American I'm a formalist but I'm getting less strict as I go more insane.
As if to walk away from Hell, he paces, Going the opposite of anywhere, Escaping from his fellow fickle faces. Yet, he can't escape himself, his master, The one humanity had best beware-- He's a supernatural disaster.

To Fly from Hell.
Dreams aren't for those with wings who cannot fly. The ostrich and the penguin tell the tale That if you can't you also shouldn't try; Why flap at all when feebly you will fail? They're content obeying gravity, And keeping dreams and feet upon the ground. Flying to them is sheer depravity. Being on earth, they know they're heaven-bound. They feel the wind-- no need to sublimely soar. They see the sky-- no need for close-up views. No need to win-- there's no one keeping score, No need to wag their wings-- they cannot lose. With useless wings they've no hope of getting higher. That's fine with them; they've given up desire.

A Pristine Alexandrine.
What life do I take pleasure in but taking glory in my sin? If there's a god that finds me lacking Then he deserves a decent smacking. I may not believe like you or you; I also can't know for certain what's true. My mind will not allow me to.

I'm Too Good for Titles.
I love you more than life and death, and all the words of earth combined. I'd give you even my last breath, and in your heart I might just find the thing that I've been looking for, the love I crave so frightening. You're not my lost and loved Lenore, but something much more quieting. I'm speechless in you presence, though I'd never give you up to doubt, and all my feelings I can crow will never let you run about. I love you better than myself, and that, my dear, defines itself.

****** thing I wrote.
I've trudged the tracks of righteousness alone And walked the walk of wickedness with grace. I've done things I cannot now condone On either side-- you'd see it in my face. I thank god for this life which I have wasted And all the gifts which it has given me, But how do I repay when I've not tasted The lavish love of such an old decree? "By faith" you say. I say "you have it all, For I'm not one to disbelieve my doubt But faith? Oh, please don't make me lol. Betrayal changes what men are all about." Perhaps god's nothing. I'm fine with it; Ex nihilo cogitatione fit.

Sacred Science.
We are angels, made of light, Becoming more each other when we touch. But we matter more than mass. Are angels waves or particles? Waves crash, But what do Particles do? Collide.

(Need a Title!)
Our liquid souls collide in liquid lips. No words are needed for tongues to entertain Each other, slick as flickering fingertips, Blistering with the passion of the insane. We share our plasma while there's something to burn. Brand your name within my irises. Eyes memorize as much as they can learn, Like a computer scanning for viruses. I rise like heat when clothing melts away And now our tongues can fulfill their destinies. No more thinking; it is time to play. In slightly less than seventy ways we please. The ****** is slithering and slakes while nearing Exploding in ecstasy-- sensational searing
