Algebra makes me feel stupid. Equations and inequalities, algebra makes me feel stupid. I could have an A in the grade book, but that doesn't mean that I understand. lost in class, barely turned that in on time. Algebra makes me feel stupid. So I drift into my own world. But at least in my world, I'm not alone. Algebra makes...

Burnt Coffee
A nice, flushed feeling. Like someone is trying to break into the house. Then I laugh because they gave up as always! Drinking coffee to celebrate. Weeks later. It’s a little odd and spinning. I ate pasta and it continued to splatter everywhere on my shirt. Exciting. Putting the cup down. The desk where I should be doing...

Burnt Toast
What a peculiar smell The kitchen is burnt with the taste of raw chicken and rotten tomatoes Too many dead flies lay upon the window sill Waiting to be swept away with the closing of a curtain And in the middle of the garden Cucumbers grow from tops the soil under the tree Inhibited by the broken house Shelter to only faeries...

I enjoy the burn of the lighter's flame pushed by the wind. I enjoyed the burn of the one who had made me smitten again. I enjoyed it while it lasted, just like a cigarette. ...

To Heartache
You made those quiet tears fall from my eyes, No one around me, sadness intervened, As the burgundy sun clung to the eaves Like ice.Through my heartache, I watched a burnt Horizon paste darkness against the stars. A shard of nightfall, a hunter moon, floated Far past the clouds. I dreamt of death, my eyes Yearned for light, in...

In the cathedral of night, a new phantasm rises from the incense smoke of burnt rules, Altars of therapy crumble under the weight of our unspoken prayers, Our steps, like lost pilgrims, are swallowed by streets paved with tears of stars, Where locusts of prophecy weave their sonorous mantle in the temple of our weary ears. Silence suffocates us,...

The Burnt Molt of a Molten Phoenix' Rising
Its been a show of force since my ancestors first swam over the umbilical. A strain of Loathing rings in our ears, A dog-whistle held by my personal demon, it's engraved with my name. I smile when when the frequencies pain grazed my inner ear, and tickles my cerebellum in a way I'd deem inappropriate. It makes deaths...

Stained Heart
Snapped like a stick, all has sprung away, The bottled up visions just start to sway. Each person enters through the exit door, But they don't know what is in store. The unsettling feeling as ghosts glide by, Blood stains the wall where the bodies lie. Scrunched up fists, fight versus flee, Gloves stretched on with a smile of glee. Clothes stained with...

Burnt Earth and Frozen Hearths
The older I get, The more more I realize how meaningless to people In their mind, do I sit You can send them text after text Be it friends or family, It only burdens the one reaching out It makes my intentions feel like a wreck I know I may not be the smartest or most successful But I feel like my value...
