Best Brakes Poems

In many times in my life I always looked for exits.
Could only get so far and I get pulled over in the intersections.
I called them the Hate PD.
Some of them I use to call my allies but I was to blind to see. 
They come...

That is Some Hydraulic Brakes

One day at a food shop,
I met a man selling cakes,
For money he wanted to swap,
But I really wanted some hydraulic brakes.

"Got any hydraulic brakes?" asked I.
"For that's how I'll spend my money."
"No hydraulic brakes here!" said the guy.
He seemed to...

No Brakes At Forty

No Brakes at forty, I got to stop. It starts to rain
and I'm on the freeway. I see a car that got too 
close, but I can't stop. I push the brake, but it don't
work.

I start to panic, what can I do?...

I often talk about the biggest scare, that I have ever had,
Thinking back I have to say, I acted bloody mad,
And it didn’t get much better when I tried to rectify,
The cause by saving money thinking it would get me by.

Thankfully this major trauma had...

Silent empty train,
Lush warm body presses mine
Slow down or derail

Eyelashes flutter
Blue eyes flash intense passion
Too late now, no brakes

No Brakes.

Accelerating at a faster and faster pace
All down hill without a brake
For I have lost control
Feel no longer human
Only smothering consuming darkness
And biting bitter cold

For I lingered in limbo 
Alone
For much too long
I was never weak
But strong
I pushed myself too far
Just too many wounds...

Ahhhh….Here’s a wound to mend
Ahhhh….Please, put my mind at ease
Ahhhh….You don’t see me, nearing my end…
Ahhhh….Nearing my end…(you’re left without a clue)
Pre-chorus #2: You turned out to be so mean…you were so heartless… (you 
make me feel like nothin’…make me feel like someone…somethin’ – your...

In a world that is just Go, Go, Go
sometimes I have to yell "Slow, Slow, Slow"
A sunrise is slow, so is the sunset
for everyone rushing you should let,
the colors trap you like a fish in a net.

Today youth wants age, and Age wants youth
Look All...

She jumped on my hand.

She slammed her foot on my head.

I decided to retaliate,

So now she is…..

I think of you
in starry nights,
and if the last train passes,
I will wait.
And even in the darkest night
is somewhere
light, 
not only shade.


Memories will sometimes fade,
but will not die.
And when the night has come,
your dreams will bring them back
and let them fly.


When daylight breaks,
the early morning...

Eighteen and feline lean 
Headed for all those places I've never seen 
As I hit the road with a big grin 
Setting out so I will win
In a place, I have never been 
I must not be late 
I have a job that awaits
 
After...
