Darkness Before Light
Adam Jones Oct 2014
Darkness is pure
Untouched by light
Convert of be consumed
Creatures creep around
Never wanting to be found
Crawling and shifting about
Pure black without a face
Is the other half of the human race
Folded hands reach out
To folded faces who never get the point
We drop our pens and burn our papers
When our efforts are through
Even from the start
Brightness will die soon
Light is pure
Unless perverted by darkness
But in the fight for space darkness wins when the wind is blown and the candle dies
The candle dies
The baby cries
But the hungry dog is smiling wide
Splitting open scabbing stitches
Blood seeping into rough ridges
It's his time to consume
Eat or be eaten, only that is fair
Look around the darkened room
You're the only one there
Ask around ask around
You're the only one who cares
Drain the clothes to make room for new stains
Our clothes are too new, too clean, too plain
The person in front stares just the same
Carbon copies copying carbon copies copied by carbon copies
What is life but a series of constant repetition
Darkness existed before light.

Azure Stones
Adam Jones Oct 2014
Azure sapphires
Glare like sharpened stone
The raven beaked rapture
Swooped down, to **** and capture
And carry me away to their home

A Human Experience
Adam Jones Oct 2014
Pink silky pillows of soft skin
Hidden in memories resting deep within
I can see beams of blue and maroon
Outlined by pale skin dancing with the moon
I can see gentle gestures from strawberry tongues
And i can hear whispers urging us to come
But these are now only memories
Kept in the dark slowly slipping away

Quiet Existence
Adam Jones Oct 2014
Silent nobodies
Hidden in our rooms
Time passed on
Turning yellow to blue
Concrete surroundings spell out curses
The cold torment of our tomb

Morning
Adam Jones Oct 2014
Shades of cyan
Dancing on the sky
A luminescent surface
On the backdrop in my eye
Pantone twinkles peeking through the trees
A gentle breeze waking up the leaves
Even respiration as I walk
Minutes paint the sky
With clouds of chalk

Broken Breed
Adam Jones Oct 2014
Glance through dirtied glass and see
Masses of fog, filth and disease
Grimy, and fundamentally weak
Crawling out from the bowels of the earth
Squirming like the worms feeding on dirt
The prime race soon to be extinct
Buried in murky mud far beneath
A light-less torch burning miles of trees
With darkness stretching to the corners of the world
Reaching into the depths of the deepest seas
fuckinghumans
