Premium MemberO, my country, devoured by the shadows of beasts weaving through the roots of time

O, my country, devoured by the shadows of beasts weaving through the roots of time,
On your white roads, leading to villages where sadness finds a home under roofs of silence,
With the beggar's sack hanging from the weary shoulders of clouds, carrying rains of memories,
Today, God wanders through you again, like a silent pilgrim seeking faith

Premium MemberDevoured by a Cat or Dog

Would you rather be devoured by a dog or a cat?
I had asked this of a meadow lark, a rodent, bacon and a bat.
The bacon was silent, but the other three quickly chimed in about this.
I don’t like it, said the rodent, when I am run down by that cat, Old Miss.

I do not want

Premium MemberDevoured In Hell--

Explicit lavender
Conscientious twine
Copic statically connected and combined

Kabbalistic socialist
Purple oranges
Holographic systematical images  launch

And just what does all of this mean
It could have been a radical nightmarish dream
For though it seems
My reality is impaired
Reasoning why I'm not going anywhere
 I just stand here and just stare
Pinching gnawing, burning itching, and scratching
 biting pain on my pangs

‘Devoured’

For I am the representation of the unknown.

I whence at the thought of human touch and flee at first glance.

I fly away in solitude and caw in the name of darkness.

For I am the madness in a poets line and the chaos that brings chills down your spine.

A lunatics binge is greener past the fringe

Your Heart No More, For the Dolls Have Devoured Your Soul

Your Heart No More, For The Dolls Have Devoured Your Soul

Your heart is like a fragment
broken into your soul.
There are no windows to escape, this big black dark hole
You slip down under
going further and further
All the happy parts of your 
life fade to black, and there is no more sun around you.
You lay there

Devoured By the Beast

Behind every great man is a great woman

behind every great man is a great woman
i'm a minute woman who only wanted
to make her man superior
but, fell short of his respect and love
never good enough to be his great woman

the unimportant one and the noble one
is incompatible, nothing glorious 
became of this two becoming as one
severed, never

Devoured

Bugs demolish my skin like the bark of a tree,
They burrow in, make their homes;
They’re using my own shell better than me.
I feel their will to live in each rough bite;
Not human, but hole-y nest of the termites.

I’ll allow them to use my body for their health,
Emotionally hollow, why not accept my true self?
Let my

Your an ice cream cone 
Delicately drizzling my brain, 
Sweetness, nutty , sugar-coated nothings;
Haha
You smile and never melt away
Your the sweetest words 
Never spoken ...
I'll crunch you in one moment,

pitch black,empty and quiet
Clouds the vision of perception
And liberates the sight of those who cannot see

Devoured ( Diminished Hexaverse )

Our hearts forever,
Captured in our heart,
Lifted in spirit,
Ravaged by desire,
Set upon a stage,

Feel our passion,
Stay to our course,
Rapture our souls,
Steal tenderly,

Our first kiss,
Lingering,
Internal,

Fever,
Devour,

Lust,

Devoured

I don't know how to abandon 
This maniacal world 
Where electric words stalk my nights, 
Devouring my mind. 

Volcanic images appear 
As uninvited guests, 
Wrestling atrophied concepts 
Into structured rhythm. 

Metaphors tease unrelenting 
As sounds tickle my heart, 
Disowning my need for respite 
From red saturation. 

Yet I feast upon each moment 
Of inspired reverie,

Devoured

She is yellow tonight, grinning 
as she reflects the day. Her breath 
Splashes against me, needles of silver 
Inject my skin. Casting shadows and trapping thought, 
in punctured sails. 
Petals dissolve; gather as pulp at the base 
Of my heart. Burgundy lines solid flesh. 
Empty beats crackle and echo through 
my hollow bones. Chalk that
