Moving Into a Haunted House

By Elton Camp

“It has to have a basement and two floors
If it was a Victorian,...

WHOLESOMENESS :

How bad this thing is,
For befriending colleagues he found in the office,
Who posited to have him dismissed.
In sheep cloaks they were his frenemies.
They all became very close,
Starts sharing personal life goals. 
Showing themselves what...

They're watching us,
waiting for us to betray ourselves
and show them 
where our hollowness lies 
so that they might offer us 
something to fill 
or cure it.

They stalk us from every angle,
leaping from folds 
of our...

The voices came louder and clearer to 
Redefine the ideology of the world towards Africa.
The white took us to be monkeys, slaves and beast of burden,
They enslaved us and made us look worthless

My ego is a crippled creature,
A monstrous malingering monger of misery,
Shriveled, decrepit, it sits hunched between my heart and stomach,
A squat grey toad with bulbous dispirited eyes
Ugly, riddled with the cankerous sores of self loathing
It...

Eddie for short
Leaving you on my island home
Down in the tropics where it always shine
I left you to climb the heights alone
Time flew while I was gone
Yet many things have stayed the same
Stirring up memories...

Where have you been?
Reproached my muse,
Angel guardian of my body,
Majestic temple housing
My soul!

I retreated back
Back to myself
To my gloom,
My doom,
My disease, my despair,
My broods,
My negativity
My darkness,
Why, in there,
I shattered mirrors,
I tore up diaries,
I burned poems,

each hour I shall try to make peace 
with my past, with my battles, my loss and grief -
my soul shall still hope, though my smile’s stay...

STEEL LIES UPON
NON FORGIVEN
AN ENDING RESULT
OF HATRED WITH MADNESS
THE COLDNESS WITH SADNESS
REPROACHED ON EVERY ANGLE
A TORCH ALWAYS LIT
THE GRIN WENT IN
A PUNCHING BAG ONE BECOMES
UNTIL THEY HAVE WON
THE ANGER, THE SORROW
HOPING FOR A BETTER TOMORROW
THE...

The dragon hissed into the room
as I lie hidden in my niche.
Upon his back I saw his doom, 
there she sat, a beautiful witch.

She sang a song of mystic dreams
and becalmed the snake to sleep.

Many voices play in my head
trying to overcome what was declared;
knots of blaming words litter hazy thoughts
in cracks of evening as  I plead for silence.
But a litany of defenses grinds on 
as I blindly...

Loyalty symbols to one’s ancestors,
Who never saw yesterday’s asbestos, 
Heard not of China’s radio transistors,
Let alone U.S Trousers Investors…

Releases an historical message:
Their patrons Advertizing Passers-by, 
In robes they...
