Dear Depression
It would be nice, you know if you gave me a reason for your visits
Sometimes you pop in so randomly, like an outbreak of a deadly disease
I sometimes wonder where you picked up this boldness
This confidence to barge into someone’s mind without shame
Then remember, that it is I, master of hoarding that once let

Where do thoughts come from, these uninvited guests that silently creep into my mind like shadows?
Where do thoughts come from, these uninvited guests that silently creep into my mind like shadows?
Do they sneak from corners of my soul I dare not visit, dark and unknown places?
They sit in my mind like unwanted visitors, asking questions I cannot answer, rearranging the furniture of my peace,
Leaving before I notice what's missing, leaving

The creep-state'
It slithers and slides..' It hints and nudges..'
Derides! sheds skin. Confusing identity.'s
Yet some intently see ' in conundrums and
Delusions scattered seeds and such patterns
of un-reason.'

we creep toward the acacia trees
It’s silent on the savanna tonight
We creep toward the acacia trees
hoping to not see a lion or leopard
we have already been chased by wild dogs
the entire family is here, alert and aware
luckily we only need twenty minutes of sleep a day
this helps us survive

Creep
Take your corny line and throw it out
then think real hard what it’s about.
I’ve never liked you
or I’d invite you.
You’re creepy when you sneak about.

Sleep They Creep
Written By: D. Collins 1/21/24
If your eyes are closed, they creep up on you.
Totally exposed to the harm long, overdue.
Insomnia is what becomes your best friend.
Just make sure you're the last standing in the end.
Explosions from meth heads who live next door.
Guarantee's this OG ain't taking that no more.
If you sleep they creep with

November's Creep
November creeps along its arctic edge
Wild roses tense their petals in rebuke
They were warned when budding in October
Their loving sun would soon abandon them
Yet still they stand their faces turned full pink
As slowly buzzing bees sweet nectars seek
Last call amid the leafless prickly branches
The tenacity of life, lessons to teach
Soft petals dance with oak and

Fall Need Not Creep
No need to creep in surreptitiously
as if you were not longed for
You turtlenecks and warm wool socks
are dashing in or out of doors
Sensing that I'd tired of green
your refreshments I adore
Crisp burnt-orange and fiery red

The Creep Alias Harvey Specter
got what he wanted at my expense.
Said crack fast talking
hacker and scammer
pulled figurative wool over my eyes
going incognito and speaking a clipped
English mien his disguise.
He appeared (rather sounded) genuine
after yours truly experienced computer snafu
(the Macbook Pro essentially hogtied
courtesy virus that disabled any activity)
even turning the laptop off then on
only wrought frustration to boot.
An out of

Fear Is a Liar; Fear Is a Creep
Fear is a liar; fear is a creep.
It’s everywhere and on the news.
It comes in dreams when you’re asleep!
Fear only wants for you to lose.
Telling false tales, it comes to you.
Fear is a liar; fear is a creep.
It hates what is righteous and true,
and it can cut some people deep.
Fear is worse when it makes

Before
All those movie characters
Crying in the shower
Definitely staged
But guess not
Short fits of panic
Fizzing in the steam
My lifelike dreams
Scare me
Waking up
Between dreams
To realize
You were never there to begin with
Never there for me,
When I needed you most
Yet the warmth, the smell
Felt so
Seemed so real
It’s a shame
Your words were somewhat of comfort
And there were bejeweled moments
That I treasured
But

Dollhouse of the Creep
Two girls were in the country when they found
an eerie house with nothing else around.
They went inside and then knew right away
this was no house where they should ever stay.
Old, broken dolls were scattered everywhere.
But worse than that was what was living there.
It was a giant, ugly-looking man
who chased them while grunting. The poor girls
