Berzerk poems on Hello Poetry

Dan Stevens Nov 2013

I feel like I'm walking on a cloud
Nothing else matters, I keep silent and move on
Day dreams and vivid visions
Suddenly disappear from forthcoming decisions
And with a crack reality instantly snaps back
I make up my mind
Saying to myself am I half blind
Then I disappear again
Off in my own head
Thinking about what should have been said
I realize it's not a debt
So I allow myself to forget

I feel like I'm walking across hot coals
That those that get ahead do so by trampling over souls
Contempt for those who got there without putting in the work
The question drives me berzerk
Social implications keep mounting my frustrations
I don't follow the pack and foster my own creations
Completely alone
I feel like a king upon a thrown that isn't his own
Without a care I stop and stare
Only to realize that there's nothing there

Oh
Sorry
It was just another dream

My Masterpiece

These walls are paper thin
And I'm the kid trying to draw on them
But I keep tearing them down
So embarrased that I decided to skip town
******* my crayons in a grocery bag
On a stick thrown over my back
I left when my mother was at work
I figured when she came home she went berzerk
But I was long gone and three blocks older
Never even looked over my shoulder
Humming anthems for my tortured ambition
Five years old and no restrictions
Until the winter came and I was exposed
Naked metaphorically from head to toe
Written off by God and left for dead
I started questioning the type of life I led
So I returned to my home with my tail tucked in
But it was abandoned long ago when the snow rolled in
I sat and looked around and saw the walls were still intact
Pulled my crayons out of the bag, most were old and cracked
I started purposely pushing as hard as I could
Turning scribbles into holes in everything I understood
Soon enough that place was shredded, tatters carried away by the breeze
And I looked upon my masterpiece

The Truth About Life

At 2 AM when the lights are out,
what do you find yourself with?
That text from an old lover you had
that you keep reading and reading
and wishing for things to go back
or the shouts from the walls across
of uselessness and incompetence
that they call irreconcilable differences
which usually marks the end of love,
or the cries of from a boy’s dream
of monsters in the closet and fat F’s
and the bullies the shove him in lockers
or could it be the endless arguments
your mind and heart make at dawn
because you’re heart is giving up
but your mind, such wonderful swirls
is holding on… hoping… coping
There are a lot of reasons to drown
Sadness, debt, heartache, loneliness
a lot of reasons to pull that trigger
jump off that roof and stop the beating
This world is mercilessly cruel but
it is also beautiful, there is no other
and I’m proud to say I am a survivor
but not for cancer or calamities
or serial killers who go berzerk
and shoots everybody in sight
I survived life, the most horrible thing
but also the most wonderful there is

Them

Them
People stuck inside my head,
won't be gone til I'm dead.
Telling me what to do,
they told me to **** you.
Telling me what to say,
there is no any other way.
They tell me how to feel,
I'm a hamster in a spinning wheel.
They tell me what to touch,
sometimes it's a bit to much.
They tell me how to live,
for that I can't forgive.
They make me do unlawful things,
I'm an angel with no wings.
They say, I'm doing gods work.
it's getting fun, going berzerk.
They say my wings, put me in heaven,
all my kills equal seven.
They told me, I need ten,
it's just a matter of when.
They say, I'm about ready,
my last **** must be messy.
Them voices lied to me,
my soul never was set free.
After death, I was sent to hell,
it's where I landed, when I fell.
Now that those people are long gone,
guessing this is where I really belong.

B

Bow legged ******* boaters bombard a busking Baltic with berzerk bands of bonafide belligerence. Bravely he bolsters a border of boulders. "Begone brigands, before I bust your bulkheads!" Feeling browbeaten and bullied the ******* beat for a buffet. The Baltic beaming with brashness boasts of his burdensome backbone.

Caffeinate

Caffeinate
Try not to hate
Only create
once-Devastated
And now mediated
Sealed and fated
Better off
Getting off
The lights down low
See nice and slow
But she said no
So on we go
The daily grind
Chewing up my mind
12 hr days
But getting paid
No sleep in sight
I put up a fight
Stretched to the limit
Now you swimmin in it
Tapped line straight to Feds
Closin in and now I'm seein red
closing in, and yeah
They closing in
Mind alert
Goin berzerk
Hurry up it'll be too late
Go ahead and Fill up my plate
Over flow
The lights down low
They'll never know
Down we go

You in too deep
Too late for sleep and so we
Caffeinate.. And yeah we caffeinate
