Little Bo Peep
Has lost her sheep.
The big bad wolf is full
And sleeping on a bed of wool.
Gh0ski3 Sep 2024
See! See! See the mule as she trots below the bars, carrying the weight of the unicorn on her shoulders
Look at how only pills find their way into her cotton filled stomach
On the stage where she holds the light that shines upon the fairest of them all
So you can watch the princess in the tower,
And notice her cries from the sapphires that fall down her bony cheek
Why don't you spy the masses of she-demons that weep acid over the screen which erodes the paper thin illusions
Spotted illusions, that flash like circus lights which find their eyes upon the pinup doll who struts high up on a tightrope in the air
When the mule stares from the bottom of the stage, is it the thinness of the waist or the wire she finds herself in envy with?

Hear! Hear! Hear how the pig squeals when they ignore her wishes to eat from an empty trough
Listen to her scream for the bones that creak when she moves a little too much
Can she overhear the way they speak of her size, as if there's a prize for claiming the biggest pumpkin
When she tunes in to the radio and hears them praise the waists of corpses in their seats made of lost teenage palates
Then they will make out the subtle sawing and snips where she finds herself cutting off the undesired fat that's lingered for too long
Wasn't she warned that it isn't safe to use a plastic knife to cut off a muffin top?

Speak! Speak! Speak of what you want to see when you look in the carnival mirror that distorts your shape in all the desired places
Then we can **** up to the girls with halos that fit their size 00 waist,
And talk of chopstick legs with an appetite that follows,
So you can brag about how you only eat one at a time
In what manner is it necessary that you chat instead of chew, to distract from your untouched plates!
You ramble on and on about the space that satiates your hunger for beauty
The beauty that has destroyed what I loved about you
When I whisper to myself in the bathroom mirror so full of nothingness
So full...

But I'll still eat the last of the candy in the bag:
Orange bottles that linger my dreams above my lips,
Out of reach,
And out of sight.
I always like to experiment with structures when it comes to poetry, it makes reading poems much more deep.This one's kinda old btw

craving for thai food
spicy clear tom yam soup
eat with rice.

the magnified, mascara applied
                                                    eyes of my skull
burn holes in my thighs
                                       mulling over the size of this hull

i chunder my lunch and wonder of
                                                          everyone else
and if they're also laser beaming love
                                                               i­nto themselves

or if they're boundlessly born with it
                                                              unstained smiles, strained bites
maybe they're just born with it  
                                                   no pained bile or insatiable appetites  

either way, i hardly
                              can infer
if my stomach is
                          half empty
                                          or half full

serve me a slice of pie
with a knife and two forks
and a side of stolen looks

we'll split our piece
equally discreet
severed, yet even and clean

quietly savoring the saccharine saliva
as our tongues linger over
a bite of shared sin
Bhavani Sep 2024
My swollen left cheek
a round bed of marshmallows
pat pat, pat pat, boing!

swallows saliva
drinks a cup of iced milo
an oasis forms

all that ice a shock
to my newly-formed blood clot;
what is this soreness
apricot Sep 2024
Silent empty house
Echoes fill the empty rooms
Alone with my thoughts

Food calls out to me
But guilt consumes every bite
Struggle to nourish

Lost in my own mind
Trying to find balance within
Home is not a refuge
Based off the song "Male fantasy" By Billie Eilish
Funds are low
Food is low
Prices are
High everywhere
we go
Gas is on High
So, is the Supply
Products on Low
It makes you wanna cry
Products on Demand
This makes No sense
Were trying to make a Dolllar out of Fifteen cents
We're Dealing with Struggles Everyday
We some po folks
Lord please make a way!
We're Dealing with the Struggle
For, things have gotten Tight
We're Dealing with the Strain
Lord Please make it Right
Rent is on High
Utilities on High
Everything thing today
has gone sky high
These Struggles are Real
All we could do is Try
LORD PLEASE TAKE THE WHEEL!!!
While these Days go by!!

you lie as a disguise
and want me to love the mask I see
when I claw to reveal
the scars always end up on me
you kiss my war wounds
after my trample under yo feet
you scrape my tears
then plate them n serve em back to me
