See me breathing, And watch me die. Curling your hands, Around my slippery veins Spurting blood, I smile, As you fumble in fear. Trying desperately to stop this chaos. That I will only begin again, As we sit in suture, And the nurses laugh outside. Scalpel, scalpel, on the wall, Who’s the most fucked up, [...]

Your majesty of tragedy Covering me In sacrificial serenity Darkened debris Demeaning The amenity Of this identity Found outside of me Self destructing Eclipse of time Instructing The climb Of my abducting Crime Time Climbing the mirrors lie As I stand by And watch shadows defy Reality Crumbling to the floor I cry As my [...]

Stinging eyes, Beads of sweat, Tears of rage, Surround regret. Carnival carnage, Carrousel madness, Moving backwards, Aluminum horses, Pumping up and down, Manes frozen, wrong direction, Carney’s watching, silently, As I ride around quietly, No music, No smell of food, No laughter, Just this widowed mood, Leading me out to pasture, The darkness here after.

Could you be, ever further from me? The farther I spy, the deeper the dark, The longer I cry, more profound the stark- Raving madness is, that blends in, Within, this desperate sin. Again I search, un-earth each Birch. Scavenge some dignity from the roots, Hide away from your eyes, suits- Me just fine. To [...]

How is this Possible To bleed Thoughts like sand Across marble Mentality Scattered in showers Of such Immeasurable Contents Clouding Contorting Ripping at me So deeply Completely Bent to break Every piece So sweetly Yet Horrifically Shadow me

So we lay Down upon this golden field Whispering of dreams And Castles we will build What if one of us should die Laughter Lighting our hearts Hands reaching Comforting The future of new starts What if one of us should die Sparkling eyes Reflecting waterfalls Sunlight dancing Atop diamond studded walls What if one [...]

Slick with the sweat Of a thousand serpents Whimpering the wept Way of the wounded Innocents Folded within Rivers of tears Miles of mayhem Cut through earth Like a killing frost Beneath each breath Counting the lost With each tear that spills Across each Shattered statue of chills Dark with the deceit Of a decade [...]
