Frozen NooseAnxiety (The Worst Noose In Town)
-- like flooding waters, creeping in
I count 30, seconds, holding my breath again
Drowning in agitation, overwhelmed by fear
I try to hide the pressure in hopes I don't pass out
My pores are soaked, from all the perspiration
I feel...

What's In the NooseLong tennis matches stretch on and on for love of deuce,
While endless freight trains mercifully end with a little red caboose.
Domestic snits could be shortened dramatically with a fruit juice truce,
Though kids keep on playing 'Super Elite 4' when they might be watching

A Prayer For Bad NoosePrayer For Bad Noose
(The Goitre Psalm)
The Lord is my Shepherd
I shall not want a Swollen Neck
He Leads me to the BEST Physician
He Restores my Throat
He Leads me through the dangers of Surgery
for His Name’s Sake
Yeah, thou I work through the Shallowest of Breath,
I...

The NooseIt's the noose that is waiting for me.
Now the law is for all to abide.
I will hang from the old gallow tree.
It is murder they say, first degree.
So the judge summing up, will...

The Grass Is Greener Through the NooseDeep in the cave inside my heart
Is the place you'll never be
It's sealed and locked forever now
Because you threw away the key
You've stolen all my faith in life
And my ability to love
I have no big accomplishments
Or accolades to be proud of
Remember when we got ****-faced
and...

Check Once, Check NooseJust know there's someone out there
Who sees past all your demons
The ones who hope for leaving
your remorseful feelings
Dealing with that cold breath
From that dragon who's breathing, on you
Hangin' from the ceiling, like a neck
Check once, check noose
Loosen it, keep yourself from losin'...

Spare the Noose - Let One LiveSpare the noose - let one live!
Just moments and life's gone,
for the lives one hack
and for it never to come back!
Isn't justice flawed with 'glee' to adorn?
The noose has a strong say
and so do the bullet!
Can one take a call with ballet,
to snatch a beautiful...

NooseCrushes of old
Hop into my
Libido as if it were
Yesterday.
Digression is
Emersion into
Nostalgic consequence.
Ladled with
Subtleties preparing
For a lynching.

Mmms NooseMMM’s Noose
Up and down he did pace
Staring blankly into space
Overwhelmed by a world of trouble
With his life now bent double
By his hands, the noose he did make
Should he by the same hands, his life take?
Or, should he with hope, look unto life
And live again, for...

Let Slip the Nooseall Day's beauty resides
within the guise of pale & troubled eyes
how quietly she hides
& faces Night with glimmering hope
to seek new heights
& break the scope
of chaos' dangling rope...

The Velvet NooseI am a broken-winged dove
Held in a soft, black bag
Tied round with a velvet noose.
Reasoning with my sensibilities
He seeks to assure me
All will be well
If I simply stop struggling
And allow him to feed me
Soft, warm food
From his caring hand.
I am a rudderless vessel
Adrift on a...

Unrest of spirit churns behind thy door,
the sin interned therein is quarrelsome
No "witch" that thou hast burned serves to restore
the pitch that has upturned thy moral plumb
Forego thy demons, none would be found here
Such guile belies the pleasure of the young
Until thy trials should rise...
