Cotton Chess
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Study these lines
Run my fingers across your vindication
They seem to be the stitches in my patience.
But rips where it seems to be seams,
When you blame all the casualties on me.
A duo of thievery
Often shades what I believe to be
As a better game than these extra pieces need.

This Hypnosis That I'm In
Kara Goss Oct 2012
*******.

"Dizzy, Dizzy, Spins
This Hypnosis That I'm In"

Tears in my eyes.

"Why, Why, not again,
A spiral downward trend"

Floor meets face
Panting, in need of rescue.
Feel, I. can't. breath.
Shouldn't of mixed those ailments!

Projections of the mouth

"Please, No, Please, Please
STOP,
This Hypnosis That I'm In"

Upgrade
Kara Goss Oct 2012
You were composed of dark liquor,
I said give me your best shot.
You put me on my bathroom floor,
Now all I want is a six pack and a pretty smile.

Cheater
Kara Goss Oct 2012
I crept thru the night
The day and afternoon
Behind your back
Away from you
Whispers get louder
When they're in a crowd
So my business, is never on loud
But I left it for the finding
For the hearts unwinding
Careless with my timing
But don't be unaware
That the reason for my crimson mood
Is cause you caught me catch his stare.
Kara Goss Oct 2012
From contact, a poison
A venom in veins
Bound by these strains
Incubation insane
Strikes for notice
Pleads for no time
Sending you off with flowers and rhyme
Kisses and wine
Serpent's vine meets design
Oh but the shine
Not one silver outline
Was the guide for which we find fine
Thoughts of purity perceived by men in their prime
But who am I not to want to experience mine?
Who says what is all?
Who says what is null?
Who governs the ideas strung together by skull?
Experimentation
Knowledge of those
Some impede while others grow
Can't decide
Axis from allies
How is one foe to know?
------
Furthermore
What I adore
Has taken one quite a journey
Why we hurry to hurry?
Often I still worry.
Who are the elected who elected the jury?
I can't wage the battle
From both sides
Why should one have to choose
When the two can unite?
Morals, Values, Ideals, Games
Hand in hand they control
Yet they contain
Potential to change
But what if it is opposite of what's taught?
The learning to accept
That things can get wrought
Twisted and mopped
Has lead me nowhere but to go and to stop?
So the question is this
For my wish list
When is the right time
When is the mask too tight
when is it not alright?

Unlikely
Kara Goss Oct 2012
My bipolarity has lead me to no truth
Just mixed emotions and no thoughts of a you
No thoughts of a me, life, death or rebirth
I am otherwise blessed with a curse
Can’t think, can’t breathe, can’t even begin
My start is at the exact same point as my end
Nothing even matters
All care is lost
I’ll still seek a successful future
But these hopes are store bought
I wish it would rear its ugly face south
I feel every nothing from my toes to my mouth
In the middle of the compass
The magnet has yet to guide me
And joy right now seems just too unlikely.

My Only Apology
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Arrows bent and broken because the elixir is all it took
Lying by other’s side, I never noticed your curious look
Because I was never meant to be, convinced many nights to be true
But the addition of a proper verb ending could only lead me to you
Often I tried to re-route, who?
The object of this poem into a being of supremacy
My hatred for your positivity when I fed you the meanest thing
My perceived invisibility to reflector window panes
The way each sentence remained pure throughout my twisted games
Speech wrapped in profane, even the strike of your match couldn’t eat my propane
Told lies to my allies, that we were only cordial foe
Placed you into my list, nothing more than a mere John Doe
None had seen that you were the only key to my door
Couldn’t tell I was a perfection seeking ***** to the core
All you needed was to position me and my muzzle to the floor
Was only after filling my pocket book with prospects and stars
But I kept an honest policy in saying I would keep you forever within my bars
How I long for the fog placed on voltage stroked sand inside my cars
Our every imperfection should never be objects of debate
But in your opinion, these bonds aren’t meant to wait
You state them as pipe dreams, but I spark to make them real
Time is my only obstacle, but never prevents me from what I feel
Increased heartbeats and clammy hands need nothing more than half of truth’s peel
Beginnings were only lust from 1,000 word described squares
Visible bones were stretched only to stop piercing blue stares
Questions only lead me to empty in why I committed the seventh sin
The time clocks maturity is solely what keeps you from being kin
Heartbreak’s only defeat is that I never let you win
I despise my desire to eliminate the protection of your thinking cap
If one didn’t look so striking I would let the follicles grow back
I had wished you understood my love for arguments chaotic
You never realized I was nothing but predictable and robotic
I had a sick obsession to push you to limits catatonic
Broke locks on Pandora’s Box because I knew the abundance of my stocks
The only emotion to be shown would peek if you had to kick rocks
Lonely in my current state is never why I create this draft
This triple forked road has no signs leading to your path
Realization it was You, in my many aftermath
Every ray of light wants to be pointed to you at the heights dawn
My only apology is for trying to capture the king without moving a single pawn.

Richard
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Two weeks ago
I met you,
****** cover band
Loud music
Lots of friends, both mine and yours
Your friend, asked me
My friends, asked who's he?
Just a friend is what I answered
Knowing very well, that would change soon
Lust lead you to tell me your true feelings
"I like you, I just want you to know that"
I dove fingers first
Tracing your feelings
And treading in mine
One week ago
You became distant
How could I fall so quick?
How could you leave so, sudden, so strikingly painful
Yet, only two weeks ago
I just met you.

30's Movie Scene
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Swirls his coffee up close
Hat cocked, smile tilted
Black & White
Tapped her fingers one by one
Upset, red lipstick
Heavy conversation...
4am tends to bring you that
She keeps getting lost in thoughts
He just orders pie
Scribbles on his check
Tells the waitress a whisper quite too loud
Engine start up heard from back door
I've lost him once again.

Quiet Conversations
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Who are you?
the one with the red eyes and devil face
rummaging through my storage
and picking up all that needs to be kept
what are you doing?
with all my baggage and up tight memories locked inside your box.
how is this happening?
the eviction of my opinions purely upon command.
Woman, stop talking to yourself.

twenty second century
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Made by wins
Created by loses
Crafted by upsets
Molded by shoutouts
Supported by accoplishments,
Always shot down by a lack of originality.

Faceless Faces
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Ovals, the one and only whom we offer objects worthy of obtaining as we aim to see the oracle in others.
Semi Circles, the sense of surprise and superiority in which we seem to seek in all that we wish to supersede.
Crescents, created by the cool and calm to causally cover the constant fear of camaraderie often kept from companions.
Faces, ****** by those who figure that fun is something not worth feeling.

Is that all there is?
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Pay checks and movie stubs
amongst reciepts and wrappers
buried beneath fields of dust bunnies
and clouds of unused smoke
is that all there is?
Graded approvals and first take judgements
within statement making garments
dependant upon conditions and factors
and one can't forget limits
is that all there is?
Genuinely fake smiles and unpiercing sharp eyes
around the time of no boundaries
next to missed alarm clock rings
and ever so important transit missions
is that all there is?
Talk back and rumor mills
spin webs of classes missing caste systems
yet gaining entry into future endeavours
so clever these days of ours
is that all there is?
Awkward congregations and a sense of forced happiness
paired with seemingly healthy attractions
combine to create an enviroment in which only the parasites can dwell
is that all there is?

Options of Gossip
Kara Goss Oct 2012
Locked up fingertips of ghosts past seem to knock on my door with all types of inquisitions,
pessimism,
is never something I adored,
furthermore,
what better place to place your plate then a palate in need of some swords?
Better yet,
bask in those regrets you've used to mold your destined route
and present a fool with a new tool to aid him in his doubt,
without, the heartbeat the brain is awfully useless,
multiple choice check list, you can take it or you can use it.

More Than Simple Affection
Kara Goss Oct 2012
skipped the chapters in the book of love
you on page one
swang from the rafters with the morning dove
rise the evening sun
my letters were bolded
yours were second best to none
more italics and stressed sentences
you a peaceful minded friend
more than previous pronoun
promised to the end
you on stages of laughter
agreement to disagree
me, i went past the laughter
straight fits of arguing
apologies and sorries
lead me into these trees
promise not to skip the page without you next to me

Salutations
Kara Goss Oct 2012
extend
eyes look
first at it
then at eyes
a smile perhaps
maybe a forfeit
out of honor
often regular in common place nature
respect is shown
the gesture is known, by many
fingers placed with heat interchanged
an object of measure
given to friend or foe
quite the lovely present to gauge one's character.

A Day In The Life
Kara Goss Oct 2012
A feather has been placed on the breast of Mother Nature only to be blown away by the winds she created,
crafted out of good intentions and placed onto the wings of irreplaceable mystic holding super powered
beings that claim the ability which mere mortals only dream to obtain.
Spreading for all to see, each climate of generously sparing and over populated monstrosities
unable to be reached by force in calves and thighs,
these which i object to call by given proper letters haunt me in conventional senses.
Ugly, foul, wretched, I personify my adjectives as ammunition for these paper dwelling drawings
that seem so fascinating to common folk. Fly my mother told me, fly.

Modern Men

flow with me, feel. the breeze between thighs.
row the boat. amongst crashing tides and, waves
beautiful waves of flesh. warm. not opened.
accepting? punctuation not deserving.
worth all the work. however; not. the. serving.

Humaninstruments
Kara Goss Oct 2012
eyes hurt
pained from the sight
ears feel
motives of humanity
skin grooves
on wood with no grains
nose tastes
the smog of future endeavors
mind asks
if any of these have made us better

— The End —
