The world blurs,
As the storm clouds my vision.
I struggle to stand straight,
I cant stand at all...

My breathing is shallowed,
My head is seeing double..
What is this?
Why am I weak?

Stand... Straight..
I cant see...
This world is spinning,
All around me..  

*(faints)
True poem....
Josiah Wilson Dec 2013
You know what?
I don't even care
I'm ******* wasted now
With all my usual flair

You might know
I could give a ****
I'm drinking down this bottle
To get rid of the sham

When I'm drunk
I can't think for ****
And I don't remember
Not a little bit

So ***** you
I'm getting wasted
And this sweet, sweet burn
Is just the *** I'm tasting
Quick with silver
Slash of red
Upon the floor
They lie dead
Killed by fear
Though they tried
Their screams I still hear
For I watched them die
My hands are stained with sin
Though I can't recall it all
I knew where I had been
And I knew who was to fall
They tried to control a power they will never forget
A power that had won
A power I regret
Their fear caught within their eyes
Their pale figures drained of their soulful lies
They pressed their luck when they pulled the chains
Nothing left of them but blood stains
Goodbye all, I wish you farewell
For you may be next, only time will tell....
The unpredictable hour of ebony arrives.
No choice have I but to sustain my absence from my affairs
Till the vastly capricious moment of inconvenience fades.
A quick Sijo written during a recent blackout in Norton, England

life will break your heart,
life must be seen.

I think being a tragedy
is a state of defiance.
My life of cynical conclusions
leaves me a present:
comedy and tragedy.

Lord reverse time,
because I believe the best comedy
has passed.
This is a blackout, or cross out poem I made from one of my homework assignments, instead of reading it like we were supposed to, I made a poem.

warm, strong hands;
the delicacy of his fingers
softly racing
d
o
w
n
the small of my back
losing my breath
heart beating;
lump in my chest.

a world unknown,
I have yet to feel for
someone
new,
my world spinning endlessly
as we lay
on the azure blue of his sofa couch;

feels so soft,
soft as the heaven and the clouds
as they wrap
             their arms
                          around the sun
and it slips into Darkness....

Darkness.
days of it.
nights of it.
yet the most remote light found
in the darkest of places

a cold lonely night,
riots; tragic news; insecurity...
he turns them into
radiance,
to the white of a sandy beach;
his soft skin, his beautiful gaze...
I get lost in that blue-green ocean
that bores into me
with all of their innocence.

I let him take me away
away from it all;
in that moment...
and as my skin brushes melodiously
against his enchantment
I know somehow that everything
has
changed,
and it is so far
from
                                                              undisclosed.

if only I could keep the sunshiny Darkness;
the togetherness of our loneliness;
the stillness of our fast-moving passions...
locked away secretly,
                                        a secret between (your lips and mine.)
