MJ....
JMG Oct 2010
You're finally runnin' out of luck.
You got dealt a ****** hand.
There's time tomorrow to give a ****.
Today will understand.

Unique and beautiful,
What a wonderful flower.
Strike it up. It's four o' clock,
And twenty past the hour.

Every plant is wonderful.
We love them more with age.
But if you pick the Devil's bud.
They'll lock you in a cage.

Legalize
JMG Oct 2010
Come and try my medicine,
If you don't think it works.
It tastes good, smells good,
And I get so hungry, I could eat my shirt.

It helps me stay awake.
It helps me sleep at night.
It slows the sweat in summer heat.
And warms me from the Winter's bite.

It eases the pain of sickness and cancers.
It eases the pain in the knees of the dancers.
It eases the throbbing in the eyes of glaucoma.
It keeps me from ripping and burning my homework.
It slows the decay from Auto-Immune.
It even makes a lovely smell to fill my room.

Why?
JMG Oct 2010
Once you die, you may know
Where you and all your friends will go
But while we're here, you need not be,
Asking why.  Just let it be.

Why do we die?
Why do we bleed?
Why do we love?
Why do we need?

Why do we hate?
Why do we fear?
What is the point?
Why are we here?

If you'd stop asking why, you might find out how.
Just keep your focus on what you need now.

If you live it on down, later you'll see
The reason for what we are looking to see.
But until then, relax.  Level your head.
It is not yet your time to be put to bed.

Put my running shoes on
JMG Oct 2010
I don't want to waste another day,
Reaching for a star I can't obtain.
Tell me.  Is it through?
Are you okay?
Is it time again to turn the page?

I don't want to waste another day.
Lying about reaching for a star.
I don't want to waste another day.
I might just end up broken.

I can't afford to break again.
I can afford to do no wrong.
Because my place in this cold world
Will not be held for very long.

I gotta buckle down.
I gotta put my running shoes on.

Beast
JMG Oct 2010
Eyes glowing in the dark.
Not just two, but six glowing eyes.
There movements are identical,
Each to the other.
For those were not the eyes of three beasts,
But one beast with three heads.
For your sake and that of others,
I suggest that you avoid this three headed beast.

You might never cross his path.
But understand that if you do,
You will no longer be in control.
You will succumb to the powers of this beast.

Devour not one, but three intertwined souls,
And capture a magic that few may possess.
This three headed beast makes soldier's into lunch.
They're no match for him.

Beware,
He will forever lurk in the shadows.
Pray that you never become Prey.

Just a Drop
JMG Oct 2010
I went on a trip one day.
the colors bent my thoughts.
I saw the light ahead of me.
Ever colorful and raw.

I witnessed a pure form of life itself.
I saw the spirit that exists.
Everything I thought I knew,
Always held a little twist.

When you lay your eyes upon it.
Your mind's in disbelief.
It's just one drip of liquid.
It must be something weak.

The domino just fell.
Finally, you're on your way.
There's no stopping it now.
Just hold on tight.

You never though the world you're in,
Could possibly exist.
Until you see your other world.
Dripping from your fist.

The biscuit ate your doggy,
but that's just in your mind.
Difficult to see what's happ'nin
When your face just left your eyes.

Take one, take two, take them all.
You'll be so much bigger when you feel so small
Feel the rhythm of the chemicals,
As you're dancing through it all.
Feel the rhythm of the chemicals,
As it slowly makes you fall,
Into oblivion......

Feel the romance. Feel it hold you.
Feel it warm you when you're cold.
Will the romance make you sin again?
It will surely make you cold.

It will open up its eyes to you
Show you the religion in itself
The sinners become your only friend.
And the chemicals your GOD.
So when you're down and feeling guilty,
Call to your chemicals.
You'll be absolved.

Feel the rhythm of the chemicals.
Feel them dance within your veins.
Feel the romance from your chemicals.
Feel them grow into your brain.

Feel the rhythm of your God.
Let him rearrange your faith.
Feel the rhythm of the chemicals
Feel the rhythm 'til you're cold.

I'm the one you wanna see.
JMG Oct 2010
My hand wants to write, but my brain won't let me.
I want to leave you something so that none of you forget me.
I spill my heart for all of you to hear.
Take away my shame, my pain and my fear.
Take it away; take it away.
I'm the one you wanna see.

Suspended Forever
JMG Oct 2010
I'm in this cage
I'm just spinnin' around.
I fear I might hit the ground,
If I don't turn that page.
I'm in space again.
I'm in space again.
Floatin', there's no wind
Forever I'll suspend.
I'm back from my trip again.
I'm back from my trip again.
Can we find each other?
I can hide you under the covers, baby.
We'll be together forever,
Drivin' everybody crazy.

There the demon stood with a gleaming red eye.
He had a face as pale as winter.
He walks with a light step and he talks with a sly tongue.
He bites like a snake and defeats even soldiers of men.
But I rode on his back until I couldn't ride no more.
So the Killer-White Demon would fail.
And I wasn't even his prey.
It was hard but we survived, and we made it out alive.
But we suffered many wounds along the way.
The demons won't die, they just change their faces.
But the Killer-White Demon is dead.
The Killer-White Demon is dead.
One battle has ended, but the war rages on.

Lies
JMG Oct 2010
The lies got me fearin' the worst.
You really messed with my head.
Babe, you said you loved me.
Then you put me under your bed.

What'd I do to deserve this?
Where's the love? Where's the love?
You kicked me in my face, babe.
See the blood?  See the blood?

I did for you, you never cared.
I never left your side.
I bled for you, ached and hurt.
And all you did was lie.

You lied when it was good.
You lied when it was bad.
You kicked me in my gut, babe.
Through all the times we had.

I gave you a home.
I never left your side.
What more could I have done for you?
How much more could you have lied?

Lie and cheat. Lie and cheat.
Sweep my feet.  Sweep my feet.
Leave me in the dust behind you.
Lie and cheat.  Lie and cheat.

Heroin Eyes
JMG Oct 2010
Somehow you folks might believe
That the sky...
That it just up and happened.

Your soul must be a story
A part of some long book

Your mind is just a dream

Open up your eyes
Look hard for a minute
Open up your mind

****** eyes just don't know where to look
Your ****** eyes can't see

Just quit asking why
Just quit asking why

Open up those ****** eyes

Don't shed any tears.
He's still right here with us.
You really think he's gone?
You really think he'd miss this?

Killer-White Demon
JMG Oct 2010
I remember a pale face
Staring back at me
As he took his last breath
Never once did I give in
I fought him to his death
I wouldn't let it take us down
The killer-white demon

The Killer-White Demon

The strangest one is gone
Old ones getting stronger
I'll still fight to the death
Til their ain't a drop left

Freakshow
JMG Oct 2010
Is life on earth more than just a freakshow,
or should we all just join the circus?
We're all just Nazis anyway.
We were all just born to hate.
So you hate me,
and I'll hate you.
We'll hate til there's no hate left
Hate til your last breath
Ain't that why we're here?

Make me afraid
Afraid of my own shadow
Make me afraid
Afraid of myself

Let's join the circus.
Since we're here to see the freakshow
Get the message out.
Make sure you let the freaks know.
Why not?
Might as well.
I'll join the show.

Come one, come all.
You've got nothin' left to lose!

In Memory
JMG Oct 2010
Would I have felt better
If I had been closer
Would he be around
If I would have called
Is he really gone
Did he really pass
I keep to myself
These questions i ask
I hold back the tears
I want to just cry
He was so young
Why did he have to die
His life was ahead of him
Now his life is no more
When I heard, I was shaken
I felt a punch in my heart
When I saw, I was broken
Torn so far apart
Now I believe
Anything can be taken
Now that I have seen
A great life forsaken

Empty
JMG Oct 2010
Your heart seeks love
For it fills your life with passion
And love is what it finds
But you are still empty

Your mind seeks knowledge
And through the world you search
Now worldly knowledge lights your path
But still you are empty

Your body seeks strength
Because weakness is failure
Now you can lift up the world
But still you are empty

Your soul seeks salvation
But you are filled with worldly knowledge
Your mind ignores your soul
And still....you are empty

Lovely
JMG Oct 2010
Lovely...
Lovely couldn't describe it
The way my heart melts when I'm with you
When I hold your delicate, soft, little hands
My mind shatters
All I can think is...Lovely...
Lovely...

Lonely
Lonely couldn't describe it
The way my heart shatters when I'm without you
When a tear drops from my face...along with many more
My life shatters
All I can be is...Lonely....
Lonely...

Lovely
Lovely couldn't describe it
Words or volumes alike
Nothing could describe it
What I feel when I melt inside your arms
All I can think is...Lovely...
But lovely couldn't describe it

Conformity Kills
JMG Oct 2010
Conformity kills your self-expression
It only leads to deep depression
Conformity grows and never ends
True things that exist are labeled as trends
Inside the system, the machine presses on
Conformity kills as I recite this poem
Conformity kills all the human opinions
Everyone wants to be too much alike
Conformity releases millions of minions
All of us suffer as we lose the fight
Can't we just stop and try to be different
Ending this crap is so far out of sight
Conformity kills
Drains
Steals
All the clothes from off our back
CONFORMITY KILLS KILLS KILLS KILLS

In Arms
JMG Oct 2010
In the arms of the sky
With life surrounding
Your pictures are real
Facing forward in your dreams

In the arms of the world
With death surrounding
Your pictures are broken
upside down in your dreams

In the arms of ignorance
With dysfunction surrounding
Your pictures unknown
Lost in your dreams

In the arms of nothing
With darkness surrounding
Your pictures invisible
Blind in your dreams

In the arms of Hell
With fire surrounding
Your pictures nonexistent
Gone from your dreams
JG, 2004
