The Ripper Apr 2016
A limo ride
provides extra oxygen
flip flop
flop flip
might be the heart is angry
again?
VVheels turn
pavement ends
arrival time
rushing out
room 9 is yours
wait some time
it goes by slovv
X-ray shovvs vve found gold
on to computerized axial tomography
hold the contrast
in comes the nevvs
you're alone
vvhen it comes
The Ripper Apr 2016
Dare you trek into my void;
VVhere {{ vvolves }} strip you bare
of your programming?

Trace the lines of your art;
vvith a svvord of vvords,
to find the breaking point
of your nouns.
The Ripper Apr 2016
VVe survey through vvalls
   uncover lies by redolent Jasmine  
     knovv thoughts before lips
       even meet their syllables
    scour memories since birth
  every embarrassing moment
leaving no stone unturned
  vve are the forever ones
     here before
   and after
verily
The Ripper Apr 2016
Nothing here for you
knife **** the platitudes
count my teeth
so vve
can be equal
brush aside the curtains
so curious of all the
tick
       tocking
                   love
    mocking
eons ago
black
         tar
              lip
                   locking
a death so LOUD
it's deafening
can you see?
are you missing?
can you feel?
are you listening?
The Ripper Apr 2016
Hi there
I am drunk
alone in the dark again
**** poetry && vvhat you
think you knovv about it
pump my ego
hoping for a pump of your ovvn
looking in the mirror
hey self, ******* self
death vvill **** your soul
you ******* *****
  life
  ******
  ******
death is going to love you
love is going to death you
mash you the **** up
sleep hard pounding heart
hi heart, ******* heart
die already
**** in the toilet
morning come
Clonidine
after noon
Amlodipine
future
ashes
for
us
The Ripper Apr 2016
Ruler vvith the eyes
  the sun grovvs older
    over our shoulders

      leaving behind
        vvords of indignation?

          Then bring on the sorcery!

              discover the roots
                vvhere there's no vvater
                   sand parched sockets

                     harder becomes softer
                        pockets become coffins
                           light is no longer
The Ripper Mar 2016
Thrashed interminably
to find a Death
like this,
Death like this;
digs d
          e
            e
               p
                 ,
to make      room,      for you:
that
obdurate;
                    swart;
                  ­             gelid;
                               merry-go-round.
In the centre of
                    maelstrom;
tranquility lives,
as 393 echos evaporate
                                 amid Amaranth
                                 & Hibiscus,
                                 Amen.

The Ripper Mar 2016
I am lost to the winds, but a feather, nor you the wearer -
This time is brief and incandescent,
a well salted egression ... A trade in place -
Too otherworldly for you so I sail the ocean alone,
you are shorelined and it's time -
Farewell.
