Disruptive through winds of change.

No love, no woman, nobody, just the virtual life. Best choice

...in my desolate room

no lights

no music

just anger

disgust

hate

distaste for life

but the joy of living 

is only felt

when i kill

and i feel better

i am loved,

....Evil

A wormy apple bruised
bread crawling with weevils
Mottled black and blue
Essences of evil
Skull and crossbones warn

Tortured cries and moans
Creepy sutured mask

Premium MemberFacing Life's Crises

...Have we embarked a Ship of Fools
By forsaking the Golden Rule?
And, have we formed a neutral state
Sitting astride the Fence of Fate?

Our devalued civility,
Desensitized humanity,

This world is backwards

...This world is backwards 
Yes insanity is real
Desensitized from birth
But I can still feel.

Under the Firmament

...Under the firmament 
Vying  to escape the dome  of purgatory 
A trap which seems permanent 
Filled with negative energy and pain
Stuck on a plain 
That plays tricks on the brain 
Driving souls ...

shots broke the peace of the Spring afternoon.
Within an instant chaos erupted,

bodies lying motion...

Desensitized

...I'm used and abused,
Discarded like garbage.
I must be insane.
I'm made to feel like scum,
Boy you do a good job of that.
I live in pain and misery,
Day in and Day out.
I've been betrayed,

Sometimes 
I wanted to lay low
Or get recognized
Stormy nights and days with rainbows
Was it all really like what is televised

Desensitized, Until I Met God

...Feeling everything at once,
And nothing at all.
Numb?
Maybe.
Just may be the medications,
My therapist says,
Meditation.
The answer,
The problem?
Is manic depression.
Some say disorder,

...Social media on fleek 
Prolific likes and praise we seek

Knowledge of 'SELF' is as distant as a stranger in the night
A nomad in a dark, desolate land so void of divine light
