Ocean froth Tumbles forth Upon the sandy shore Tails do glitter bright Beneath the turquoise waves Deep, deep down A rainbow of scaly tails Strong and powerful Their fishy half Propels them onward Past the shoals Hair streams back And dances 'round their faces Blue-skinned and twinkle-eyed Their voices rise And bring forth A haunting melody That gives birth to screams The sailors yell And fight the spell But not for long Eventually they succumb And sink Bliss upon their visages Cold water shocks them And clears their minds But too late For none can live to tell the tale Of sirens' songs And mermaids' tails

The Sirens' Song
Come one Come all To this circus of thought Through the curtains of opinion You will see wonders of creation These animals of personality And tricks of illusions Dark secrets held close Hates long buried Brought out from the attic For all to see Cleaned up and polished Expressions of beauty Belief and disbelief And ugliness And confusion and Stress and irritation And happiness and bliss And everything that makes a girl Human

Human
I Beckon to her Meaning to ****** her with Hope To Tempt her with Fulfillment I appeal to her Longing She wants me She wants to Let Me Out Her resolve begins to Slip She’s going to come to me She’s going to Slide into my Trap Bam! She slams the door I can feel her on The Other Side As she struggles to block out my Voice I whisper to her I Tempt her with the Hope that swells her Heart The light around me Flickers And I plunge into Darkness She holds me down Mentally Trying to Drown out my Voice Trying to Smother me with her pillow “I’m never going to leave” “You’ll never get rid of me” I stalk her with my Words “Listen to me,” “Believe in me,” “Leap of Faith,” “It won’t hurt this time,” “I promise.”

Suppressed, Repressed, Breaking Free
Solitude. A place of my Own To be Alone Silence or Pounding Music Blocking out the Outside world Soft, damp Color on my hands Sticky as it dries Cool, wet paint smears Brushing my hair back Worn, wooden paint brush Rough, peeling Starting to Rust Familiar to my hand Gliding, Gliding Over Clean, white canvas Fumes not Good Not Bad. The Scent of fresh Paint. There And Loved. Inside I am Alone Alone, but Never lonely Like the mirrors of a Carnival Distorted, I Am. There is Angry and There is Sad and there Is Hyper and there is Smart Sometimes Angry and Sad hang out And their complaints Create that Pounding, Pounding, Aching Pulsing Pain in my Head Behind my Eyes and in My Heart. Sometimes Hyper overrules the Others And Smart sits in the Back row Quietly Calculating the Costs Because Smart is also Cold and Alone Observing Life through a Window Hyper can Chatter Away Occasionally Forgetting how to make Proper Words in Her Excitement.

Pain Pain Pain There is nothing else No time for anything else Pain Pain Pain Within my pounding chest Pieces fall Shatter Pain Pain Pain The shells Fragments Embedded Pain Pain Pain Fragile like glass Embedded in my chest Are fragments Digging Deeper Pain Pain Pain The rhythmic beat That thumps out a song A song Of shattered Life Of shattered Love Thump Thump Pain Pain They beat as one As a whole Fragmented Together Beat Thump Pain Thump Pain Thump Pain The broken Heart In scattered pieces Beats Together Thump Thump Pain Pain I endure The beating Of A broken heart Thump Pain Endure Thump Thump Pain Pain Endure, endure As one My chest Houses only pieces My chest Endures The beating Of A broken Heart Bleeding For the one That broke It

I believe in Nothing. Everyone is no one. And No one is a someone. Everything is Nothing. Nothing is never Something. I believe in Nothingness. Because Nothing is always there. And with Nothing I am always and never Alone.
