36/Et kaldt mørkt sted Attempting catharsis.
A dormant fear is stirring, Tremors in an ocean trench. Tsunami waves of panic Flood the shoreline village of my mind. I’m broadcasting intricate distress signals, But your Red Cross sensibilities Cannot decipher the code. One more second of living like this And the many people I have become Will surely all drown. “Wait! Is that a lifeboat in the distance?” “No – it’s just another day.”

Obvious Person Is Obvious
Hand write                    ( Hands right                                   Sinistral kid) Me a love poem.                    (A sonnet?                              Whatever) Make me feel like a queen,                    (Like Joanna of Castile?                               I know who she is, you **** Like I am worshipped and adored.                    (Like Imelda Marcos then?                               I have more shoes) Make my heart flutter                    (Arrhythmia                               Whatever) And swell until it bursts.                    (Be careful what you wish for                                ......................) Treat me like a princess                    (Shanti Rajya Lakshmi Devi                                I've Googled her as well) And make all my dreams come true.                    (I dream of a loaded gun.                               So you can **** me?) "No, just myself. All I want is for you to ******* feel something".

Abdicate Already
So maybe you deserve better? So maybe I'm just the same. And does it make you feel clever, For letting go of things That made you important? This feeling has to die. I never wanted this and I didn't want to try. It's not the gun that's the killer, It's the bullets deep inside Of the heart that is poisoned And you're screaming all the time. I'd rip my own skin off to make your feelings mine. I'm not staring, I'm just asleep. I'm not staring, I'm just a sheep. I'm not crying, my eyes began to flood. I'm not bleeding, this blood is ******* mud.

Houdini's Last Laugh
I gave you a chocolate bar last night. As if that could soften the blow of divorce. A divorce that hits, With all of the force Of things that came before the last few scenes Of this remorseful divorce. I invited you to breakfast. As if eating cancer inducing bacon with our children, Will close this void. A void that has grown, As you try to avoid Eye contact with the man who annoyed, But was gravely ill And took no joy As his marriage became This hideous void. I love the smell of freshly signed divorce papers in the morning (sic).

A Chocolate Divorce
She Rides around the supermarket - Got her head on tight. She Rides around the supermarket - Got to flow. She Steals glances with a gun and Runs away. She Steals children with a gun, so Start to pray. The Final bells are signalling Hell to pay. The Final bells are heralding The judgement day. I am broken waters and made of scabs. I'm a broken down drink of water, laced with scabs.

Check Out At The Checkout
Just straight repeats are playing In the darkness. "Beat me" proceeds burnt out, ******** wisdom. Broken, beat-up, second hand, Used emotions, Carve grooves and ruts so deep On fractured psyches. "Don't you want to turn it off now, Take their hands and give them cleaning?" "Don't you want to burn the house down, Gather ashes and give life meaning?"

Six Past Down
Once upon a time my breath Caught so hard I thought my chest, It... might... explode. It might explode and the thought that I, I might fall down and then just die. This is the end. "But there's love, love on the kitchen floor" - "But there's death, death at the table" - And my heart Will break itself in two, Because I'm ready willing able. So don't stop.

Dear Diary...
Under the bitter sunshine, You had to beg me to be still. Still I could not contain my thoughts Of how all these things had come and gone. So, people the boards with those who play their parts, Those who no longer want to feel strong. We wither under your watchful gaze, We crumble under your wrath and scorn. We didn’t choose to have our hearts So empty, yet so full of dirt. I didn’t want to drink my weight In this poison of my father’s choice. Now as we lay in broken beds, Not alone, but still apart, I will dream upon that summer’s day And lament the loss of your civility.

Medicate, Then Meditate
So, you're dead? HUH? What do you mean, "you're dead"? WHAT? This is just typical of you. A man of your age should've known better.

Father's Day
Break The heart Of the one That broke you. Smash! Burn The lives Of the ones That bind you. Smash! Tear The flesh Of the one That haunts you. Smash! Smash, just for the sake of being heard.
