"brokened" poems
My pieces slip out of the hole in my head
And they float away always just out of grasp
The silence is pulsing; my words are now dead.
The soul leaked outward though my blood was not shed
And seeped through the ground, a melted moaning rasp
My pieces slip out of the hole in my head
Since I had not mine, he was the life I led
Until the spears he spoke brokened the heart’s clasp
The silence is pulsing; my words are now dead.
Crumbling lexicon, babbling gibb’rish instead--
Dizzy fall. His glass eyes were widen and gasp
My pieces slip out of the hole in my head
I run, spilling remnants where, as I (were) tread
Haltingly, I faultingly sputter-stutt-spasp
The silence is pulsing; my words are now dead.
I fall and watch him watch, the glass without dread
Once was the soul-spears-scalp-glass-and-ev’ry-asp--
My pieces slip out of the hole in my head
The silence is pulsing; my words are now dead.

I woke up Tuesday morning
to the raindrops on the pane
it smells like spring is coming
but then all the clouds pretend
that hiding sunshine from the world
is a funny game to play
But Im not laughing, Im just getting
through the day
It seems a bit sophomoric
If I lit a match inside
there might be a hazard
to the structure of the walls
I hesitate a moment
and I ponder if its right
My conscience bleeding, Im just waiting
for the night.
First day mysteries
failing sunlight
swing the floodgate
doors wide open
and these hours
drown beneath tides
we will find these
clocks all brokened
now, now now...
...this is the moment I get over you

my
heart
brokened
and
shakened
when
hit
by
the
crossbow of love

Bing Bada Boom,
Legion of Doom.
Hear the World Engine
go 'Vroom Vroom.'
Adam and Eve,
Bride and Groom.
Heavenly Couple
sent down to Earth.
Their wicked *** children
and their twisted *** greed,
wrecked the Earthly Garden
and paid their warnings no heed.
When the day is done
and the fun is over,
the playground is empty and
the children must go home.
Moms and Pops,
They ain't gonna hold back.
We finna get an *** whoopin'.
Its been a long time coming.
All of humanity, get yo *** in line;
CEOs first, emplyees last.
You do the crime,
you do the time.
Dem are de rules
and you brokened them all.
You've run out of time
and there's no way to stall.
Did you forget?
We gotta go back.
The same One who sent us here
will call us all back.
Get your affairs in order
before the conductor comes a-collecting.
Your ticket was punched
the moment you drew your first breath.
Check your itinerary -
duration and detours,
none of them matter.
This trip is one way,
there is no going back.
The destination is final
so be not in denial.
Prepare your defense
and argue your case,
for the Judgement is final
and there shall be no retrial.
