"sedating" poems
You managed to horribly fail every test Yet you bore the honorary family crest Until you abandoned me As friendship isn't free Leaving me incapacitated In the infernal infirmary You had only exacerbated My own gory purgatory But I want to see the end of the story Though it's not going well Carrier pigeons bring messages of your progress By ******** on my head I solve the problem By staying in my bed When all I see is red From all the blood we bled There was a deep connection Crossed with a ****** infection You were so fundamentally friendly Was it just for the drugs we were blending? Now I just have nightmares of your life ending And ponder the value of the time we were spending Your spirit animal is a coyote Mine an exploding car My fragile heart is imploding From all the black tar Coming from your lips like the needle Rushing through my veins until I'm fetal From your sedating voice I heard an invading choice Live alone or die alone The dog gnawed the bone with it's clone I just want to hear you're doing fine So I can stop feeling so **** guilty And I don't have to hear about you again For my heart has been untamed When I feel this constant pain From a friendship down the drain There is no peace to be attained For the friendly fire in my brain

Friend
At the age of nine he wanted to die which was something I couldn't understand because I knew our mother loved us. desperation so doctors drill diagnostic decisions down his throat. I pray he won't choke on the shallow pills he has to swallow hollow dreams he has to follow. Sedating's seductive for families who can afford it. The Founding Fathers have forged my future, they've mocked my freedom and cashed in on humans. America likes to revive our problems with the quickest fix, money solves it. My brothers become another lab rat to solidify the fact that these pills are legit. Simply because his name appears on a list. Ignoring the fact his original pain was nothing but a claim against all of this cultural ********

Xanax
Lips pressed gently again soft sweetly scented skin the first flush of spring begging to be taken it the tasting of his kiss teeth slowly grazing untouched flesh teasing the stone with tongue from wetted peach juice warm and sticky drips from eager excited lips in rivulets of pure unsweetened pleasure tongue moves faster as mouth ***** hard drinking deep each droplet inhaling with each intake of breath the waft of summer meadows where lovers lay and shared forbidden fruits from scrumpied trees as here now I taste once more the heady bouquet of love wrapped up in lustful decadence of greed and avarice your pain my pleasure your gift my gain as spittle from my or' excited tongue mixes callously with the spiced perfume of your open petals sedating only my thirst but not my hunger...

Food For Wicked Thoughts. ( sensual )
October 31. Halloween A Celebration celebrated worldwide for children and adults to dress as whatever they desire and are free of judgement... of condemnation. A night where the freaks hidden inside every 'normal' person comes out to play either; commando, or a zombie, a damsel in distress or might i add a naughty little schoolgirl.. An open invitation to ask strangers for candy, a game to see who can collect the most...... Halloween is just a game that is just full of surprises aren't they? Oh! Halloween is a night everyone looks forward too..... the dead included We like games too. We, the ones who linger between realms awaiting trial. waiting to be stationed into our eternal home a pick between; a forever scorching, fire blazing hellhole or forever be glistened by the almighty light. On Halloween night, we the dead are free to wonder back into the world we begged to leave whilst upon the stars the judge laughs upon his throne at us, knowing all to well we despise this place. Mockery is a well known game, played by many, deceived so many. Even mortals shamelessly mock the dead and tease us with life irony is they live for this very night to dress up and be someone/something they desire the most..... the things they so often remind thy selves are; abnormal, freaks, an abomination.. For god so loved the world, he gave his only son, to prove that he can and could give and take life as he pleases We 'freaks' learnt that the hard way.. Every Halloween the Gods are at play and so are the humans, but never us. We the ones the mortals fear And the Gods personal entertainment. These humans wonder off into the parade whilst we linger in the depths of the darkness He told us as punishment we are to watch them parade about us and celebrate the day of the dead, He who looks down upon us cursed us. To have a sirens call- to lure them in, sedating them with sweet nothings, BUT only one rule applied to us all: NO touching the one thing we freaks' all lacked; SOULS That's their sick,game to tease us by gifting us to caress the mortals ever so slightly but nothing more.... 'SADISM' is what we call the game in which Hades and the Gods play; and us being the pawns....... Well not anymore. Not this time No! tonight we will purge on whatever comes our way, Sedating them with the curse of a sirens call....... the one that the mighty gods has gifted us with, Tonight we feast on what the humans are celebrating; DEATH. No more hide and seek games, with the humans No more cat and mouse games with the Judges its our turn to give a good scare! Tonight we play our own game, We call it 'PEEK-A-BOO'! 'cause tonight we'll will give them one HELL of a Spooky night, 'cause we're coming for you!!!!!

My eyes saw her And my heart longed for her And my lips wanted a taste Of her seething venom She was a cup I didn’t want to pass Without having a sip That opened a flesh wound Only she could nurse Because it could never heal And any one I’d **** For her to be mine and mine alone.   On the drags ov the black wine Brood from African matured raw dark vines Bitter sweet and sedating like ecstasy She anesthetized me Leaving me numb To the wound she had inflicted Upon my heart of flesh, When I let my Shield down And left her sizzling arrow Piercing my heart Like a thorn for the holy one Her arrow inoculated a venom That enfeebled my trembling frame As I bled love unafraid of bleeding to death! I looked deeply Into Her dark eyes My vision impaired, High from the venom And partial hemorrhage. I said slowly “What is love? Tell me please…” She smiled and replied… “I can’t tell you, I can only show you Cuz you have prayed. Love is a tourniquet To your heart a wound I can nurse it for you That’s why it hurts If you are wounded By someone without skill Some wounds never heal But fear not For my love is not lethal And leaving you might be fatal, Words can never be love Only actions can be Thoughts are useless If never said  or expressed So don’t be afraid I will nurse your wound Because mine is deeper than yours”

Love, What is? [Tourniquet...]
We sit together on low whipping cream white plastic chairs, opposite over a fake fiber board table covered with cheap and flavorful fair. The aroma of chili, coconut milk, tea, and greasy noodles fills my mouth and nose and above us the deafening pattering and smacking of heavy rain drops landing hard against the Plexiglas roof  fills my vacant ears. The night set's in as cold and comfortable as a fattened fish at the bottom of an icy lake and with the sun fully gone now and the square or street outside empty the Asian owner opens the garage style glass door, its metal tracks holding milky white paper orbs full of light above our heads and he tells us we can smoke a single cigarette in here safe from the cold and biting rain. Your eyes watch thousands of minuscule silver streams flow between the network of cobble stones like tiny rivers raging mercilessly, violently, into the darkened abyss of the storm drain falling hopelessly over its silent brink. But my eyes only watch you with the constant sound of the downpour sedating my sickly mind I watch your slender hand lead up finger tips to the cold white rolling paper watch it settle comfortably between the rosy red of your plump and postured lips they let back out curved and milky clouds reminiscent of the sweet swaying of your hips. I crack a sincere but tired smile, and put the price and tip under my plate. We both stand and stretch and head off slowly, huddled warmly knowing its been a good night and finally i feel happy and i can tell you do too as a smile spreads slowly across your face like a tired cat stretching for a long days rest.

Snuggled in Downey, five-hundred thread county, creating, in brushed cotton flannel she's sewn his panels, he's waiting when down in the subway he sits on a nail and jumping up, empties his cup on the rail the coppers subdue him, and drag him to jail, parading. Stripped to the drawers for a search they discovered the flannel panel when asked of the man who had frozen his can in the English channel he gave them the name of his seamstress and then discovered that inside the panel was penned, a note from the woman who goes by Sangwen de Lemanel: "If you find this it means you have bust loose the seams of your winsulation come back to my shack, I'll be happy to tack without hintsulation of course, if by chance, you'd be wanting some scones while I fix up your pants, you can warm up your bones and I'll double the thickness and strength for your own consolation". Though the note in the pants, at a glance, hardly worth the debating somewhat cryptic in places, suggested the seamstress was dating could it be that this maiden with needle and thread was hiding an inmate who'd recently fled it was suspect, her stitch-work, a cover: abetting and aiding. Intent upon solving the case of the note in the panel Sherlock Dannel rode down to the seamstress and brought her some flannel "I've sewn quilts, without guilt, for the queen, rest her soul, and the king wore my hats, though his head had a hole but the rest of my work will attest to my innocence, Dannel". And Sherlock, so taken with Sangwen, whose voice was sedating missed the gist of her kiss, but the point of this pistol elating "See I'm really quite good with a needle and thread but in cases left traces of blood on the dead when my needles were shed from drawers of the bores who were waiting." The man was immersed, but well versed in the curse of the smitten he saw that this seamstress was shrewd and her verses well written and hiding her needles and notes could avail in busting loose criminals down at the jail and if he had his way, on this day, in the pen she'd be knittin'

Serene like an oceanic horizon Striking like the fiery waves, The essence of a longing affection, that melodious thrill of an adventure my heart craved; Delicate scents and gentle wind, With the soft sunlight on cerulean, grinning, Soothe my mind yet left me anticipating the dramatic secrets you hide; But everything came along with your magical shore Made my belief stronger about this quest I've been wanting to explore; Whatever happens, I want no regrets I don't care if you have a stormy tide awaiting If it's a charming masquerade, it is divinely sedating; But at the end of the day, you still remain an entrancing enigma, Like in the unknown depths of the sea, You are the unacquired jewels, So tempting for the ones, fiercely passionate and distinctly greedy; You make me so happy with mere the knowledge of your existence, Yet it turns back to utter despair, Cause I despise the fact That you are there with all your charismatic abstract, but not mine yet;

An Oceanic Hue
*"Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance." - Sartre* What is easier, life or death? Some people think this is a simple question. And I'm sure for some it is, a straight cut to one side or the other. We know so much about human life and so very little about death. Some would call it an "easy" way out from the constant struggle of existence. But how many of you here on this world wide web are truly embracing your struggle today? Are you following "the plan"? A plan? Birth, growth, assimilation, "education", indoctrination, out of the womb and into the classroom, graduate and start your career, retire and die. Isn't everyone proud. I mean, think of all those soothing, sedating systems put into place to make your life easier to avoid. Much like the screen you stare at now. I've, as they say, "suffered" from depression my entire life, and as one of those chosen people, I'd like to debunk the myth. The loom of death breeds a lust for life like nothing else I've ever encountered. You appreciate every little nuance and at the end of the day you're grateful. Unlike so many "happy" people. But you also know the utter meaninglessness of it all. And it makes it that much harder to swallow when everyone doesn't realize the opportunity they have every single day. Most are complacent, content as cattle, lined up and waiting for slaughter. Until they're looking death in the face and wondering what the **** they've been doing all this time, in this line. But I do not look at those other chosen people who've cut the tie to the physical plane with judgement, pity, or shame. Their bravery shines. Everyone deserves an out, because so often people stay in out of selflessness, out of attachment and obligations, to friends, to families but will you deny them forever? Give them their peace and think of their great example often. All of life is risk, you're always on the cusp, every day could be your last. Death is the final frontier, an adventure unknown, and wanderlust is strong in some.

Somewhere between my subconscious and hypnotized reality I sleepwalk down the memory lanes Amidst the darkness of a lost cause I move in circles searching for something I can't remember Is it the perfection personified or just my memories of you A soul so pure and a heart so warm A beauty so rare and eyes so expressive A touch so caressing and voice so soothing A fragrance so sedating and a presense so completing And in the shimmering lights of your glow I move my tremoring hands just for a touch For a belief I would trade my chance to be with thousand angels That you are real But it was just a shadow I was touching You vanish like the ripples in the mirage of uncertainty And I keep following you in circles till eternity

hypnagogia
What do infants dream of? Do they dream of wombs? Places dark and comfortable and perfect beyond comparison. Sedating heartbeat above regular and comforting like a vascular clock. Always keeping time; always breathing life. Do they dream of mothers ******* Soft pillows of nurturing flesh. The source of life on their planet. Flowing ivory elixir, from soft rose ******* Do they dream of us? Of grotesk giants that pinch cheeks and speak in meaningless howls. Smiling oversized faces that clean the **** that builds below where that sweet tube once provided life. Gnawing white stumps eating indigestible hunks of flesh, or plants. Do they understand love? Can they dream of pure emotion? Without the words and representations of it interfering? I wish to be like this. I wish to be swaddled, to have dreams about nothing, and real. Dreams as pure and amazed as a teary eyed infant.

Infant Dreams
Life, passing and fading, You frown as it moves on by, Life, calm and sedating, Yet your beginning to wonder why, Living, living in a box of your design, Oh, it's quiet and nice, Yes, and you've paid the price, Living in a box of your design, Why can't you see, In this cage of rust, Who can't you be, When your world turns dust, Still, you stay there, Still, you see it, Yet you wonder where, In this life, Passing and fading, You frown as it moves on by, Calm and sedating, Your beginning to wonder why, Walls fall down, When the crows cry, And the king has lost his crown, Then truth begins to die, Now you wonder, In the field of debris, If this were a fateful blunder, Or an act to be set free, Though, amidst loss, Memories alone beside you, Are alone to guide you, Had it been better, Living, living in a box of your design, It was quiet and nice, Yes, and you'd paid the price, Living, living in a box of your design.

My sense of responsibility for you, is weak And though the sun may peak Her bright and shiny head, I am four steps from dead with whiskey in throat striking up a winter laden band. One hand over my eye and another open in the dark. Through the city harbor blind cat ropewalker down to the skylit charmer into wounded arms and gaunt and weary couches I am wilting away. With your breath hot on me sedating my needs like I sedate and taint you- But suffocate, suffocate Disintegrate and fascinate all my childish fantasies of being pressed into the trees pressed into the dirt, Your hips slipped between a little exposed thigh. Pressed and suffocating- under your weighted throb.

since we've broken up i've been loaded up getting drunk & throwing up swollen head all bloated up from doses of the finest drugs but it's never quite high enough to forget your type of tired love it keeps me anchored as i'm flying up as i'm crowd surfing on a cloud's surface my head is drowning in the dirt i'm ground to grains & feeling worthless clay for brains & muddy urges lead to vacant veins & vapor verses a rehearsal for a solemn song sedating the invading fog while praying for the haze to stop

The Ocean's Lullaby
He wore a stripped shirt that resembled the twist of serpants though he smiled warmly his eyes were steady on the dollars placing labels and badges on all the soldiers fighting to pay rent and live in times so far from purpose I kick back and watch him scribble false notice prescribing a pill to every effect from this life its left me purging I hate the institutions the corrupt unjust sick ***** sedating my passions and numbing me up smart went to another place outside your local village where the villians mix the chemical perserves in your children's fillings I cant help the way I percieve what I have seen I cant help that my fall from innocents was rougher and obscene I cant stop thinking of the misuse of power and money mongers I want to burn the kingdom hoping it'd grow back to something better misguided we walk off cliffs and to the slaughter or we come back as our fathers paper back novel excellence for me has fallen to resistence because I simply cant stand this kind of exsistence go ahead and direct me to another perscription corrupt everything in my mind that makes me human I'm ODD to the extreme ! I reject most of you and the latest thing and now this man sits here telling me I'm sick and spiraling as he shakes hands with satan defiling minds from eyes that only see green and I pay my way to see this jackal conspiring?! You can keep your advice your diagnoses and the dice I'll leave you now to gamble with the rest of the villager's lives

My thoughts on Therapy
Old dinosaur man go sniff Spit on three fingers so that I can have a kiss. No, doctorosaurus- this isn't a hit It's been a miss since long ago. Slow; she's waiting on you. Reptilian creature, fixer of blue Imagines my groove to soothe himself. There is no sedating the truth- You want to use this. **** little temptress In a skintight sundress. I'm a hot mess And you want me. Epidermal- under your skin So easily.

Old but Gold
This is not going to go as planned. Talk about unsettling – I am completely without seat. Afraid to talk, or I’ll throw up. And I’m shaking on the inside And clenching the edges of papers In small, isolated seizures And it’s rushing on like a freight train Like a highway spun backwards And I’m standing, alone, Silent And breathing heavy. This is the moment when I fall back on alcohol. When I imagine the soft fluidity of liquid bringing me into collapse Seducing me, sedating me, Tranquilizing my hip-hop-wired nerves. All I want to do is scream, once, at the top of my lungs, Into my pillow? Could imply **** Unsure if whether or not you will put your hands on me your eyes on me, I don’t want that, can’t have that, You haven’t earned that. Don’t even know why you like me Or if I do, if I should, why should I like you When you’re tall and have a low voice And might be depressed, And I’m ****** up, too manic Don’t wanna get into this cest pool And really out of nowhere when you’re just about to bolt You ask me, like it’s nothing, If I’d like to go for a drink. And I ****** well did want to go for a drink Even though I don’t want to go for a ******* drink! Because your hands are big And sweaty Which would ruin everything, And I don’t know anything about you Or me, And I would just be saying the same, old, **** And it wouldn’t be fun, And we’d enter into the same, old, **** Like playing a game of pool And – whoops! – I showed too much cleavage, and hey, don’t you dare try and show me how it’s done, With your hands on my hips, Like that one time at work, Which thrilled me. I’m just a bundle of contradictions. And I don’t think this is right. I’d really like to shut this off like the lights like the zone of electricity, But it’s still there And I bet you’re so calm. And I’m sure I’ll smile, when it happens. And I’m sure it’ll go ******* well. I’m not taking a lick of joy from that, Only anxiety, Sallow, brown anxiety. And great, ******* it, this isn’t going to work Get me out of it Climb out of my skull Onto the pavement Liquor me up, or I’ll never make it through this **** It’s time to go. Man up. Grow some ***** **** me.

And I’m sure I’ll smile, when it happens. And I’m sure it’ll go ******* well. I’m not taking a lick of joy from that, Only anxiety, Sallow, brown anxiety. And great, ******* it, this isn’t going to work Get me out of it Climb out of my skull Onto the pavement Liquor me up, or I’ll never make it through this **** It’s time to go. Man up. Grow some ***** **** me.

I am lost in the loose ended threads which make my life; they weld me down along glistening metal lanes with screws and nuts and bolts once in a while , rather carelessly with a callow scraping grip, perhaps it's a young apprentice inexperienced in dealing with insubordination to fix me in my place. sometimes these threads look like faceless feelings, pre-emptive if you will, sometimes they look like ununderstandings by me or others sometimes they look like despots called people sometimes they look like elevators built around caves of people shedding tears and hides. So yes ,sometimes the metal feels like the deep cold of the sea. powdered with nuts and bolts forgotten in the hazy blue saline, but probing my shaky heart and my remoulding mind like frosty bullets. Overrun with senseless weeds from inside, and grim from ruins of  lost ships and here and there with inviting treasures worthwhile, anew in the cascades of worldliness of all things beautiful. sometimes the metal feels like the lullaby of the sea sedating almost, amidst the wilderness of conflicts ,jarring bronze contradictions and of course, the ever so ubiquitous, soupy shallow free floating worldly wise grime. while other times oy romantics, it feels like a fish net topping me from reaching out to places and peoples and experiences of this world.

********* forth
Her hand slips softly, into mine, Her eyes glimmer, with reminiscence. and this moment is ephemerally divine divinity, drowning in Dissonance. The sky is turning grey, like my love. Her incandescent beauty, as immortal.. ..as the fire that burns within my haranguing heart, fueling perennial passion, that shall slowly fade, like the gut wrenching ire, that obscures my gaze. the trees, reveling in the glory of spring, in full bloom, pushing away the recurring gloom.. the setting sun and its sedating sight, fills my soul with seraphic light.. As the seconds turn to hours, and I shower my love with a thousand flowers, the moon maketh me feel, her luminous presence, and I drown myself, in her ethereal essence.

Her
i am drowning. strangling pressure cups my frightened face, caresses my flailing limbs. its cold clenching hands grasping, pulling, beckoning me, boasting safety and security within its undulating abyss. breath numbing and chilled, it creeps inside me, flooding my body with sedating venom, the hopeful light above fading as my chaosed mind is pinned under crushing power. breath my aching thoughts crave respite, my salty tears mingle unseen in the murky depths. i meekly surrender to its tearing clutches, searching vainly for that glimmering spot of hope, reaching out and finding nothing. breath my eyes snap open. i watch hopelessly, my placid surface frozen, hiding the tumultuous currents beneath. my protection and comfort lie comatose before me, living only through each slow, steady breath fear wraps his hindering fingers around my throat, slips in, his tightening grip seizing my voice, the unspoken words lingering behind silent lips: i love you. rattle.

Your contribution to romantic exchange Is sipping cold coffee Neither satisfying nor stimulating Your unwillingness to invest May be reluctance at best Yet I fail to find the charm in that Poetry doesn’t exist there Passion blew through this town Along with the hope of settling here Building a castle to protect us both With the labor of love But no labor came from you Your womb is empty And I am left to wonder about your heart And where to start Walking from here Guess you were just passing through But I found home in you I would’ve lived in a box outside your door If you could’ve just given a little more I resigned from life as I knew it for awhile Because of a smile A look … Mistook Misunderstanding? I miss … Understanding But there is no reason here I’ve had my last beer with fear Shared my last embrace With that look on your face The one that kept me captive For so long Lost in the lines of a Tod Weidner song Slowly sedating myself awake Curious what it is you didn’t take Pointless to consider when there’s nothing at stake No more plans to make Nothing left of a heart to break Just a tattoo of you Etched into my soul A piercing reminder I will never be whole Again

"Slow down", she said. "We're all just so restless, We can't seem to sit still. Moving too fast... Just to throw it all away." No one seems to think for themselves anymore. Bound ever so tightly to the crowd. Oblivious to the weight that's dragging them down. The best of intentions are rotted away in the end. Lamenting poor decisions, and the way time was spent. We're just fading away. Believing in the mainstream. Fading away... Nothing's what it may seem. How we crush our emotions, until we are numb to the core. Sedating ourselves, always wanting "something more".

Humanity
One, two, three, persist. Spin, spin, spin, retain; Under our spotlight of Exception, A standstill of colors occurred- So vivid, it was almost blinding. Amidst the hollowness Seeped a shadow, Reaching out to every Memory locked away. Familiar Stranger. Tracing lines of comfort, Running down heaven, Dropping weight on unknown territory; An interminable candle is lit. A leap of faith. A thread connected two points- One side smiled, the other feared; Two paths were walked on- Only to become the beauty they call Sunset, Or the terror they call Tremor. Collision, destruction. Fear enveloping, merging into darkness; Silent night screaming, absorbing the emptiness; Finding tranquility in expression And freedom in escapade. The thread is broken. Search for ignition, The stars have only just begun to shine; Search for boundlessness Sedating every boiling point, Aggravating every sparkle, Immortalizing intervals. Transience is defeated.
