Its a taste
Foreign to my tongue
I see clouds you don't
You feel rain
And I fight wars
As I fight against
Still your skin is the land
And your eyes are oceans
I don't want to stand
I don't want to swim
The pendulous nature that my hands know
I can only stare
My fingers
The way I feel
Its something impossible
So go away
And maybe I can heal
Don't go away
I need you dearly
The only seed I sow
That has to grow
The happy end
Its not a name
It is the dirt
Bury me now
I love you
I love you
I will die
If that makes you happy

We live on different worlds
Skies aren't to my eyes
Oceans aren't to my heart
My soul
Cannot shift this reality
My feet will never know your ground
Your steps lead you away

What is is real
Is transiency
Hope is hurt
Heart is mind
Love will become
What we make it be
Transgenciancy

Now up is down

I know too much
I know a name
I cannot say

Lame
is giving a ****
What anybody else thinks

Truth is truth
Nobody is ready for truth

Sick
Sad
Pathetic
Little world
And the fear of the unknown
A disease is growing
Proliferating in populations
And syncophantic minds
Sick
Sad
Pathetic
Little world
And a cancer that cant be cured
Cell by cell and whole body
It eats insatiably
Until nothing is left
Sick
      Sad
           Pathetic
       l i t t l e
World
               Truth
                        You don't want to hear
Our world is a diseased
And we are the cause

Still
don't worry

Death is coming soon

The disease we create
Dies when we do

This is the desert
Jackals and vultures with hungry eyes
Are watching
Setting their sight upon your skin
They want you to die
They feed on the promise of your demise
And salivate
At the dryness of your mouth
This is the desert
Endless miles of sand and angry sun
Attacking
As all you feel is heat with no relief
They want you to die
Your body parched falling back to scorched earth
And forsaken hope
A soul dying of thirst

Build a well
Don't let the scavengers have a chance
To taste your meat
Don't die
Strung out from dehydration
As simple lips are licked by evil tongues
Longing claws
And crushing jaws
Build a well
And you will find water
The lord has granted
Rehoboth

There is wind inside my mind
I want to love you
I'm going to love you
But right now
Gale forces are escalating
These waves are hungry
And swallowing me whole

I'm a fear
I am a sailor
I'm at the bottom of the ocean

There is pain inside my heart
You know I love you
My blood loves you
My hope
But my mind
I'll survive these brutal squalls
These bashing waves
These hateful storms

But I don't know how

Still
I'm sure I will

Believe in me
Even when I don't want you to
When I can't believe in myself
Be my island
Be my shore
My solid ground
My shelter

Give me reason to believe
When I can't believe in anything
Be my sunshine
To **** grey skies

Be
What I need
And one day I'll be
Your everytning

Let it die
And let it swallow me with it
No escape, I dig with spades
I scrape my knees on asphalt
And live in empty streets
In my mind
I have a fist-fight with Auden
And as he's bleeding he's making money
A mockery of my divine art
He's in the textbook
And I am dying
In my eyes
The sun has lost all meaning
No true light, but neon signs
****** who walk the block
Glamour dolls bedecked with rouge
Make-up to cover scars
We call beautiful
Despite ourselves

You live inside a box
And I can repeat words
Mad Mad Mad
paper can't survive the flood
An old man
Man man man
man
Deny the works
And suffer worms
You were taught to love dirt
Become slaves
Embrace the hurt
I shine a light of truth
And I would die for my cause
I sacrifice myself
To save you
But you know only to save the pain
I die in vain
A martyrs death
I give it all until nothings left
And nothings right
There is no way I can prove
This is too good for you
I am not your friend, I am a poet. On of few.... the king

I am almost sure the readers will not be smart enough for this poem, just like everything else
