silly saucer eyes
A lake view
how risky
it's in my nature
poor deer
I think  
that makes you prey
vaguely threatening thoughts
mikecccc May 2017
A dance
A game
this play
it has wide appeal
and a substantial
hatedom
Can see why
too much drama
that is yet too little
for some folk.
mikecccc Mar 2017
we do
we learn
from our mistakes
the fittest learn fast.
Do WE
we must
we are at the top
not that their's a lot of competition
round here
mikecccc Aug 2016
Humans are ants
Humans are wolves
Humans are machines
all of these by degrees
we build ourselves homes
that restrict the freedoms we crave
so we destroy to build again
that can't last forever
but then nothing can.

The ancient  cave folk
Started a fire
And despite
The ignorance
They lived and
Breathed that fire
Is still going
Maybe we can
Put it out.
Inspired by
The piano man.

Ah the price of a life
some say its infinity
unless said person
is really annoying
but people die
for anything
for nothing
so what is it worth
truly
less than ideas
less than rocks
less than so very many things.

Why
Why
Why
so boring
to ask
masochism
is trending
so happy
to empower
A caricature of a man.
When were you radicalized
November sixth
I woke up one day
and saw
our government had fallen.

Up above the clouds
On my very own wings
I look in wonder at the sights
And sounds of civilization
It's lights burning in the night
It's quite interesting
But I wonder how this can be
Since I don't have wings
Then I wake up
Probably for the best
I would probably have flown
Into a wall.

it's poetry
speak from the heart
but all my heart says
is grumble
grumble
grumble
so where do
my words come from
what I've seen
what I've heard
mostly it's what I think
which is marginally better
than grumble
grumble
grumble
in my opinion.

There stands a tree
Almost perfect
So tall so old
Such fine Apples
Except for one
Twisted branch
Near the top
It can't just be
Chopped off
But it is just small enough
To be ignored.

makes you stronger
or weaker
depends on you
and what happens
sometimes
what doesn't **** you
leaves you in a coma.
mikecccc Nov 2015
To each their own
So long as you
Don't consider what's mine
Your own
I vote for liberty
Whatever that really means
A chance for you
A bigger chance for me
The secret
I really
Hand to God
Just don't know.
mikecccc Dec 2015
very little
though
he did show me
what someone broken
looks like
not that I noticed
back then.
mikecccc Oct 2015
I'm haunted
By what could've been
Did I choose right
Did I make a mistake
Am I on the right path
I know honestly
That I can't know
What would have happened
Focus on the now
Focus on the now
So zen so wise
But I can't stop thinking
What if.
mikecccc Mar 2017
Your life
was a threat
not threatening
by existing
but the idea
of having you're life
was a warning
would you be defensive
would you just shrug
would you turn things around
would you could you.
mikecccc Apr 2017
I went to the city
and found that
the tough decisions
from home
were something to laugh at
when this place becomes home
will I laugh to.

Adversity
theirs a little for everyone
and a lot for some

some go through it quietly
and some shout till
their voices give out

but i wonder
why some go through it
and come out the other side
stronger and others weaker
or not at all

what quality is it
and how do you know
when you have it.
mikecccc Dec 2015
If some day
I should have
Kids of my own
I'll tell him/her
/them
The same thing
My mother
Always told me
I won't inject
Your insulin.
She says it with such love.
mikecccc Nov 2015
I know what to do
Well I think
I do
OK maybe
It's impossible
But I have to try
Okay I don't
Have
to try
I can just
Put away those
Silly notions
And listen to you
You know what
You're doing right
You can tell me
The right
Way to live my life.
mikecccc Sep 2015
what can you say
when your favorite people
are hurting
and everything you say
sounds insincere
the history's their
your a snarky *******
but right now
you don't want to be
I suppose
you just say nothing
and be ready to listen.

All your good days
earn you ill ones
with compound interest
or so it seems
when it starts to rain.
it pours
hope it doesn't flood

The great fruit vendor
had naught but lemons
So
I set his cart on fire
and went on a quest
to Walmart.
mikecccc Aug 2016
Everything
returns to normal
the broken things
break again
and the elegant ball room
is once more just a ruin
if only the music never stopped.
mikecccc Aug 2016
A giggle in your throat
as you discuss
the horrific mad mundane
thing
some not all
call the day to day
stop it
be somber
then people will care
maybe.
mikecccc Feb 2016
the sun never rose
we set up camp
and waited for sunrise
but it never happened
the moon is still
just lounging about
is it the end
will the earth
begin to freeze
or is my watch busted
I can wait
for a few more minutes.
mikecccc May 2017
I left my heart at home
I wouldn't want it interfering
with my work
but I could never leave
my cellphone behind.
mikecccc Apr 2016
Under which
I wish to crawl
Has it been stolen
Or did I throw it away
I'd beg to get it back
but who to.
mikecccc Dec 2015
My friend
I told you
the best place
to cut me
in the hope
that you never would.
mikecccc Feb 2016
Discuss the events
Of your day
Just a little
Ways away from me
Not outside my hearing
Just a little too far
To hear clearly
And I'll know
You're in reality
talking about
Me.
Probably saying
Terrible things
At that.
mikecccc Apr 2016
Light
hope
maybe
maybe just
a dull glow
that burns
fools so.
hmm
dunno
mikecccc Sep 2015
A **** defense
you should get
brick walls
spikes maybe.
mikecccc Sep 2015
A great big reminder
Of what has occurred
If you were gone
They might forget
Though most likely
They'd just hunt you down
even if your path
Takes them to hell.
mikecccc Jun 2016
Palpatine eyes
and a grimace
mixed with
pale flesh
a mediocre shave
but just
on the surface
underneath
Underneath
well
nothing much
just me.
mikecccc Sep 2015
No one
Everyone
A simple passerby
A nosey neighbor
A friend perhaps
But can I judge
You for your actions
Of course
Should I
Perhaps not.
mikecccc Sep 2016
good folks
bad folks
neutral folks
all kinds
unless it's a joke
who dies young
the people we like.
mikecccc Mar 2016
Sometimes
I see your eyes
other times
all I see
is the dark sky
and stars
why
is that?
mikecccc Dec 2015
I love toys
I love books
I love machines
I love things
And when you
Stand near me
I really notice
How
Hollow I am.
mikecccc Apr 2016
Surprise
headlights
fight flight
pause
move faster
move fas
too late.
mikecccc Jun 2016
the stones
tied to your feet
are blessings
you could never fly
and this way the why
is quite obvious
so you needn't blame yourself.
mikecccc Apr 2015
Holes in the skull
They hold so much
Lakes of fire
Wells of sadness
Pools of light
A challenge
An invitation
And none of its said aloud
It's just there.
mikecccc Jan 2016
fight the wind
you'll never win
but it will **** time
and maybe
you'll have fun
or if nothing else
we can laugh
at your
determination.
mikecccc Feb 2016
The wind
Blew away my umbrella
It's not raining
I just felt
Like being prepared
Perhaps I should
Be more spontaneous
Or I could carry
Two umbrellas
The next time
I believe rain is impending.
Woosh woo woosh
Creaky windows
Wind sound effects.
mikecccc Sep 2015
A simple minion
Is all you are
You could fly away
At any time
Staying to serve
A terrible master
You could be more
You could be
A flying ace.
mikecccc Sep 2016
As you bake
under the sun
you may feel
summer will never end
but no winter is coming
department stores
are stocking up
on Christmas trees
can feel that winter chill
could be the A.C.
mikecccc Oct 2015
Winter is on the horizon
Soon you'll worry
About being frozen
The day's are growing dark
The jackets are coming out
A good time for cocoa
Snow peoples and frost bite
Best of all the bugs
And the bears will be
By and large asleep.
mikecccc Mar 2017
madness and power
bound in gold
a wish for safety was made
they are too far gone to suffer
probably not what they meant.
inspired by a show
mikecccc Sep 2016
Trailing power
runs through
the whole construction
where is the beginning
where is the end
does it not matter
so long as they aren't too frayed
quite possibly say the unlearned.
mikecccc Apr 2016
Dam you
Impulse control
You **** at your job
My fingers get twitchy
When option to buy appears
Ah capitalism
You have
My heart and soul.
I like shiny things
I can't afford.
mikecccc May 2016
how I serve
all my words
uncertainty
is my dearest friend
or maybe oldest enemy
either way
it's always around.
And i lie

mikecccc May 2016
Rabbits and demons
Lurk in that cap
Stars from the sky
Bedazzle that cap
In a locked chest
Resides that cap
It clashes
With this season's attire.
No
it does not
come in green.
