Spider with hair down to there.
Hips out to there.spinning tall tales that glisten like
Golden beams.

Fabricator with no recollection ....lost her sense of....long ago. But
Lie to me Darling.

Feel me tugging on your string...... wrap me tightly in your cocoon daily and nitely.
Lie to me. And I will make you swoon.
TBC..
Your gray matter is divine
I like the way you rhyme
You leave it all behind
because all inhibitions do is eat away your time

I don't want life to wane
to a sad state of disdain
so I keep up this game
and wait for you to flood my mind

I create a new me in every moment
while I let the memories of you unwind
I try to find a way to embrace this life
no matter how unkind
I feel full of emptiness and wasteful ways
but around you I try to put up a face
morph my ever shoulder-conscious body
into something I recognize as a valid use of space



I look through your window
Eager to see if my old skin has shed yet
I watch myself change shape
Like a skinwalker, I give up my coat
and steal someone else's
But I can never call it my own
and I can never feel at home
so I drift in the dark
hoping to warm your heart

I try to make my actions align with my words
so I can make myself real
but I never want to translate the things I feel
and every attempt to voice my beliefs
seems like I'm putting on a set of false teeth
I've got the armor but nothing underneath


Worry of judgement consumes me
My brain is ringing like the rails after impact
remembering the first time more vividly than the present
I'm a depressed undercover pessimist
A charlatan and a fabricator
I'm sober in my insanity
comfortable with the my self-aware self-destruction
Eating the leftover proverbs
To give me food for thought

The same questions fill me to the brim
The water's leaking out
The panic's setting in
My cup of water is too full
and I'm choking on the flow
I don't have a clue what to do with curiosity
I never let this feeling leave my lips
I can't explain what it and what it isn't
so I just move my finger tips


Somehow I can keep a conversation with you
and I enjoy you more than I ought to
I observe what I can
Slip into your shoes and point of view
Read into the pursuit of peace
You ameliorate my imagination
Give me faith in humanity
I feel less animosity
I let the mercury in me liquify
So I can produce my own light
Breath in and relieve my heart
from the pressure of years
spent stumbling in the dark


You are not a voice showing me the way out of the fog
but rather a hand covering my ears
so I no longer have to hear the echo of my thoughts
I spend the time tracing lines on your face
checking to see if anything has changed
the way I feel is constantly being re-arranged
defining it is never worth the juice it takes
but the lies I feed myself
empower me in this situation rather than degrade

I try to live in a new skin
around you and your friends
fit into the outline of who I set out to be
but every clone of me is messy
and I can never tell if I have changed yet
or if I will ever kick the habit
of being utterly hiffy and uneasy
burning with rudeness of my anxious impulsions
justifying inaction because of power displacement
but always trying to prove something

I make friends with those unwilling souls
that I thought would change me for the better
Open me to a world of ideas
and liven the lonely light I've been harboring
but you can't force things
and you can't always shake first impressions
I try to comprehend why I stay friends
with people only for their usefulness
Settling for those who think I'm adequate
Always conscious of what it may look like on the outside
rather than enjoying it for what is it


30 seconds is all it took for you to size me up
you read people so easily
it's easy to pass me off as devoid of heightened thought
but I managed to change the current when I finally spoke
Ranting about trees and sustainability
And my desire for invisibility
I was surprised how quickly you were convinced I was worthy
and like most compliments I can't take
I rejected your eagerness all too readily

I loved all your rants about black jesus and justice
about community and shared happiness
over material wealth and vanity
I'd rather listen and remain invisible
but somehow I still want to reach out
and grab a look of approval
but like you said, we don't listen to learn
we listen to reply
so I tried so hard to be so sly
and convince you I was super fly
sayin do or die
but you were too **** high
and I felt like I had fooled you
with a terrible lie

But with your soft skin against mine
I feel sublime
I'm wasting time getting close to you
When I have so much work to do
Reconstructing this mish-mash of metal
This wood with all the wrong angles
That is inside my fleece
That composes me
I've fenced myself in too long
And this restlessness is insatiable
I may be directionless but I'm able

I doubt my love, so my love is equivocal
I feel capable of loving you and everyone I know
even though I am just beginning to love myself
But love is definite
not something you quibble and question
and even though what I feel is far from real

I still want you to tell me everything
about philosophy and hypocrisy
about the ins and outs of what gives life meaning
about the uprising and government desecration
about what it means to have free will
But I may never tell you how I feel
Because I know your turmoil has nothing to do with me
when all my whirlwind nausea is centered towards you


You are a sapiosexual intellectual
the thirst for knowledge is alive with you
that curiosity grip me too
sets my mind on fire
and I dip into the news
you inspire a passion to find a purpose
and always follow through
but I know I cannot live as you do
the care does nothing but wear me down
because this fraction of attraction
Will leave me with nothing but a sound
eileen Oct 2019
yes I am a liar
I'm a lot of things

coming clean
isn't me

I keep my secrets stuffed inside my pockets
can't catch me red-handed

you said you love me
that's nothing

would you lie for me
would you ever hate me

I trust everyone
so they can trust me

don't look behind my mask
I always come back
tomie's inside

my poems are rotten
I'm the poisoned fruit

this is my getaway
Paul Verkouteren Apr 2013
Love in essence is the value of dust beating along the dunes of oblivious desert
I see the shores of neglect beating along the desolate beaches
solitude is crashing through my ever weary soul  
the lively feeling of the ever brilliant sun
pierces my visions of incantations
sounds of voices coming up from the chasm
speaking of the love long lost in the midnight
beating drums of the sinful fabricator haunt me now in my waking hour
only in shame and anguish i shall flee
how queer that one must think about the inner feelings of alienation and self doubt
I feel like I’m in this rapid change of emotion as time goes merrily by
The lucid point of my journey in this ever changing existence is nothing but an illusion for vanity and self hatred
Jay Jimenez Mar 2013
I work a lot
And I write when im off
I sit around and think
that im pretty well off
my mother calls me daily
and my brother is in the navy in cali
my bro works for harley
And im the writer
Every christmas I share one of my trending poems
And this only happens when I come home
my dad he's a fabricator
and he tells me and my brothers
anything can be created
if you just make it
Don't let someone else make it
before you
Lexi lu Feb 2016
Let's talk about today
I was stuck in my dismay
Anxious, trapped and sick
****** with a candlestick
I was a moth to her flame
I'll never trust her again
Victim or perpetrator
You are the fabricator
In the chapel, He's not there
Why is life so unfair
I'm on my bended knee
Why did you pick on me
It hurts and I am scared
Impotent, struck, impaired
I wear my cross and pentagram
For you maybe real or a sham
I guard against your cursed ways
I feel threatened by your gaze
I need to keep myself safe
With my reason and my faith
Now I see you for what you are
I've seen your full repertoire
Joy Ceye May 2017
Do we
Live in a world that we didn't even choose
Utopia, Dysphoria, War Zone?
Or stay
Safe in a place that is nestled within a womb
Placenta, Myopia, Safe Home?
Or should we
Stay in a county with possesions we own
Dictator, Fabricator, Planes drone?
Can't speak
A language that was created by us unknown
Metaphorical, Native, Foul tongue?
Is there
A Universe that we by chance could exist
Uninvited, Alien, Pesty Guest?
Or would
A world of full of boundaries let me find
A Nation, Peace, Permanent home?
Work in progress - have more to say but not here -  about children and immigration. .

Call me a hater
But Trump is a traitor
Who’d like to be a dictator
Or a George Washington
Our nation’s pater
Though we should call him
A thin ice skater, or better yet
A democracy deflator

Call me a hater
Or an avid debater
But Trump is an alienator
Who right from the start
Wanted to keep us apart
And he seems to have succeeded
He’s what his base needed
I have conceded

Call me a hater
More or less, an instigator
Or something much greater
One who tells the truth
Because he has the proof
And without a doubt
Plainly lays it out
In a whisper or shout

Call me a hater
Not a fabricator
Or an exaggerator
Unlike a hell-bent
Kind of President
Who betray his oath
And shows no growth
As a product of both

They run for political offices based on lies.
And foolishly the fools still support them.
Watch your advertisement for candidates?

Some Republicans using this lying Hillary to win the fools that placed the nut in chief in office in ads.
So if she lying Hillary than the nut is the best fabricator to be president.

Dumb, idiotic, foolish, words we hate associated with us in life.
But can be level toward the reddish clown in office.

Or they use this Obamacare in campaigning and failed to comprehend the men/women in Congress scam citizens to keep their best health care in place.

Heck, which is worst Trumpcare, sure he does.
Like a millionaire afraid to lift a hand to help another in need.

Vote according and WE might get good candidates.
And beware of some kinds one might be a woman.
Vote according to some misguided church leader philosophy and you most likely get what you get?

It’s no use wishing on the moon -
beware that nearly untouchable beauty.
She has a dark side and will desert you
when when the fickle twirling earth spins
night into morning.

It’s no good wishing on the stars:
those illusions are a million years gone.
Stars die like us. They own no magic
and will fade as the morning blossoms
upon the night.

Ancients wished on the treasonous sun,
that fabricator of warmth - not compassion.
Although it brings the new day, it can do little else
wishing accomplishes nothing

Some people get baited to comment on things.
And they bite.
Which a famous golfer did when asked a question by a reporter.

His response was "respect the office" which by truth is true.
But it stands presently disgraced by a fool.

But let's turn back the clock not too long ago.
We had one of the best-led presidents in that office before the clown.

Many within the chamber called him a liar.
Questioned, his birthplace.
Where?
Was their respect for the office?
Let alone the man.

On, that stand higher in the eyes of the world.
Then the redheaded fake news fabricator now.
He doesn't respect the office or the power that comes with it.

We taught as children and adapt as adults.
To be respected you must earned it.
It's not simply given.
Cause you're the president.

— The End —
