"misbehaved" poems
She’s so cute I wanna eat her face, like I’m high on bath salts, she’s vegan, but takes my tongue like a cannibal, eat your hearts out Haters, cut my ear off and send it to her like Van Gogh, ear off a part of the big picture, or rather painting we’re painting she gets the first stroke, we’re wild like animals untamable all in all the time, into the deep end head first Geronimo cannonball, Black Swan dive she’s gone alive, the Pied Piper the Eyed Viper the venom & the antidote, and I quote a quote I wrote myself, “She’s the answer to my prayers”, the reason and the hope, she’s the answer to my prayers, and I don’t even pray, okay actually on the low I do pray, and I’ve seen a lot of amazing things but I’m still amazed, I’m amazed, and tomorrow isn’t promised today, and tomorrow never comes, but she comes and when she does she comes in waves, I’m in a daze, honey glazed and lovely crazed, my bed’s a mess haven’t made it in days, bed’s a mess but when we’re together we’ve got it made, so perfectly misbehaved it’s insane, lost myself then found my self all up in her maze, and usually I’m not religious, but she’s so delicious I must say, thank you Lord or God Amen to her I give all thanks & praise, and she’s so cute I wanna eat her face, like I’m high on bath salts, she’s vegan, but takes my tongue like a cannibal… ∆ Aaron LA Lux ∆ Venice, California; 2018

There are always tells with an abuse survivor.   My friend had a dog once that she adopted from a rescue shelter. We do not know the home she came from before, all we know is that she hates being left alone in a room with men, she whimpers at loud noises, and sudden movements send her into hiding, even now. The first time you labelled yourself as an abuse survivor, You felt like a sham.   There was no tell for you, It'd never been hell for you to relate all the terrible things that boy had done, You forgave him.   You preached your sins like a success story, as if you mother had raised you with the right combination of strength and self-understanding to be immune to the world's poison, you were sugar and spice and everything nice with just enough chemical X to make girls wanna be like you. The second time you called yourself abuse survivor,   you realized just how unbroken you were. You smiled and laughed and loved without hesitation. Broken glasses don't send you into a pit of despair, you don't flinch when you hear his name. You don't even miss him. So who do you think you are? You, the one who started the fights, you were the one who left him. And everyone knows abusers don't have hearts to break.   The boy doesn't smile anymore.   So you stopped calling yourself survivor. Corrected others as they told the stories of grander, demanded everyone admit the demonic part you had to play, you monster, you beast, you manipulative liar. You are no survivor. A twisted sister with no bruises or scars, who stopped saying no and pushed back doesn't sound like a sob story to me, a strong enough spine to walk no matter how long it took doesn't sound like recovery to me, a girl looking for an audience's attention doesn't sound like a grown woman to me. You are nothing but a misbehaved dog, so let them call you ***** Roll over and beg for the forgiveness you do not deserve. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry The first time the new one called you survivor, You were lying on the bathroom floor shouting apologies from beneath a veil of hair. He picked you up and wiped the tears from you eyes. Told you, it’s okay.   It wasn't. But it will be.

Love makes us selfish Love makes us brave Love makes us reckless Wild and misbehaved Love makes us kind Love makes us good Love makes us see The world as it should Love makes us thoughtless Love makes us blind To anything else But the one on our minds Love makes us careful Love makes us scared About things which we wouldn't Have previously cared Love makes us malleable Love makes us weak Love makes us sacrifice Whatever it seeks Love makes us dangerous Love makes us strong Love makes us realize What is right and wrong Love makes us answer The knock on the door Love makes our lives Worth living for

Love Makes Us
Two poems got away last night when I was dozing bolted out the door before I knew it laughing like fools Stole my last two beers and they were gone “Ya see, officer, They didn't have their names yet so they don't know themselves at all or to answer if I call They misbehaved and Never learned there's rules out there I'm a lousy poet parent, yeah, I know I shoulda been tougher on 'em Half their words 'er scattered twisted, misspelled, unreadable, inept with rhythms all askew 'n weighted wrong They will surely fall over their own lines and into big shit-trouble ***** little scribbles! sorta clumsy like their mother" Meanwhile, the grammar cop is thinking, “They do not pay me enough for this! I'm looking for children of the village idiot and a ***** "...Across the yard and down the alley They must've run Hopin' they didn't figure out the stick on the Toyota I'll never see 'em again Pretty sure they got my keys" The cop is nodding, bored, polite but I notice He's written all this down

Missing: Two Poems, Big Reward
mark of cain in my hemoglobin, i'm more open to repast on brains. to dine on flesh enmeshed in baseball parks and homes restrained by greed of the same. and the cry of the people takes great pains to refine the message of a blank stare. a blemish, stark with catacombs disarranged in harm honey. the ogre of pine. the amber pane where we bleed. we name nameless, by the by, to the finish. but not alone. up your petticoat with my blind cleaver. my Occam razor to your stain. a fine mess express in hateful art and boneless jade we feed on the frame of our reference. skylarking harmonious curves dismayed by their own mind. they confess it. at the statefair. replenished, they knish in falderal disengaged from honesty. the poker blind. where the eye staid. where we need. we need most ... tell ya why..... to diminish but not atone. and so it goes. i erode the continent. sneaky pete in the crease of all strange. itchy feet. maimed in false lies of the ripple. made fake to real love. unclaimed. a gangly part of broken promises made we retreat at last. with our last mimes. we undress. with savoir faire. distinguished in our dashery ill fated. calamity's bark. hard to define. where the mind misbehaved. we're complete most where the hole resides... to imprison but not hold.

I'll be the only ******* zombie, slaying zombies !
In the dining room, on the wall were pictures of times past- Of aunts and uncles, and some curios- memories, that will, forever last- One item hung in silence- a product of those olden days- Called into service- when respect for others-often went astray I remember what my father said when I asked what 'that' was for- and a slight grin crossed his face- "Ahh, yes, I recall it, that's for sure!" "That's a leather strop", he said - "to hone a razor, when we shaved- It was also a "learning tool"- when we, as kids, misbehaved." My dad was from the "old school" when "respect" was being taught Not by others, but by our parents else our purpose.......... "Went for naught!" richard riddle: 11.10.2015

My Grandparents House
I want to wait, come and join me here until it becomes so LATE like a last moon of light in cloudy weather never burning bright and disappears: never comes to its premier shield.   Don’t be wandering Wondering Or in Misbehaved shape. I want to be LATE till ...an event... destroys all fences play the role of barriers between us. Then love bursts in spring reaction of a sudden blossom and tears, non-stop flowing on the land of juvenile since it is LATE.   we dance On the spring rush of glancing love, Gazing permanently under the shadow of your silvery eyes, where No one has remained except you and us! . .   To be a last singer, to be a last dancer… in the scene of eternal love wait...wait... to be LATE!

To Be Late...
1. There once was a couple of cats Who engaged in continuous spats.           The result was a tie           When each scratched out an eye – An old-Biblical *** for a tat! The cats awoke bleeding and weak And half-seeing the havoc they'd wreaked           They discarded their clothes,           Their backsides to expose – A new-Biblical turning of cheek! 2. There once was a man, oh so brave, Who would sleep in a hole, called a grave ...           Well, he being the host           To so many a ghost, He arranged a big bash, called a rave 3. In days of Neanderthal knaves When the men ruled like kings in their caves           And not being too keen           About keeping them clean ... Often took on some wives, called them slaves 4. There once was a man with a stave Overseeing a holy enclave ...           Well, maintaining a grin           While absolving the sin, He assessed wicked tales and forgave 5. There once was a monk with a wave Who desired a head with a shave ...           Well, the barber was such           That she cut back too much Thereby leaving his globus concave 6. There once was a man in the nave, Although pious he could not behave ...           But they paid him no mind,           ’Cause his name was maligned, Being simply a sinner to save 7. There once was a man quite depraved A voluptuous life was thus craved ...           Well, continuous sin           Ended doing him in – On his tombstone they carved ‘Misbehaved’ 8. Antoine is a Vampire Ghoul, Quite barbaric, bloodthirsty and cruel,           With a fang in your throat           He’ll **** slowly and gloat With a smile as you whimper and mewl. 9. There once was a raven haired Shrink Who had orange Juice Tequilas to drink.           Well her scarlet souled Beau           ****** her tinted red Toe And she paled when he tickled her Pink. 10. There once was a travelling sage Who yet lived to a very old age.           Well, becoming quite senile,           With problems (yes, ****** He packed his wee trunk in a rage. 11. There once was a Nun and a Druid Exchanging some ****** fluid,           When along strode the Father           Who heard all the bother, Lost stickum while coming  unglu..ed.

He called me his little good girl: it was less of a compliment, more a command that if I did not follow every order, he would tell on us. I had to walk with his limp so he would not derail my secrets, make my boyfriend mad. It only worked because I was acting like a bad, bad girl with someone old enough to be my dad. I remembered he could put a gun down my throat if I misbehaved or wore a skirt too long or too short, too pink or too black or if I seemed too happy or too sad – good girls have no emotions, just let men take their breath away. I panted under my sheets and I came to the thought once, soon after, this man, he made me bleed.

My blood boils It runs through me Like fire My heart is on the highway Driving at full speed Driving away from the sirens The chaos Yet it follows me My veins pop out They put on a show They dance And throw knives at the crowd Everything is too loud All my life I've felt this way All my life i ran and hid away I always listened to the **** you would say Be brave Follow the rules Be perfect Be quiet I stuck to your diet For life Perfect little girl In a not so perfect little world I was modest and meek I took every beating Every week I was betrayed Mocked Ridiculed Violated Abandoned Forgotten And disrespected Yet i stayed Quiet Yet i apologized And never Misbehaved Every little infraction Noticed by you Yet you said it was god who cared God who has shamed me For being different For dying my hair For standing up for myself But he doesn't shame you For being a terrible parent Or person Or liar My therapist says I'm too angry But who wouldn't be? If you were me? Wouldn't you want the world on fire If you were me? Dealing with **** Abandonment Everyone crawling all over you Seeping into your bones Doing whatever they want While i cry alone While i waste my life away And sacrifice myself to Your hypocritical throne Will my anger ever cease? Will i ever find peace? Will anyone ever stop disrespecting me? Will anyone ever show they care? Will god ever prove he's really there? Will my loved ones stop dying young? Will the world stop killing with such deep evil passion? Can i ever make up for the missed life i lost? Will i learn to be my own boss ? To never apologize for my existence To feel like i belong To know I'm not wrong To stand up for me To become what i want to be To know i deserve better To burn every violent letter Will i ever find peace? Ever let my blood calm? Ever feel the truth from psalms? Only if the words in this poem Become My truth My religion If everything I asked for If everything i can be Happens Maybe Just maybe I won't burn you all down Maybe

They gathered together that night Around the table beneath the moonlight Five witches of the highest order Plotting the demise of the sisters of light With couldrens burning and potions making The witches cackled and screamed For tonight they will pay The good sisters we slay and darkness shall be queen Bluebells bent and swayed in the Light which they bathed Of the good sisters of the day Whom life meant right was right And there was no night Only sunshine forever they prayed As the wind gathered it's pace They knew the witches misbehaved So a spell of good love Was made in a rush to turn all the hatred away When the two coverns did meet Spells fell at the feet of witches and angels alike And when the light and the dark Clashed in a screaming of barks The dust settled and then It seemed neither could win And light wouldn't sin And darkness couldn't feel light So they both went away Promised to stay At opposite ends of the day So that's why we have day and night

I'll Be The Only ******* Zombie, Slaying Zombies !
These agitated periods of sleep-speech were mercifully brief. And when they ended she would subside for a time, sweating and panting as if, Into a state of dreamless exhaustion Then abruptly she would awake Convinced in her disoriented state, There was an intruder in her head. There was no intruder. The intruder was absence A negative space in the darkness All was lost to her, like paradise. Like Kashmir In a time before memory. Trapped in this city She had lashed out in despair. In such a city there can be no grey areas Or so it seemed. Things were what they were And nothing else. Unambiguous, Lacking the subtleties of drizzle, shade, and chill. Under the scrutiny of such a sun There is no place she can hide. No mysteries here, or depths; Only surfaces and lies Yet to learn the city was to discover illusion. This banal clarity was nothing more then, nothing. The city was all treachery, and deception, all the same A quick change, quicksand metropolis. Hiding its true nature from those staring at its name. Pretending to be content Guarded in secret In spite of all its apparent nakedness and bleakness. In such a place, even the forces of destruction no longer needed the shelter of the dark. She burned out of the morning’s brightness, dazzling the eye and stabbed me with sharp and fatal light Loveless, and blind Born in the midst of the firestorm of courage. Twisted and ruined. The lands of possibility misbehaved. A dishonest nursery The blueness rich with sorrow, which filled the evening sky That made the world look childlike and pure. Such an unnatural disguise.

Our relationship has always been bumpy, harboring nothing more than hatred and discontent towards one another. A part of me held hope that things would get better between you and I, between mother and son, but the words you said that day... "That's your problem - always asking why. You need to stop asking questions all the time, and just do what your told." In that moment I knew that all hope was lost, for your son is a wonderer and will never stop wondering. Until you understand that, I guess you'll always consider me a misbehaved brat.

Mom
I remember the pain and remember the tears that evil man caused me for all those years I remember the hurt I remember his hands as he whispered  and I followed demands I closed my eyes  as I fought away tears I laid still and kept quiet for all those years He loves me, I know it, this couldn't be bad He took full advantage  of the trust I had I kept all our secrets, I had no choice He'd ripped open my chest and stolen my voice I was reminded again after every assault that what happened was conpletely my fault I had been bad, had misbehaved from the wrath of my mother I was being saved He tried to tell me she was evil and mean  But the real devil,  I had already seen His lies never fooled me, with mom I was safe She was my only hope and my only escape

Secrets
***** dreams from magazines, Filthy ***** and no other rules, A generation who are out of luck, But we don't care, no we don't give a **** Concentrating on identity, Make-up bags and vanity, Liquor bottles on the floor, But we'll do it again because we want more. Drug scares, alcohol, red lights, fancy cars, Money, what's that for? We are living a lie, We are living a lie. Cigarettes, twenty in a pack, Jack Daniels cooling in a glass, Bad behaviour, that's how we do, Give us a warning, we'll be laughing at you. Late night movies, Triple X, Red lipstick smudges on the neck, Fifty pound notes scattered on the floor, But we won't pick them up because we don't want them no more. ASBO's, misbehaved, Cop cars, underaged, Manners, what are they? We're the bad teens in town, We're the bad teens in town.

Bad Teens
All my life I've been told How to act and how to think What to do and who to be "Don't use those words" "Don't stay out late" "You should have fun! Just not that way" "Keep your grades up" "Keep your laugh down" "But whoever told you you should frown?" I've always been good I did as I was told I never misbehaved But now I'm growing old My youth is passing by me And how have I spent it? Obedient - I'm seeing it Never the miscreant But always the misfit "Don't talk back" "Don't disagree" Can't you see your words are hurting me? "Honey, I always wanted the best for you" *Then why don't you let my real self shine on through?* Never had any friends and you ask me why? How am I supposed to blend when you never even let me try? But that doesn't matter it's not what I want What I want is out there and you keep me locked up But it all ends now though you still ask how - how did this happen? Why did I change? Well now I'm here to tell you I broke out from my cage All these Obligations Frustrations Condemnations Aggravations Your fixations and my deprivations They're done now cause can't you see? From this day on I'm doing me.

Obligations
By: David W. Clare The head master teacher preaches to us hen house school Kid chickens... We must be brave, we are scolded if misbehaved... The chicken lady teacher pecks away, makes us lay our eggs and do more homework... The class clown jokes around doesn't care about his scores! History teaches us vicariously what brave roosters did before us kids were hatched... Like eggs that are matched we must learn to fly from the nest even tho we can't Let's chant and pray that our farm school house will let us not stray away...

Betrayed, O to be betrayed, A once betrothed and now misbehaved. Misdeemed and misdeeds creeping upon me, Fighting for friends now uncertainly, Walking own a bent path, Finding less and less are on task, More would rather hang out back, And what's a man to do in a world like that? What started as a fellowship, Now ends in dismemberment, And the lonely feeling sinks in, And the friends become foes, at the turn of a pen. Setting my up for failure, Jealous, or unsure, I wish I cared anymore, But that time has long since gone ashore... And so as I look into the sea, Something as dark, desolate, and as desperate as me. I add a few more salty tears to its salty depths, In hopes that this feeling of apathy will be ceased. But I think a part of me knows, Long before any more blows, That this is the Real World, And there is little time now for woe.

O, To Be Betrayed
I had a dream about a mask It was terrifying. The mask, I mean I don't remember much about the dream. The masked man ran around, Tearing through town, Taking vengeance on those that had cut him down Everyone knew he wouldn't Couldn't Maim another Because though through his mask He became another He was still a person Just a person with his soul scared silent His spirit sealed shut His mask's mouth was sewn up Like a doll that had misbehaved, Said, "I love you" "You're my best friend" Without having its string pulled to say it The man, Or rather the mask, Was chasing a group of kids Who had threatened a girl That was very dear to him. He pinned them down but couldn't speak, So he bit off his own lips Suddenly his speech wasn't deformed And his vendetta didn't matter anymore He threw himself to the floor and He wept He wept tears of unfathomable joy. Then I woke up Knowing as I gasped for air That the dream had passed. But when I reached up to my face, I could still feel that mask. So I started, Layer by layer, To peel it back.

A Song for Escape
You're a real ******* Did you know? That you don't own me, head to toe.. I'm sorry that I'm not perfect But you have misbehaved.. And I think it's your attitude that needs to change Go ahead and take the worlds problems out on me You'll never see That you can't treat your family like this.. Excuse me for not wanting to reminisce The "I love you's" and the "I'm sorry's" we will always miss But I realize now more than ever, it was always my fault for making you like this...

Needs to change
In the hour of chaos we belong; chaotic good people right? Misbehaved Spectrum disorder transitioning during breath and sigh, as we fight too evil. Burning, over turning squad cars in fat-tail distributions, retribution on lawful evil, ordered and repressed love at tender protest mass.

Steel Black
I'm like your little teddy bear, you dragged me around whenever I was needed. Now I'm not, I'm hidden from your sight. When something wasn't right you held me, cried and told the tales. I'm like the pet dog you had for a while we would walk and run, mile after mile, when done, you'd talk about a girl of somewhere I don't know. Now you're on vacation. I feel like the lice that needed your hair and then you shaved. Or more like the used tissue when you watched a movie about charlie. I'm like the old and rusty bike after the cyclist bought a harley. Or the surfboard and the flagpole and the kitten you saved. I could think I misbehaved or craved too much attention. Sightless pozzo, I'm your lucky. How unfortunate my fear is greater. I'd listen all the time and open up, tell a rhyme and fill a cup with sublime wines from another country. I used to be quiet, did not feel the need to share, now I'm bursting with emotions, places where my mind can rest, should have been with you, somewhere in a cosy nest. This lousy world with lousy people, lousy conversations, lousy remarks and lousy relations, stop this pain, end it now, or save my life and renew a vow of dedication.
