Try
Try
Try your best.
Even you have never finished first.
Try
Try your best

Stay focus
Stay determine to finish.
You get more accolades that way.
Then those that just surrender

Try
Try to succeed when challenged.
It's the best motivation to any of your enemies.
Defeat happens, when you fail.

Try at love
Try at marriage
Try at all events in your life.
Simply try.

I hurt you,
because I want you
to love me.
I desert you,
because I want to
be chased.
I know I cause you pain,
I want to be your love's teary stain.
And when your fever keeps you up at night,
let my skin be your strap to bite.
All these things I do,
really,
I want to hurt
for you.
Small Muslim children, blown to bits by bombs
But our normal, Western lives go on
We read it in newspapers, we see it on T.V.
But  to us it means nothing
It doesn't affect you or me

Red hot hatred
Red hot sun
Roadside I.E.D.s
But to us it doesn't mean a thing
It doesn't affect you or me

Planes dropping bombs all night, all day
Destroying homes and lives, but what can we say ?
We read it in papers, see it on T.V.
To us it means nothing
It doesn't affect you or me

Young men swearing Jihad
Willing to die for a cause
But we don't understand it
We never will because

To is it means nothing
It doesn't affect you or me
Just something we read in the papers
Or see on T.V.
Give up the ghost
Pour water to try to put out the sun
5:47 am, take off my glasses
Rub fingers on​ my face
Woke up aching, half on
And off my bed
Stretched, screaming
Awfully upon the rack
" I have pains in my heart which
Have taken my appetite "
Go bow down to Robert Johnson
Godlike
Poet extraordinare
" I have stones in my passway
And my road seems
Dark as night "
Ended up dying on his knees
Howling like a dog
A hellhound on his trail
Well I guess it finally
Caught up with him
I hear it's terrifying
Footsteps, padding, panting
Slavering, enslaving
80 years on and
Little has changed
" I have pains in my heart which
Have taken my appetite "
So, go pour buckets of rain
On the sun
Steal the moon and
Stash it in my backpack
Then run off drunkenly
Laughing
Laughing
Laughing at death
Laughing at life
What else can you do?
When there are;
Guilty lying tombstones
Obscene newspapers
Dead T.V.
The poisoned glass of whiskey
The dying mother
The weeping boyfriend
The creeping boy fiend
Drugs and alcohol
" Stones In My Passway "
Living too slow
Dying too fast
Stealing the moon
******* on the sun
The young girl beaten
And ***** in broken glass
The poisoned death
The poisoned life
5:47 am
Stretched upon the rack
I told Graff 1980, one of my favourite poets on this website that I would post  a surrealistic poem
Well here it is.
I wrote it after waking up from a wierd dream, still drunk at 5 47 am.
What's scarier than strangers
And all the things that they don't know
Don't know, don't feel and if they did
They'd never let it show

They have no fears, definitely no phobias
No terrors in the night
No doubts, no worries, not even concerns
They always know that they are right

These strangers are the ones in an angry mob
In the lynch party too
They join the army, even the police
They are not like me and you

They vote Conservative, own pit- bulls
Get involved in, even start pub fights
I've never really known one of them
But I can spot one on sight

These strangers include the rapists
Child molesters​ too
I even believe in traffic, they are the ones in front of you

They​ used to buy Phil Collins
Now they buy U2
They put Englebert Humperdinck at No. 1
When ' Strawberry Fields ' got stuck at No.2

These strangers are so scary
I don't know what to do
Now I never dare to go anywhere
In case I become a stranger too
Today's my birthday and I think
That tonight I deserve a drink
Me, the Mrs,a couple of bottles of wine
I'm 45 and I am feeling fine

We've got a couple of friends  come to visit
The drinks go around, the stories go with it
A happy time is had by all
As the night outside it falls

It feels good to be 45
****, I'm glad just to be alive
Nightclubs are no longer my thing
Just friends sitting around, having a drink

But to be honest now, I wish they'd go
So me and my wife could be alone
My hospitality only goes so far
Now I'm ready to throw them into their car

I don't know what I'm doing
I don't know where to go
Full of anger
I'm rotting
The one person
I thought was there for me
away from me,
She's running
I didn't see this coming
The heartbreak
of a friendship
its frightening
This feeling of
Abandonment
so familiar
It kills me
Just **** me
I would rather die
Than to feel this pain
Its better than being alive

People tell us when we're wrong,
point out our flaws,
make us feel un-normal.
But what is right?
What is normal?
All this- this hatred... and what for?

- Can't we just help one another?
