Gender Dysphoria
Faulty biology adds a perfect suffering
Tears in my throat leave me weakly stuttering
Fear, pain, and angst leaves my body cold and shuddering
Dark thoughts make me unconscious, slumbering
I ask about your day and leave your soul merely ignored
A lack of words, useless screams onto the lord
Of...

Dismantling Dysphoria -New Blood Synthesis
Dismantling Dysphoria -New blood synthesis


All colours evaporated, vitality ceased
Deep agony! Topsy-turvy my life turned 
An inferno of grief engulfed my heart
Surged to the top, pain of bereavement
No panacea, no potions to douse...
Alone she left me n' set sail to heavenly abode.
My life, my wife, my...

Dysphoria - Mourning
Passions from expression prohibited
Floods an entire being
As arms ache from longing
To nurture, to shelter, to embrace
What on this bed cannot lie
And what in this house cannot live
Anymore.
In lieu a distant view
Suffices to nourish
A parched heart's thirst, 
And dreams of what cannot be
Invades unguarded moments, 
While...

Premium Member Dystopia Dysphoria
Made In America
Is a fable
By foreign companies
For
Gullible patrons
Who love
To call themselves
Patriots

Today a key
To unlock the apartment
Tomorrow
It will be
Your debit card
And
A credit score
Will float over your head

Kids go to school
Not in the latest fashion
Nor
Do they wear uniforms
No
School kids
Today they wear
Bullet-proof vests

No healthcare for all
But war! 
War...

Dysphoria
Have you ever woken up asking "whats the point" 
Tired of daily life
Desperate for a change
Music doesn't seem to please anymore
Nights when sleep seems tiresome 
Days that seem to never end
I just need a switch
Not necessarily something major
People's questions hit my ear drums exasperatedly
I have...

Dysphoria
Where did I run off to? 

The skin crawls. 
The eyes see but do not observe. 
The ears hear but tune out, as I try to tune in. 
Here I remember thoughts that once felt like a plague; 
How can I be a better person...

Dysphoria
i can never be myself
skin stretching around fat around tissue around blood around bones
pushing through, spreading out, im aching
but never breaking through 
i never wanted any attention 
never wanted to be visible at all
i can never be myself 
sturdy muscle collapsing in on itself
what good...

Gender Dysphoria
The person you are inside,
Your real self, your personality,
Is not who you look like on the outside
You are not show in reality
Body and mind are not one,
Two different things apart
You are now done
With being split in part
Between what is shown
And what is you really
The body...

Dysphoria
That damned thing between the walls
that stares and stares all day long,
A ghost, a ghoul, something fowl,
You can tell from how it scowls,
It whispers truths I wished denied,
its body clad head to toe in lies,
I cannot shake the cursed eyes,
which stalk me still through day...

Miracle Man

Due to lifely issues, numbering a bunch,
quality of life has taken a different track.
Today, Dysphoria is eating my lunch,
and readies itself to pop the sack.

There's a constant drone in the back of my head
Hide them

A constant drone that turns my vision red
Hide them

I'm Sick of Life On a Timer
I'm sick of living my life on a timer
It restarts daily, but it ticks forevermore
There's only one solution to the timer
But it's not available to me

They can't see why I hate the timer
They think the time on it is enough

Sometimes they ask why I need...

Premium Member What Is a Woman?
It’s 2023 and the world wants to know
‘What is a woman?’

Apparently now all it takes is call yourself one
and, poof, you are.

Which means we have finally arrived
in the post-modern nightmare of objectiveless fantasy.

In this fantasy definitions and identities 
are as fluid as genders.

Fee, I want...

Coming Out
Fluttering Blue Banners
Pink & White long behind
Hidden under the tiles, an adder
Teeth sharp as rock we’ll surely find

Large smiles and new energy
So young blooms breathe fresh air
Into lungs defeated by entropy
Feeding grins once diminished by a glare

How music lulls us sweetly 
In morning, in night,...
