Micheal Wolf
Who
In all I have no purpose
I have become counsel
Whipping boy
Harlequin or joker
Simply a sounding board
No fabric or mass
Simply
A reply
The toll of being a father

Terror in the darkness,
Snakes wind their way across walls.
There's a spotlight, slowly closing in.
A child stood as the light grows scarce
That little beam of light, of hers,
It will slowly fade away
And those snakes that wind across the walls,
Slowly steal the light away

La libertad vive dentro de mí
está en mí, no en mi locura.
En mi capacidad de imaginar.
En los rayos del sol bañando mi cara,
en mi capacidad de tomar decisiones sabias; y de amar.
En liberarme a mí misma.
De todo miedo.
De toda ira.

La libertad es estar enjaulada,
con alas amarradas;
cerrar los ojos;
y poder volar
sentir la sangre fluir,
la voz correr,
volar,
trémulamente
súbitamente
corriendo por mi piel,
como  un papalote de colores brillantes
atrapado en mi piel.

La libertad está en cerrar los ojos,
escuchar el contorno de mis labios,
de mis besos a nadie.
En sentir mis pensamientos;
detener mis propios impulsos.

La libertad está en luchar contra el manifiesto a la locura.

Contra el sentimiento de estar parada sin piso bajo mis pies.

La libertad está en luchar contra lograr escuchar el silencio.
El silencio en el centro de mis pensamientos.
En el ronroneo de los colibríes y en el canto de los pájaros.

En todo eso está se encuentra la libertad.

Y en el ruido de la máquina de escribir del psiquiatra del pasillo que escribe y dicta mi diagnóstico.
Que existe, y produce un violento destrozo de mi borderline, golpeteo tras golpeteo.

Y la libertad, sobre todo, duerme en  la cama 14,  donde existe mi refugio, mi limbo, y mi salvación.
En 1, multiplicado por sí mismo, que es infinito, como el aleph que tengo tatuado; y en número 4, como el de los 4 pilares de un oráculo griego que adivina futuros, incluido el mío.
El día 28 de Enero, por desición propia, me interné durante 11 días en un psiquiatrico, debido a mi padecimiento, este es el resultado....

Miss Taken
"She."

Miss Taken
You call her names,
just to see her weep.
You say you know her,
yet she cries herself to sleep.

At school, she's tortured,
at home, she's abused.
You laugh at her now,
just for you to be amused.

Bumps and bruises,
Blue and black.
While you laugh,
she starts to crack.

The principle walks in,
the day she's not there.
Saying she killed herself,
now your filled with despair.

It's your fault,
you did this to her.
You caused her to do this,
The pains' growing richer and richer.

Have you learned your lesson?
The guilt is fading in.
She's gone now,
Feeling the worst you've ever been.

She was crushed,
You are too.
She was hurt,
Too bad "she" was you.
I wrote this in class one day while thinking to myself, "how many people in the world commit suicide in one day?" It's happened to me, so just sharing my thoughts. Hope you like it(:

Chauntelle Laflen
The wisdom of the world lies close,
in every ad and song;
Whispering  their coarse complaints
and their sweetly ****** sentiments,
that so hideously colored the very attitude
of the people once subjected
to its cheery caterwauling,
leering out from the nostalgic billboards.
The monstrous whining hum
of the spoiled cities
echoes loudly off the haunted bluffs
and peaks-
the abandoned parks
sit quietly,
simmering in discontent
and harboring flora
with a wicked unease;
seething with a desire,
a thirst for revenge,
that even in earth's creation
was never fully quenched;
The raging inferno dripping off the walls
in violent shades of fiery green and gold
strangles the life from this once bustling city-
creeping sneakily to reclaim
what humans thought to govern,
to control;
Turning the cities brown and vacant,
like the souls of the leaves scattered
on the naked cold ground.
Where once a city thrived,
and where Flora  takes her revenge;
purging the black polluted streets
with green oxygen and life;
Flora's revenge remains  
dedicated to this change-
In a city
of growing ruin.

Bad Night

Police sirens blair miles away.
They are coming
somehow I know
but all I can do is keep walking
they go by so fast they miss me the first time
and throw it in reverse
both are out of the car instantly on top of me
fitting my new bracelets
Broken words try to explain what happened
but I don't really know
They say jail is where I’m headed because I said I’d **** her
and I left a pretty big mark on his head
where the bedpost hit him
Still ****** I had to pretend to feel remorse
when all I wanted was for him to get off me
¿Qué mierda, coño!
they said that night in that cold *** pit while they tested us for ***
the real punishment came the next day
when dad’s drunk *** finally found the courthouse
and they turned me loose
with forty less dollars in my pocket than when I’d arrived
I guess the temptation was too much for their slimy hands
I'm a couch *** with no money.
I want to laugh but there's nothing funny.
and on the plus side they say my fathers heart is beating funny.

I'm looking for that job but there's little opportunity.
I would smile if i had a reason
i would relax but i dont have the luxury.
dad i still need you please to leave me.

i have to many tears to shed
im getting  dehydrated.
im so lonely i cant even get voices in my head.
theres only one. its mine broken and sad
all i do is wish for a bed and pray for my dad

sometimes i want to laugh and cry at the same time
usually happens when i'm a little high
what i did to get a little by
when time flies
or slows
i end up in a back yard
with somethin rolled
it's twisted
like the weeds
i just like to get high
at first it's a rush
then it subsides
i find myself in a world
that no one but me can see
satisfied and nourished
i'm free

Clear off the bed
and come lie next to me
or lie with me
or crawl under these sheets
and die with me
or without
I'm used to it
but I could get used to this

Clear out your mind
and sink down low with me
or get high with me
or hold my hand
and lose some time with me
or without
I'm used to it
but I could get used to this

Clean up your act
and fall apart with me
or fall, apart from me
or fall, a part of me
and take some time to cry with me
or without
I'm used to it
but I could get used to this

Clean out your car
and run away with me
or run to me
or put it in reverse
and go back to the start with me
or without
I'm used to it
but I could get used to this

Cleanse your spirit
and embrace this pain with me
or brace for pain with me
or take a moment to put me back together
and just be with me, with me
or without
I'm used to it
but I could still get used to this

I was one of the firsts
And now I am last
I am an immortal
So to Earth I was cast.
Stabbed and fell
From the Heavens I was gone
I put up with mortals
So, how long Lord? How Long?
I feasted on pure blood
And now it’s all dry
No-one is worthy to be bitten
So I wait and lie.
Angels fall
Demons come,
Humans are mere mortals
Trying to have fun.
Stuck here
Until it all passes away
The spores of human nature
Will eventually go astray.
