Six Feet Under
A sweet pine tree scent grips the swift air
As the wind blows through my untrimmed hair
Tree’s leaves spring off limbs like suicide attempts
Never to hit the ground below, life held in contempt
Clouds scurry through the sky in search of its end
Birds, airplanes, and mountains its...

Six Feet Under
I am immune to the pain, the broken bones
He said he loves me
Yet he beats me
“Babes mi promise … mi nah guh hit yuh again…mi love yuh”…words with no meaning
I try to leave him but he finds me …I can’t hide
My battered body
My scarred face

dead in the ocean with a broken neck ~ a fledgling chick hits the deck 

dragged down below the waves ~ can angelfish fathom a watery grave

Six Feet Under
Locked up in a hotel 
stronghold, dog leash
dog pound 
every nook and cranny downtown 
don't high tale it to the gutter 
six feet under in the ground...

Six Feet Under
Under the blue sky 
A fainted love rest 
The nature’s shade of leaves
A dark place inside
A light heart prevails
Cursed it was on 
The day of his existence
Thy shall remain a cursed 
And never be free
 An angle she was 
Within the curse 
She made him...

Six Feet Under
Six feet under 
No one even cares 
Six feet under 
No one knows you there
Six feet under 
From head to toe 
Six feet under 
Lays another john doe
Six feet under
It’s a disgrace 
Six feet under
No name in this place
Six feet under
Another flower bed
Six feet under
No...

Six Feet Under
Day by day
I dare not say
On how it feels
To not say what needs to be spoken
So here is the token
For the gate
Sic feet under

I feel the feelings he feels
As I kneel above him
Trying to deal with the guilt
Of what they had done

It feels as though
The...

Six Feet Under
They placed you six feet deep,
under a mound of sacred earth.
One final sleep that we may weep,
and remember all your worth. 

That little garden you had grown,
I kept the lettuce leafy green.
Winds have blown on their own,
on those grassy hills unseen. 

The swing set you...

Six Feet Under
Fill my body full of toxins 
I’m all out of options
My heart will soften
Throw me in a coffin

Your knife will be the final blow
For me to go
I will die slow
Or maybe I will grow

From this experience
I will be victorious
I will prevail
I will not fail

I’m already...
