
Everything is misery
unless you pretend,
fantasy, is where I long to be
empty in my head.
The journey down was quick.
feathers are frequent
and pounds are wasted
on flesh of twisted tongues,
lies are ears and truths are deaf,
everything comes undone
No clocks are on the walls
so time wont tell anybody.

When The Pieces Scatter
Dream me different
and let it be,
I am the contrast
of something else
this is all fantasy,
capture me,
steal the sun
hide the moon
I have all day for doom
and gloom,
haunt the halls of this
wicked heart
keep the secrets
that broke it all apart,
I am but a shell
of something else...
I have to be...
has anyone truly seen me?.

Another empty vessel
sailing away
wrecked and abandoned
set adrift.....
Now that's rough.

Faucets and Facets of Me
I turned the water on
to drown it all out
(there's something about that noise
that calms my inner fruitcake)
listening to it, washing it all away
washing it down
down
d

down
and then it's gone
for now,
yet something will always cause the water to be released
and make me flee to the nearest sink
to listen to it pour, to feel it kill all the pain
with just a simple rush of water
to drown it all out

Molasses-Flavored Candy-Coated Popcorn and Peanuts
Life is a fucking Cracker Jack surprise,
basically just a random piece of shit
placed strategically at the bottom of a bag
waiting for you, or me to grab it
smiling then of course frowning
cause who the fuck wants a sticker of Susan B Anthony?

Take Your f**king Shoes Off, No Tracking Magic Bullshit Into My Lexicon
I could use a lot of pretty words
I could..........
just not today and I wouldn't bet on tomorrow either.
Over doing the already gaudy sunshine is for other clowns.
Watch my umbrella twirl, swirl and come unfurled
that's all it's going to do
that's it.
you saw it right?
wasn't even cool, just a faded dark blue.

Bring It
The birds of darkness are upon us
the night shall be long
days shall be short,
and you and I will be dead.
nothing can live on
everything wiped away
no legacy no history
and that's ofuckingkay.
Take one last look at what humanity has done
and never wonder again.

Get Your Canoe Off My River Of Tears
My heart does not bleed
it screams,
something like agony
only worse.....
I don't expect you to understand
with your selective humanity and whatnot....

Do Not Resuscitate
The stars have stopped twinkling
and my heart has stopped beating
but my life continues on?
Let the Reaper have me
so the world can weep
for something it has never known.

The Stained DNA of Withering Saints
Cursed words
roll off sliver tongues
to pierce my wretched heart,
burning in ways indescribable
and yet I somehow yearn for more.
punish me for future deeds
because I am bound to do more harm
my fabric is stained with insanity,
no amount of washing will ever get that out.

The Stillest Waters
Drown me in this life
so I can cough up death
nothing soothes it only stirs,
I am not returning
I am not leaving
I just am.
