In my day the forth of July was a day to barbecue burgers and to celebrate the freedoms we helped to earn. You kids today just eat burgers you bought at Burger Barn and freely pass gas.
...Burn
the crown that speaks of faith
so the heart could
break free from the chains of
structured divinity and
decide who
the miracle maker
truly is
Bones turn brittle when
they're dry as
words turn into something else
when blood conceal the lies
We choose the sand over water
and hope for a
miracle when the choking becomes
too much to bear
Shame...
we all wanted to be fooled
so we could blame the
shadows under the
Sun...

It was a tumble of disbelief
A rumbling in my belly
A stumble into grief
Through jumbled telepathy

It was me
Looking right back

But only and exactly in the flash
Where irrational brashness
Was splashed upon shattered glass
As he slumped over the dashboard
No more magic wands
Or spell bound words
No more ghostly haunts
Or reptilian birds

No more monsters in the dark
Not in the pond nor lake
No more pirates in the park
Not at the bar nor plank

I hid them in my heart
To harden in the flame
Dearly they departed
To indentured fame

Maybe I will try my hardest
And make a change

Maybe I'll be dishonest
And do the same

Be a monster in the closet
And win the game
She sleeps alone tonight
Her pillow a lake
Her blankets a tomb
Her heart a boulder
Her eyes twin waterfalls
Her lips a chasm
Unending
Ever changing
Unyielding
But soft and fragile
And injured beyond recognition.

The vile of acid touches his tongue,

It is bitter, burning and horribly wrong.

Lost or found, anything goes.

His slipping mind and this aching crime.

Everything ruptures corrupted by life,

even white in the black shallow mime.

Stupid, dumb-****. Why can't he talk?

The shadows dance on the dark,

alluring and cunning giving a spark.

Observe the scorching rays of light!

Neon and blinking on this gruesome night.

The spinning, spiralling world, and this opening void,

Every thing confusing this young, troubled boy.

Look at him! Look at him dance,

to the tune of an aphonic trance.

Blurred reflections on condensed mirrors,

terrible headaches, and vicious tempers,

Everything shifting on such hazy conditions but,

Will he dance and regret again?

This grotesque and stupid addictions.

Sometimes, the days grow fleeting
Maggots and worms constantly surround your being
and finally, a fitting throne!
But you are not worthy enough to call even it your home.
Chime goes the clock,
as your ground falls through
Not even maggots should look up to you.

Multitudes of drops
Shower me with thoughts of her
Drenched in happiness

Sensual rains dance
Down the curves of her mountains
Her valleys rejoice
