Long Tainting Poems

London fog, harshly early with strained warning,
Looms all over the image of the hectic city
There’s the smell of mists and the taste of
Frozen rain gathered before dawn.
Pulses brake and start,
And lungs are besieged by distilled...

I’m new to ‘self directed study,’ it’s a construction I’ve never known. It’s kind of a faustian bargain that resembles another self-paced activity—treading water. The program’s like an immersive plunge in deep, choppy, informational seas.

I’m a boy living in a country where
We get emotional over every government move
And every government move is chartered over our emotions
Emotions are chastised whether it or let be
One trying to correct the wrong,
But nay,...

OUR ABILITIES DISCOVERED

I beg  of the human race re. our effects on mother nature.

Help is what she needs, her abilities slighted
Atrocities committed by man impeding her adventure.
Verily, all things are so bad, and must...

Mountains mourn a mildew. Such a deity of prowess. What a cumbersome lot those pickles. And oh look there, a pretty formation of moths in a tree. Thunderbeds are ghosts. And who would count the...

She said
“We are slowly and always eroding
As we lose more and more
By little bits and little bits they fall
They are falling 
Prey to the fading and wasting away
Of the nameless one and all his dark...

It stands alone four square, white-washed straw-thatched, 
small window panes, black frames, and out back chickens hatched, 
pecking weedy ground around a single willow.
Set just a little back from single country lane, 
high-hedged between the...

Your Elysian Killing Fields-
Your soul, my Love,
is the pristine gilded white,
that cascades down from Heaven's summit.
A river that fills me, a dry riverbed,
with your milk and honey.
Your current carrying me along,
to your eternity.
Eternally, flowing along,
your...

The man wandered through the lonely and desolate earth.  Suffering a tribulation 
of exile from human relationships.  He was the last one, the only one, the only 
man left on Gaia.  Walking,...

I'm alone in a crowded room
 Mentally in a world of darkness
 Consumed by sadness
 Living a life of loneliness.
 Why was I chosen?
 What did you see in me?
 I loved you and trusted...

Thanks;
it's been quite a year,
it flew on by.

Now it's that time again;
...to show our appreciation.

So...thanks;
thanks for nothing, that is.

Thanks for the food that disappears tomorrow,
thanks for the poverty and all the sorrow.
Thanks for making my...

I look in the mirror and I lock eyes with a vile wretch
The physical embodiment of mankinds ugliest stares back
Peering into a window I catch a glimpse of every imperfection buried deep within my soul

And sadness reigns
Though never ordained
from the simple truth
Billowing joy
Subverting bliss
Standards too ephemeral
To lobby the naked
wishes we hold
Desperately close
To our heart
And sadness reigns
Our heart
once whole
Sputter and mends
And beats eternally
No matter the blood
No blood the matter
It seeks,...

For I find the rest are not worthy of love.

Pandora’s Box

I don’t know who she was,
What she did or how she did it,
And maybe as the first it was sublime
Or maybe she was just another woman...

Dear heart,
Please stop beating your rhythm of love,
It's not healthy to my sanity. 
The luster of lies you believe,
Will slowly eat you alive.
Bleed and let go,
Shatter and break for in the morning,
Band aids will heal...

The fire in your eyes, 
scorches my soul,
burning with an intensity,
leaving me to hunger for more.

I try to avoid your gaze, 
wanting to ignore your magnificence.
My self-control disappears,
as desire consumes me,
persuading my eyes to linger,
upon...

A single word was all it took
To shatter my resolve and make me open a door
A single word I could only hear
Because I've been popping placebos for months

Blocked from your voice, but not your words

The battle of the heart ablaze with fire,
The battle for the soul still yet to come,
Who could foresee the things that would transpire?
Who could foretell which side there would have won?
When all was still, though...
