"disgustingly" poems
I'm the epitome of unattractive The definition of ugly I have a round stomach My legs touch My **** sag My hair is thin and frail My teeth aren't pearly white I'm pale and my eyes are shallow Brown with no depth or color *** is an impossible task When there is so much fat Separating my body from the other *** is an impossible task When I'm only thinking about my body Rather than feeling the passion and heat *** is an impossible task When I won't allow anybody to see me A terribly ugly body resides Underneath the loose jeans And oversized shirts I'm the epitome of unattractive I'm more than just ugly I'm more than just fat I'm morbidly obese I'm disgustingly put together Nobody could want me There is no question Only an answer The answer is no No, I am not wanted No, I am not desired No, I am not beautiful No, I will never be **** I'm the epitome of unattractive

Unattractive
At evening, sitting on this terrace, When the sun from the west, beyond Pisa, beyond the mountains of Carrara Departs, and the world is taken by surprise ... When the tired flower of Florence is in gloom beneath the glowing Brown hills surrounding ... When under the arches of the Ponte Vecchio A green light enters against stream, flush from the west, Against the current of obscure Arno ... Look up, and you see things flying Between the day and the night; Swallows with spools of dark thread sewing the shadows together. A circle swoop, and a quick parabola under the bridge arches Where light pushes through; A sudden turning upon itself of a thing in the air. A dip to the water. And you think: "The swallows are flying so late!" Swallows? Dark air-life looping Yet missing the pure loop ... A twitch, a twitter, an elastic shudder in flight And serrated wings against the sky, Like a glove, a black glove thrown up at the light, And falling back. Never swallows! Bats! The swallows are gone. At a wavering instant the swallows gave way to bats By the Ponte Vecchio ... Changing guard. Bats, and an uneasy creeping in one's scalp As the bats swoop overhead! Flying madly. Pipistrello! Black piper on an infinitesimal pipe. Little lumps that fly in air and have voices indefinite, wildly vindictive; Wings like bits of umbrella. Bats! Creatures that hang themselves up like an old rag, to sleep; And disgustingly upside down. Hanging upside down like rows of disgusting old rags And grinning in their sleep. Bats! Not for me!

Mythical. The artist is an old one, Un-earthly and infinite, Vast as heaven and the void, The limitations of good and evil, I am immune, yet soul crushingly bound to its power, I am a toothpick, Yet I am useful for now, As I plan my escape, Writing an endless map in memo pads and text files, I tell myself it will someday be worth the while. The artist is like you, reader, The artist is ugly, disgustingly so. The artist is beautiful, and puts me to shame. The artist could burn the world with a thought, But couldn’t break its teeth with a diamond, No matter how hard it tried. The artist is fictional, Contextual, Known only to I, Especially as the artist. I bet its laughing at me this second, My feeble attempts to escape a napkin, A tool to further other means. I don’t mind it, In fact, it’s rewarding in a way, The artist lacks definition, But moves with a sway, It is hard to defend. [(Impossible to define)] My role is that of a journal of skin, A memory bank to which it is akin, But my limit is reached, Something has come to a head, I can feel the artist defined… It has taken form, And now, Unfortunately, Dead. Sunburst I wanted to ask it what it was thinking, But I think I know now; Bad things.

A Portrait of the Artist
This bakery sounds like couples cooing at each other from opposite ends of the booth Giggling like no one else sees they're playing footsies under the table And coffee they've let go cold because no one orders hot, black coffee at five pm in this Arizona heat. It sounds like cookies taunting the diabetic who really did come in for the salads And the free wifi, of course. It sounds disgustingly like the same song I've played on repeat for the past three hours Contemplating what I want to write about tonight. But not really contemplating More like wishing that on the walk to this bakery that's stuck on the corner of a straight road I'd thrown you to the ground and punched you in the face For all the wrongs you've done and all the wrongs you're going to do. But your apathy threw me off, and I kept walking in silence. Wishing I could have the beach's sands, the mountain's bending rivers, And that I could run away from here. This bakery sounds like noise, and sometimes noise is tolerable. At least noise is better than apathy.

Avengers Rant
I Hate You, My Love No longer together, in a world of madness; Just sat alone, in my world of sadness. So come with me, on this journey through life; I'll enlighten your eyes and I'll open you mind. Open your mind, Open your mind, Open your mind, to another kind. Something new, old, bluesy or rocking; Musically free, from you becoming damning. Criticisms needed, if your work is wrong; But you’re perfection in a glass, so I wrote you a poem. Softly bang your head and break your neck; Live a life of missed opportunities, but have no regrets. Hold me in your arms, because I've become contagious; Come die with me…nobody can save us. And save us from what? This living Hell? Your perfumed body has begun to smell. No longer the fresh smelling roses from Heaven; You’re disgustingly ***** since you let me in. No longer a ****** do you think they can tell? Your mothers lead you to believe, you’re condemned to Hell. I see through your eyes, as you describe what you see; You've now become a part of me And now I've let you, smoke my **** I've now shown you, all I need. Everyday I'll write you a song; Everyday the words will be wrong. Everyday you'll see that you hate me; Everyday we'll disagree. Everyday I'll want to **** you; Everyday you will **** me. Everyday is a whole new day; And everyday is wrong for me. Everyday I kiss you with passion; Everyday I get satisfaction. Everyday we drift apart; Everyday you break my heart. Everyday I **** myself And everyday I need your help. Everyday you must die with me; Everyday we must both believe. So everyday let's both fall to the ground And everyday the lyrics will crumble down. Ashes to ashes and blunts to blunts; Come die with me ***** you ******* **** I love you dearly, but I hate your guts; You drive me crazy. Completely nuts! I'll love you forever, until I don't; This is my suicide letter, now I have to go. **** it I didn't go through with the plan; Because of you ***** you held my hand And told me that you understand And told me that I'm your only man. Can you not see how much I hate you? Can you not see how much you hate me? Why don't you believe, what I say is true? Why are you here, when I told you to leave? You’re a punk rocking beauty, but completely false. You’re a grunge kissing psychopath, that I completely love. I have to say I hate you, so I don't feel we’re too close; But promise me Angel, you will never go. (C)2005 Aa Harvey. All Rights Reserved.

Stuck. You're stuck. So that must mean I am too. I don't want to be stuck. My love for you grows More and more each day. But I can never stay stuck. Stuck. I was stuck. Long before I met you. I didn't want to be stuck then, And I don't now. Trapped within a Disgustingly thick, slimy stuck I worked my way deep in to find Nothing but more unruly muck. Stuck. I'm only halfway stuck. But you're all the way stuck. I'm not going back in. I'll suffocate again, Lose myself and become The demon that attaches to My weakening soul like The grotesque parasite it is. You can stay stuck all you want But you'll never find me down there While you wallow around in your Muddled conceptions of yourself. Stuck. Yeah, right. But I'll be here At the edge of the muck Waiting to help you out When you get unstuck.

Stuck
You aren’t broken, I am I am flawed I am malfunctioning I am defective, ugly, wrong I am mean, beyond repair Disgustingly bitter, like licking the outside of an orange, Disguised as a tempting delicious throbbing fruit of life. But in reality, I am insufficient, innutritious, A casualty no one wants to carry But I am so afraid that one day you will see This unfixable imperfection that is me And you will leave.

insecurities
Covered in darkness wearing a veil of evil the bride stands before her groom and a group of vile wedding guests waiting to be joined in matrimony.  The heat and hate that filled the air was so thick that they all choked on it.  Lust the biggest **** ever getting married to Greed had everyone baffled and amazed.  Everyone watched with confusion as a union of sin was joined in unholy matrimony. Pride the priest took the left hand of Lust and puts it in the left hand of Greed then he took tthe right hand of Greed and puts it in the right hand of Lust and began the ceremony.  The words that flowed from the mouth of Pride the priest cut through the air like swords cutting through flesh.   "Disgustingly wicked we have come together in the presences of demonic forces to behold the joining of this devil and **** in unholy matrimony.  This band and covenant of marriage was established by evil in darkness.  Lust will you have Greed to be your husband to live together in the covenant of marriage?  Will you obey him, lay with him, and fulfill his ****** desires as long as you both shall live?" With the flames of hell burning in her eyes Lust answers "I will." Pride looked at Greed and said "Greed will you have Lust to be your wife to live together in the covenant of marriage?  Will you supply and adorn her with riches as long as you both shall live?"  with a twinkle in his eyes that sparkle like gold Greed answers "I will." "By the powers invested in evil the groom and bride may kiss" said Pride.  As Greed and Lust's lips touched their wedding guests were as silent as a corpse.  Lust turned her back to the wedding guests and threw a bouquet of Poison Ivy over her head.  Envy stepped in front of Sloth and snatched the bouquet out of the air. "Nice catch Envy" said Sloth with slow slurred speech.  "Thank you Envy and I do believe green is more my color" said Envy.  Lust turned around to see who caught the bouquet.  She wasn't a bit surprised to see Envy holding the Poison Ivy.  "Well Envy I guess you're next to be wedded off" stated Lust. Pride motions for Hatred to release the Owls.  Hatred unlocked the huge cage and released the Owls.  Slow to take flight the great Owls flapped their wings and ascended into the darkness.  "Lets get this party started" yelled Greed.  As the sins partied the night away in the country Darkness the sun came rising in the country Tranquility. "Are you ready to spend all eternity together? " Loyalty asked Love as they stood on their balcony.  "My dear, dear, husband soon to be you already know the answer to the question you ask" said Love.  As Loyalty and Love stood locked in a warming embrace being kissed by the rays of the sun the two share a kiss of their own.

I am terribly sorry that I ran into you. I can see that you are a bit puzzled because you think that you know me. Perhaps we have met a time or two or maybe every holiday last year, but I don’t blame you for forgetting. You see, I have changed…quite a bit and I can tell that you are very confused. It’s not the way you are looking at me or the way that I am looking at you, or the way that you are looking at me looking at you or the way that I am looking at you looking at me. Wait, why are you looking at me? Oh yeah, you are probably wondering whether or not to ask me if I am that sweet little innocent queer barista at the nearby coffee shop down the street or the ****** up **** that your daughter so disgustingly fell in love with during her crazy high school phase. Yeah… that may or may not have been me. You know, you might want to tell your daughter to call me because she left some things at my house and I have been trying to get them back to her for years now. Oh uh…Who am I you ask? It seems that you still aren’t following me. I mean my identity means nothing to you…or at least it shouldn’t, but I will try to enlighten in the best way that I can. You see, my identity has always been the person that you see before you. It’s just that for most of his life, he was trapped under the softly sweet smelling perfumes and make up that tortured him for a good solid 15 years. His identity masked from everyone around him. The man you see before you is indeed the imaginary boyfriend that your daughter claimed to have all those years of middle school because she refused to bring him home for fear that her parents would call her a lesbian. He may or may not also be the **** that you refused to acknowledge every night at dinner on every freaking holiday he was at your house every year during high school; Your daughter’s Lesbian friend that was conjoined to her hip 24/7. Little did you know, I was the boy she wanted to marry, the one and only person she ever felt loved her. He hid in plain sight for several years. Yet you never noticed. That is, until the night you caught us. You see, I am not the Lesbian that converted your daughter. Or even the **** that ruined her life. I am the boy who has always been by her side through everything. The man who promised to forever remain by her side, through whatever life tossed her way. I fell in love with her on the first day of 6th grade and I haven’t stopped loving her since. She will forever be the love of my life and….Wait why are you crying? I have some news that might cheer you up. You know that sweet boy that your daughter has been seeing, who she has refuses to bring to dinner? Yeah…you may or may not be looking at him. Let me introduce myself, I’m Aimes.

Dear ****** parent whose daughter I may or may not have ****** that I just so happen to have run into with my cherry red, 1972, rusted, broken down, Colombian bicycle,
I am terribly sorry that I ran into you. I can see that you are a bit puzzled because you think that you know me.

You reached my heart Much like a worm Crawled through inches Of insecurity and flesh Till you reached that Precious pink sac You stuffed it full with your Disgustingly masculine company Slimy wiles and wriggly larva The size of my thumbs Then once I was Suitably contaminated You pierced it Without a drop of remorse Maggots and sludge Emotions and memories Burst and Spatter across My ******* and neck You made your presence Well known in my Dying and infected carcass

That Can't Be Healthy
In all honesty I am not sure What would form My perfect society If I were to say that everyone Would get along It'd be too cliche Too stupid and mindless Lacking elegance I do believe it'd be nice If everyone got along That isn't my issue It's just that it is unimaginable The very idea that each and every Single loony, ***** ******** person Can get along is so disgustingly absurd That it makes me want to throw up on the person that says "Can't we all just get along?" No! No we can't you idiot We can't get along because that is not how the world works I'm not going to baby you with some philosophical ******** as to why But I'll put it straight We don't have it together Us as humans don't have it together We will never get along Never be in peace Unless we get it together We humans will never get it together It is impossible because failure Is in our nature Does that mean that we should give up? No but perhaps learning that us humans Can't do it alone is something that we can learn The idea of my perfect society Is nonexistent in practical terms It is a mere wish of what any other Good person would want the world to be It is unattainable though without a miracle

My Perfect Society
I am sorry if I'm just a mediocre for not being good enough in everything I am sorry if all I could do is whine crying out like a swine how imperfect the world can be I am sorry if I'm not beautiful if I'm not friendly if I'm messy, stupid, insolent, sensitive, and grumpy I am sorry for being so quiet that it makes the air awkward for being a sickly ******* or when I sometimes talk a lot as if I know everything I'm sorry if I sometimes feel special like a protagonist of some story looking at everyone with scornful eyes for being so disgustingly melodramatic for always making excuses for piling lies on top of lies, on top of lies or for not even trying to make these ****** words rhyme I am sorry for being so hard to like let alone, to love and if I ever made you frown of any of the above or simply of my existence know that I am deeply, truly, and terribly sorry.

To Everyone:
and this I suppose, is the life I'm living; bundled up, walking through the snow with a hundred and two fever. handling money all day, more and more and more money: never enough. taking money from those with too much, giving it in turn to those with disgustingly too much. alienated, dehumanized, I work for those who think of me as a number. 60 hours a week, I sweat and sweat, selling a product I could never afford. alienated and dehumanized; I toil. there is no pride. my eyes: they no longer sparkle. there is no pride, there is no relationship with my product. there is no pride in barely affording rent. there is no pride in not being able to visit the health clinic. there is no pride in being exploited. go ahead, vamanos comradita, speak out against, you know the worst they can do. add a black mark next to your name, call you: radical, dissident, extremist, in a word: othering you are othered because you wish to eat the fruits of your toil. you are othered because you're a human, you're not a number, you're not a spot to be filled when scheduling, you're more than the recipient of corporate pay checks. toil, toil comraditas, there will one day be pride

there is no pride
I sit disgustingly high on my throne Looking down at those who don't share the same pigment A sliver plate was placed in front of me at birth On it had everything i’d ever need Financial stability, a house, clothes Food, parents, education, safety My heart pumps nothing but racism through my veins An artery of cruelty and death I strongly believe that ‘diversity’ equals white genocide More of them means Less attention on me Confederate flags litter my house My car, my clothes A simple reminder of the good ol’ days Kicking them, Kidnapping them, Killing them My life is now Being waited on hand and foot My every move watched My every need taken care of My husband As rich and powerful as he is Through his fragile and egotistical nature Shows no mercy to me and my kids I will never struggle to provide for my family I started my life on the top of the ladder For my skin is my privilege Someone is lying…. If i showed you a mere glimpse of my life And the world’s nearly unbearable Weight on me Would you believe it? I carry a list of illnesses from A to Z A suicidal uncle who no longer shares the same air as me Colour, race, and religion Hold no limitations to my pain The day in ,the day out Cold, Suffering I will not be constricted to the rules set on whites By whites I am defined by my actions I stand before you as I am I am well read and independant Fiery and calm I walk my path with integrity pulling my head high And shoulders back strong I am made from my experiences I am not constrained to my personal history I was taught this social cancer But surely, this can always be forgotten For my skin is my privilege And my privilege is being me

The bride stood before her groom and a group of vile wedding guests covered in darkness wearing a veil of evil waiting to be joined in unholy matrimony.  The heat and hate that filled the air was so thick that they all choked on it.  Lust the biggest **** ever getting married to Greed had every one baffled and amazed.  Everyone watched with confusion as a union of sin was joined in unholy matrimony. Pride the priest took the left hand of Lust and puts it in the left hand of Greed then he took the right hand of Greed and puts it in the right hand of Lust and began the ceremony.  The words that flowed from the mouth of Pride the priest cut through the air like swords cutting through flesh. "Disgustingly wicked we have come together in the presences of demonic forces to behold the joining of this devil and **** in unholy matrimony.  This band and covenant of marriage was established by evil in darkness.  Lust will you have Greed to be your husband to live together in the covenant of marriage?  Will you obey him, lay with him, and fulfill his ****** desires as long as you both shall live?" With the flames of hell burning in her eyes Lust answers "I will." Pride looked at Greed and said "Greed will you have Lust to be your wife to live together in the covenant of marriage?  Will you supply and adorn her with riches as long as you both shall live?" With a twinkle in his eyes that sparkles like gold Greed answers "I will." "By the powers invested in evil the groom and bride may kiss" said Pride. As Greed and Lusts's lips touched their wedding guests were as silent as a corpse.  Lust turned her back to her wedding guests and threw a bouquet of Poison Ivy over her head.  Envy stepped in front of Sloth and snatched the bouquet of Poison Ivy out the air. "Nice catch Envy" said Sloth with slow, slurred, speech. "Thank you Sloth and I do believe green is more my color" said Envy. Lust turned around to see who caught the bouquet.  She wasn't a bit surprised to see Envy holding the bouquet of Poison Ivy. "Well Envy I guess you're next to get married" stated Lust. Pride motions for Hatred to release the Owls.  Hatred unlocked the huge cage and released the Olws.  Slow to take flight the great Owls flapped their wings and ascended into the darkness. "Let's get this party started" yelled Greed. As the sins partied the night away in the country Darkness the sun came rising in the country Tranquility. "Are you ready to spend all eternity together?" Loyalty asked Love as they stood on their balcony. "My dear, dear, husband soon to be you already know the answer to the question you ask" said Love. As Loyalty and Love stood locked in a warming embrace being kissed by the rays of sun the two share a kiss of their own. Written by Keith Edward Baucum

We are rotten now. You are rotten, moldy, putrid with disease. I'll separate my pristine state from you. Get the **** away from me. You are rotten now. You are contagiously, disgustingly rotten. I'll pretend there's still some use in you, Throw you in the compost, forgotten. You are a memory. Overripe, painful, noxious. You were a part of me. Infecting, stinking, rancid. This is my goodbye to you This is the routine compost. This is how I say, "We're through," This is how I let you go.

Rotten (Routine Composting)
Your feeble mind It twists your words up, intertwined You lie like its the truth Your an artist when it comes to being sleuth You complain for a lack of communication But you listen like the deaf And lead like the blind You can't understand You got ****** up in the mind You've got nothing else To defend is all you have Your absolutely empty And its so disgustingly sad Tricks and wicked games Are the battles you choose to play Its as if you woke up Said, **** the world, I win today But today is not your day to win You can **** the world But I've caught new wind Listen up, I'll say it once You can ***** the others But I've found new stance

Mental Attitude
this is a poem about love, not boys, for once, or lesbians – but roomie love. my roommate is my other half, like when we were little and chewed halves of gummy bears to make two-flavored ones with different colored heads and feet. 3:30 am on a Monday night, all of our classes the next day, no homework done – who else will stay up with me to read over each other’s oldest emails, all disgustingly useless, all marked as “sent with high importance” who else will write poetry with me in the looming shadow of Chemistry tests help keep the Spring terms exams and US History APs at bay with jokes that aren’t funny but I laugh at anyways because you are stupid and you think they are – and everybody in the dorm thinks we are insane, but that’s okay with me because we have enough inside jokes to live on for a year and each other

Before I knew that I could fall in love with another boy, I had already had those feelings stolen out from underneath my feet 50 years old cold and old with a lust for blood, and innocence, At 16 years old there wasn’t even a whole lotta innocence left in him, But he worked and moved in places that felt like dark alleyways, and promises that seemed too good to be able to break, The way his tongue slithered out from underneath the church pews, looking to lap up whatever he seemed to have missed from his youth I remember the first time I went to therapy, the way that my therapist kept asking me if I was confused about my sexuality, It shouldn’t have started like that Wrinkly, angry, and full of adrenaline, young in the head and sick in his veins, He liked to touch them, He liked to hold them, His eyes always matching theirs, he made it perfectly clear that he’s not looking for a fight, he’s already fighting, and he knows he’s going to win I’m not a religious person, but I believe the devil comes to all of us in different ways, Sometimes beautiful and forgivable, Other times in a black t shirt and a pair of nikes, disgustingly promising, a place to make you feel comfortable We let so many people use our bodies to prove their points, it’s so exhausting, I can’t tell the difference anymore between wolves and sheep, But I know that he’s a wolf, And I know that no one listens to a boy who cries **** And the blood is always going to be there, The alcoholic breaths taken deep into lungs that promise to carry on, are always going to be there, The hatred and phobia of old men with mustaches and eyes that look just a little too inviting, is always going to be there Your Innocence is always going to be there, just don’t let anyone convince you that they can steal it from you We are more than their torn muscles and “really, I’m a nice guy”s, More than their “I’ve never done this before”s, More than their “You don’t have to mention this to anyone”s, More than what we think we deserve, More than what love used to mean to us We don’t have to love like that anymore, Our bodies are new, Not used anymore, but brand new, We just have to teach our bones how to use the beautiful new skin that they’ve worked hard for So to the man who taught me how to love myself, You are nothing more than a distant memory I’ll continue to pack into the bag of luggage I carry and unload when I need to remind myself that I am more than whatever you made me think I was I forgive you, but only because I forgive myself

Oh my self-loathing is disgustingly indulgent, It destroys my health I wallow with glee for hours in the pits of my own self-hatred Everything I do say and see I use as ammo in an endless war against myself Repulsive, ******** Excentric , erratic Shy, fake, problematic I wish I had a plug hole In the soupy head of mine That I could just pull out And all the darkness would go down the drain and I’d be fine But my fansty world turns on me And casts shadows on others I don’t see them in their true light As my fellow sisters and brothers By day the world grinds in my head An endless mill of screams By night by actions haunt me In rancid vivid dreams This assemblage of stupid attributes that is me Follows this girl around relentlessly Too fixated on yourself, you selfish ***** You hate everyone else and make them a demon or a witch This demon lives inside the gray matter that is your brain It turns any sunny day into melancholic rain I will live alone with no comfort but my own insanity I see those on the streets who do the same and fear that destiny After all, Is madness not a sane response to the collective psychosis that is society?

A big melting slice of self hate
From the fourth floor of my nineteen-story house, I peek out of the tinted windows. These are my only windows to whatever is outside, and they're tinted yellow and black. I am the first person on the moon. I am the first person on the edge of the planet. Will I fall off, or am I bold enough to carry on? That, I think, is what has been bothering me for so long. I do not live in a nineteen-story house and neither am I peeking through yellow-and-black windows. No, these colors do not have any significance either. They are not symbols or metaphors. I have been making everything up as I hammer my fingers onto the keyboard and weave these unfathomable lines of thoughts. I am not the first person on the moon. I am not the first person on the edge of the planet. In fact, there isn't even an edge. I am an insignificant speck of dust. I am not even Horton's Who. I just counted the number of 'I's in the first two paragraphs- fifteen. Fifteen of the same alphabet repeated throughout. That is, despite whatever you might say, a bad start to an essay (if you'd call this one). "Of course not, repetition is an important literary device!", you might say. Horseshit, I say. These words have no intrinsic meaning. These horribly structured sentences are disgustingly unfathomable. That's the second time I've said 'unfathomable'. Third. My 9-year old sister writes better than I do: "Today, I woke up. Today, I ate breakfast. Today, I horsed around with my dog. I am very happy. I am not hungry, because I ate today. Today, I ate." You can understand what she's saying- she woke up, she ate, she's not hungry, and she's happy. But what of me? I woke up, but just so. I ate and so I'm not hungry, but just so. I am happy, and yet I am not. These words that I write mean nothing to me, and yet they mean everything. Being the extreme nihilist that I am, life has no intrinsic meaning, and yet it is more meaningful than a poem that I once wrote about my tenth-grade crush. I've forgotten her name long since. The most absurd of all is that it hasn't been so long- perhaps a year. What is more absurd than the most absurd is that I am yet to turn sixteen; this I will do in a month's time- yet what is most absurd about the more absurd than the most absurd is the incongruity of the facts with reality. I shall not elaborate on this, for it has become nothing less of a meaningless telephone message constructed at the time of a drunken stupor.

Tossing to and fro as if combating a hostile sea/ dark thoughts cloud the inner sanctum of my mind/ the distress, the bitterness, the anguish, the grief, the sadness, the lonliness, the unfathomably lustful pain/ that I face burn with the intensity of the fires of hell that await me/ Guardians of chaos; harvesters of damsels come for me that I drown in their sins/ rip the fabric of my consciousness asunder/ my ***** sing an aria of sorrow, listen to the requiem of the ****** a miasma of death flood my bowels/ decay enters my womb and I plunge deeper into madness/  I'm an error; a fault of life as the demonic servants consume my flesh for what feels like a eternity/ as we desend in to the pit of blasphemy, defilement, pagans, and idol worshippers/ he deprives my spirit of the rightousness, tears it from its mortal bond and it unfurls into a ethereal cloud of emptiness/ being ravaged my capture looks off in the distance as if performing an exhibition/ with every touch I feel dead inside all the while the nightmare watches with a disgustingly grim grin.... This was written for a art history class inspired by "The Nightmare" by Henry Fuseli Tell me what you think of the interpretation!!

The Nightmare
They deal in hatred -often well disguised. Religion impregnated the extremists. Then the fingers really started pointing. No one is left without being chastised. Immigration knocked up national pride. Everyone is waiting; glaring at each other. We are all dogs being cattle prodded with hatred until our leashes snap. What a circus it will be, even more so than now. More so than ever. I am both sad and excited: If it takes so much -a moment of finality, of bloodshed and horror- to make them realise that they really ****** this up with their superstition, flags and greed then I will grin through the whole disgustingly fitting affair.
