Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 37
I heard two distinct voices in the night,
Conversing amongst themselves most eagerly
They whispered like children in excitement
Their sardonic mouths sung many savvy tunes
It was Death I could perceive, defending me,
And he, a strange, distant friend

Twisted Knickers-Collaboration Open to Poets
Some people wind up with twisted knickers
When they get insulted by nitpickers
Words are sticks and stones
Causing moans and groans
When they hear heckling whispers and snickers
Women used to call knickers 'underpants'
They'd get them twisted with tauntings...

The C Word
The words are dark, sharp,vicious, viscous.
The images like bubbling, darkest jam,
With bubble like grim faces riding to the surface
Then bursting.

I am a sad sack,
A pillow filled with rotten meat

Doom of Ancient Bloom
Oh, this impish ill!
this mystic flock of ever-roaming pain;
You now possess fully
my body and my life.
I am at your full attention and mercy;
Do you not rejoice?
Are you not overwhelmingly triumphant?
This very body that shamed kings...

Tears On Her Pillow - Continued From a Girl Named Sue
Tears for a Mother
Fears for a Father gone
Fate deals an unfair hand
The door to youthful joy closing
on adolescent shoulders imposing
grown up responsibilities instead
Eyes sadly deprived
See not the panorama

I'M Forever Dying
After laying,
my mother to rest,
in her bed of pine,
how I detest,
that she sleeps,
so deep,
so peacefully,
leaving me behind.
Her abuse stays,
like the sea's sand,
beneath my bare feet,
always irritating me.
I was...

Those Thoughts (Extended Version)
Nightmares, shame, and despair---
You don't go anywhere.
All alone in your mind
even with someone by your side.
You think, "Why can't everyone just leave me alone?"
You thought the hint would be cutting off the phone.
But everyone wants...
