20/M/United States Am a young guy who was always fixated on literature, but never dared to write his own
This Old Woman With wide eyes and, Open soul A closed mind, Just a tad dull And slow. All in all, I sit, I listen; Her breath, her message. She’s old, and I’m young We talk the lot Of newer conceptions, And of things long, Long, gone. All in all, Our hearts know It’s the same Old Song.

Samsara, or Years
Oh! don’t worry, honey. i may play with my sighs but it doesn’t mean, I’ll play with dinner Oh! i might just eat you alive Without any fuss so, may us, lay beneath the night’s ***** gleam Oh! I can’t wait; for That feeling of My teeth sinking A man loses his Judgment, when he Hears no objection Oh! Our Lord knows No sinners, a true First love: the cannibal’s ******

Death Aesthetics
No, No, I won’t rest yet; Best move on to go on & get. To go on & on & on. I’m running ‘round like a dog without a bone. Without reason, Chasing for something, anything, to become a part of me. To make me whole. I may have lost my wit, & worse my soul. As this pilgrimage, has no end, no real goal. I reckon, I indulge in myself too much, & everyone else. Bringing me at odds, With life or, whatever all this **** is. So, as a prayer, or maybe a plea, Let this temperament within me come to an end. I do sincerely, Wish for a single serenity. No, no, I won’t rest yet; tho’ I’m out of breathe, and I may burn to less. I’ll keep running. Is it to remember? Is it to forget?

Relating Cain
Just the other day, I got hit. Head on collision; By a train And, uh, that’s not to say. That I hate this new state. Y’know..uh, being slain. But funny thing, Y’know Just yesterday Lady Fate rang… Blubbering about “Mistakes” & It being “not too late” But why did Fate Cry? Isn’t it in her name? Shouldn’t she know? That at the end of the day… I would rather just stay?

Gettin' Railed
Here’s where seven people hung themselves; The first woman too fat so she fell first, & fast to the floor. The second too thin, so struggled as the noose writhed at her core A rich man was on the third knot.. The fourth was disgustingly poor The fifth & sixth were a young couple Victim to love’s quarrel The seventh that swung was a bizarre one, the others saw it too… On his face wasn’t regret but a quiet reminiscence of *** & sweat

Asphyxia
I’ve read the words that Made the world. I’ve sang the psalms That praised them. Strung out lyric Belted from infantile lips Ever ignorant, Ever innocent, Of the abhorrent things Done under ritual, devotion, & bliss

Fortuna
my Christ is not, yours. and don’t you go, confusing the two. mixin’ Redemption and cop-outs, like an addict institutionalized; looking for their whorish fix. my Christ, not, your Christ has embraced me like a Father so fervent; doting, devoted, delighted. all this, even during my most gross & pornographic hours. your Christ is not, mine. and don’t you go quoting that verse, about ‘Original Sin’, or some ******** penitence your Christ, not, my Christ is a vapid excuse for a multi-generational blood feud, a Non Causa Pro Causa, for your shit-cycling system, Rooted so holistic In **** and lies

Zealot Erectus
I’m Heavenly Sighted, strangled in a temple so divided. Diagnosed my flesh with an adequacy always lacking. & a soul gasping prayers, that are ‘neverminded’.
