She ponders at the sight
blue sky hazed over at noon
keeping Sun away
purple haze surrounds
lavandula sky dreaming …
playing hendrix tunes
lavandula...(common name lavender)
is a genus of 47 known species of
flowering plants in the mint family

Numbness.
Her body is full of sensations but none felt from her
skin. Burning deep in her veins, rotting from her heart
O U T W A R D S
Those words they whipped on her skin, etched in red lines,
red ink drips down, coating the floor in a bright paint.
He looks at her though a shade is over his eyes, hiding her pain as the drugs
take them to a new world.
His own body is a web of lies, spun to r4semble a friend, someone there to talk to.
His hand n hers is the only ting she can slightly feel,
the freezing of her finger tips.
Her veins cool down after sometime, and he starts to untangle, a wisp of smoke, causing her eyes to tear up as she watches the only person she could tell her thoughts to,
evaporate along with the high that came from the needle in her hand.
My Hazed Singapore!
My once gleaming and buzzing city
Now forlorn and glum
Relentless blaze and we keep mum
Hazy, crazy, why can’t I see
The silent intruder reminds me
How fragile life and existence can be
Gone the sunshine that sparrows once chirped
The smiles of flowers and trees usurped
Young and old huddling in on tasks
Strong and robust scurrying off in masks
Can we not check their insidious greed?
Let the long arms of the law act indeed!
--Mid*Night Purple Hazed,
Confusion Clouds Spin,
Mind In A Daze--
--Hands Cramp, Flow, Style
Bagged, Through Roughened Air,
Quarrels Ruby Red--
--Mouth Quit, No Words,
Come Out To Play,
Destined To Make My Fame--
The Gods have forsaken us
his dark servants keep us in a haze
in this forever darkness I cannot breathe
he is killing us
I can feel the chaos
and hear the death
He nears the Gods
to tell about life
his words fall on the Gods deaf ears
the angels are falling
from their burning haven
He returns
to an eternity of suffering
I felt him finally become part of
his own doing
this hell that he started and
could not fix
I fear my end is near
the haze is getting stronger
stronger
It hurts
I am fading
