"hanged" poems
I hung myself today. Hanged? Whatever, point is I hanged myself today and I'm still hanging. I feel fine. Just bored. I keep hoping that someone will come home and cut me down but then I keep remembering that if i knew someone like that I wouldn't be up here. Bit ironic, right? Or is that not ironic? I read somewhere that, like, anything funny is, in some way, ironic. But I don't know if it's funny or not. I don't think my brain owns "funny," you know? I feel taller. I like that. I've never been away from my shadow for this long. It had always clung to my feet, parting momentarily for a quick dive into the swimming pool. But never for five hours. I like it. There's three feet of space between my two and the floor. I wanted something this morning. I may be stuck. But at least I'm three feet closer to it.

Hanged
the mind is its own beautiful prisoner. Mind looked long at the sticky moon opening in dusk her new wings then decently hanged himself,one afternoon. The last thing he saw was you naked amid unnaked things, your flesh,a succinct wandlike animal, a little strolling with the futile purr of blood;your *** squeaked like a billiard-cue chalking itself,as not to make an error, with twists spontaneously methodical. He suddenly tasted worms windows and roses he laughed,and closed his eyes as a girl closes her left hand upon a mirror.

The Mind Is Its Own Beautiful Prisoner
Ten little soldier boys went out to dine; One choked his little self and then there were nine. Nine little soldier boys sat up very late; One overslept himself and then there were eight. Eight little soldier boys traveling in Devon; One said he’d stay there and then there were seven. Seven little soldier boys chopping up sticks; One chopped himself in halves and then there were six. Six little soldier boys playing with a hive; A bumble bee stung one and then there were five. Five little soldier boys going in for law; One got in chancery and then there were four. Four little soldier boys going out to sea; A red herring swallowed one and then there were three. Three little soldier boys walking in the zoo; A big bear hugged one and then there were two. Two little soldier boys sitting in the sun; One got frizzled up and then there was one. One little soldier boy left all alone; He went and hanged himself and then there was none.

Ten little soldier boys
Evil might creep in different forms Depending on what's going on around ... It might come in the shape Of a hand-gun or In other shapes ... If it is a hand-gun ,then It means satanic and ugly Simply because if it is in a coward's hand , It means there will an inevitable crime and Innocent victims too ... All ugly evil-doers end in jails , hanged ,or In the corners' trash cans ... ___________________________________________________________________

An ugly evil-doer
stranded in the beauty of her throat shunted her preference a short drop in a bulwark twisting knot a hanged ghastly pendent her feet arching desperately in search of a floor they will never find obedient! yet her face a hideous insubordination she dissolves like tropical butter a screaming silence a falling prayer shuddering with downward sloping limbs she blue hemorrhaging eyes wobbled bulging to break into paradise tumbling like a dizzied cyclops as numb lipped jutting howls turn cement always willing to help he scums for her in pulsing heaves of beatific gush

Stranded
i loved to paint using your colour. i’d go day and night, from one canvas to another, using different shades of you to paint all kinds of pictures. i never lost any ideas. i never had to find inspiration. it all just comes to me whenever i look at you. one day, i woke up colour blind. and unfortunately, it’s in your colour. all the paintings, all the sketches, all the canvasses that were of your colour, plastered, hanged, and taped all over my walls doesn’t make sense anymore. it was all grey. all dull. a colour i know existed but never really tried using before. i tried searching for your colours in the things you’ve touched. the words you’ve said. i searched everywhere but whenever i do think your colour will come back, my eyes revert to reality. now you’re just a memory. your colour will only exist inside my mind. those shades i loved. the pigments i crave to achieve every time i stroke my brush. it’s all in my head now. it’s been years now. your colour isn’t as bright as i thought my memory would remind me of. i paint with a different colour now. actually, i paint with all the colours now except yours. all those nights i spent painting, it’s with every colour i come across but yours. now my wall’s full of colour again. all from different parts of me. colours i never knew existed. now, i’m happy. i’m content. i’m colourful.

colour blind
The tavern roof was smokey with a pall of blueish ash. The juke box was a- booming as it played "The Monster Mash". A giant puffed a burning witch whilst smoke rings he exhaled.... While victims of our neighbor, Vlad...on stakes were all impaled. The Faceless Man was grinning... from ear to missing ear. The hanged man turned his twisted neck to sip a mug of beer. The Headless Horseman shouted for an aspirin or three. He popped them down his gullet where his head was meant to be. The zombies waited tables and the werewolf tended bar. Mothra was the carhop and took orders car to car. Godzilla worked the griddle and served burgers ala carte. Dracula complained about the steak caught in his heart. Ghosts and ghouls were dancing with abandon on the stage While cyborgs did "the robot" 'cause they thought it was the rage. The mummy came unraveled as we took him for a "spin" As Frankenstein played tuba to contribute to the din. Igor brought "the monster" and then Freddie brought his claw. Jason brought his butcher knife and his buddy from "The Saw". The guillotine was working and the raven refereed So nevermore would pardons be allowed to intercede. The pendulum was swinging to the beating of my heart. I hoped that I would wake up soon... then did so...with a START! Halloween is coming.  So, I guess I should prepare. Watch out for bars with men from Mars... 'cause BEASTIES party there!

The Tavern of Terror
"So the pen is mightier? who'da'thunk'it." He said to the bleeding man tied down to a messed, stained, bed. The bound man figured, even though he just got to an LA plagued by criminals, killers, and copy-cats, that he wasn't getting out of here whole, finally. Holding a pen knife, red-faced and sweating, was his captor. It had been a struggle to awake and realize who stood before him: Quill. The exact killer he'd been looking for. He had heard about him in the Halo Herald, An LA pun, it's not very popular, but he liked the funny section. "Are you just going to stand there?" The bound man says, eagerly, "Hey bud, you're the hanged man, I'll do the talking." "It's about time!" "huh?" "I'd been waiting. heard you'd be at that open mic. Knew you liked the mealy type." "Shuddup or I'll write you off." Quill runs his pen knife over the bound man's right cheek. "Stings a little. Usually, I start with a rufie and emotional damage. But it looks like you want to cut to the chase. I'm a man of a similar mind. spirit. problem." "Nobody's like me dude." The bound man locks eyes with Quill. "What're your trophies? huh? I read you like to drain your victims, cook'em dry. don't you use their blood and powdered remains as ink? Short stories or something?" "Oh, an avid reader?! it's your lucky day: you get to be part of the collection!" The lamp nearby tumbles to the floor as Quill lunges, ready to **** "Wait! Don't you want to know who I am!" "Not really." "I'm a ser-" The sentence is finished by nothing but the sound of blood and air gurgling into places it was never meant to be as Quill's blade passes through flesh. "Pfft, what, you think you're special?" Quill saunters over to the sink. "I'd hate to waste ink. but there'll be more. there's always more. isn't that right, Celine." he says to no one and stands there with a smirk as if listening to her.

We rode the night like the back of the wind high on incense and adrenaline skating through alleys and street signs The sky lay dark and glittery as if it were covered in cheap jewelry like the earrings that hanged from my lobes that your lips touched when you kissed my neck It was a night to remember with the person you love without one **** to be given except about this moment.

Good night
Cool black night thru redwoods cars parked outside in shade behind the gate, stars dim above the ravine, a fire burning by the side porch and a few tired souls hunched over in black leather jackets. In the huge wooden house, a yellow chandelier at 3 A.M. the blast of loudspeakers hi-fi Rolling Stones Ray Charles Beatles Jumping Joe Jackson and twenty youths dancing to the vibration thru the floor, a little **** in the bathroom, girls in scarlet tights, one muscular smooth skinned man sweating dancing for hours, beer cans bent littering the yard, a hanged man sculpture dangling from a high creek branch, children sleeping softly in their bedroom bunks. And 4 police cars parked outside the painted gate, red lights revolving in the leaves. December 1965

First Party At Ken Kesey's With Hell's Angels
Smile, a simple curve in your face That sets everything into place It's a gesture in your lips That makes me forget how to sleep Smiling will cost you nothing But for me it means everything It always happen in just a flash Yet the memory stored in me will last With a glimpse of that sweet smirk And this whole world of mine change With a glance of your sparkling smile I can say that this life is a brand new game Why would I bother gazing up in the sky If the shiniest star is in front of my eye It would be a waste of time diving looking for a pearl It's an obvious fact, with your smile nothing can be compare Your smile is like a contagious virus Affecting my heart, and mind and make me smile too damaging my brain cells and can't do a thing hanged, frozen, just looking straight to you It's amazing how it can make me vulnerable Your smile is very lovable I'll do anything to make that smile last for eternity Because it defines the name "diane" for me

Men my brothers who after us live, have your hearts against us not hardened. For—if of poor us you take pity, God of you sooner will show mercy. You see us here, attached. As for the flesh we too well have fed, long since it's been devoured or has rotted. And we the bones are becoming ash and dust. Of our pain let nobody laugh, but pray God would us all absolve. If you my brothers I call, do not scoff at us in disdain, though killed we were by justice. Yet þþ you know all men are not of good sound sense. Plead our behalf since we are dead naked with the Son of Mary the ****** that His grace be not for us dried up preserving us from hell's fulminations. We're dead after all. Let no soul revile us, but pray God would us all absolve. Rain has washed us, laundered us, and the sun has dried us black. Worse—ravens plucked our eyes hollow and picked our beards and brows. Never ever have we sat down, but this way, and that way, at the wind's good pleasure ceaselessly we swing 'n swivel, more nibbled at than sewing thimbles. Therefore, think not of joining our guild, but pray God would us all absolve. Prince Jesus, who over all has lordship, care that hell not gain of us dominion. With it we have no business, fast or loose. People, here be no mocking, but pray God would us all absolve.

The Psychopath's Atonement
Said the Prince unto his raven-haired Lady as he rode and galloped away, He leaned back and this is what he had to say: “Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return.” Jack O’Lantern prowls and haunts the frosted hills hunting to ****** for fresh meat. This monster, this dark beast creeps down from upon the heath! Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. “Where be the Lord of this warm and happy house?” says Jack O’Lantern with claws tapping. “Gone to London town,” says the Nurse the coins from Jack receiving. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. “Where be the lovely Lady of this house?” smiles Jack O’Lantern mouth full of jagged teeth. “She’s in her red chamber,” says the Nurse asking for a treat. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. “Where be the delightful baby of the house?” says Jack O’Lantern purring like a cat. “Asleep in the cradle,” says the Nurse accepting Jack’s gold sack. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. “We will pinch him, we will ***** him, we will stab him with a long pin! Nurse, you will hold the basin for the blood all to run in.” Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. So they pinched him and they pricked him, then they stabbed him with a very sharp pin. The false Nurse did hold the basin for the blood all to run in. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. “Lady, come down the stairs, come drink this tasty gin,” says Jack O’Lantern dripping sin. “How can I see thee in the dark?” says the Lady unto him. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. “I have silver bracelets and rings fashioned out of gold,” says Jack O’Lantern bowing. “Lady, pray sail down the stairs and come see them glowing.” Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. Down the stairs the radiant Lady gently glided without alarm, thinking there to be no harm. Black-eyed Jack stood ready to snap her in his arms. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. There is blood in the kitchen and blood on the chamber floor, there is blood also in the hall. There is blood upon the open door and blood upon the wall. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. There is slippery blood in the parlour and bedroom too where the Lady did slip and fall. Now Jack will be caught and hanged and punished in hell’s hall. Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! Be concerned! Lock and bolt the door until I return. And the false Nurse will be broken and burnt in the fire raging scarlet and black. Said the Prince unto his Lady dead as he rode back: “Beware the moor, beware the fog, beware the nightly shadow of Jack O’Lantern! O why did you unlock the door? My heart will now forever twist and turn!”

And try to light em underneath an ocean's worth of crude oil       That is forcing it's way into my lungs             My high hopes hung their heads in the past as they waited to be hanged                But now the concept of life felt empty and displayed itself as a delay         A casual lack of oxygen shut off all process in the brain                  And we are on our way. ~spark~                                                               in the depths               And the darkness fades to grey,            A less ambivalent shade.

I Pour Gasoline on Matches
I could hold it in a breath, bury it inside my chest, watch the cilia react, a current sent with each contact; alas, I cannot keep it in considering the broken skin; with crimson ink, this razorblade’s a fountain pen, I scrawl away: “Hear me now, in sight of God, first all is still, then comes the flood.” The little blackbird hushed her song— she could sense something was wrong— pitchforked lightning bent the trees and fireworks consumed the leaves where my better angels hanged— this, the Province of the ****** If you were kept inside my chest, you’d have slipped out with the rest, while the vultures had their fill picking piece by piece until I’m left bone-bleached in the sun— all the others turned to run; but you were steadfast through it all, from the spire to the fall. The willow whispers from outside where my history resides, ghosts of angels hide beneath the wilted branches of that tree— I still catch glimpses of the scythe from the corner of my eye, but morning’s come, I cannot sleep here in the shadow of the Reaper.

Why, Judas why? Your kissed became the treachery symbol Sold your faith but hanged yourself and die After you returned that thirty pieces of silver Why, Judas why? Might you have a big crisis for money? A sick parent or child, perhaps To cure their pain, but ‘twas cut in the story You returned the dazzling silver Might they’ve never fulfilled their promise To never hurt your master That’s why you weep unto your best Why, Judas why If the tree and the rope could talk, they’ll never lie Might you’ve kissed the image of your master in the wind Before you bid the world goodbye 10-26-2015 Mysterious Aries

Judas Iscariot Mystery
X's and O's. I feel like its all a show. Even from the start, as you depart, kissing the essence of the globe. For all we know. X's and O's. Bring pleasure to your genitals. Be gentle hoes. I am making a mental picture of the old. Days when. X's and O's. Publicly got you hanged. Referring to the X as kissing and the O as hugging on the **** and why the mind insane? Because there's more to that strange then what meets the brain. Don't get corrupted look away. It is some strange day now can you say that, we will all meet this lustful fate. Contemplate to the date that I see my son or girl grow in ways, then hit the world publicly they make the appearance of grace and being. But then Xs and Os take wing. Their battles will rattle as I see myself on a mantle of crust. Made from earth. Lord Almighty made me from dirt. Did it hurt? Did it spew blood like at birth- And then the rebirth of the unberthed berthed reunion to the dirt . I am dead.

Systems Locked Upon a Cloud of Elephants
They tell me to stick to my roots because roots lead up to shoots. They tell me to stick to my origin unaware of how it acts as a prison, My roots are Draupadi's hair that was twisted and lugged, my roots are Panchali's saree that was tugged. My roots are Sita's wrist Ravana wrested, my roots are where Ahalya's chastity rested. My roots are parasites that eat up its own herb and **** my roots are rat snakes that eat up its own tissue and meat. My roots are flames of fire that created and watered the plant of Sati, my roots are pools of blood and long ropes that drowned and hanged LaxmiBai and Moolmati. My roots are the dish misogyny flavoured with patriarchy, my roots are naked streams of Ganga washing off their lynching and anarchy. My roots are all the poison Shiva drank during the churning of the sea, my roots are Dhritrashtra's aspirations and ambiguity. My roots are its own herbivore, my roots are the lava that burns its own floor. And my roots are my flesh and bone, so I am stitched to my roots altogether, all alone. So as I cut my own roots, my roots chop me, hence I stick to my roots while my roots remain free.

1 Awake ye muses nine, sing me a strain divine, Unwind the solemn twine, and tie my Valentine! Oh the Earth was made for lovers, for damsel, and hopeless swain, For sighing, and gentle whispering, and unity made of twain. All things do go a courting, in earth, or sea, or air, God hath made nothing single but thee in His world so fair! The bride, and then the bridegroom, the two, and then the one, Adam, and Eve, his consort, the moon, and then the sun; The life doth prove the precept, who obey shall happy be, Who will not serve the sovereign, be hanged on fatal tree. The high do seek the lowly, the great do seek the small, None cannot find who seeketh, on this terrestrial ball; The bee doth court the flower, the flower his suit receives, And they make merry wedding, whose guests are hundred leaves; The wind doth woo the branches, the branches they are won, And the father fond demandeth the maiden for his son. The storm doth walk the seashore humming a mournful tune, The wave with eye so pensive, looketh to see the moon, Their spirits meet together, they make their solemn vows, No more he singeth mournful, her sadness she doth lose. The worm doth woo the mortal, death claims a living bride, Night unto day is married, morn unto eventide; Earth is a merry damsel, and heaven a knight so true, And Earth is quite coquettish, and beseemeth in vain to sue. Now to the application, to the reading of the roll, To bringing thee to justice, and marshalling thy soul: Thou art a human solo, a being cold, and lone, Wilt have no kind companion, thou reap’st what thou hast sown. Hast never silent hours, and minutes all too long, And a deal of sad reflection, and wailing instead of song? There’s Sarah, and Eliza, and Emeline so fair, And Harriet, and Susan, and she with curling hair! Thine eyes are sadly blinded, but yet thou mayest see Six true, and comely maidens sitting upon the tree; Approach that tree with caution, then up it boldly climb, And seize the one thou lovest, nor care for space, or time! Then bear her to the greenwood, and build for her a bower, And give her what she asketh, jewel, or bird, or flower— And bring the fife, and trumpet, and beat upon the drum— And bid the world Goodmorrow, and go to glory home!

Awake ye muses nine, sing me a strain divine
1 Awake ye muses nine, sing me a strain divine, Unwind the solemn twine, and tie my Valentine! Oh the Earth was made for lovers, for damsel, and hopeless swain, For sighing, and gentle whispering, and unity made of twain. All things do go a courting, in earth, or sea, or air, God hath made nothing single but thee in His world so fair! The bride, and then the bridegroom, the two, and then the one, Adam, and Eve, his consort, the moon, and then the sun; The life doth prove the precept, who obey shall happy be, Who will not serve the sovereign, be hanged on fatal tree. The high do seek the lowly, the great do seek the small, None cannot find who seeketh, on this terrestrial ball; The bee doth court the flower, the flower his suit receives, And they make merry wedding, whose guests are hundred leaves; The wind doth woo the branches, the branches they are won, And the father fond demandeth the maiden for his son. The storm doth walk the seashore humming a mournful tune, The wave with eye so pensive, looketh to see the moon, Their spirits meet together, they make their solemn vows, No more he singeth mournful, her sadness she doth lose. The worm doth woo the mortal, death claims a living bride, Night unto day is married, morn unto eventide; Earth is a merry damsel, and heaven a knight so true, And Earth is quite coquettish, and beseemeth in vain to sue.

Salem Witch Trials
you promised we would meet each other one day. we would go crab fishing and drink some wine, looking at the sunset a little bit drunk on the sandy beach. smelling the salty air. it was just empty words. meant everything to me, and nothing for you. I am just a bunch of flowers you got tired of watering. hanged me on your wall, my flower soul dried like a desert. dead from all the promises you made. beautiful but forgotten. and it was so simple for you to just buy a new bunch of flowers.

a dried flower
Though I splish Though I splash *** I drink so fear my wrath Behold my mate Behold my captain Cutlasses ring and we are laughing Pity me not Pity the foe Sink him to the godless unknown Plunder the hold Plunder her chest Strife we be so do not rest Sink the English Sink the Spanish We rule here so we **** them Free we are Free we be A lavish life is the one for me If I am hanged If I am dead Fear not mate I swam to land Cut your foes Cut their friends We rule this kingdom In the Queen Anne's Revenge!
