Each year

By:

The Worst of Humankind - Part 2
Now you’re turning to the south
To save your battered face,
To claim some sort of victory
By flattening the place.

If soldiers cannot win your war
You’ll bomb and you will shell:
Blow everything to smithereens,
Turn towns to living hell.

Your...

Lifeblood of democracy hemorrhaging
ousting the "FAKE" president only recourse
to staunch impending grim demise,
since forefathers drafted

With each and every task
We feel the need to know why
Without reason and without rhyme
In every loss and every gain
Whether we're happy or in pain

Premium Member Seduction's Loss
I feel like I lost you yesterday.

Perhaps I overstepped
Some as-yet unestablished boundary
between Trust
and MisTrust

Between winning cooperation
and losing fear and anger
competing trepidations,

Like we tripped
over a fuzzy
dis-establishing line,
Unarticulated landmine
I am still not explicitly aware of
where, exactly,
it lies

We...

Sorry I did you wrong again,
Sorry I overstepped my line again,
Sorry I was even born, would you even mourn?
Sorry, for what I did wrong, for not being the perfect child,
I was only a child, no...

Such an overwhelming,heartwrenching disease
 from a baby,a parents pain,sheilded yet knotted inside

And just sit and watch for a while?

Marital Regrets Best Left Unkept
Through thick and thin those rules of a vow bent
It pricks within a bond never heaven sent
Numerous signs shown to eyes so love blind
A devious design should have been left behind

Boundaries we both set grossly...

Once again I have died for love
This corpse of a child has wept
Now all life has the depth of blood
And every boundary is overstepped

A dead end into the night
As shadows envelop my skin
And all subservient...

Nature's Poetess
As I chant my sisters' creed,
And forge my talisman,
I remember violent lullabies
That I still can't understand.
I say if these wilds could be controlled,
With wants to habilitate,
Than why on Earth would fractured souls
Still thrive to fornicate?
So...

Tell Me What You Really Think
You sat and looked at me as if,
I had lost my mind.
You told me I was crazy,
That I was unrefined.
The kind of life I offered
That you could not accept.
I think there’s just a few lines
