#disruption
The badger was digging all out,
In search of some grubs, no doubt.
With dirt flying high,
He let out a sigh,
And left quite a mess all about!

Confirm the fact and fate
Of a life of contrariety & frustrations,
With a note on every date,
And a count of its disruptions.
Bear it all with amusement,
Be a witness and shed the torment,
Give it beautiful words for garment,
Help heal the worlds' ailments.
You are the maker of your Joy
So wait not for the end of all ploys,
To grant yourself the gift of radiance,
And step into moments of only gracious dance...

Blood is the only story I can tell.
For a fragile and damaged brain gives no cure,
and either chooses chaos or new birth.
My soul was the only currency I could sell.
Now I am empty and unleash the monster within.
So, deeply, I fell in love with slashes of red.
I gave no mind to life or death and thus
laid my wrath to carnage, sinning again and again.
And by my mirth, released the hungry wolves.
I was exulted at the sight of them.
After, I traveled to the brink of Hell’s chasm.
Staring into the pit black as obsidian, I jumped.
Torment and misery had been my only companions
and in the face of great heretics, I was welcomed home.
I was born from sin and so stained from the beginning.

A funeral is my mind.
Where former lovers
and silver-tongued liars
attend their wake.
I spare no life when I can take.
An invitation from God
is what you’d need to depart.
But there is no God to be found here,
only your grievances and faults.
Stand steadfast and ready,
my reviled lovers and liars.
You’re in my dark abyss now
and you’ve taken your final bow.
Your procession has arrived.

We all broke our rules for someone unkind,
Lust and pretty words can make you blind.
Sometimes echoes of past mistakes will slip beyond the dark line,
Do not cling to old memories while making new ones this time.
Begin to trust that your instincts will guide you true,
Decide to choose yourself instead of letting others choose you.

In the beginning…
I remember that once I was a calm sea
I had always let others dictate how my life should be
But thanks to you, I’ve awakened to the harsh realities
That the only person who has my best interests at heart is me
You may run your mouth, spew your hatred behind my back
Your trivial nonsense will get no rise out of me
For I am now a wrathful storm hell bent on revenge
So I bring with me the power of lightning and thunder
And with the promise of never returning
I pull you under
Now that you see who I really am
Should you test my limits once again
That will be the last time you ever see the sun
Because I am the rage you created…
And I am done.

I am the pretty thing that lives under your house.
You left me there to rot, to be forgotten
like a flower that's never been watered and withers.
So how ironic must it be
to see a single rose bloom from my grave?
I am the pretty thing that stands next to your bed,
watching your chest rise and fall.
I bend down to whisper in your ear
and though you may have taken my voice,
the air coils and delivers my message.
Standing, I withdraw to the shadows.
I am the pretty thing whose face suddenly appears
in the dark space of your twisted mind
where you thought you buried me for good.
Gasping for breath, you wake up drenched in sweat.
You wonder if you're being irrational or going crazy.
I am the pretty thing that came back.
How lovely it is to make you insane!
You look beautiful in that straight jacket,
surrounded by alabaster walls with no windows.
It's only when you’re finally captured that you drop all pretense,
professing that it’s my blood that is forever stained on your hands.
I am now the pretty thing with a dagger in my smile.

i no longer wish to be exceptional. be boring. be ordinary. do not stand out. be real. be authentic. cleanse your mind and body and start over. it’s never too late to start over.
i only wish to exist, that’s all. it takes a lot of strength to exist when sorrow, disruption, and misery follow you around, swirling like a black fog that constantly engulfs you. it takes so much willpower to see through the fog that when i stumble out or gasp for breath, i realize that ordinary IS exceptional. to survive the absolute hatred of being forced to live, i only wish to exist, that’s all.

which cards will you draw today?
lethargy is a fickle friend sometimes
so i wish for moonlight within the clouds
of marble floors, rolling paddies that
commerce plows swiftly, masked
soldiers marching zigzag between
the glare of pink slips
and streams of granulated sugar

mementos
richly held
hidden in
fractured chest
big people
shifting boxes
heavy
light
silenced
a child's fissure
clasping favourite shell
close
swift salvage
in tight world
rescue from
gaping hole

6am
His face was too familiar
The unwanted and out of date
A real gentleman
Someone who cares
Despite that prevailing optimisim
What’s he here to do
*
I appreciate you coming
That deep burning brow
Handing it to a shocked friend
Whose schedule don’t allow
I’ll learn to compromise
Despite significant disruption
I still won’t show any reaction

Right now, as we speak, there's a little boy, aged five
Pushed aside on the corner of his mat, where he naps
His fingers are clenched onto shredded crumbs of bread
He managed to get his hands on this morning despite his mother's constant nags
About having to save the last few bits for his new born sister
Ashes and rubble are his best friends ever since he can remember
Disturbance aches him no more
For everything he's ever known are dents
He wouldn't know what the other side of the rainbow looks like, let alone both
For he's never encountered a rainbow during his yelps of pain
Pressure, abundance of destruction, humiliation
His innocent weeps never reach aid
He is now used to it
No more room to present emotion
For everything he's encountered will forever be frozen in time
He wouldn't know what peace is, ever
For contrarily that would be foreign to him
Therefore, somewhere in this world, silence takes over
This little boy whose whole life has been built on lies and disruption

They say you can’t keep your prying eyes off of a w r e c k.
The extended siren diminishes even as it creeps closer,
the road only grows harder, pierced glass and incarnadine blood.
Clear in your head where you're setting those sights,
disregard the stench of burnt metal and the doused fire of the passenger seat,
block out the screams that streams into your ears.
There is nothing to be curious about.
The slow, infantile pause while your pitying gaze
shifts across the midnight scene
is the only thing the jaded victims can feel,
beside the rusted pain destroying their decaying bodies.
Strangers are the distraction from the d e s t r u c t i o n.

Reckless
Action can
Create crisis-
beaware.
Please-
Don't fall victim
To Ego's
Allure.
Hold fast
The light
You've been
Harboring
Within.
Beware
Division
From the
Ides of March.
Tread lightly,
My dears.
Walk soft,
With good thought-
Prepare
Your mind
And sit guard
Your soul.
Chaos' Shadow
Is passing by-
Much is brewing
Has been for
So long.
It was
Four years ago,
We knelt
Pregnant with terror
Of what life was
Hurling our way,
And here we are
Nearing the end
Wounded
Yet,
Standing
Strong-
As we must.
The final
Square off
Is
Today.
Speak softly,
My dears,
And again,
Tread lightly.
Deceit is slinking
About.
But trust your heart
And what you've learned
For tomorrow,
It finally ends,
Either one way
Or, some other
Tomorrow,
It finally begins.
