"oxidised" poems
*there is a tourniquet on his tongue. he is a risqué bloke with alkaloid fingers, they are wearing yellow asylum jackets yet he calls me mad- emoiselle, his, in between the lines he cuts with razorblades and mirrors. i find myself in between legs of a stanza (not standing), pale femurs and inner thighs french-kissing into surpine ampersands where the first word is a proclaimed ugly disease -- perhaps 'love.' and the other, its escapade -- perhaps 'tuberculosis.' but i must be the period: oxidised bones. within the eyes of a stanza (still not standing) abides no fancy lines no avarice for contemplative meanings there is but space and void and i've filled his femur marrows with metaphors to the verge of the patella. he writes poetry for me with a needle and an eight-ball. there is a tourniquet on his tongue and his spine fits my stocking seamlessly.*

the Poet ii
The sun would always come out a little after the mind massacre - follow the monsters- i fancy lying on the hard floor because it is the only place where the train of vertebrates in my spine can set in its rails. i am a void bleeding out oxidised civilisation -holes in my head- in a world where colours are just fabricated memoirs of porcelain filmstrips. i fear that i am becoming anorexic: my brain is splattered onto a tiny plate -emaciated- where i maliciously pick out the soft and pretty bits. My tongue is cancerous, segregating words into Pinks' and greys'. my heart has malformed into an ugly blister -swollen- milking saps of dismal yesterdays. i'm swimming alone in an acid bath of bleach and ice. can't find the light -the light- beneath the glass -the night- of the -decaying- chandelier.

Dont overplay your hand, I'm the type of Aries to Throw caution to the flames. Set a fire And watch it burn Watch as you learn Yearn for the heat of my rage Lust. My love oxidised you to rust. I blush I digress And I rush. If that's not living When 100 I'm giving, Then I'm already lost on forgiving. When through dust I'm sieving, Looking for Hope And for my mind to cope, Truly lost yet never got the scope. Looking through a different lense, Cleanse, forgive and love true friends. Life's what you shape it, And I will find form, Lived in chaos: Thought before the storm. Though now no longer Find myself torn, In life anew I am reborn.

Zodiac - Aries
i know a secret, as small as a lump of cancer and pale as oessin cartilage, insignificant as the number thirty one until the end of december. i know a secret, locked beneath the tongue of the demon inside the piano, - spitting out keys, oxidised, corroded, foul, cut for bone marrows and cheap hotels and umbrage and odium and pathological experimentations. i know a secret, decolourised in the shade of red and no matter how raw you scratch me, it will never bleed out, not even for you. -- they are coming, the surgeons, you say. they are here to anatomise, to dissect, to **** to clean, to find, to **** to dichotomise, to divide, to sever, to **** to **** to stitch, to seperate, to hide, to fix, to **** to make me sick. --- i may as well be sick. ---- i think i may as well gut out your stomach and tie your pretty ileum into a pretty ribbon, to a pretty street lamp, and make you walk in a straight line until you die, to show me how much you love her. silly boy, getting to her heart was an easy as a six point four centimeter incision. ----- i was the faire semblant and you were the toothless protagonist of some drunk playwright's filthy dream, they gave you gloucester eyes. euthanise me, i want your ugly face ------ to be the last ugly face i see.

i think i am sick.
/ there's currently a historic heat-wave happening in england... indistinguishable from, the perfumery akin to the: inside(s) (of) a barkingside 25m pool with a diving tower... part of the higher education of chemists belongs to sniffing around, esp. after having synthesißed esters... one one... chlorine... within the framework of the current english heat-wave? i'm picking up a scent of chlorine... it's a variant of public swimming pools - which utiliße chlorine for minority report advance: on employing hygiene... but in the air? i can sniff it out... it has transpired, translated for me to pick it up... there's chlorine in the air, notably, i'm guessing, from the raised temp., you would know, if you've been to a public swimming pool that uses oxidised water as a chlorine alternative - O subscript 3, the clarity of the air, simultanoeusly begging a comparison with the air inside a 4°C fridge environment... well, there wouldn't be any "conspiracy" surrounding the distinguishable signature of a chanel no. 5 perfume... so... i can tell you a scent of sulphur is sulphur... hence... hell yawned over england, and from its gob, came the scent of chlorine... the second component of identifying hell - sulphur being the first... chlorine? just shy of first, coming in second.

inside a barkingside 25m pool with a diving tower
Terminate with Prejudice, The word came from on high, Synchronise the satellite Above her in the sky. Instruct the drone manoeuvres To glide 10,000 feet And fire the micro missile Through the roof, but be discreet! *A haze of gas like perfume, A sneezing fit or two And every living thing within The building dies on cue. No symptoms are detected, No evidence is found, The toxic gas is oxidised Before the hour comes round.* She lies in all her beauty, Clear alabaster skin, Green eyes stare to infinity No heart, that beats, within. Her searching words offended The holders of the grail, Who reached across the globe To wield their deadly flail. **This Brave, New, evil World With technology to do The bidding of the acolytes Who transgress borders through, Of every creed and every man, Across the planet vast To violate, at will, All human values of the past.** Marshalg Revelations in a Scorching Sauna 26/11/2011

This Brave New World
My thoughts are wilting upon the branches of my reflections, each one a shade different from the other that like shimmers of a sunset linger. I wait for the instance when assumption is oxidised and in heavy nothingness they fall wilted on my mind, they are cushioned beneath so many more. My minds creativity has descended and now rotting in colourful expiration. And for now my thought don't wave, till the next time buds of thought form and reform.

The Autumn Of My Thoughts
It was a day where the sky cried for me and I cried for me too it was a day where I decided to ignore the cuts and bruises I gifted myself as a present and keep walking on the smashed tiles                   I was desensitised to the ache but every slash that broke my skin seemed to give release looking in the mirror, the eyes that blinked back carried no colour the mirror cracked under the sting of my hateful gaze and for some reason my knuckles bleed from this drop …… drop oxidised deep red stains followed me to the timber balcony the wood absorbed every distress from me and the sky the silence on my mind as the rain played with my face was disturbed by wondering of what it would be like on the other side of the world where there was a small barrier between fire and eternal peace

No feeling
Your words cut me like a knife No. Not quite Less like a knife You are not precise You hurl your words at me Fast but no control What is your aim? To hurt To motivate Both Do you even know? Your words slice me like a saw A blade oxidised into rust Blunt Your wound isn’t clean It doesn’t leave a straight red line Or a quick way to heal Like a zip Or a trail of blood To show someone else my way Your words tear my skin An impossible jigsaw An empty space Your words leave a scar Pink Like my favourite colour of lipstick But it is angry It burns It rips open Again
