#monstrous
O' since it hath been beforehand with our griefs, Let us pay the time but needful woe. This England never did and never shall But when it first did help to wound itself. Lie at the proud foot of a conqueror. Now these her princes are come home again, And we shall shock them. Come the three corners of the world in arms; If England to itself do rest but true, Nought shall make us rue. Like you were before, Slaves ye shall be again. You shall pay forever in restless labor. The country will be nothing but a vassalage, You who stood on the cliff line side-to-side As our ships sailed by. Now it is you who are beneath us. Wait for your gentry men & ladies to return, We shall be upon them as a tempest. And our allies will strengthen & back us. If you simply lay down & submit, Nothing like us shall bring you ruin. They took your royalty And told you they killed him. Then they killed more of your children. It's a different kind of life, A more cruel death.

Arthur & Adelin
You're a gorgon, You turn people to stone. You set your gaze on people I love, Just to spite me. You turn them into monsters, I can't believe I knew.

Scrapbook Poem #38
This is some creation creators best? Eh, I'm not impressed I'd hate to see the attempts that failed the test Must have been monstrous Hopefully not but most likely numerous And the couple that was decided on turned out to be a complete mess Brought on solely by his hubris Pointless details distract from what comes next Switching focus from the main quest To put damages to rest Staring directly into the dumpster fires conquest, I notice, Life as we know it will burn out like the rest And we've learned nothing from a history that literally leaves no reason to guess ©2024

~•§•~ Not Impressed ~•§•~
In the daily quarrel When words fall upon ****** and deaf ears Repetition is agitating Boiling beneath the flesh Festering like a toxin of lingering potency Snaking its way into the corners of the mind Push it down, cast it away Do not allow the flames to become you Gripping tightly Perhaps too much so As it snaps beneath the pressure Only a fraction made visible The rest to be silenced Only audible for one mind Screaming and thrashing Just beneath the surface Stain the paper Clutch the fragments Dispose of the now useless thing Punishment surely to ensue For breaking things isn’t the answer they like Purse your lips Bite your tongue Until it bleeds Clench your fists Knuckles white Ding your nails into your palms Walk away Hold the chaos at bay Pull the chain For fighting would only be in vain Causing nothing put pain None, of which, for the enemy Seething in a soundless cage Is the inextinguishable rage Fed in every passing day Relentless, and you know what they say; There is no rest for the wicked Push me far enough And I will not hold back Break me enough And I will become the monster you made me Uncaged, unleashed My tongue dripping acidic poison My eyes visions of flames My arms stained with well-worn lies My hands red with “discipline” My feet tired from running My hair wild and untamed as a storm cloud My clothes holding me tighter than a withheld breath My will stronger than the iron fist wielded upon me Let me go Let me walk away Before I let it all go The raging fire I hold at bay. - Jay M April 6th, 2021

Monsters
I’m waiting patiently to wake up a living nightmare where I’m always stuck, this thing called life that I have no desire for, there’s a million exits but only one opened door. So I raised my happinesses tolerance now referred to only in the past tense. Two sides and two faces; who decides which is best? I just don’t know which one I recognize less. My only saviour has been running late but I promised that I would always wait. She says I’m acting too stupid when she knows that I’m smart, it’s these little contradictions that rip all apart. I’m trying on all shades of purple and white, I’ve gotten bored of only blue and red each night. Why say so long when we can just say goodbye, all that’s right is wrong and we feed truth a lie, that’s the similarities and differences of you and I.

monstrous
From a monstrous storm A monster is born With monstrous horns In a monstrous form The genesis Of my nemesis Who venom spits Left me with A hefty myth Of demonic gifts Through which to sift In that dark abyss I found I missed A beautiful kiss To unclench my fist I give monsters a wide berth As wide as the Earth To avoid all the hurt Of being buried in dirt Once I learn my worth To them is the worst Through the monstrous night It takes a monster to fight Against this monstrous plight When the monsters have might Don’t tell me I’m fine Or tomorrow’s a new day Just say never mind And send me on my way Into the world of grey Through which I wade My inevitable metamorphosis Put me on negative courses swift Now I can’t abort this So my phone cordless Provides a rather short list So when I try to import bliss I receive misery’s scorched kiss In the form of crippling loneliness I see the end of times From severed ties And clever crimes In my never mind I forever climb While I’m left behind In this monstrous land I become a monstrous man Because of the monstrous sand Falling from this monster’s hand

Monstrous
Crashed last night, When tried flying high. Was dreaming of skies, When stuck in lies. Getting lost within, In the echo of noise, of the monstrous mind. Sometimes ruling over, sometimes surrendering to the battles within, A warrior just trying to survive.

the city is beautiful until it corrodes. the city is beautiful until you are trapped. _send me home_,whispers your heart beneath a grey blanket,_but the city is where love and genius live,we can't leave,we can't go send for home_,it yells,and now it is tearing you apart it is picking through the sinews of your warmth it is shredding you out you push it peels you stop,it peels, the book of chaos sits next to you should you open it now?where does wisdom lie? is it in your palms,or beyond that,somewhere hidden, unfolded? you don't know because the city is still beautiful to you. you don't know because you never open that book. (but your heart peels on.)

You cannot create a monster and then condemn it hate its ugly features it’s terrible gait You cannot be afraid to look into it’s cold eyes touch it’s rough skin or feel it’s hot breath You must face the consequences Because when I look into the mirror I do not see myself but all of what you’ve made me I see pale skin and bruised lips and bloodied knuckles and a demonish grin I see a monster ready to do monstrous things.”

#*It Comes uninvited The stress Holds one in its embrace No It has no grace Listening skills it has poor To let go It hears not ,no more The victim breathes faint To fend it off at the slightest One may ask Mercy Its a Herculean task It comes uninvited The monstrous stress*#

Situational
Made, Made, Made, We are made into what we are. We are made Into monsters, Into dreamers;           Believers. We make ourselves; Make each other. We make our kingdoms and our own personal Hells. We are the queens of our realms           And the kings and princes We are the villains The rabble-rousers The Revolutionaries. We are the killers         Of our enemies         Of our own         Of the land. We are made into what we are And oftentimes, It is not our fault.

We Were Made Into Monsters
Outside the wind is howling death A screaming gale of endless breath Over the hill she comes and goes What she is, but few may know Inside her she is not so mean As her outside makes her seem Her soul is quite a peaceful one Heard by few and friends of none Inside I sleep in gentle peace With dreams of gold that never cease What I am, but few may know For I only give what I want to show Inside I am a screaming gale A howling death of rain and hail My soul is wrought with pain and fear That none will know and few will hear

The Monstrous & the Gentle
the craftsman bought his piece of clay to life but ye mold was one that would bring much strife the clay just didn't behave in the appropriate way always it acted like a grotesque monstrous play on discovering the clay's fault ridden side the creator flung it down hard on a curbside never again did he use that model of mold as its unsound traits weren't ones he'd behold

Clay's Mold
Sequel to my poem A Mourner's tale Her days turned darkness, as evil taunted her soul Shattered she stood as the night fought her Harrowing it was when time stood still Fearful it were when he held her down as he took away her reason to smile again In a journey of ten minutes he took away her dreams alongside her innocence There was no morning too bright to elude this darkest plight There was no one to hold her again No reason to smile No light too bright And then I say *It was blinding how the sun pierced into her damaged soul And when night came, she could not feel, She could not see* *It was shattering It was shattering how pieces of her couldn't be mended again And how these pieces spread beyond her life It was shocking* **It was shocking how her own mind questioned her existence And how she lived through life, existing, but not living It was monstrous** *It was monstrous how men could damage a flower so pure and beautiful And how they go on damaging more flowers, Crushing them and eluding them all of their innocence It was blackening*

War
The likes of you I can't describe, Yet I love to eat between your thighs. The melody you spake to me Unfolds my greatest sovereignty. I crave to quaff all of your spit, And swallow every drop of it. Don't cheat me of your tasty flesh, Those bare and supple ****** ******* Your eyes that follow my firm gaze, While we kiss and lick and misbehave. I need to feel each piece of skin, Smashing girl and boy parts over and over again. It's such a treat to eat you whole; I'm obsessed with eating 19-year-olds.
