The clocks are ringing twelve, Prissy people comin' through, Doddering in the darkness, Diggin' out them graves,ahaa! The moon is fading out, Bobbydazzlers showin' up, Cadavers burning out, Subhumans stroamin' around. Some robbing vagabonds, Regicides in the throne, Snary proposals, And prankin' psychopaths. The kingdom fade away, Plausible lies arise, Credence in subjection, Its time for extinction! Oh! Its time for extinction.

Extinction!
some are wicked heartache, claws, shot in the back some are just a soul translucent, silent, empty sorrow some are kissed eyes shut, candles, relief a poet dies heartache silent empty relief

a poet dies
I tried to write a- But then ran out of room, So- I let my words play.

5 and then 7 and then 5
They tell me "This is life" you've got to thrive   no matter what you face have to survive           no matter what you interlace have to stay alive   so with fake grace I pretended to fit into this hive that they call life even though i've lost all of my drive but If they'd just glance into my eyes they'd realize, i'm not "dope" They'd see my lost hope. They'd see through my lies. They'd see my disguise. and the fact that I no more shine to be revealed on the shrine... is what terrifies every single cell of mine

Disguise
my head feels funny so i thought i'd write a sonnet in an attempt to get sleep tired eyes meet heavy thoughts meet long nights lonely hours breed thoughts of hearts sworn to keep why do these thoughts always come back to you? oh, all the things i would give to forget me swearing to you my love and time too when do promises become cursed debt? maybe i am not the best with my words i have a disposition to sadness does that mean you can cut my heart in thirds? tearing me apart in your cruel madness? though still confused, i'm glad you ****** off though i'm without sleep, i am moving on we were volatile, a **** molotov now i can move peacefully into dawn though lacking you, it is still a new day i would not have it any other way

dear you
I practice Being Peace out here by The Artist Colony on Hood Canal collecting treasures and Bright Dead Things the moon snail nesting in the Flatland  of my palm a Gift from the Sea carried ashore on The Torrents of Spring it may take A Thousand Mornings to attain a Mind of Clear Light to transcend earthly Crime and Punishment to consume knowledge hidden in the Weathered Pages of this Book of Luminous Things but I carry on - Skinny Legs and All Burning Daylight street preaching The Teachings of Don Juan "looking, looking breathlessly" for internal coherence in this Brave New World

Breathlessly Looking
vicious revenge feel its strain. Engrained forever on a decaying brain. For its a plague with no andetote. No cure. Nothings sacred. nothings pure. No honor here to gain but a grasp of guilt, sorrow and pain. A trench deep seated with animosity. Hearts too blinded by hatred to see. Its walls engulfing like vines round a tree. But no vegeance shall set you free. In realising its errors and fate The soul desperately searches to escape. Weary, hollow, it longs to retire But hatred enslaves as its walls grow higher For this is one prison sentence that will never transpire.. If you fight fire with fire.

Revenge
He walks amongst you Smiles at you Yet trusts no one, Not even himself; How can he? As a child, you hide under the covers Safe. But he tosses and turns to the rhythm of gunfire. Dreaded dreams of fallen comrades, Within his mind, he can never be Safe. Waking hours are no comfort Wandering Plagued by demoralizing daylight exposing the death, Witnessed in his wake He numbs his emotions instead of heartache Wandering. I walk among you I try to smile Yet I’m drowning, reliving that nightmare I don’t even trust myself How could I?

Warring Dreams
The pain inside her demanded to be felt Heartbroken as she already was Her body lying like a lump of flesh Trying to find solace But what was she expecting? For she had committed a sin Wanting to break out of the guilt that surrounded her One day she decided, decided her fate Instead of fighting she surrendered to the darkness The darkness took over her Trying to refresh her wounds Betraying someone was what she had done That someone who was her light Light of hope, of love, of life Crestfallen as she already was The darkness found its home Buried itself deep inside her Leaving her all alone....
