English Hey, I'm just a guy who scratches down verse and metre every now and again. I consider them the literary equivalent of embarrassing daubs, guiltily scribbled in an old notebook.
None of us are really happy anymore, we just have fleeting moments of pleasure. The rest, the rest is just emptiness a void we're drifting through And for some reason we're all nostalgic for something none of us can quite remember.

Plague
Death on two legs Now on four legs Excess of sobriety I want to taste tachyons They just keep coming and coming and coming thoughts like a shattered mirror 7 years bad luck Bad luck Fickle mistresses in a ****** dawn No more eyes Make me blind Cut me Hit me Make me bleed Make me feel Or don't. I think I'm mad.

All our blood is just as red but we never bleed the same we cut each other, to watch it flow but ourselves; like blood were rain Watch us bleed and chuckle stranger but your blood is just as red

Bleeding
You taste your blood Like the copper in a penny For a moment it's all you know Then the noise returns the hate, the screams get down on the ground and all you can think of is not the fear or the pain or the hate but how much you pity them for it.
