#muzzle
You weaponised me,
made me the bullet
from the barrel of your
mouth..
For when ever you shot off,
I was the muzzle flash..
And any one you took aim at.
was always left
blooded
by your random shots...
My knuckles still hurt..

I might be Poe reincarnate....
Who knows we share similar traits:
Impossible to muzzle
For us poems are puzzles
To be solved by
the reader's resolve
I could go on for days
telling you how we're the same
but only time will tell if the history books will, like his, remember my name.

Depression is going outside
and seeing the sun shining brightly
but still only feeling rain.
Depression is standing in a room
with bullets flying in every direction
and being without a shield.
Depression is wearing a muzzle
blocking you from thinking you're
good enough to speak and ask for help.

I sat down to a puzzle
When my dog came for a nuzzle
And I gave a small scratch behind the ears
I moved on to the telly
And he lay down on my belly
And we both fell fast asleep after two beers
It seems while I was dreaming
That I heard somebody screaming
It was just an advert on tv
The dog got down real quickly
I thought he might be sickly
It turns out that he only had to ***
I went back to watch footy
And then some "sweep and sooty"
Then the wife came in and asked me where's the dog
I said he's out the back dear
All is fine, no need to fret dear
"Then why is he there chewing on a frog?"
I said I knew no reason
I didn't know frogs were in season
And I went outside to go wash out his mouth
He didn't like the feeling
In fact he was reaching for the ceiling
And that is just the time that things went south
He chose right then to *****
It came up just like a comet
The beer, a bone, and two thirds of a frog
I knew that he felt better
My dumb old Irish setter
This is just a day of living with a dog
