The Grim Reaper
The grim reaper eyes glow as the god you pray to. Fear tickles my feet as I sink into his arms. I feel at home. The Scythe sings a song of demise, so now I open my mouth and close my eyes. The imagery has appeared, a dark cloud of saddness is here. My eyes cry black liquid as my...

My skin has become like sandpaper Blotches showing up everywhere A pimple resides at the end of my nose Some areas have unwanted hair What 's happening to this body of mine Seems it's just about falling apart Ankles are swollen to twice their size Been expelling a whole lot of farts It's referred to as the ageing process Is this what's in store...

Premium Member Mister Death and Grim Reaper verses
When I saw the Grim Reaper pull out his peeper and pee on the patio, I yelled, "Hey Jack! Can't you use the facilities out back? That's what normal people do, you know. I always said I wasn't afraid of death, till one night, Death tried to rob me of my breath. And as I was gasping for air, he said with a...

The Grim
I seen it in the daylight. I seen it in the night. I seen it in the mirror And it gave me such a fright. In the shadows it travels; Unseen by others sight. I escaped it in a crash. I escaped it in a fight. But my heart began to fail And my fear began to hype. I ran, oh how I ran...

With an oar and a long boat Down river goes the deal maker, Ferrying another soul afloat ... For I am their taker ... Black cloak 'round my shoulder Two coins in my bony hand, I bring the younger or older Off to a more distant land Paddling waters, still and gray Done a million times or more, Candle and lantern to light my...

Chosen Undead
Endless steps upon the ashen path, Each footfall echoes in the aftermath. A world of shadows, fire long grown cold, Yet onward you walk, alone but bold. You rise from death, though hollowed inside, A soul once bright now seeks to hide. The weight of curses, the loss of light, Yet still you press on through the endless night. Memories fade, like whispers...

The Godlike Bliss
Dear Breath, will you truly forsake me? Dearest Death, will you be kind to me? My favourite Life, are you satisfied? My quintessential self, do you truly possess this demeanour? Temporary happiness is always godlike bliss, Permanence is a dutiful curse. The more I look for profound beauty, The more I go far away from my salient appetite. Karma never forgives anyone, Building a...

Grim Embrace
In the depths of her soul, she's yearning for touch, In a void of despair, where emotions are crushed. Once her fortress, her solace, her knight, Now distant, indifferent, cloaked in spite. He was her lifeline, her warmth, her reprieve, Now his absence leaves her with naught but to grieve. From tender embraces to harsh, cutting words, Her heart bears the scars,...

New Family
New Family You're born into your family; you don't get to pick. Sometimes it's tough; you and they don't always click. There are times when you feel like you're not heard, Walking on eggshells, careful with every word. But as you go through life, you find others just right, Friends who become your chosen family, holding you tight. The joy they bring...

Written: January 09, 2024 _____________________________________ Seen through a sepia scale Drab grief, of hiemal cradle mirthless, a desolate land shrouded in frozen doldrums, amid solemn ripples on threnody and sizzle akin to a gentle sway with a oneiric, susurrous tambourine wave of yore rain whistles in tune of doodles in...
