To idolise and fantasise
of whence Deities wonder.
And aperpo of nothing
Else, the engaging prospect
dwells; a condensing cloud,
It begs to ignite.

Melodic philosophy after all
bequeaths such license and
rather, idealises lofty ideals;
Relevant. Real. At times,
ridiculous; but written nonetheless.

Inception sacked lame defences
(nature's law-bound birth)
Of solace and comfort,
In accepting such uncertainty.

Schlock festers now, page
bound by binds which
Tie and plunder. Rich

is he whose flacid
Resistance entertains this coup.

Still - Who will notice?
A poem about death.

Fresh and familiar. Without a glance,
The oily crimson smears.
Investigation festers, fragments. You are not
Alone. Wise echoes crow. But,

what do they know.
Of blots which twist and tear.
Previously unbeknownst terrors they rear,
What a mess.

Mere sight repulses and sickens,
Inside no clot can keep or
Confide. In those who cheep and grasp;
Gaggles assure - assanine.

Out ****** spot! I banish thee!
Cleansing with unholy water; tainted rose.
I ought reach this point eventually
And yet.

Cherchez la femme, alas
To seek is feeble,
unbecoming to attest.
When this weak ends,
let me lie.
A poem about weakness.
James R May 2018
A letcherous leer adorns my face and basks, in that sweetest moment of torment.
Though merely collected syllables, they scythe and sneer. Silent, they dwell;
But they will rear their
grotesque complexities.
Once more.

And Dust stagnant chaos debris lay surface on below whilst circles frenzied.

Repeats.

"What." how? "But!" These jagged prongs should scar; not now but not labouring.
I hope u forget the ink which pierces flesh and contorts within. Or you may
feed, comfort, adore.
The firey filament splutters. A staunch, relentless approach to the shore. Will
you see?
A poem about sadism.
James R May 2018
They stain the walls.
Three black spots relentless
against the white backdrop.
I follow just one. Another dwells,
lingers - as its allie drops from view.
It weaves an invisible labrynth: purposeless.

At face, a simple enough fix.
A swift, unflinching hand
to brush away the blemish.
Yet, legs abstain. Want no part
of what is sure to come.
After all, They might well crawl away.
A poem inspired by flies.
James R May 2018
Did that fabled ruby fall with such ease?
It rolls toward me - knowingly -
with grave purpose clear.
A glance Heaven-ward offers hope; reassurance even; that they all end up
this way.

Meanwhile, moored folk flock to go:
This way, out, private politicians plotting their escape. Looking so natural. Practised and prim. It is why the eventual carving blade shall be so smooth and swift?

I take it just as they had then. But,
Rather than soil or stain,
Aching flesh simply crumbles in my Palm.
The Grave always beckons it. I already listen for the next branch struggling to avoid it's inevitible yield.
I urge it on.
A poem about fatalism.
